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?”: dog tax

    Basically you cut the top off the base cactus (rootstock), then cut off a part of the one you want to graft on top(scion), place it properly (there’s a bit of a trick to it), secure it with a bandage or some rubber bands and wait for about a week until they fuse.

    That’s basically it - it really is pretty simple as long as you know what you’re doing.
