ID my cacti?

Been growing these out for a couple of years now, I hope 2/4 are bridgesii, but was sold the other two as san pedro, but comparing to pics online i'm not so convinced, the spines are pretty huge.
I know they're way over potted, n00b error, but they've done pretty good regardless, i think?
Thanks all.

There are numerous hybrids. World seed supply has the seed stock, check it out. Basement shaman was selling those crosses as seedlings.
I think it looks like a hybrid but I could very easily be incorrect.

Thanks for the info. I hadn't really thought about it but I guess hybrids must be fairly common.
Do you suspect they're all hybrids?
Would they even be active if so? I guess there's only one way to find out for sure

Some have heavy alkaloid content. I prefer to stay away from crosses with bridgesii as I don't understand the unique alkaloids found in those. Tropane?

No tropane alkaloids in Trichocereus cactus, regardless of species. They're reserved for members of the Solanaceae.

Well tropane sounds unpleasant so I hope not aha
I'll do some more research but I was really hoping to cut this girl down the end of the season as she's throwing out some nice pups

No reason to fear bridgesii. There are no "toxic" alkaloids found in any trichocereus, no matter what hybrid you cross. Bridgesii is no more toxic or harmfull than any other trichocereus. In fact, I had the best experiences when a bridgesii was involved in the mixture. I ate four different bridgesii (crosses?) raw and always had a good time.

Looks like a Pedro. It's hard to tell with hybrids around. Some hybrids are Jules giant with Pedro or whatever else. We could use more hybrids. I like em!

I contacted the vendor and they claimed these came from kohres seeds as named. A bit of research I've found a lot of people that bought the pachanoi seeds actually ended up with Cuzco or Peruvians. But the bridges are usually legit.
Thanks pandemoon. It would seem if they're bridge dominant i shouldn't worry too much.
^im a noob too but a bit of research has found some pachanoi are pc which aren't very active

They look so, yes, but the potency can only be guessed. Maybe one thick foot is a solid dose, maybe you have to eat two or more.
