Cool.
You're also selling shit, so there's that.

Selling shit? I'm not sure what you mean. Through facebook? I have a facebook page for my business, yes. But I'm not sure how that applies to the idea I was talking about... That there is more than one way to skin a cat and that there isn't a reason to get all controversial about everything. Calm discussion among equals is more what the FB groups are about, that's all I was getting at.
And I've also been a sponsor on here until recently, and probably will run an ad again soon. So I'm still not sure what you mean by "selling shit" as it applies to facebook.

Just pointing out you're in this for profit.

I was just trying to give advice like anyone else in this thread man. How that is going to sell something I'm not sure...
There's no reason someone can't make money doing what they love.
I kind of ended up falling into this. Like a lot of you, around 10+ years ago now I started obsessively collecting cactus. At one point you kind of either have to start selling them or giving them away and I figured, as I still figure to this day, that if I offer fair prices to people for what I'm offering and a quality product, then there shouldn't be any negative feelings in any way.

My ideas aren't well regarded on this forum. There's a serious lack of true living organic knowledge on this forum. I wasn't trying to be a dick, but I still stand by my statement where size doesn't automatically equate to true overall plant health, wherein I think your qualm lies.

Conjecture isn't inherently bad. Me and r3dz is cool, me and barracho have made peace. It's all good in the hood.

No one was spreading conjecture. I'm probably one of the few vendors that actually has a degree in horticulture. You don't know me so please do not judge me in any way.

No offense, but I bet you're horticulture degree is nothing more than an education in which synthetics to use.
Oh, shit. I've been drinking.
I'm signing off yo. . . .

Wow, you're obviously confrontational. If my perfectly reasonable thoughts were just taken as "Oh I'll have to check out those FB groups as another means of information Thanks" As they were meant to me taken than none of this talk would have happened in the first place. You obviously like derailing threads. I never judged you, you were the one that claimed what I was saying is conjecture, which is rumor based on no facts... Which isn't even the right word to use here considering that everything I said is based on actual experience and facts.

Synthetics? My main horticulture teacher was COMPLETELY against synthetics. See, there you go with your assuming, judgmental thoughts dude. Keep them to yourself.

And you can't just say no offense in front of anything and it's taken non-offensively, That's not how that works.
Also you're probably 18 so I don't know why I'm even bothering arguing with you when I can just .... where's that block button? Oh there it is...

Hey no offense, but the other member on here with a link to your Web page is just about the same as you. Coincidence?

boy , call me a pervert, but I love a good drama
Torcho I think I like you.
Spanishfly, I am in southern greece dude, similar to yr climate like I said, so I wondered how you manage to use clay pots with fast growing cacti like trichos. Maybe I did not explain myself so well. The answer is propably you use a better 'quality' substrate which you feed periodically.
As far as what I was trying to say, I was adressing to the OP, and the original question
that trichocereus pachanoi and similar species are among the EASIEST cacti to grow, and for a beginer, using something simple would be the commonest choice.
I believe that rules are only relative in horticulture, and that it depends on a wide variety of things , climate, position, soil, container all that shit but also , the character of the cultivator.. the style of gardening each one of us employs, especially when managing many plants is very different...
and I mentioned that t.pachanoi can take 20-20-20 fert. I didnt say I do it... I remember when I put 20-20-20 to some lopho on tricho and cereus grafts, and the scions split it a dramatic way. but regular columns can take it alright. I suppose its a good solution when youρ trichos are root bound but you cannot bother to up-pot ....
Torcho, I hope you are wrong about this place not having people with specialised horticulture knowledge... well you ARE wrong, there are some fine people here, like stonehedge whose posts about e.nov brought me back to this place.... and also ephedra, who some say it should be treated like a cactus seedling at first, as it seems its me special year with this plant.
Peace, and dont be too much of a smartass unless you indeed know the other guy is not smart or knowledgeable enough..
PS: when giving advice, you should ask the dude that asks whats the climate he lives in... at the very least..
whatever the case, there's some serious attitude in this thread... I dig it.. bring it on!
PS2:
heres a trichocereus pachanoi crest, a biggy that is, its some 2 years or more in that pot, no more than 30 liters.. my problem is repotting, not substrate, but maybe this is just me...
the reason that its yellow and ill looking is the extreme sun, the root bound situation etc.. you could fix it by watering twice a day or placing it in a shadier spot during the heat - but of course I dont do that...

I will stand to say that milktruck and mallacht or two different people. not sure why you're bashing mallacht, he's got nice plants for a good price and I've never seen him post any misinformation in the time that I've been here.
Why are you being so hostile man, I feel like people in the EBG start drinking and then get real hostile with people real quick is that what happens to you in real life when you drink? do you get in a lot of fights?
Relax

I don't need a third party chiming in when another member has me confused with someone else, and we've already worked it out. It just keeps it going when it should be dead and none of his business anyways.
If you sell stuff that the forum is dedicated to, your post deserve to be scrutinized. Especially when you're trying to drive people to other sites.

I do not grow trichos. Sure I come to the thread and take an interest in what others are doing, but my main interest is in Mexican desert cacti. Good luck.

Wtf? Chiming in? I'm not involved in your rant. I talked about a totally different subject. This is forum. Yeah I confused you with someone else.. my bad dude. Him being in my neck of the woods has nothing to do with you. So by all means rant away if that's what you would like to do. Have a good one man. Please don't drag me into your hate speach
