Went to a cactus grafting workshop with my wife - both our grafts took!

First time we tried it., but it seems to have gone well - looking forward to them growing quickly (the teacher said most people are really surprised at how fast grafted cacti grow).

Bonus: my dog going "can I eat these?":

Imagine early humans discover/invent grafting cacti. Maybe a caver got so frustrated stepping on one cactus and bumping into another so decided to chop the little one and stack it where all the other cacti can see.

Edit: excellent dog, congratulations on all of your happiness.

How exactly does someone identify that they could be interested in cactus grafting? How did you even find out that cactus grafting was a thing?

As long as you like cacti, you're bound to see a lot of grafted ones naturally I think - most stores that sell them have at least a couple.

As for the workshop, my wife randomly saw info about it on a random succulents website, and we decided to hive it a try. Turned out to be really fun! I'm actually on my way to get some more rootstock as I write this :)

At first glance I thought you grafted them on San Pedro cacti and i was wondering what you did with the cuttings 🍵😵‍💫🌈 lol
