Yeah please plant them out and take some photos of the new growth.

I have a hunch that for at least a little while it will revert to immature form and we might see what it looked like when it was younger (hopefully to ID it better).

Again, nice plant!

My guess is a peruvianus of some sort, it's too disimilar to the trichocereus knuthianus that's around town. Best bet as has already been suggested is to plant them out and grow them for a while and see how they go.

Some input from some of the more experienced collectors might be helpful. Peace.

I'll put money on it being a KK242/cuzcoensis, the lick test leads to this conclusion as well. Mine started of as a similar looking bumpy cutting.

I'm with strangebrew about it being the KK242/cuzcoensis sort.
