See what happens when they don't get enough light. This guy had to be kept on a porch last year and got skinny. This year he got the fat head!!! and threw a pup. I think this is just a mutt P. Torch. Would love an ID if anyone can tell. Madcap attached the following image(s): IMG_1754.JPG (2,575kb) downloaded 192 time(s).

West Coast Crafts pedro was pretty good. I decided to put 2 of the cuttings in the ground log style. They seem to be rooting pretty well too.

3 trichocereus cuzcoensis pups. Cutting this guy down was such a waste ( bought it as kk242 ). Ive read it makes for good grafting stock...so at least there are the pups. And a tip. sigh, It was soo big and pretty. I bet it would have flowered soon  Madcap attached the following image(s): IMG_1758.JPG (2,465kb) downloaded 184 time(s).All posts written by Madcap should be regarded as fiction.

Just wondering if the first photo (hybrid) is the same cacti in your avatar picture? If so, how long ago was your avatar photo taken? Beautiful friends you have there!

Thank you ! That is the same cactus from my avatar. I think I took the other pic a couple months ago. He had a major growth spurt. Other things have stalled out a bit. I mixed in some compost shortly after I took this batch of pictures. All posts written by Madcap should be regarded as fiction.

Madcap you have mad cactus cultivation skills. I love the fotos. I have a tall slender San Pedro that has been indoors it's entire life. Its about 4' tall. Can I just cut pieces off and plant them on their side like you did? Thanks for sharing? Ice House is an alter ego.

You can put them on their side, or stick them straight up in the ground. After you cut them, allow them to scab up for a couple weeks or more before you put then in soil. No water for a while. Until roots start o form. Could tak a couple months. Thanks or the compliment. I will put up more pics of the other guys soon. All posts written by Madcap should be regarded as fiction.

So how should they be stored while they are scabbing over? In light, in dark, warm, cool, humid, dry? In a cardboard box ar a bag? Does it matter what I cut it with? Ice House is an alter ego.
