Not sure on the 1st looks interesting though, 2nd is a scopulicola and 3rd is a pilocereus azureus.

#1 doesn't look like my similar sized Azureocereus.

I would say T. cuzco or another Trichocereus species.

IDs on the other 2 are correct.

Hi Mick, the Spination and the edges of the Ribs indicate Azureocereus Hertlingianus. It certainly looks a lot like some of the Trichs that are around and im far from being certain but i think its really an Azureocereus. bye EG

Yeah, #1 is Azureocereus hertlingianus, just a bit immature still.

Hey Centipede, would love to see your Azureocereus. It could be one of the other varieties that are around. Did you post a pic somewhere? bye Eg
