Change Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Have you got any pictures of the mother plant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PositiveHAL Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 where will it pup from? i don't see any areoles.Is this the foreign clone or was it a graft that just grew long not intending to doubt you Tipz, just looking for a bit more info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tipz Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 The grey stuff on the base of the plant is where a little wet concrete splashed on it ( will wash straight off ). I probably should have spent the time to clean it up and phtograph it a little better.The things that could be done with this plant and the cactus porn thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tipz Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) The plant has no aeroles.Some sneaky bugger imported it from Italy from a well known EBAY dealer there a year or two ago. So no mother plant in my posession but 100% long form TBM.( I do not even know where these feckers pup from )It is the only one that I have and will be losing the genetics to whoever the winning bidder is Edited September 29, 2015 by tipz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtarman Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Just a heads up that the genus is spelled wrong on the ebay listing, so anybody searching for trichocereus probably won't find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe tissue culture can intervene? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( shit !!! it will not let me edit the title as there have allready been bids ) I am such a rookie Edited September 29, 2015 by tipz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theuserformallyknownasd00d Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 You'd really wanna hope it grew a spine or two! Good to see some top tipz cactus about again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Change Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Does anyone know if you remove all the areoles from a single tbm pup will is stretch out to look like the long form ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 sounds like an interesting experiment to perform Ill have to wait till next week tho, if i start now with the full moon in action, god knows how the results may be effected 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tipz Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) can anybody a little more savvy on Ebay tell me if there is anyway I can edit the title or change the listing to make it more visible for a search on trichocereus ?Anyway guys, I swear on all that is sacred to me that this is a long form TBM. Those that know me and my offerings here in the past can attest to me getting ahold of quite a few rarities and offering them up for sale - I did my homework on this one. The crooked growth at the tip of the penis has happened since I first recieved it. I am under the impression that it just keeps growing bigger and fatter but I do not have enough experience with this plant to be able to tell you how it pups or if it pups.now to make things worse... I just went to have a good look at the plant in question and since I have pulled it out of the ground and brought it inside the fucking thing has split right down the middle. A big gash around 8cm long. I can't sell the plant like this !!! Ill throw up a pic later- I need a beer Edited September 29, 2015 by tipz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BedOSpines Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Perhaps contact the bidder and end the auction then relist it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
at0m Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/editing-store-inventory.htmlNot sure if that helps. Really sucks about the splitting though PS: This is why you always setup alerts for misspellings ;) Typo bargains.

Change Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 i feel your pain mate nothing hurts more then waking up in the morning to find your penis has split 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tipz Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) There is more than one bidder. Ill research my options and have a think about it tomorrow.I did however notice a small areole with very small spines that was sitting just below the surface of where the soil was so I assume that is where it would pup from ? here is a shot of the meatus ( i love that word, lol ) Edited September 29, 2015 by tipz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
