Pedropark Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) Field 2 is ready. Most of them zellys crosses. Lj x tpm in my hands. Plants on field one are doing good, ready for take off this season. Pic 3-5 Now we have more then 5000 in the ground and we will replant, sell, trade or share them step by step in the next years.

Inyan Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 This little Trichocereus scopulicola x Trichocereus terscheckii is quickly becoming one of my favorites. It is still very young yet and to be honest, I've neglected this one... still once I found her growing I had to water immediately and post.

That is an interesting plant, and flowering young too? Is HZ huarazensis? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many ribs does the plant have? Looks like 8. The plant is very fat compared to its height. The skin texture looks unique too. The plants i grow from this cross have all 5-6 ribs. Awesome plant. Best luck pollinating this jewel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been to long between posts. Love zellys work... Couple o variegates.. I know I'm necroing an old thread and whatnot but I just have to say holy titty sprinkles. I didn't even know cacti could come as yellow as you put in that post until just now. I thought it was a freak thing with patches or stripes here and there but those are straight up yellow like a pissed off banana. They are truly one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen so even though I'm really late to the party I just want to say thank you for sharing the pictures of them. I don't suppose I could peer pressure you into uploading a more recent pic or two of them though? I'm keen as mustard to see how they're looking these days though if they've gone back to green just tell me they died or something because like meeting your hero I don't want the dream shattered lol 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solipsis Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) Woow such great cacti, I love them! I have a bunch but they are still seedlings and I am first tackling the high evaporation rate in my apartment where I grow.. Say, which parents have a very high tendency to produce mutants? How does that work? (Apart from TPM) Could you tell me a little about VRG, and what about Bertha, Oscar, Olivia, hmm what else.. Cause I have an Olivia cross and I am not seeing any mutants afaik.. is it a particular interaction between two varieties mostly? And the mother contributes a little more by epigenetics? To be clear: these are incredible plants even when they are not mutants, but I have a fascination for weirdlings and the complexities of breeding plants and fungi. Also, I am a big scop lover, but I don't seem to be the only one! xD [ So much to learn from this amazing and famous cactus community :D ] Edited April 2, 2019 by Solipsis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimystic Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) I practically started over again All of my outdoor cacti poofed one year I had a house full of Zelly Crosses tho I think close to half those pots in the hoop house contain Zelly hybrids Seedlings galore too The seedlings to the left were the most neglected, obviously Close up Lumberjack x Juuls Beautiful prickly's too Edited October 22, 2019 by Optimystic Typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause I have an Olivia cross and I am not seeing any mutants afaik.. is it a particular interaction between two varieties mostly? And the mother contributes a little more by epigenetics? VRG started out as a big clump of red flowering grandiflorus with 2-3 stems only slightly variegated however when crossed with other trichs a full range of variegation can be seen..... such as mis-val (validus) x vrg to near 100% variegation scop x vrg aka Zelly Oscar consists of 4-5 stems of seed grown plants that can exhibit monstrous / crested genetics. Pics are all oscar mother plants, one of the completely spineless stems flowered this yr Olivia consists of a single stem with a few branches and doesn't exhibit any monstrous genetics Bertha is very similar in growth & looks to LumberJack although crosses both ways have been made... Imo certain hybrids when crossed with other hybrids or clones tend to occasionally produce variegated seedlings... for example the SS02xSS01 plant when crossed with LumberJack or Bertha or Icaros or (insert name) sometimes produces variegated seedlings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solipsis Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Thanks very much for the elaborate answer. It makes sense to me what you're saying and I heard 'rumored'.. I guess certain crosses just have a higher chance of having recessive genetics pop up or have a mutation on the alleles of both parents, disabling certain genes like those for pigments? I'm enjoying both the typicals and the mutants of your crosses. :D And I like the "Make your own Zelly" sentiment haha. Out of a previous sowing of 4 crosses I only had one crested Olivia x Clyde but I'll certainly take it. Something else I've heard is crosses of species or hybrids much less alike within the Trich complex can produce more weirdness. The variegation I've seen and am seeing from certain Echinopsis cv. "Orange California" crosses is pretty striking. How crazy do you think naming these coming generations will become and what would be a good strategy to prevent overly long names? To give each especially striking and unique microspecies a nickname and just not care / or codify the names of the ones that stand out less? Will it basically be like weed cultivars have gone crazy? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
