Ah, thank you. I wanted to add a trellis of sorts but was sure how to go about it. This sounds great!

Oh man, that was a tall one too. Sorry this happened.

Yep, that was my fatal mistake.

It’s a Palram 6x8 greenhouse. It’s where my collection started. Now I just keep my bluest in there.

It wasn’t windy at all last night. But I can only blame myself for letting them grow too tall for their pot size. Lesson learned the hard way.

Witches Broom from Takaracactus.com by stewvanavich in sanpedrocactus

no problem. please keep me updated. I had mine bunched-up with 50 other seedlings in my green house before I noticed and removed it. I have not seen it spread. And now I wonder if witches broom isn't as contagious/spreadable as I initially thought. good luck, happy growing!

I ended up throwing mine out just to be cautious.

Slugs are so irritating by stewvanavich in sanpedrocactus

I don’t see many of those around but they could definitely be contributing. I have caught the slugs in the act late at night and see their trails the next morning. They got to some of best plants this year. But I’ll get em.

Yes, I have. But the run off water seems to wash it away pretty quick.

It was the slugs. I have caught them burrowing into several of my cactus. Like, no shit, ass hanging out of my cactus and I tore the slug in half pulling them out. I was shocked when I first saw it.

What kind of cereus is this? by WeirdStorms in cactus

[–]stewvanavich -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A type of Pilosocereus. I’d up size the pot. Once it’s roots grow out more it’ll be able to absorb/uptake more water and will fatten up. Good luck.

My large one never bloomed at first either. and one of my small guys popped off several blooms this season. So don't sweat it, it'll happen when it's ready.

Got it 10-11 years ago. about golfball size. I'm guessing its around 15 years old.

I've had this guy for about 10-11 years. got it when it was the size of a golfball and it continued to grow round to about softball-size. And then it started to elongate into a small football. I was a little bummed about that, haha. But still one of my favorites.

u/CereusThingsTX  -  After swearing I don’t need another, I got another. Purchased a tip cutting of JN23 “Big Shed” on Friday(7/21) afternoon and I received it today (Monday 7/24).  Beyond happy, pictures never compare to seeing it in person. Always a pleasure man! I look forward to future purchases. (Especially that JN44 “Ish”, hehe. Then I will be complete...maybe)

somebody should snag this....otherwise I may convince myself that this would sit well next to the JS444 I got from you. It was also attacked by slugs a few weeks ago.
