Can you order cacti online?

I've been thinking about growing some cacti. I wanna find a place to get some peyote pups (totally legal here) and graft them onto that one that's hard to spell, pereskopsis (?). Even growing some san pedro would be dope. I bet they need a lot of sun though. I'm really into the idea of grafting though I think that would be awesome.

See I mean I knew that. But I was just thinking that it must kill them. Like how do they stay alive on their travels? I guess that's my real question, i already knew you could order online. You can order anything online. ANYTHING!

Cacti are tough organisms. As long as they are kept frost free and packaged well, they'll easily survive a couple of days in the mail.

That's pretty cool man. I guess that makes sense. Now I just gotta find a place to buy peyote pups. Any canadians who have a link on this feel free to send me a PM. Since this is legal here I don't think I'm breaking any rules, but if I am feel free to delete this post.

days? I heard a story of some guy keeping a san pedro cutting in a box in his closet(no sun, no soil, nothing) for a year. The cutting even started growing upwards towards a small crack of light. It was still green after that long.
Cacti are some tough plants.

I'm surprised more people don't get into growing them up here. Peyote's legal so like, why not. If you get into grafting too you can get a pretty good amount of peyote in a reasonable amount of time.
Can you get high just eating san pedro cacti? Or do you need to make it into tea? some guy told me you just make chips out of it and bake it in the oven for a bit and eat em.

Google Canada + peyote. The same guy in Ontario has been the main guy for years he should come up first in searches. I would do it for you but next you'll want me to wipe your ass.

Dude I think I found him. Do you have any experience with this? Can you take one plant and graft it so that it multiplies? Like look at this picture for instance:

Could I take each of those individual cactus looking things and graft them to a pereskiopsis and have it multiply? If i could do that I could reach exponential growth!

Welcome to your new addiction to cacti it is glorious. Grafting is the way to go also, though its easy to end up with a lot of everything.

Yes. You can even flat graft a single areole (spot where the fluff comes out of) to Pereskiopsis before it makes a pup.

I can order them online here too (NL). There is a place somewhere around Amsterdam with a whole greenhouse full of all the cacti you could ever want to trip on. I just ordered a Matucana Peruvian Torch of +35cm, a fat one. It's legal(-ish), as long as you don't put it black on white that they're for consumption.
These guys have such an abundance of cacti that I don't even feel like growing them myself. I can pick one up at any time. And they know their stuff! ... but I agree that it could be a kick to really do it yourself from start to finish Go for it!
Love, Hanz.

They'll be fine in the mail. I've got three Pedro cuttings that have been in a closet for like 5 months. Not only are they still green, but they tried to root and one of em has an albino pup thats nearly 6 inches long. So not only are they still alive, their still kicking ass.

Ebay has some good deals if you can find em and get lucky.
Check the marketplace too, I have been meaning to list some actually.

Don't some online dealers sell peyote seeds? I don't know if that's the type of cactus you're talking, lol, but cacti flower and produce seeds as far as I understand, just like most plants.

Yeah seeds are generally going to be the cheapest way to get started. Easy to import too.
