Thats pretty cool how much difference grafting can do, ive had a try at grafting a few of my lophs and so far 2 have taken and one looks like it's half on half off. How many buttons ended growing of the grafted loph if you don't mind me asking?

too many to count man. over tthe last few years i have removed around 10 or 20 pups from that plant. and it has around 10 pups on it right now. its just a pup producing machine

Awesome as, was wondering what to expect from my grafts once they start putting on growth.

Awesome. I love the hard grown look of own root but I love grafting. Prolly cuz I'm still so impatient. ;)

nice one! :)

many seed grown individuals of the same mother, show similar growth pattern, but there are huge exeptions.

some seed might be more uniform and true to type than other.

I got many dwarf peyote and some giant ones, and they all came from the same seed...

the small loph is in a far too large pot, and for this reason it would not grow fast either, because, fast dry wet cycles are needed to avoid root rot.

a large pot can't be watered often, otherwise one risks problems, imho.

anyway, you probably think, i'm splitting hairs here...

if one uses, clones of the same specimen and a more similar set up, the difference is a bit less.

anyway, it doesn't look like you grafted a dwarf and cultivated a giant on it's own roots, but it has happened...

nice pic. :wub:

thanks ph. yeah i have noticed some seed from the same fruits produce seedlings that are pretty much the same. but sometimes there can be big differences like these seedlings. all from the same mother and planted at the same time but check out the difference
