very cool. I was just worried because when I googled it the other pics had different colored spines it kinda looked like.

I couldn't believe that these were only 4 dollars, and free shipping. theres more if anyone wants some cheap as fuck cacti. maybe i should get more than one..

Some can write t. terscheckii as t. pasacana.

You can see the difference. I have take these photos at spring.

Terscheckii:


Pasacana:


These are someway similar plants. They are first growing to cobular and later on start to grow columnar. Also size and "real adult" plant appearance are similar.

I meant "real adult" of cactus plants what are age of dozens of years and possible size of many meters long.

Terscheckii has still always these golden-yellow spines. Pasacana spine color vary much more than terscheckii but these two big columnar trichocereus are sometimes mixed with labels.. Especially when they are size of ~1 meter(3 feet) or more they are starting to look similar plants.

god those Trichocereus Terscheckii look strikingly similar to an old 'house plant' cactus my family had. My dad had just got it from a store probly, I wonder if it was one. It died though a month or so ago :sad:

My plan is to grow two large columnars to house plants. I keep them in greenhouse when it's summer and spring and fall at windowsill under extra artificial light.

My climate is very hard to grow cacti. At winter is no sun at all, at summer there is no night at all. Also greenhouse season can be as short as 2-3months. In best case with heater greenhouse season can be 3-5months.. Maybe 6months if heater are used at day time too..

Problem is sun is getting lower after mid-summer very fast and every weeks is 1hour shorter or one hour longer day time. Depends is there spring or fall. At day time day light reduce/increase aprox 6minutes per day.

I hope to get big columns to keep indoors as decorational plants cause most of the year I cannot keep cacti in greenhouse.. Too cold cause I am living northern than arctic circle. But love to collect cacti, they are beautiful and very cool plant group to collect.

Actually I live in very cold freezing desert instead of cacti are from hot deserts. If desert can be defined that there is lot's of untouched area and human population is very small... About 200-300 kilometers more north landscape is pure tundra without only small slow growing plants tough enough to survive short summers and long winters.

Without extra lights and heaters cactus growing there is very slow and watering is not needed for long time even at summer.

It's challenge but fun hobby to collect these beautiful specimens of this plant genus.:yesnod:

I have ordered a couple  of these from this seller , He has a nice selection of cactus for cheap .
I always buy from him if i have a little bit of left over cash in my paypal account.
I did buy a ferocactus from him that was infested with some pests , and I had to get rid of it . Couldn't risk the infestation of my whole collection.

Terscheckii grow very slowly  until they hit like 10 years , IME anyway.
I've had the two i bought for about  6 months and all they have done is gotten a bit fatter , but one does look like it's growing new areoles finally.
Here are some of mine all at different ages.
The big one in the middle is an echinocatus Grusonii.
The rest are terscheckii And one possible pasacana .
