Anyone here successfully grafted a monti? Is it as simple as glueing a couple of different color montis on a disc and hoping for the best?

Not really grafting but my wife mage a pinwheel. Glued 4 pieces of cap on a rock and they all grew together in a swirl. It was cool. I'll look for some pics

I did try to glue 2 pieces of green and red monti together, but failed. As the green eventually took over the red monti and killed it ...

its usually the encrusting montis that you can get to do that, no the plating ones, but they have also been able to do the plating as well.

I grafted this one :)

I'm keeping the "how" part though... Best advice I can give is just experiment and prepare for tons and tons of dead montis.
