First off, don’t report me for cactus abuse.

I had a San Pedro cutting that I rooted in this small pot a couple of years ago. I had a chaotic house move and a few other mad life changes that killed a lot of my cacti and etiolated others and I’m finally getting my shit together with them 😂😂

To cut to the chase.. what’s happening here? Montrose? Cresting? Is this random or has neglect caused it? Pretty cool looking though. Interested to see what it’ll grow into with some care.

Got some acanthocereus and potted them up 3 weeks ago. I pulled one to test and had nice 2" roots, gave them their first big water today, no idea how slow/fast the shoots grow, itll be fun anyway and no damn glochids 😉

This has become my favorite strain

Took me long enough to get to a point where I am finished enough to post it. I just added the corner post trim last weekend. Still need to run power out there and install some lights. I’ll seal around the top before it gets winter.

I’m very proud of the greenhouse I built, as I am a mechanic. Not a carpenter. I learned so much while doing this and have definitely gave myself more confidence in my building abilities. Had a fellow Redditer help me pick up those 14’ 6x6s and place them on top of the 6 6x6s I set in the ground, with 2 80lbs bags of concrete per pole. I didn’t want it to ever come up 😂

Greenhouse is 12x24 10’ on the high side and 8’ on the lower side. All polycarbonate panels on the roof and sides. Have 2 18” fans inside with a 24” exhaust fan on the high end. Have water piped inside. I made the “slab” by compressing 8 tons of road base inside those 2x6s around the base.

I, currently, live in a very dark apartment and the only window is north facing… so, I’ve been forced to have this online obsession manifest into… constantly hunting for them in the wild.

Here’s some I found recently that I could use some help IDing, if you don’t mind — and yes, I’ve checked the pinned post but still having trouble determining what type they are.

*and by hunting I just mean spotting… I’m not stealing them to keep trapped in a dark apartment with me or anything before people assume I’m poaching. I’m literally just trying to learn how to become good at a new hobby*

My top 5 are at the moment are BBG 48.1540, SASS, MT02, Olivia, TnT x Zelly 22 ( colored flower ).

I just wanted to say thank you to u/ki3verson for doing the epic giveaway on the r/sanpedrocactusforsale sub.

I won the giveaway, and was super happy to finally land myself a Bruce's dragon, the cactus god's have surely been good to me 😎. But when I opened the box yesterday, I had not only a Bruce's dragon cutting, but also a fatty TPM rooted tip cutting. This thing is gigantic, I can't believe he snuck that in there!

He also threw a bunch of different seeds into the box too! I was so blown away. Just wanted to say thanks to them and this community for being so cool. It's been a good journey growing cactus so far.

I always see the "what's your wishlist plants?"

Well this is the opposite. What's a plant you own, that you feel is super special and want to get people looking at it more?

First 2 pics are tidyflower. It's lj x tpmc imported from Bulgaria. It grows cresty and then throws really melty columns that have these clusters of drippy areoles that kind of look like flower clusters. It's super cool, I love the way the areoles look on larger growth.

Pic 3 and 4 is rainbow mountain. It's green, yellow, pink, and purple. Looks super awesome. One of my most colorful San Pedros. I love the different hues, and one day I hope to see more people with it!

This was actually the first cactus I got, that was last year November and I was thinking this thing has 0 areoles or spines so how is it going to pup, ever? Can they pup from the tip? So I started searching through the sub for a while and read of people who were trying to figure the same thing out but there were only theories about how they could have areoles underneath their skin, I only read that today and didn't notice how in the 2nd picture, taken in March, is that something poking out from underneath the skin close to the base on the left?? 1st photo was taken earlier today and when I checked, the skin looks like it's cracking and maybe like something pointy might be coming through soon. Let's keep our fingers crossed!!

Just wish it was a tad bigger. There’s a bunch of holes drilled in the bottom!

A loph is definitely going up there at some point 🤘🏾
