hostilis, that is a awesome chimera you have there. I like the colours. Aztekium are very slow growers.. and rare!
I wonder if the chimera is a fast grower..

Hey DG and Hostillis. It has been a very long time since I posted here so I thought I would see if I still remembered my password. DG that is one cool green house you have got there.  Is it for your cacti or are you growing something else as a commercial venture. Cheers Got

Hey GOT, its my partners greenhouse, and cacti is a secondary bonus. It is getting better all the time, an amazing amount of work to create the perfect climate controlled 35x70' space

I figure it's about time to add a few of my cactus friends to this thread Pic 1 - most of my loph's, some young tricho's, as well as a couple of older tricho specimens prior to repotting in the background. Pic 2 & 3 - Young tricho's settling in to some new soil, and a couple of young Lophophora fricii in the corner. Pic 4 - T. bridgesii fma. monstrose with some nice developing pups. Pic 5 & 6 - Some of my older Lophophora williamsii specimens, and one Lophophora koehresii. Pic 7 - Decipiens?, var. texana, small mature williamsii, and a couple of caespitose willy's. Pic 8 - Lophophora williamsii, possibly a decipiens? Not sure at this point, but it is similar in appearance. Pic 9 - Lophophora williamsii, unsure of the clone. Visually similar to the "Kikko" clone, but not a Kikko. An interesting specimen nonetheless Pic 10 - Lophophora williamsii, "Kikko" clone. Pic 11 - One of my most treasured specimens: Lophophora williamsii cristata, grafted onto Trichocereus bridgesii. Will post a few pictures of my older trichocereus specimens some time soon!

nicechrisman wrote:HOLY SMOKES! Those are some GORGEOUS lophs. Thanks! I live in a climate with long cold winters, so they are just awakening from their winter resting period. Most of them are in the 4-6 cm diameter range, and the largest of the older specimens are around 7.5cm in diameter. Eventually, I would like to stress a few of them for an extended period in order to increase alkaloid content, then utilize them in a ceremony. But it is difficult to bring myself to harvest such beautiful lifeforms!
