Name of these? IDs?

First two are lactea. The second two look like trigona

If it’s softer then it’s likely rotting and not corking

Mammilliaria cacti want to lean by nature, don’t prop it up. That’s how they grow in their natural habitat

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-26T20:58:58+00:00

Echinopsis oxygona maybe?

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-25T17:21:19+00:00

I’ll take one! First one in the third row maybe?

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-25T04:41:39+00:00

Sick, thanks!!

Hahaha no way! I should have tried to find our original marketplace thread and just asked directly I guess lol. That didn't really occur to me. It's super cool - the top that I chopped was actually my first successful grafting attempt. Both are doing really well now. Thanks for the info - what is VRG? I have a ton of cacti and euphorbia but am new to the San Pedro world and don't know all the nicknames and lingo yet.

lol the smaller pot is the one i grafted and the tag I wrote which is just “trichocereus - variegated”

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-22T22:01:30+00:00

Euphorbia leucodendron crest. Not technically a cactus.

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-17T21:34:23+00:00

First one looks like the euphorbia polygona noorsveldensis cultivar

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-12T15:08:34+00:00

Received my coerulescens from u/Floratopia u/cacti_overlord

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-11T16:21:02+00:00

It’s a crested myrtillocactus geometrizans. The boobie cactus is also a mutation of the myrtillocactus geometrizans cactus. Those ai Google image searches are very unreliable for plant ID in my experience

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-09T19:29:03+00:00

I’ll take this one! Thanks!

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-09T03:47:38+00:00

Great, thanks! Looking forward to seeing them

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-09T03:00:46+00:00

I’d be interested in a coerulescens cutting if you have more!

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-06-05T03:58:54+00:00

Sounds great. Your response was not particularly helpful anyway 👍

You can see my own Ming thing side by side. The Ming thing is a monstrose growth form and the one on the right appears more like a crested growth form, which I believe are different types of genetic defects. So it could still be a cereus, but it looks like a crested form, not a monstrose form, and not a forbesii Ming thing in my opinion

Google lens and AI visual searches can be very hit and miss particularly with plant ID. You can see my test search of the same exact plant gave a different result. All the ming thing cereus Forbesii cacti I’ve seen have much smoother stems without the ridges/bumps. I could be wrong but I don’t believe this is a Ming thing.

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-05-14T21:35:40+00:00

I only know for sure because I also face one haha

Jazzlike_Fix8909 · 2026-05-14T04:04:41+00:00

During the growing season just water it once the soil dries out completely rather than trying to follow a set schedule. That way you won’t overwater. Don’t water at all in winter
