gerbil Posted October 9, 2005 absolutely stunning ED, thanks for sharing. You can really see the bridgesii in it. Love the thick glaucous coat on the younger growth, amazing. She's around 15-20 years old? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mescalito Posted October 9, 2005 That's one chunky mofo Ed...gotsta get me one one day. I've been meaning to ask how common are glaucous Pachanois? I have a nice pale beauty that's prolly ~7 years old and has classic pach spination.She was trapped in a 6in pot until I found her last year but someone pinched all but 2ft. The lick test says she's bitter as. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reshroomED Posted October 11, 2005 Yeah, about 15yrs since I planted a cutting. Pics from '93 show about 2' high. There's a pachanois in the first two photo's (the 3-4 vertical limbs to the right). Just hit 'critical' root-mass and has started to boom. Typical pach-green in colour though. ed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2b Posted October 12, 2005 ps. still workoing out the new controls - why does my text default orange? Seems to me that it appears orange when you preview your post , but defaults to the usual color when you post. Glad to here from you ED i was wondering what you've been up to since EBA went down. By the way PM/phone me if you are still interested in those cuttings i mentioned , I've got a few well established and putting alot of spring groth that i need to move on or throw out. 2b Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
