I did ask the seller but have no reply yet and they already sent them I'll post some pics and any progress after they arrive, at least pics of the nuts but fingers crossed and wish hard.... so I have a bag of sphag hydrated with a little rain, then flattened to expel all the air, then I added liquid carbon to slay any thing that might have legs or require oxygen and it's sat waiting to be divided up into little bags for each seed that come's my way /uploads/emoticons/default_smile.png If there's anything else useful to know for growing/germinating them , I would be eternally grateful for any advice... also another seller I found called tropilab has been bouncing back my requests for a while with: "not available at the moment", "early next year", "too early still; wait 2 months" lol, and "not ready yet" ,... still pending my last attempt now... which is rather tiresome I flooded as much of the Amazon as I could with requests much like i did the rest of the world about Trichocereus validus.. but friends in Peruu said everyone sells it but it's never really it, and one's in Chile say they don't know the tree one's in Venezuela say too dangerous where they grow same story from Brazil, no reply on it from Nicaragua... only other person I spoke to in S.A about it was in Colombia and they didn't know the tree, only tree datura ...
