Currently in Portland Oregon but considering moving to Colorado with my plants. How is it growing there? What kind of greenhouse do you use and how do you heat it? What part of Colorado would be the best for growing? Etc! Thanks folks!

Successful B 🐉 timelapse pollen capture and new knowledge.

Beezlebubs420 who I never met, came through and gifted an awesome 30 min education on pollen and timing. Hope the next steps are as successful as this step.

JN99.3000m Marachanca Auction!! 🐳💎amazing uncirculated JN plant

Hello folks! Today I want to share the first piece of this JN99 from Josh Norsworthy. I personally feel it’s the nicest plant he’s ever released. I’m the dingus that bought it last year when he sold a small etiolated piece on Facebook for 400. I have made some grafts on relevant custard spachianus and will have more for sale in the future but I wanted to get it out there into the community so I wasn’t the only one sitting on it. Someone in the comments on FB called it “Wild Althea” and I can see it! Close together fluffy areoles but this one also has insane notches!

Sorry it cropped the first pic weird, hope everyone can click and expand

Piece is 4”, plenty for a tip graft and some slabs, maybe even a bottom puck

Auction starts at $10 to cover shipping

Auction ends Thursday 08/13 at 6 pm PST

5 dollar or more increments please

5 minute no snipe rule in effect (if a bid is placed within the last 5 minutes, an extra 5 minutes are added on to give others a chance to bid so that nobody can “snipe” the end. End time extends by 5 minutes each time another bid is placed within the extended time

Needs about a week to dry! Happy bidding!

Pic 1- piece for sale on the left and two pics from Josh

😎GIVEAWAY🌵/ Shameless plug Sundays😅

You thought I was done??? Let’s do another one!!

Here we have a grafters tip of seed grown Sharxx x Althea that I just degrafted from opuntia. Nice and notchy and plenty blue! It was micro grafted and really ballooned up on the opuntia. Surely could be rooted but would probably be better suited for a nice tip graft and a couple slabs.

Winner will be chosen TUESDAY at NOON PST (Pacific Standard Time) by random name generator. Cut today so will need about a week to dry.

For those of you that drink full spectrum tea from San Pedro, I want to hear about the qualitative differences you’ve noticed between species!

CSD pic for tax!

I have heard some people say Bridgesii is more stimulating compared to pachanoi or that peruvianus is nice and warm feeling. What’s your experience?? Tell me all about it! What’s your favorite species or clone to brew and why?
