- Hi everyone!
In the second installment of this video series we dive into the practical element of de-grafting cacti from Pereskiopsis.
De-grafting from Pereskiopsis is by far the most challenging of all cactus de-grafts and requires particular attention to where and what you are cutting.
If you have not watched the first installment of this series I would recommend watching that first as this video will make more sense.
Please also keep in mind that de-grafting cacti does not guarantee success, sometimes they just don't make it.
There will of course be different opinions and thoughts on this subject as there is with all other elements of growing cacti, this is just the method that I use.
Hope you find the video useful, thank you for watching & of course........
HAPPY GARDENING!

dude “far out brussel sprout” made my entire day, great video!
Hi, thanks for sharing the video. My simple tip for removing pereskiopsis from deep inside of the scion is to use tools for food carving. You can find many different tools for different applications, including scooping out circular holes in plants flesh.
I went to a speciality cooking supplier yesterday and they had nothing and suggested a scalpel
@@OffGridInvestor Well, I highly doubt that you can buy it in any local store. You should look for Chinese tools for food carving.
This is a BRILLIANT video, I am always being asked how to de graft cacti and now I can send them to your videos, this was so helpful and very informative, thanks so much for sharing and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle XXXX
Thanks so much! De-grafting has always been the most requested video on my channel so I am glad to finally share it with everyone.... Wishing you all the best from Australia to the Emerald Isle .... Happy Gardening!
This is true, when you de-graft from pereskiopsis leave the foundation of the scion on the pereskiopsis, it wil shoot pups!
I messaged you a few weeks ago on ebay and you sent me 5 pereskiopsis which have sibce started sprouting leaves. I remember you said you no longer use it. I can see why now. However I think they'll still be good for columnar cacti, because you can just cut higher with a knife until your past the union/graft joint. I will keep this in mind. Recently grafted 5 trichocereus to a montrose peruvian apple and wasn't sanitising the blade and a few of the trichos were rotting (hence the grafting). Then we had cold humid weather. The montrose has some rotting which I tried cleaning up today when I took all the tape off the grafts. They're all holding well but we will have to see about the rotting
Hey!
Glad they're growing well for you.
Peres is a fantastic stock, not much matches it for speed but it does have it's disadvantages.
De-grafting can be challenging but more so, I got sick and tired of it biting me! hahahaha
Very informative video Mr walker . Enjoyed watching 👍🌵👍
Thanks so much! Happy Gardening!
@@87walker Hey there, so I grafted a few lophophora cultivars onto pereskiopsis and came across your degrafting guide. I was wondering if you could comment on what the success rate is for re-rooting degrafts based on your experience. I am having second thoughts if maybe I should have used permanent stock for mine now. Thanks!
Nice video
thank you for new videos. stay healthy!
would love to see some ario de grafts when the time comes
There will not be an ariocarpus degrafting video for a very long time.
It is incredibly difficult and I do not have an acceptable method at this time, I am working on it though!
Happy Gardening!
Cheers.
nice knowledge, sir!! Thanks
Thanks for the video waiting for eps 3. Cheera
Thanks, that was really useful 👍
Thanks Carol .... Happy Gardening!
@@87walker hi,any interests in test full spectrum light grow light? I am Phyllis grow light company, we wanna sponsor free grow light for you to test,best for succulent growth!Could I get ur email, let’s talk details?
Hi, great learning from your videos and collections. The garden lime you are using, is it pulverized dust type or the prill/grainy type?
Can’t wait to try this on mine; hope they survive🌵
Best of luck! Happy Gardening!
Okay! I'm going to try it!!
Love your show ..
Hello.What is this powder?A root formation stimulator?Can I have an exact name?
Great work doc, very precise with the scalpel and very informational stuff here. I have 2 Astros that I have been itching to de-graft. Hopefully you’ll get Part 3 up before my growing season ends for the aftercare 😆 Did you get some chickens or am I hearing things??
Thanks Todd! Part 3 will be coming out very soon as the de-grafts are ready for their next step. I haven't got chickens but there are a lot of wild birds where I live and they make a lot of noise..... Thanks for watching & Happy Gardening!
Very cool to see!!
Great job bro 👍😊🌵
Glad you liked the video .... Happy Gardening!
Woah! The difference between seed-grown and grafted cacti! 😱 The grafted one reminded me of Popeye whenever he took spinach. 😂 How long does it take for a de-grafted cactus to look more normal comparative to its seed-grown counterpart? I will always prefer the look of a healthy seed grown cactus. Thank you for sharing generous info. 👍 Keep safe and well. 🙏
Great question! Usually within a season or two it will be difficult if not impossible to distinguish between grafted and seed grown plants, the issue with pereskiopsis is it's tendency to make scions pup prolifically which is unnatural looking for cacti that generally don't offset much (Lophophora is a perfect example) if you can reduce down to a single head then the drying and rooting process will help normalise the appearance due to moisture loss. Thanks for watching & Happy Gardening!
87walker i’ve seen some growers use Harrisia jusbertii for their stock. It looks a bit sturdier than the very thin Pereskiopsis. 😊 thank you for the generous info shared. 🥰
Hey how do you know if u removed all the pereskiopsis? Doesnt it look the same as the inside of the cacti? Also why doesnt sulfur work that well? Is it cuz its too acidic?
Would love to see how you grow your Pere so thick🤯 almost looks like quebentia
Lots of water and fertiliser.
Best degrafting video Ive seen. Im wondering though, if you did cut the plant in half to degraft, would the bottom half (still attached to the pere) rapidly grow several new heads that could easily be removed without worries of the pere being attached to them? Of course the top would be set back quite a bit, but not lost. Could be more productive in the long run, but hurt in the short term?
In theory yes that will work however the issue is that many cacti if cut in half to degraft will not survive the catastrophic moisture loss.
Perfectly fine practice for column cacti but globular (round) not so much.
what's the risk of not removing all the stock? i've rooted a lot of plants just cutting flush and they all seem to root fine.
Thanks for the information! What kind of rooting powder are you using. Thanks so much
Same question
Hello,
The powder I am using is shown in the last instalment of this series which is available now.
Happy Gardening!
hello! I've been loving your videos!
I'd love to see how to propagate a catus through the fuzzy flowers some of them have :)
thank you!
Nice and clear de grafting video. I am wondering though you said you did not want to use sulfur instead? thank you for your answer.
Desperately Hard to find pereskiopsis , what is the powder you dip the wound in? Interesting
Ur cool Ty
Will species like lapophora still develop healthy tap roots when grafted?
Hi, thanks for all your work with the plants and the channel.
Could you upload a review of your Cactus collection? Also are you planning to continue with old sections like Cactus spotloght? I understand that it's a lot of work but it's your work and experience it's really valueable.
Best.
Hi Miguel,
I have a few other video projects currently in production but would love to do another episode of Cactus Spotlight, that was a personal favourite of mine.
Thanks for watching & Happy Gardening!
Have you got a video on rooting degrafts?
Hello friends 😊
is it good to use cinnamon instead of the white stuff you dipped it in ?
I have seen the cinnamon debate circle the internet many times over the years.
I've never used it myself but if I were going to, I would use real cinnamon (ceylon) and not the stuff found in grocery stores.
The powder I use works well.
🌵😍❤️
What is the sand you poured?
Is there any downside to not removing all of the rootstock? Also is that a Turkey in the background?
Hello,
If the rootstock is not removed properly it can later rot and kill the plant (this has happened to me) also no turkey, there are a lot of wild birds where I live most likely would have been a cockatoo that you heard, they are very noisy. Thanks for watching & Happy Gardening!
Hey mate, once they are degrafted can you plant it straight away?
Hey,
No, they need to callous for many weeks, I do not plant until I see roots. Thanks for watching & Happy Gardening!
Nice vedio sir . Sir i want to know white powder u applying after cut what is it . Is it root harmons or fungicide 🙏
Hello,
The powder is garden lime it is used to help dry out the cut surface. No hormones or fungicide is in the powder.
Happy Gardening!
87walker thanks for ur reply sir
Rajdeep Singh hello my friend happy cactus growing indeed 👌❤️👍😊
87walker Hello sir Plzz make a vedio on next step. Like what kind of soil used for degraft and where to place this degraft pups and how much water etc. Please
Always enjoy your videos. I thought graft to grow faster, bigger, but then you separate all pups. I want the big clumps! Can we just degraft and replant. Is it a problem if we replant with little pereskiopsis attached? I guess it's the fast lazy way!!! Thanks.
Short stock method is widely used in the cactus community, I am not personally a fan of it but many do this succsfully.
Quite often my goal with grafting is to create a specimen piece that will eventually grow on own roots, too many pups (depending on variety) doesn't look natural.
hi, what is the name of the white chemical,thanks
The powder is garden lime, I think it is not available everywhere. If you can't find it, it is ok not to use anything. Just ensure good airflow and low humidity. Happy Gardening!
