1. How to graft cactus with fairy finger

1. Prepare the scion: prepare a pot of well-growing cactus, cut a semi-lignified branch from it, and cut off all the tender leaves on it as the scion. Then prepare a sharp knife and cut a cut on each side of the bottom of the scion to make it into a wedge shape. Be careful not to cut too deep when peeling, just enough to expose the white cambium layer.

2. Grafting: Prepare a pot of well-growing cactus as the rootstock. Use a knife to make a horizontal slanting cut inward above the cactus's areole. Then insert the prepared scion with the bottom facing down into the cut just made, and tie a rope around it to secure it.

3. Later maintenance: After grafting, place it in a warm place and keep it ventilated. Water it appropriately to keep the soil slightly moist, and after about 20 days, the scion will survive and start growing.
