Bubble wrap makes a good light shade cloth, though it does wear out quickly. -
Are My Cacti Trichocereus Friends Rootbound Here?
faslimy replied to taozen's topic in Cacti & Succulents
you have see through cups as pots and asking us if they are root bound?? heh just kidding, but it does look a bit slimy in there.. i don't know where you are but i'd repot them in spring for sure. -
not cactus but this book is full of beautiful water colour pictures
-
probably a Ferocactus, hard to tell how big it is from the picture but almost a meter tall i'd say. not sure the species
-
don't leave your greenhouse alone for too many days, bad things happen

T pachanoi Crestate and maybe a Trich

lol @ washing it. -
copyrighted hybrids lol

I have seen an indoor private collection that boasts an even larger T pasacana and Saguaro in Hunua

There isn't a lot of diversity as far as Trichocereus go and the owners don't seem too interested in pollinating them. The one odd plant we found appears to have grown by its own means.

lmao

Simplicity is underrated but in the realm of taxonomy I think it is boring and inept

did you just call John Cage lame?

nice garden bit the yellow one at 2 minutes, could that be a variegated bridgesii that may have come from me?

i really need that torrent, perhaps someone can put it in rar index and upload to megaupload or similar server?
-
i was thinking in the very long term and it depends on the cactus, and it is more of a hunch sorry
-
in the long term a tip is much better as the entire central column swells to support the size of the plant
-
it has been really favorable conditions for fungus/rot in melbourne recently, all my cuttings left outside have picked up spots. I think it will dry out soon and they should heal up fine by themselves, I would leave them be unless it starts getting worse over the next couple of weeks.

Yes, Parodia turecekiana, self fertile also
-
Pollinating Hoodia is a very involved and tricky task. When I grew Hoodia in NZ I let the flies come into the glasshouse and they pollinated the Hoodias. Always grew the seed in the same conditions as cactus seed: diffused light, approx 28C, humid, with cooler night temperatures. They're very fast growing.

Do you monitor the temperature?

stunning
