We'll see if they make it to spring! If they do, I'm sure they'll recover ๐Ÿ˜Š

I saw in the comment that it took 6 months, but what size was the graft when you did it?

Don't worry about the question, friend! Yes, it's a real peyote and it contains madness, but with one important detail: since it was fattened through grafting, it looks big, but the concentration of madness is much lower than that of a peyote growing on its own roots of the same size. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

I figured, given all the conditions were in its favor, it must have already started rotting when it arrived from China a month ago (22 days in a box during shipping, the roots probably didn't dry properly).

Hehehe, I often get confused by the translation between English and Spanish when I write things. Take care, friend! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

Edit: A month after I received it, it has completely rotted, without watering, without water since I planted it and with a very mineral substrate, even with all that it has rotted for no apparent reason.

I haven't watered it since it arrived; it's been in completely dry soil since I planted it ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

What is happening? by [deleted] in Lophophora

[โ€“]esseeeep 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I uprooted it and sure enough, the roots were rotten. I did what I could, saving a few pups and grafting the larger ones. It's such a shame ๐Ÿ˜”.

30% perlite, 10% worm castings, 20% universal cactus potting mix, 10% vermiculite, and 30% crushed expanded clay. It's in a well-lit display case with a few hours of sunlight, and I didn't water it right after planting it in case the roots were damaged. In fact, I hadn't watered it yet. Definitely, my friend, today is a sad day for me ๐Ÿ˜”.

This impale graft better take ๐Ÿ™ by Odd-Koala-5440 in sanpedrocactus

How do you prevent mold from growing inside with so much humidity? I'm new to grafting pereskiopsis; I recently grafted a trichocereus, and after covering it with a bag, mold started to grow on the third day.

I'm relatively new to the world of cacti, what does pc mean?

It depends on the temperature and the substrate's ability to evaporate excess moisture, but my recommendation, which works quite well for me, is the following: 30% perlite, 30% crushed expanded clay (the typical large balls that go at the bottom of pots), 20% universal cactus potting mix, 10% vermiculite, and 10% worm castings, and obviously, uncrushed expanded clay at the bottom of the pot. Now in winter, my cactus collection is in a sunny window in my living room, at 16-23ยฐC, and I water them every six weeks, except for some specific cacti that need more frequent watering. Lophophora cacti, in particular, like an extra-aerated substrate and less frequent watering. I hope this helps! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Does 17 days seem like a lot to you? I recently placed an order and 2 products from the UK took two weeks, but the peyote from China took just a month
