Prepared a timelapse for this super set of blooms on my oldest plant! Sourced from a nice old couple that had a stand growing up a rock wall by their pool. They were moving and needed a few of their plants rescued and relocated β¨
Listen, I know someone of you are gonna be like "oh, that's disrespectful to the cactus, how could you?" But hold on, just listen.... I don't care π€·π»ββοΈ
These are my cactuses. Mine. What I do to them should not affect the way you live your life or the way you feel about me as a person. Am I crazy? Oh yeah. Always. Am I crazy about the cactus? Not so much so that I won't do scientific experiments on them. I do it so you don't have to, or so you can try it if it's what you desire ππ½
If you hate this, that sucks, it's not gonna stop me from doing it again to fancier and fancier clones. Imagine a BD with 4 areoles at the top, you're telling me you wouldn't want to force a quadcot and possibly force 4 pups or better yet, a revert??
What I'm trying to say is, you can do whatever you want. You might go to jail, but you can do it ππ½
If you want to try this yourself, I'd recommend starting with PC or some mids you don't mind slicing up for science.
You can do it!
Have a good day π«Άπ½

It's definitely one of them. Scooped up all that sweet pollen to cross with a few TPM flowers comin in π«‘
Little FKJ loop for your good weekend vibes ππ½ππ½ππ½
A peaceful moment to relax to. The soothing sounds of a San Diego Sunset ππ½ the bustling city is winding down and pregaming before heading to 5th street in downtown to celebrate Labor Day weekend. Stay safe out there and you just lost The Game. Have a great weekend π

Super stoked on these crosses. It's a miracle I got any flowers at all, San Diego and other areas experienced a warmer winter than usual and a lot of my cactuses didn't get the cold like usual, so I think that's why only a handful flowered. Had most success with hand pollinating in the shade with flower bags, to not only keep the bees away as much as possible, but also ensure a successful pollination by allowing the flowers to stay open for as much time as they need. It worked π The Thelogonus x TPM and (ARB x VRG) x TPM have that TPM vigor of wanting to grow and germinated with the quickness. Same with the Red Torch x TPM. TPM was the bread winner here, at least a gram of pollen was collected to breed with these cactuses, and still about a half gram remains. I'm shooting for Echinopsis x TPM and vice versa. The TPM has about 6 flower buds emerging and I'm hopeful to produce some even sweeter crosses ππ½ππ½ππ½
Hope you get some freaks and/or something funky with colorful flowers π ππ½ππ½ππ½

Hoping this cool seed grown PUMPS and gets big, never seen it big before. Got another clone, Guru x Dino that's pumping on a Lophocereus Schottii and if I get a flower I'll cross with TPM ππ½ππ½
(Guru x Wairu) x (Vanna x Notch) = ?
A friend gave me 2ft of a fully variegated Pachanoi and some seedlings to graft. Been experimenting with uncommonly used graft stock like Pachycereus. It's juicy and sticky, I'd compare the flesh to opuntia with how it keeps the scion attached. The spines are a nuisance, however, as they hinder the blade from cutting evenly, in my experience.
Also using a 6" thick Huanucoensis as graft stock, should pump tf out of the scions.
Featuring traffic sounds, Steve's bark, and beautiful cactuses ππ½

P.S. this post will be 1/3 last sales posts of the year. I need to take a small hiatus and focus on myself, and build an army of rooted cuts to bless the community come springtime. If you've stopped by before and wanna trade or talk business, you know where to find me π
What do y'all think of this ad I made for a mystery box deal? I was gonna do it yesterday but uhhhh, what the hell? Somebody done called me a dingleberry and I say to you, "no, sir. I am not a dingleberry. A dingus, I am, but a dingleberry, I am not.
Thank you.
Took a couple days but I like how this turned out. One phone, different angles.

If you're able to move your flowering cacs to a shaded area, do so, the blooms will last a lot longer and if you're hand pollinating, will help keep bees away... sometimes...
