1. Grafting timeThe most suitable time for Christmas cactus grafting is generally from May to October in the south and from May to September in the north. The temperature during grafting should be maintained at 20-25℃, which can promote healing of the grafted site and thus increase the survival rate. 2. Grafting method1. Choose the rootstock: You can choose cactus as the rootstock for grafting Christmas cactus, but it is better to use Opuntia paniculata. It has great supporting capacity and can hang down naturally after grafting. 2. Handling the scion: When grafting, you can use a sharp knife. First, cut both sides of the bottom section of the scion into a duckbill shape. It is best to cut it in one go to increase the survival rate. Use a knife to cut the top of the rootstock. The blade should preferably be larger than the cut surface of the scion. 3. Grafting: After preparing the scion and rootstock, insert the scion into the wound of the rootstock and fix it with your hands for a while. Thread the cactus and the thorns horizontally to connect it together, or you can use a tool to fix it. 4. Grafting maintenance: After grafting, place it in a cool and ventilated place, avoid rain, and do not water the joints when watering. It will usually survive in 20-30 days. |
