apothecary Posted October 25, 2006 :drool: :drool: Nice work as usual ferret. Probably a good idea to be digging them up later, they would start crowding each other quickly after developing large rootsystems in the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Genius Posted October 25, 2006 (edited) Ferret, very cool pictures! i had the same Problem this year. Moving the House took me about 2 months. I still have about 30 Boxes of Trichos standing in the old garden. Only thing i know for sure is that i never ever move again when i´m finished. Serious.

wisemonkey Posted October 25, 2006 Awesome job mate. I think one of those peruvianoids is the same as I got from a very old plant. Good to see you've been working hard. Its abugger renting with cactus that have to be repotted or planted everytime you move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bit Posted May 21, 2007 Holy hell.. fantastic collection!!! Wish I had somewhere like that to put them in the ground.... oh wait... I do.. but I'm too lazy when it comes to the thought of diggin em up :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dude Posted May 23, 2007 That's a very nice looking cactus garden ferret! question about the spacing, after a few years they'd get very crowded yah? do cacti have a tendency to naturally branch out? or does that usually happen after cutting sections to induce pupping? Anyhow cacti are very prickly i've noticed and the less handling the better, it's probably gonna be a headfuck to space them out again, but if you're ripping em out anyway is allgood. keep it up. shit i want to plant my cacti in the ground now! probably be a bit too late now though.
