Yes it is possible to graft onto that new shoot, I assume you know how to do so and if you don't there's plenty of info on this website. My personal favorite grafting method is weights. Also just FYI the colored cacti grafts you buy usually have a life span of about 1-3 years...

Iv looked at yours more closely and I don't think that you have the same problem as me I'm almost positive that yours is simply damage to the plant if you separate the cacti then there is less of a chance for them to be damaged

Same here it seems to happen on the new growth and the spot starts red and then turns white. I'm testing mine so far iv come down to the conclusion that it is ether damage to the stem or some kind of bug

no its not a scale bug there is nothing to pick off

these are the pics

btw i do have seeds to swap with you as well

yes the red ones become the scars after a few days. what should i do to prevent this from happening in the futer?

are u willing to sell me these seeds and if so how would u give me the seeds and i the money cus i live in Israel

my epis are hybrids (flower during the day and arnt white) and they all polinate each other ithink because every year when they flower they all have fruit with seeds

so i have a few cacti that on the newest part of the growth appears a strange small red dot (randomly no pattern found) that will grow in size untill it reaches about a cm in diameter then stops and terns white it dosnt do anything to the cacti it just disfigures them and is super annoying ](*,) any...

I was wondering if I should buy the Pereskiopsis-spathulata from eBay is this a good idea

Thanks

im tying to upload a pic but i keep getting this error: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4896 bytes) in /home/daiv/public_html/forum/includes/functions_upload.php on line 112

its not a m. geometrizans that im sure of it looks very differnt

but then again if its a hybrid then it wont look exactly like the E. Spachianus

im not 100 percent sure thet it is E. Spachianus it looks different i will add three pics taken from differnt angles the cactus is 24 cm high and 7 cm wide oh also the cactus grows the flower at the very beginning of summer/end of spring
