Hukstable Posted May 20, 2015 Hey Hukstable, your plant looks like it's the longer spined T. scopulicola form. Four ribs isn't unusual for the plant. My own had four ribs, but sadly switched to five last season. ~Michael~ I asked Prier if this plant was a scop x pach but he said that it was a pachanoi (woolunda monster pedro) that a friend had imported into australia in the early 90s. It looks like a long spine scop. Would be interesting to know where it came from. It is supposedly semi monstrose and morphs often. I hope it stays as 4 ribbed. Do you have any pics of yours?

Happyconcacti Posted May 20, 2015 T. scopulicola or cordobensis, not sure which. The grower calls it scopulicola, internet people suggest it may be cordobensis. Either way, it has 4 ribs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happyconcacti Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) MS Smith, Do you think the pictures of mine in this post are Scopulicola or cordobensis? What is/are the defining trait(s)? I'm USA based and all I know is that it came from a local grower who's been growing cacti for 30+ years. http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=40440&p=500828 I can take more pictures if necessary.

Strontium Dawg Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) The wee 4 winds scop. Kinda more like 4 gentle breezes at the moment. This thing is almost a cube. Edited May 29, 2015 by Glaukus 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebene Posted June 16, 2015 Don't know if this qualifies, but I have a small T. Pachanoi x T. Scopulicola growing which started off 6 ribs then became 4 as the weather cooled down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) yes please would love to see pics of trichos any day of the week :3 and @happyconcacti I dnno if MS Smith will agree with me but I reckon your cordobensis/scop looks like a super pedro (hybrid of scop/cordo and pachanoi) also, to the best of my knowledge; I would call the Oz scop clone cordobensis ... as far as i can tell they're both the same species and Oz ones are particularly fat.. never seen a scop so fat before owning an Oz one.. but then scops are pretty fat trichos anyway as far as I know. ..forgot to add my 4 winds pic... I'll add a super pedro, an Aus scop/cordo' too (which I am now able to do thanks to yet another legendary SABer), and a nice uk sourced (potentially of German origin) scop too sorry for pic qual , was a rush job .. will try get better ones on thurs cuz i only get 1 hour a week with the plants now till I move to a new pad. -edit- done count pachulicola and cordoblicola Edited June 30, 2015 by ☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebene Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) You can quite clearly see the point where it went from having six ribs to four. As I think I mentioned before I am barely even a novice as regards this sort of thing, but why does it suddenly change like that? Is it running out of nutrition or something? Another thing is, this little offshoot started off right at the base of the plant. Is that related to the ribs diverging from six to four. What's that all about?
