7th day of August. I watered plants two days ago, also those what I separated from one pot to 3 pots.
Two 10x10cm pots seems they need transplant.. Roots are probably very hard to get easily off. Soon when I have time I'll transplant everyone before winter.

And mutt growing alone for now on.

14th day of August, I moved my mutt away from artificial lights and let it have some sun before winter comes. After transplant I kept this in dry soil and under fluoro lights some days. Now it's watered. 
 To get idea of size, pot for plant is just 5cm(2inch) diameter.
I should transplant the other plants as well soon..

Crested plant are from this only pot I accidentally dropped to my floor few months ago.

I moved all under fluoro light.. I let plants to recover from transplant. It takes 2 hours to do this.. 
Nice roots. I broke these pots when I don't need them anymore so plants are easy to transplant.

Some plants during process..

One plant I moved alone to one small pot.

All trichs recovering and I will water them once more before winter.

Lookin good! I can't wait for a few months to pass and my hybrids actually have spines and look like cacti. Currently only about 3 weeks in since planting. Little green blobs right now.

Those look great so far 
I also planted a bunch around three weeks ago, they seem to be doing quite well, can't wait for them to be as big as yours

Looks like someone won the jackpot and got themselves a crested seedling.

I moved them to get some sun along the bigger trichs, if sun shines at all.. Also I saved some space by arrange the plants around bigger ones, also they got some shade from others... Hope these get used to strong sun next summer. I only mist those plants with water and didn't done yet full soak to soil because I want to wait roots are really recovered.

Another plant started to act weird and forms small coming pup from it's top.. Pics doesn't tell so much what kind of top the plant have. Very odd. Hard to say what happens in future tho.
Few plants have transplanted alone to small pots.

Crested plant and second pic it's near another seedling.

If that funny pupping continues in future, plant may look fun.. But it may just be regular plant anyway..

Looking pretty good man! Hey, I had attempted to message you about your offer for seedlings but I think I botched it up... Anyhow, I've since got a crop of my own seedlings on the way . I'm still learning from your posts what to expect as mine grow up so keep it up .

It's been a while since I have take pics from these plants. I watered some plants and take pictures same time.
09/06/2014 I have picked some plants on their own pots what I'll keep myself, rest plants I don't have room for will go away to another growers.

And some plants waiting to be donated and packed for distribution to fellow growers since I have no room to grow much trichocereus..

What you guys think? Could this phenomena continue with this funny plant? ...We'll see is this mutation or not.
 I have seen smaller seedlings grow a pup from top but this reduced rib amount till it can't grow and it continues by growing pup. Ribs reduced like TBM:s do till it doesn't have anymore possibility to grow without making new branch. I'll hope this continue, would be nice form! I have never seen this size trich start to do this.. do anyone else have seen trichs behave like that at this age? 
Pics taken few days ago from crest plant. It's so small and grows slower than others, photographing isn't so easy because plant is still pretty small and on it's own roots.
Pics from both side of cresting seedling taken 09/01/2014


And I'll continue soon.. There's warmer than usually and very sunny. I think grow season goes lil' bit longer but soon these plants going to be in dormant, I just need to wait sun goes away.

The one that has a head at the top looks monstrose. Only time will tell with that one. They look great man.

If so.. out of approx 100 plant (I didn't count the seeds) gives two mutants, one is for sure.. That second may be.
I'll sure post pics.. Would be nice if it's some sort of funny mutt. It still growing as fast as any other.
There starts to be visible some genetic difference.. After next season it's more visible do I have two o one mutant.

It kind of looks like the growing tip terminated, similar to how the Trichocereus 'Sausage plant' does. It's either that trait or the apical tip was damaged and it's pupping, which I doubt as you can clearly see how the apical areole has terminated. Cool to see you got a couple of freaks.

Ye thanks! I was thinking first about damage but it can be clearly seen it's just shut down the rib growth and then pup from top. Ribs seems so go very "spiral" and reduce amount of them at top but I can't say is that just normal.. So small plants are hard to say what is normal and what not, they may do funny tricks. 
It was so hard time to try take picture like that so it can seen how ribs will vanish and how the top of the plant is just all right.
Would be fun if it's somekind of "sausage"-mutant.. or something.. Growth speed is same to other plants so this possible mutt will grow faster.. Only dat crested seedling is very slow. It started actually similar way but it pup a cresting top from small seedling. 
These aussie-seeds have got best germination than any trichocereus seeds tho.. Journey to my hands have been long but don't know how long.. I'm jealous to Australian environment and climate. I'm not jealous to toxic bugs

I was always mildly wondering about why people call it the sausage. That makes sense now.
Looking forward to seeing these plants mature.
Yeah I'd love to be in Australia or around there but

You've got more chances of getting killed by a human than you do by animals and insects down here. Most animals and snakes run away when you see them. Don't let nature scare you from visiting.

If I get the chance I'll take it. There is so many places and habitats I'd like to see.

I've forgot to take better pic from crest cactus, just watered it some days ago because sunny days. It really starts to drink water now. Feels it grows nice roots atm.
It have been grown some. There have been nice sunny days but not so hot anymore than summer(+30..+40C day time indoors)
Now some +20..+28C temps are going to be during day, I have stop watered my plants anymore to prevent etiolation till sun goes away fast soon.
09/09/2014
 It's almost 1" wide and some 1,5cm tall or so. Cactus receive same amount of light what my biggest cacti have. Watering I have done carefully because it had small roots when I transplant it. Seems it starts now taking more water but anyway, winter is coming and I don't want to loose this to rot. Still.. I have think about moving this under CFL light few months and let it have some 2-3month dormancy during cold winter months.
