SirLSD Posted April 13, 2007 thought id share a good pic of a cacti pupping from the root system when all the aeriols have been cut out. it was a loph grafted ontop of a geometrans that had the grafte removed. the base stock had no aeriols left and was left potted at the back of the garden. sometime later (6 months? 12 months? more?) it pupped so i dug it up for a look. red line shows where the cutting stops and the root systems starts. the new pup has come from way below where the cutting starts.

SaBReT00tH Posted April 16, 2007 that's awesome! My Macrogonus 'Bogan' is doing that now and still hasn't even developed any roots. It's pupping like that from the bottom of the cutting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
