My cat is currently growing these San Pedro. Is it worth cutting up and trying? I've experimented with many substances but not San Pedro mesc. I hear nausea is inevitable

Yes that was part of the advertising hype - the roots came through the pot - OK my pot was 100 litres - but the roots didn´t grow through the fabric for me. Made the whole thing a bit pointless. I would prefer my roots to be surrounded by compost sucking up nutrition anyway. The adage - Bigger the roots, bigger the shoots - is so true for cannabis growing. Why trim off part of your valuable root system?

EL Torcho>> sorry
I did NOT catch it the first time. Interesting you mention they dont get rootbound in the fabric pots.
I think fabric pots are awesome, you can even water them sideways, but they're expensive.
Which type of pot, how many liters, what soil, it depends in a lot of stuff. The general location but the specific location the cacti are going to sit.. How many you have, how much you wanna bother, etc etc.
I am not naysaying these substrates you mention, it's just that I found that at the end Trichocerei grow in anything and they grow in plain dirt too if you plant them in the ground and leave them. They propagate easily, they pup / branch a lot. Only takes a little patience.
If you got one, it's easy to pamper, but if you get the flu and getting more and more, you just leave them be, mine end up rootbound all the time and then is the time they seem to wanna flower.
peat is bad for slow growing cacti, but they're ok in a soil mix for trichocerei or other fast growing columnars with fat roots.

I used to grow a strain of cannabis that would always start to yellow at random times. I tried everything the experts on forums told me, and nothing seemed to help on a repeated basis. I finally figure out it was the pots. At the time I was transplanting 2 or 3 times during a cycle into continually larger plastic pots. As soon as the roots hit the bottom of the plastic pot and began to circle, the leaves would start to yellow. Wasn't until I switched to fabric pots that the yellowing stopped. They make a difference in root growth. They allow more airflow to the roots, which is also what the perlite you all are debating the perfect ratio does, along with drainage. Airflow isn't even comparable to plastic pots. Sorry.
And I've had smart pots going on 8 years now, in use continually. They weigh less than terra cotta and I can roll them up, throw, or drop them and they don't break. Not sure how terra cotta is more durable. And they take as much room as a folded t shirt to store extras. I would use terra cotta for the mexican desert cacti, but not trichos.
The reason root rot happens isn't solely because the soil was 'too moist too long' . . . it mainly has to do with there isn't enough oxygen in your soil so the conditions turn anaerobic and nasty microbes dominate the soil mix.

For cacti I use only terracotta - Long Toms for cacti with deep tap roots. But each to their own.

I found my very first long tom pot today. Was actually called that and everything, I didn't believe they existed this side of the pond now that I know they do I will hunt them down unfortunately the one I found was like 15" long and 10" wide won't really be good for any of the plants that I have

Torcho, I second that about the clay pots. They are good for slow growers and even then, I dont use perlite in a clay pot, I just take out the peat... But other people swear by them... Colder, more humid places go better with clay.
Once I was a newb myself and found a couple lophos in a local nursery and along with some other slow growers I planted in clay pots, in a mixture or cactus soil (mostly sand) perlite, gravel, and maybe very little soil.. For two years they didn't grow at all!! When I repotted them I saw the roots were burning all the fucking time. So yeah my cacti are exposed to the elements, extreme sun in summer, rain at winter.
My lophos are in plastic too.
All me trichocerei are in plastic pots, even myrti breasts, trichocereus pasacana, taquimbalensis, scopulicola, peruvianus they are all exposed to rain every winter, many years now...
Clay would be best for cooler/colder places or for winter.
I wonder about spanishfly who is in a similar climate to me - well I guess he is in a colder place. And the substrate must play a role I guess.
Trichocereus pachanoi aint no cactus and if you dont put enough food in the substrate its not gonna grow as fast as it can.

Well you don´t actually tell us what climate you are in so who would know. I am in a Mediterranean climate - hot dry summers with warm wet winters and westerly winds.
So what exactly do you WONDER about me ??
