Grafting seedlings on Schlumbergera 

Tried this method recently. Appears I have achieved about an 80% success rate. Thank you for sharing!

Great movie for grafting seedlings on Schlumbergera , thanks for sharing it

Very practical and ingenious. You should call this next "next generation grafting." You're previous videos inspired me to try grafting on the opuntia pads I had at my disposal, now I find out I could've avoided glochids! Thank you for creating your excellent and instructional videos.

A great practical solution to grafting seedlings. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.

Wow would be very excited to try this

this is impressive bravo! i m a subscriber for a few years now and want to thank you for sharing your experience and information cacti grafting is life !!!

Thank you Roberto Santos Kelso for ypur Spanish transscript!

Thank-you for this :)

This is so incredible. Thanks for sharing. When I have some more space & light I will be trying this for sure!

Fantastic!

Maravilhoso ☺☺

I have grafted red mihanovichii on epiphyllum many years ago and it still feels fine while parent plant died years ago.

Brilliant video and idea! Just have to bring myself to cut pieces from prized zygo now!

Well I guess its off to Home Depot to buy a Christmas cactus

Your video inspired me to also try this method, but I can't read the three cacti seeds you used. Could you tell me what seeds you used?

genial!!!!!

HI Firstly there appears to be no attempt to intersect the ring of vascular bundles, which is normally recommended for grafting cacti.? Am I missing something? Secondly can you let us know which/what hormones you are using in the cutting powder shown in the video? Cheers

Many fanks!

Thank you very much! But the growth seems slow for a few months compared to pereskiopsis, do you think it would be better to have larger cuttings of schlumbergera and root before grafting?

Great video ! I notice Schlumbergera seem to have a lot of variety. Schlumbergera i got from my local store has very small pad, very different from the one u use in this video. What is the variety you use ?

I had tried this morning, I hope it will be a success.

Works fine for winter grafting under fluorescent (led) lights. Have you tried grafting on Rhipsalidopsis?

I know that this is an old video but still very cool. Thanks! So do you still like this grafting rooting stock and method? Better than pereskiopsis? Which grows faster, bigger? How long you keep scions on or just keep them connected? I have lots of S.truncata vs pere so this would be great! Thanks again sir.

Excellent video. May I ask about your use of window cleaner to disinfect the blade? Is the alcohol content of that product sufficient?

I have a question. After seedlings attached to the Schlumberger pads, do I have to let it air dry out for a couples of hours before putting them in the humidity chamber? Also, do I need to leave the humidity chamber alone without opening it, or I have to open it to ventilate every day until a week? Thanks again! The reason I ask because I don’t want the new graft to be rot by the water evaporations inside the humidity chamber!

Just tested two grafting with melocactus seedlings. Let's see how it goes!

Why not root the cuttings before grafting the seedlings ?

Does it work with epiphyllums?

So I am reading about grafting recently and have already some growing Pereskiopsis for the stock. I will definitely look into the Schlumbergera too. I have a quesiton though. I read some articles where they mentioned that you can use grafting technique to speed up the growth and strength of seedling and later transplant it on its own. But I have not seen a single video or article about the steps what do avoid and how to determine if we can transplant the scion to the ground without the supporting stock. Can anybody point me to good resource ? Video of this quality would be amazing to fill the gaps, since I do not plan to keep the scion grafted for ever, especially with very fast growing Pereskiopsis. Thank you

After 1 week I'm supposed to let the wet box open? Or I spray them everyday and then close the box again?

What kind Schlumbergera? or variety. I want to try.

Hi. What are the advantages of this grafting stock besides opuntia pads ? I think opuntia pads can carry more weight and are more hardy. (opuntia compressa.)

What do you grow your seedlings in

Could you please show us one of your oldest graft with this stock?

Can I root what is left after grafting?

Christmas cactus plant is beautiful by nature @ Christmas & Easter so grafting is unnecessary.
