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.

peruvian torch is Trichocereus Peruvianus
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.

great! anybody thinks its not a San P.?

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