I fed Ixtlahuatl(loph tank) on a stealth plus a few ravenous trichos ... and took some piccies whilst the previously sleeping cretinaceousness struggled to get their lies i mean shit together to try and stop it but by that time it was all over... *sings whilst headbanging in victory* Dx! "hawitdawar shabangadang diggy diggy " ummm yeah so I finally got some roots on aPelecyphora, watered em in.. felt great! finally gna get to see how they feed... whew! later on that evening some coffeecame to the rescue also finally brung some squarepots to my rooftop pad so i can get rid of that ugly farkel of a round pot for once and for all. *emits blue light* 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love the way the spines return to chocolate when wet - may even oil em up one day with a toothbrush and maybe olive oil or something natural :3 and I'd love to see them flower one day ... and stick my ... in one.. which reminds me :, dyu think its ok or cool to start a new thread asking to see if anyone has pushed their dick in a tricho flower and was it worth the risk of gettn wang out near the spines and how it felt?... type thing. Thank you very kindly regarding the smellysyphilis assholiformis it's been a hairy few moths sorry its been a long day lol , maybe longer than i describe.. but yeah ..., i bought them as de-grafts in umm maybe october time? so its taken that long and i thought i might lose them so many times thru winter and spring [erk] especially that beauty that rooted... but fkn ayyyy! Dx! *does 80 backflips thru the woods n back* that one i believe is a reg pelecyphora aselliformis , my very fave kind with the really sexy armour ... rawrzzzz the others seem to look like some sort of monstruosity with extra fluffiness look and i saw some the same being ebaid in other parts of the world as pelecyph' asel' mons' and thats kinda the only thing that made me thnk "oh well thats what a monst' pele looks like then is it?" ummm yeah i think i was gna say more but i keep gettn checked by folk who work where im staying every damn five ,,, um srry for moaning but yeah frgot ... will add later if i recall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
