Thanks! Without yours and Mr. X's generosity I wouldn't have anything to post pictures of, so thank you! :)

Are you growing these grafts out doors Berenger?

Yup, they are still out in the sun. Don't know yet if I'll put them under the lamps over winter or let them hibernate.

These grafts on Selenicereus take quite a while to get going, but they don't usually stall like Peres grafts do for me after a while (my climate is not well suited for Pereskiopsis), and they retain a more 'natural' appearance, stronger spines, better colour etc.. But for now, these same plants grafted onto Pereskiopsis at the same time are at least 4 times bigger...

I can't wait to see your pictures of Werd Jessica, I don't have that one, but 3 different fruits from ABG.

Time for an update on the funds that were donated by the recipients of the slops auction............

Juan Carlos has now paid off 42% of his loan

Juan is from Ecuador and was loaned the funds raised by the slops auction. These funds were loaned through KIVA.

Juan has used the money to buy pigs to start a business.

The money that Juan has paid back has now been loaned to the following people from the following countries to also start or reinvigorate business interests so they can improve and enrich their own lives and their families and communities lives.

Lieus group - Vietnam - personal housing - fully funded

Duyens Group - Vietnam - raising pigs - fully funded

Cristian - Columbia - Agriculture - fully funded

Catalina - Bolivia - Clothing sales - fully funded

Jose O - El Salvador - Agriculture - fully funded

Carlos A - Clothing sales - Colombia - fully funded

David - Kenya - Farming - fully funded

EDIT - all the above have now been fully funded.

These are all basic interests that many of us take for granted.

https://www.kiva.org is a wonderful not for profit organisation that assists people who are less fortunate and empowers people to help themselves.

Have some spare cash? then log onto kiva, join the Ethnobotanical group and make a loan to someone who really needs it.

Just $25us will make a HUGE difference and the fantastic aspect of this is once the funds are paid back you will then be able to re lend them to others who greatly need it.

I like how fuzzy the werdermannius is. Olive, were you allowed to take pictures of the plants these seed came from? I'm unfamiliar with some of these cactus.

Sorry, I should have listed them, I thought I had mentioned it in an earlier post:

Psycho0 is In the front . They are starting to fall onto each other and need to be repotted, or maybe some sand.

Cordobensis is leftmost, in the rainbow swiss chard pot. its growing short and fat compared to the others with the most variance in spine color.

Goliath is in the back left, a few pure white seedlings from these, but they melted away after grafting.

Macro is back right. Mutant looking seedling is an optical illusion sadly. Though two seedlings are always a lime green color, even when the others are dark. So I'm guessing that's some form of variegation/albinism.

There's some cuzco around somewhere too... hoping for some wicked spines.

So five kinds. All new to me. :)

No pics of the plants the pods have come from Wocket.

Can tell you that they are big beutiful trichocereus that were sourced mainly from gardens in South Australia and from members on here, quite a few years ago now.

Thanks for listing their names man.

Pod 2 is coming soon, Mr X is kindly collecting the fruits off his plants again.

Wooooot.

I only noticed the other day that at the bottom of the werdermannianus pod 3 tray there were three variegated seedlings... Two completely yellow and one with a yellow stripe. The tops and tails were only grafted a few days ago so not much to show there yet. Has anyone else noted this with werd 3??

Here is a couple of shots of them before grafting.  Sorry about the rubbish shots lost my camera at christmas and as good as the phone is with general pics its absulute rubbish on close up / macros ... So i apologize.

A variegated werdermannianus should be pretty sexy dont ya think?

I received a bunch of Werd seed labeled ABG so I dont know which pod it was from, but I too noticed a lot of variegated seedlings.  In my garden its pretty much survival of the fittest as I dont do any grafting, so today theres only a few variegated left on their own roots, & they're kinda sun baked..... :)
