Growth rate of multi-stem Trichocereus cacti
    #21129299 - 01/16/15 01:29 PM (9 years, 4 months ago)

Just a couple of quick questions please...

If you have a multi-stem Trichocereus pachanoi or bridgesii growing from what is presumably a single root source, will its growth ability be divided between the stems - so each of the (say 4) stems grow only 3" in a season rather than the normal 12" or will they all grow 12" ish at the full rate?

And second, is it safe to separate multi-stems or would I just end up badly damaging the root system?

Cheers.

Welcome to the EG terrynutkins (I loved The Really Wild Show when growing up! :awesome:)

I guess it is a factor of scale.
Given a free root run, I would expect the multi stemmed to put on mass faster once established, they would have the root system and increased water and nutrient uptake to go with the increased stem area for soaking up the sun. But when constrained by pots the fastest rates are probably achieved by a single stem per pot.

Cheers fella!

Nice one. I'm going to be repotting them to give them some more room to play come Spring so I may as well leave them as a family then.

Thanks very much.
