    Kali is shiva's opposite. She is necessary. She is the destroyer, but from her destruction Shiva creates anew. Solve et coagula in alchemical terms. You have to break a few eggs to make an omelette in the common parlance.

     

     

    Thanks for sheding some light on that. I used to live with a girl that got possesed by all kinds of spirits and personas. Ones she was riding my dick and got possesed by Kali. Had to break her eyebrow before she came back.

    Wow! Yeah, midjourneys a real great one. I only use Dall-E, not as photorealistic striking as midjourney but I like the way it handles structures like wood and makes strange misstakes. like builds all kinds of crazy things from scratch. 

     

    1. A hieronimus bosch painting depicting the history of mankind.

    2. A version of a photo of me standing in the woods on a burnt out scooter.

    3. A backstreet boys albumcover from the 50's (note the gayness)

    4. A salvador dali painting depicting the flintstones meeting the jetsons.

    5. The original photo for number 2.

    Actually, excuse my ignorance, but I don't even know what that means.

     

    Well, KK339 is a clone that's been propagated from cuttings of one unique individual trichocereus pachanoi in horticulture. KK338 has not to my knowledge been distributed as cutting material very widely and Karel Knižes' collection numbers often refers to different plants in a specific area and not material from one geneticaly identical clone. I've seen so many different seedgrown types of KK338, KK339 and KK242. In europe most of the KK242 are a type of very glaucous T. Cuzcoensis. 

     

    A very good idea to put together a list. Here are some clones circulating  europe, thought they might be available in Aus too?

     

    Trichocereus Pachanoi/Bridgesii "super silver blue form" a very glaucus thin pach/bridge cross sold as cuttings.

     

    Trichocereus Bridgesii "Hotel" Not very much info on this.

     

    Trichocereus Pachanoi "Kimnach"

     

    Trichocereus Pachanoi "Lima Flower Market" Collected by MT, maybe the same material as Ogun?

    Thanks! I have also been told it is Neoraimondia herzogiana?

    Yes a Neoraimondia, or Neocardenasia I believe is the new valid name. Probably Herzogiana but there are other species/subspecies of Neocardenasia that are quite similar. My only freak cactus ATM is a Herzogiana that grows into itself on one side cause the ribbs are growing at different pase. Then it shoots another arm that grows into itself. One arm only has 2 ribbs and grows in a spiral.

     

    Edit: Browsed the internet, it's a Herzogiana.

    Lophophora jourdaniana puts  out offsets in that manner. They also have rosepink flowers. Do the offsets have small spines that are barely visible? L.. Jourdaniana offsets less then caespitosa forms and the offsets and sometimes the main head have tiny spines under the whool. Could also be Fricii I think, the main head looks like those. Hard to tell...

    Well they could be both. 50/50 så I'd stick to the description. They are very overlaping, these two species, could  well be the same species (in some cases). And besides.... San Pedro and other names for these cacti are sometimes the same for many species of the trichocereus family in other parts of the world. 

     

    They are growing like crazy! Very good job raisingen them. By the way, I wouldnt agree with "true Pachs are always green". Many Pachanoi with that arkaic morphology of a "true pach". Ive had some that where blå or even silver. At a certain age many Pachs and other cacti get glaucus, a pale silverblue coating in varying degree. 

     

    Peace!

    what dyu reckon they might be? 

    there's a very "taquimby, yet fulvilanial" > feel about the spines in a way ...

     

    ...but then maybe some sort of pasacana hybridy type thing ???

     

    if they grow up to look like scops eventually ... will have been quite the interesting rollercoaster of features eh?

    Bump sort of... havent been around here for a while but rediscovered this thread after buying a couple of seedlings grown from Köhres scop seed of the very same batch i believe. Yes... very "taquimby" or nigripilus or something like that but still some scop features of the FR991 sort, pale yellow green ribs with that special bloated form. The vendor said "will loose their spines with age". Does anyone have any good pics of some older specimens of these seedgrown open pollinated köhres scops? And maybe I'll show mine ;)

     

    On the subject of t. Scopulicola; Truca, if you're reading this, the cuttings stolen from the garden in gothenburg where not Scops brought there by Linnaeus, but cereus hildemannianus brought there by him. So the mystery is still alive regarding the wild scops.

     

    Peace out y'all!

    let god define what god is to you. it struck me while reading the answers in this thread that theres still a lot of hippie-esoteric crap passing around. if I said god is Donald Trump on a sunday morning, then what is god? to you I mean. dont buy the whole book just cause of one seemingly fitting

    line matches the color of your ego. 

    to me, god is the silent force I dont always see but that always sees me. its vision is the synergistic view of every view. words dont make it, the tower of Babel has fallen so to speak.
