Please help me figure out what's wrong with my wooly loph
#21900784 - 07/05/15 12:26 PM (8 years, 6 months ago) |

So I noticed 4 days ago that my wooly loph that I had left out one night had a hole where something started eating on it. I knew that this alone was of no real danger so I moved it inside of my greenhouse for it to heal up. I've snapped a couple pics of it here and there because it seems to be getting worse as time goes on. Here are the pics


I didn't snap any pics today but I did notice the the outer point of the upper peres leaves looks as if they were starting to rot and turn a dark almost purplish color.
There is a small spot on the back of the loph that looks rusty and the 2 areoles on each side of the hole are turning a reddish color and are very soft.
What is this I'm dealing with and is there any way to save it?
Also there is 1 pup that still looks healthy and deep green. Should I graft this pup?

ah.. it looks bad. Probably you lost time to act, at this point i would just cut a bit to understand what's going on.
Since is seems that its rotting from the inside, try to cut diagonally a slice that doesent touch apical meristem or linfatic circles, and check if you can remove all the rotten/bad tissue.
The fact that you mentioned that peres in getting yellow leaves too, leads to think to the worst possible...
of course if you see that it's gone, you can graft viable pups.
wait for others to chime in anyway. good luck.

Thank you Lem for your help. I actually started cutting on it before you even posted this and it looked bad but I think I might have gotten it.
I'm gonna upload some pics in a lil while.

Ok here he is now. Hopefully I didn't damage the meristem and he can dry up now.

Still seeing orange is a bad sign. Graft those pups asap if they look clean after slicing off.

Rot to the core like that is pretty much invariably terminal. Good luck with the pup!

at this point, since you already grafted healthy pups, i would remove all the rot tissue. Even with a little piece of loph and an areole on the peres (the bottom part) , it can still pup again.

K will do Lem. I'm gonna try to graft the other pup that doesn't look as healthy if it's not rotten when I cut it then I'll slice it down to a couple areoles.
Thank you all for all your help

Ok here's an update on what I did with my sad Wooly Loph.


Anybody wanna make a bet for which areole it will pup from? Winner of the bet gets a "reasonable" favor of their needing. if more than 2 "myself and whoever" bet the winner receives 2 "reasonable" favors of their needing either atm or in the future from each that bets
I know which one I'm betting on so if your down let me know and I'll tell you which one I got my eye on.
If this is against forum rules let me know and I'll delete the bet if not games on
Only people able to bet are the 2 that have replied in this thread before this post though. Mostly and Lem you in?

:
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong here, I only have one loph and it's not grafted.
Somebody I know who grows lophs told me when I graft them to trichs to cut the edges of the ribs at a downward angle. This is because of the way it grows. That way when it gets bigger it won't pop itself off.
If that's not correct then sorry, just trying to help for the future and since it's still fresh.

I know I've heard the same but I probably won't cut it until I know the loph has taken.
I'm highly unsuccessful with columnar grafts so far.

Peres is the shit when your working with seedlings without a doubt. Have you gotten any of your peres grafts to take? If so your welcome to add a pic to this thread.
I'll keep everyone updated on how this one does. I have a good feeling about this lil boy

No not yet the barely got 1-2 inch new growth. I also just got a bunch of open pollinated seeds from AUS so I may wait a bit to see if some interesting seeds pop up 
I hope your wooly survives!

One of the pups look good but the other looks kind of shitty so if I got the connection right I might get one out of it.

No bad news to give buddy I have about 30 others that are in the chamber now and at least 19 have taken atm from my last count
He will be missed but he will be replaced as well
Also maybe that pup will take and I'll have him back

Sadly, yes. I suspect foul play from the other mutants. This poor non mutant was just massively outnumbered...
