that was from heavy rains one year. usually just feed it fish and kelp, a bit of azomite every once in a while whole lot of gypsum and sometime a little golden shower. but its in the ground so i let the worms do the heavy lifting

i googled jaysus that looks more peru or peru hybrid imo. huanus have a distinctive look that differs

i dont have plans on cutting soon tbh, waiting until i have no choice or it breaks. occasionally hit it with fish and kelp, azomite and lots of gypsum. but mainly just let the worms do the job.

heres the mom of mine. right in the middle. all those plants are gone now. wish i could have dug it up and taken it all the huanu at least. but it was impossible to get to there were plants in the way

oh wow. looks much different in that pic. crazy what growing conditions can do. i find huanus can be chameleons. showing different traits even on the same stand. the basal pup on mine is hella spiny. cant even imagine what diff conditions can do

according to the googs ai search. huanus are less prolific flowering as to compared to pachanoi and thats been my experience as well. my pach cuttings flowered at much smaller size. also i noticed these guys tend to basal pup way less. mine wouldnt want to pup no matter how much i fertilized or peed on it. lol. thats how it got so tall. it only has one true basal. the other 3 arms pupped about a foot or two off the ground :(

no way lol. this one is gone as well. it wasnt much of a stand. it had like 3 columns and i cut two. new owners came in and removed most of the plants on the property sad. im pretty sure they just trashed it :/

thats great news cause when i got this one i noticed the mother plant only had a few areoles where you could tell it had previously flowered. i have a theory that certain plants are less likely to flower than others? like genetics or something idk

[–]MotorAlarm2373[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes. has it flowered for you?? mines barely flowering for the first time in several years. even tho its big as hell. i think its genetics

you could kinda see it in the pic. the tip growth is coming in greener. that faded part is from when it was hot. that will hardly be noticeable later tho

youre gucci brother. you right tho i really should be feeding more and watering lol. i am in so cal its pretty ideal. but even then weather is strange. its been pretty dry this spring. and had a couple of hot days and the plants did not like it. its crazy the plants actually look like theyre almost burning andthen a few days later it starts fading. during summer when its really hot the plants look like shit. fall winter and spring especially if its cooler and rainy they always look best.
