What do I do if I do not have another cactus stock to graft my moon cactus onto?

Question

I am new to the Moon Cactus and I am wondering if it is required to graft the cactus? If so how often?

Answer 1

If you have purchased a moon cactus, then you will already have the grafted rootstock. That is the green cactus on bottom.

If you would like to graft your own, then you can use a dragon fruit cactus as your rootstock.
