Penis Cactus, Clone A

Ok, I picked up 2 more bridgesii at a cactus nursery. This time they are definitely monstrose. How slow do these grow? Trip dosage range?

Nice find, they will grow slow if you keep them in those little pots. After I transplanted mine they really started to grow a lot faster and shot out a pup or two not long after.

Well, that specimen certainly puts the "penis" in penis cactus.

Awesome cactus. Wish there was a cactus nursery in my area or at least a larger selection of cactus.

all you need is 1-3 segments of a clone a, you can almost do it like tabs of lsd (tabs not liquid), with a clone B just eat one large segment. Also they grow 4 to 6 inches a year, but once it developes hardy roots, it goes a little quicker

Those are not extremely slow. Personal experience is that a 5 section plant grew 2 sections in a season, and a 7 section plant prduced 4 additional sections, the subsequent season. About trip dosage, i don't know, as those are considered more intresting than regular bridgesii and it would be a waste to eat such nice specimen. they are genetically bridgesii, so the mescaline contenent may be the same, or slightly superior, due the slower growth

These are clone B, no?
Clone A is the long one, B is the short segmented growing clone.
Although I have heard there's a mix up online and some countries have the nomenclature reversed which is hella confusing.... Sacred Succulents also has a Clone C they are beginning to sell...
Either way, nice cacti! These can handle lots of water but prefer to be in dry air if that makes sense... Too much humid air can lead to weeping black rot spots which don't hurt the cactus usually but are unsightly.

Seems that in EU clone A is the short jointed one, and clone B the long jointed one. In the US it's the opposite
I searched for this clone C, but i didin'tfound anything about it? what's the characteristics of this one?

I'm sorry guys but this topic really pisses me off, it seems as if people are trying to hide this information, and so many people are buying the wrong cactus to feel a spiritual experience.
So here is the thing about Bridgesii, they are the only consistently active cacti, more so then a San Pedro or Peruvian Torch due to the fact these cactus are grown economically (commercially) for landscaping, and your standard P. Torch is KK338 which is not active. I had to find this out through experimentation, and it was a lot of wasted time.
I believe your best route for cactus is Bridgesii. What type of Bridgesii? TBM Clone A (short segment), is among one of the strongest forms due to the fact that it grows much slower then its counterparts. You can consider these things as substitute for lophophora williams ii, due to the fact people have had profound experiences with TBM at just 7 g's (dry). Wet it can be taken like tabs, one segment of TBM A will have subjects feeling the effects.

Yeah, I was confused as to which clone is which as well....but yeah the short jointed one is what I have.
I have some non-monstrose bridgesii as well, though the cuttings came from a long Penis Plant that had started to grow normally in some places. I also have a bunch of San Pedro, bot most are negligibly active (gonna extract)...haven't tested one of the specimens though.
Also, will my cacti grow all year long since I live in California, and the weather never gets too cold?

Yes they will grow all year round for you, they can handle full sun, and lots of water. They can be grown like any other Trichocereus.

This is from the Rare Plant List from Sacred Succulents...
Trichocereus bridgesii f. monstrose clone C
In the late 90s we grew hundreds of T. bridgesii from seed. One plant developed melted-wax monstrose traits early on, we designated it clone C. As the plant grew about half of the new stems seemed normal until they reached 18-30" then turned monstrose again. We finally decided to propagate the plant and offer it hear to you. Please note: you may receive a cutting that does not currently show monstrose traits, it will develop them as it grows!
So for the US, Clone A = Long, Clone B = Short, and Clone C = semi monstrose?? I will have to get one eventually and see what it looks like compared to my others like Lotusland and true melted wax bridgesii.
