  1. Interesting! Thanks for bearing with me with all my questions. I've just been extremely interested in learning more about scopulicola lately.

    Here are some pictures of my scopulicola cutting. It has tiny tiny tiny spines (virtually spineless from SS), but you can't really see them except for at the very tip. This was when I first got it. It's grown a few inches since.

    From what I understand there are a couple clones of (virtually) "spineless" scop floating around. One that has "belly button" areoles, a clone that has slightly indented areoles, and an exposed areole clone. I'm not sure if these are all the same clone grown in different conditions or just a bunch of different clones, but if we could get them bred together we could get some awesome plants.

    So who would be interested in the spineless scopulicola seed project? We could either trade cuttings or trade pollen of our scops and try to make some spineless seed. I don't have any flowering trichs yet, but I'm sure lots of you do.

    If any of you are interested I'd be down to facilitate it and possibly pay for some of the postage costs of pollen in exchange for a few seeds if successful.

  2. The reason why I say it's right side up is because of the "ribs" around the areoles. They're shaped like breasts. On my semi monstrose (melted wax) the round part of the "breasts" are down just like it is on yours. Also the spines are pointing down like on yours. But maybe it's a different clone, IDK.
