Hellonasty Posted April 10, 2010 I received these seeds late last year from strangebrew only got three come up and gafted one late January to Hylocereus. Here is the progress so far: And here is a nice looking Tricho I grew from seed and grafted to Pereskiopsis, it was degrafted at the beginning of this season. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strangebrew Posted April 10, 2010 Looking good nasty, that's some funky business happening right there. That bottom one is really nice too. What kind of seed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hellonasty Posted April 10, 2010 Yeah I think the monst has potential :)It will be interesting to see how it turns out. The seed was labeled T.Peruvianus possibly Icaro I can't remember. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PD. Posted April 10, 2010 Excellent work HN, isteresting to see if any more ppl got them to germ. Bootom one does look like an icaro, same blueing but not as heavy set in the spination as most of the lil ones ive grown. Well done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hellonasty Posted April 11, 2010 Thanks mate. The lack of spines in probably due to the graft ? Has anyone else had any luck with the Monstrosus seed ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiral Posted April 11, 2010 yep I have 3 seedlings and didn't think to graft mine but after seeing what you have accomplished I will be grafting mine next spring I think. absolutely beautiful work there Hellonasty....very very nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hellonasty Posted April 12, 2010 Thanks Chiral I have two more seedlings and I don't know whether to graft or grow them out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gerbil Posted April 12, 2010 the bottom one looks quite similar to one of the 'pachanoi' seed stock i've grown out, but yours looks like its got more of that tip clumpy ness the cuzco / peruvi can get, (or at least is at a stage where it looks like it's expressing that). Must update the 'pachnoi' seedling photos. Those graft seedlings look awesome, great work and nice hybrid SB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gerbil Posted May 20, 2010 cool man, should be a nice one when it grows, i'm of the double headed leaning at this stage. Good idea with the seperation, at first thought they were microscope slides, but realised it's cut up plastic, very cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
