Southern form LW? Something else?

Any opinions? I’m still a bit too new to see the subtle differences in some species.

Candace Montrese? Coco Owen’s?

Literally scrolling YT’s “Other videos” / Up Next which was all RPDR, until… I thought that bihh was Coco 😂 Please Coco if you’re on these subs, give us some Candace Owens camp.

Only in pots for a week, and I think I see my first flower!?! 🌺

First cactus, first flower. Super excited to see the flower morphology and get a good ID on specie!

My first babies!

Long time peyote lurker, sometime mushroom cultivator, and former cannabis grower.

Decided to acquire some Ehtsee babies after reading about some of the wild patches being recently poached - further endangering this awesome plant. Like so many things, cultivation in captivity may be the only thing to keep them from extinction.

I gather I should water once a week or less, mainly when they get a little squishy? Any other tips for the newb - things you wish you knew before you started?

I forgot to take a picture of the awesomely long double taproots on the two already in pots, bc I was so excited for my first set!

First Lophs. I recently read about the last known pre-contact native planted site that was plundered and poached, and unfortunately like many things, cultivation is probably the last hope for this natural wonder. So I’m in.

Purchased from a random Ehtsee seller with domestic shipping that seemed legit enough, so I suppose it’s a gamble of what Loph I have. Also assume they’re degrafts? But boy look at those pups! Overall very happy with this as a start. Hoping I have a green thumb for cacti. 🌵

It just let me extract my opponent’s mastered sprite AFTER we had won.

Also.. 4 new sprites in one match! This mornings spawn rate is crazy. Still no Grim. 😭

Hooray for an easy win. 2 kills to glory.

Especially after my trio left. And only had time for this one last game this morning.

My faith in humanity has been restored… kind of.

Everyone was on guard when I approached, but spam crouching did the trick this time. My trio had already left mid-game. Even then, we still had to defend against some sour puss players trying to shoot and turret us all.

Was pretty happy about this one. I knocked him and he healed in the friend circle right before this. 🤣

Just started flaking into this module that was still nearly 100% covered with cortex, save for a few heavily patinated areas. Any advice on removing the outer cortex?

This thing is hard as a rock! (lol) but seriously, the inside shatters like glass yet the outer cortex is so tough. Other than finding someone with a saw, bc I know no one, how would you all go about removing - especially that divoted portion?

I did set this one in the back of my oven and wrapped in foil for a few heat cycles (like - dinners lol). The flakes I’ve taken so far are gorgeously thin and long, but I’m running out of platforms that are low enough to hit the edge.

Edit: Nodule*

I’ve watched this several times and I still don’t know what happened. 😅

I frequently refer to my dad’s collection when sharing his hunting tips on this sub. Now here it is!

Pretty sure the larger three are hastalis, right? The one with the broken left corner (I dropped it as a kid 😭) has a nice back curve to it. And all three are razor sharp!
