Propogating cacti

My friend has published a "how-to" on rooting plants and it gave me the idea that I should share a "how-to" on rooting cacti.



Cut half a leaf from the plant





Dip in rooting compound




Place in potting mix with sand added.

Label

When it roots, it will start producing leaves on the sides of the old leaf.

Gradually repot to larger pots until you get to a 2 gallon pot. That should be as large as needed.
