Thelema Posted March 13, 2004 I dont know how rare these are really, one of my new pups is a 4-sided pedro. Will it change as it gets older? I hope not. Ill try and get my hands on a digital camera if anyone's interested and take a photo. Also, is there anyway of mass propogating it preserving its 4-sidedness?

Torsten Posted March 16, 2004 rare in most places apparently, but certainly not rare at SAB. we get them all the time and I am sure it has something to do with putting cuttings in pots that are too small. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kitty Posted March 16, 2004 I remember a thread at spiritplants a while back talking about pedros going from 4-sided to 3-sided and vice versa depending on the amount of water they soak up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M S Smith Posted March 16, 2004 I have never heard of a Trichocereus that ever had three sides. Four sides is quite uncommon for T. pachanoi, but is a slightly less than regular phenomena in T. bridgesii and T. scopulicola. I haven't noticed any way to regulate four rib growth in T. pachanoi. ~Michael~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
