slice Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) 2 growing conditions, 2 cacti... note the difference of the bottom part with markings (original cutting grown in North Africa) and compare it to new growth in a greenhouse in Europe.

Philocacti Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) This is the first trichocereus I've got and it's one of my favorites. It grows differently where I live as I never had these roundish ribs. I gave a cutting to a friend in California and it looks different than yours and mine........more bright green than both of ours. Here's a picture of it grafted to Stenocereus Edited February 9, 2015 by Philocacti 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philocacti Posted February 12, 2015 Nitrogen, all of the named clones and named hybrids , my monstrose forms,cristatas I possess came from you... for free. So I'm the one whwho's supposed to thank you. You're the man. It's an honor that you're growing this clone. I'm pretty sure it'll flower for you before it'll flower here in my environment. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Genius Posted June 14, 2015 Hey Ogun, I´ll add Philocactis clone to the database and I would love to use your pics too if that´s possible. So yeah, Please let me know if I can use them because I try to get as many pics of a clone as possible. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philocacti Posted June 14, 2015 Here are some pictures I've posted afew years back on the Nook I bought this one with this freaky kind of pupping. I don't know what caused it to pup this way, as this clone doesn't pup that often and when it does.... It's usually from the base 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) Sure EG . The other day I re-potted the mother, here it is with second generation pups...If you are wondering what are those scars, well the cutting grew to fast (to what it was used to) because of intense feeding and watering.

Philocacti Posted June 14, 2015 Wow man..that's impressive. What are the conditions you grow it in? I think it grows faster in partial shade, but currently I can't provide that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) Hey Philo, Its been in the green house with frequent nutrition & watering. I will probably leave one of those pups to help it out, old tissue is stressed. Before Spring I harvested 2 cuttings which are now rooted and growing. Edited June 15, 2015 by Ogun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highdesertcacti Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) i got both of these from seperate sources as 'colossus'. they look a little bit like y'all's zeus... what says the community?anyone ever heard of 'colossus'? im not even sure if these two are the same clone themselves :/ Edited October 1, 2015 by highdesertcacti 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highdesertcacti Posted October 1, 2015 so using google, everything i can find on colossus seems to be zelly's... mine doesnt look much like the pics of his at all. well im pretty sure its a trichocereus at least Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zed240 Posted October 2, 2015 Don't knoe too much about it as it's an American one, but I always drooled over Ressler's pics of his super fat colossus. Hopefully yours is the same clone. There are more pics of Ressler's floating around where you can see the whole of his plant. https://www.flickr.com/photos/wwwcolumnarcactuscom/8354541542 https://www.flickr.com/photos/wwwcolumnarcactuscom/8353480361/in/photostream/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
