Cactus Id. if you would be so kind.

I think the first four pics are an Echinopsis of some kind. The last one i have no idea.
Cheers in advance

it is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.
A penalty for possession of a drug/plant should not be more damaging than the drug/plant itself.

echinopsis is correct, weather it is a peruvians is hard to tell for certain, but im thinking yes. nice and blue

i would suggest cutting it off where it starts turning brown and let it pup from down there instead of at the high spot.
root the tip after letting calous.
then take the center cut and make 3 segments for rooting, like the one lying in the pot, but please, stand them up, theres no benefit to logging.

the REALLY short segment is unlikely to survive.
as for the original plant, try a larger clay pot and lots of rich composty soil.

and send me a segment if you feel generous :smile:

Around there?

'no benefit to logging' you say. Is this from personal experience? i have cacti fiend friends who tell me otherwise. They say you're likely to get as many as 2/3 pups on each end by 'logging' where as with standing you're lucky to get 2.

Since I'm tight as a ducks butt i don't think I'll be send you a segment :sad:

Maybe a pup in a few months though. :smile:

as for logging having 2 pups at each end, maybe if you have ideal conditions, the same conditions should have the same effect for a vertical.

i dont have personal experience logging, just seen alot of other people do it, and based on the actual results, decided it wasn't worth the asthetically unpleasing appearance of logs usually its 1 or 2 pups out of the top. tho ive had verticals with 2 on top AND 2 on bottom. what it really comes down to is what looks better. in 3-4 years, actual growth will be pretty much indistinguishable anyway.

also, i would cut it 5 areoles higher, more stock below means more pup energy. les taken from the roots too, so better chance of pups at base.

you could ALWAYS leave it as is and then let the top pup, cutting it later to root the segment already pupped.

my take is basically, logging works, maybe as well, definately not better. but it just looks bad, its really up to you.
