Grafted some Ariocarpus

Post by sechjoh »

My sowing season started early this year, and I sowed some Ariocapus seeds from SuccSeed and all of the species germinated :D

However, I pulled some seedlings very early just to find out if it's difficult to graft very small seedlings :geek:

Graft King, that's a pretty big exaggeration :shock:

Thanks!

Yes, they just germinated and stand in the light a day or two before I grafted them :geek: I just tried on 3 seedlings and grafted them on Selenicereus. Well, I don't have so many stocks to try on :oops:

Christer, one question that might sound weird but I'll explain later: how old stock plants were?

I have a couple of selenicereus plants that I sowed this spring plus few cuttings I got from a friend. I cut few offsets but couldn't really see vascular ring. There was some tiny circle in the middle but I didn't dare to graft on that. I assumed they were too young to be good enough for grafting.
