Don’t worry if the ends look dry, that’s normal and helps prevent rot. Let the cuttings rest in a dry, shaded spot for 1–2 weeks to callous before planting in cactus soil. Avoid watering during this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Transplant Tips --\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 16px 0 6px 0;\"\u003eTransplant Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 10px 0;\"\u003ePlant nodes in a fast-draining blend with plenty of grit: pumice, perlite, coarse sand, or granite, with just a touch of organic matter.
