Its just that I was guessing he wanted to know if it was active or not. A lot of people seem to refer to all active trichs as pedro
Sorry for any confusion.

and there are many different cacti that are Trichocereus that are not "pedro"

I bought seeds off a vendor that says
Quote:
Trichocereus bridgesii: San Pedro cacti
This cactus is also called San Pedro by the Incas - Rare.
But like royer said , a bridgesii is nota pedro, and niether is a torch.

It´s a Trichocereus peruvianus, to be specific.
The size of the spines has nothing to do with it´s chemical makeup.
