Cactus / one year old grafted scions

 I grafted 48 scions last year which were 24 ariocarpus fissuratus cv godzilla and 24 ariocarpus retusus v furfuraceus cv Suguri cauliflower.

Although I stopped watering in winter, the watering was restarted lately.

The photo is scions of A. fissuratus cv godzilla. They have started to regrow.
