That looks like rot on the peruvianus, I'd cut it off.

The purple/blackish spots are what is known as weeping black rot. Keep the pups dry and don't water the cactus heavily and it should just scab over. There's no need to cut the pups off unless it spreads and even then I've never seen black rot spread through the vascular bundle.

I recently noticed that some of my T. peruvianus also have black rot susceptible pups. The mature columns never show any signs of it so it's curious.

Thanks guys.  I'll keep an eye on it this week, but the spots are definitely getting bigger & more black than purple.  It kills me, because I really liked the looks of this one, but will cut the pups if necessary.

Do you recommend leaving any of the pup material attached, or cut them off completely?

Throw some sulphur on it. It kills fungus by cutting the oxygen off to it. Unpot the cactus and sprinkle the sulphur on and lay it on it's side. A dusting will do, but it's basically your Obi Wan if it's spreading. If you can't unpot it, dust it a second time after a couple days.

I'd just give it more time and keep an eye on it. If it progresses or the tip goes black then I would cut it but like naum said, it's weeping black rot and those lesions should clear up on their own without spreading throughout the whole cactus. Sulphur powder wouldn't hurt it either.

The rot seems to have slowed or stopped entirely.  Still looking for some sulphur powder locally.  Thanks again for the good advice.

Sulfur powder is generally used on roses, for leaf mildew and whatnot. Any nursery should have it.

Good tip.  I quickly scanned the home improvement store, but was not sure where to find it in there.  Will hit a nursery soon.

So, over the course of the summer I applied the sulfur dust twice.  The rot did overcome the growing tip on both pups, but Mother Nature endured and began throwing out new pups.  These photos were taken six weeks ago.

Man, I've got a cutting I've been trying to root for a year and it's done NOTHING. Those are awesome. It's cool where it's pupping from too.
