Title: Grafting questions
Post by: SlowGrow on December 21, 2014, 05:33:07 PM
Hello everyone. Im wondering if it would be better to let the bridgessi's in the first two pics just continue trying to root in dry dirt, Or attempt my first grafts, and attach them to any of the PC's in the third pic. Is it just personal preference? Thanks for any info! - SlowGrow

I'd wait until they have roots and are growing on their own. Those cuttings have been off-roots for a while now and are pretty dry for using as scions.

Both the grafting stock and scions should be fairly firm, full of water, and plump. Dry grafts never seem to do as well.

Thanks for the info, I'll defiantly take note. I repotted back in dry soil, now waiting another month.

There wont be much of a benefit grafting those to the small PC plants in my opinion. I personally would just grow those plants on their own roots.

Well if its the size that makes the difference I also have this PC I picked up from home depot. But I think I will just stick to growing it on its own roots.
