I thought the cutting would be easy by its not so as I found a shaft from the stock which is pierced deep inside the scion.. I have tried to clean the sto...

Thank you for the quick answer

I need help to degraft these three plants. Can someone guide me to authentic youtube link or any other authentic source. I found some videos but those are of pereskiopsis as a stock however this one is some other stock.

I recently purchased this from online store. The base of the plant looks brown in color although it is not soft. Its now almost three weeks since this is potted however the brown color surrounding the base annoys me. Can someone suggest me if this is some disease or is it normal.
