San pedro in hardware stores.
    #26884133 - 08/17/20 12:11 AM (3 years, 5 months ago)

I have read that people find San Pedro in hardware stores.

I would like to try to find it, if I go to some hardware stores and see some tall stalky cacti, how can I be certain it is San Pedro?

They will usually look like this; print it out and take it with you. :smile:



Three of these are PC, excluding the last picture. The middle front is non-PC of some type, and the far right one ended up being a legit non-PC Pachanoi, at least in my opinion.

Research what they look like prior to going, there's plenty of info here and online to do that. Or you can compare to pictures online while there or take pictures of cactus you see in the stores and post them here for identification.

Thats a Trichocereus.  I'm not sure exactly which species it is.  It might be a hybrid or some kind of Peruvianoid.

Both of them look like Trichocereus. (Not the moon cactus / big red Gymnocalaycium)

I would buy both.

It is a type of San Pedro.  Its not Haageocereus.  Its probably T. peruvianus or a hybrid.

Do the spikes look kinda large? The pictures of san pedro online always appear to have smaller spikes?

"San Pedro" is Trichocereus (generic predominate cultivar), like the pictures I originally posted. Other good Trichocereus (San Pedros) are Peruvian, Bridgesii, Scop, Macrogonus, Pachanoi etc, and have larger spines. The exception being Scop which has tiny spines and recessed areols, unless its crossed with something else.

There are all kinds of Trichocereus that are "San Pedro", without being a Pachanoi variety.

Trichocereus Bridgesii
Trichocereus Peruvianus
Trichocereus Scopulicola
Trichocereus Pachanoi (commonly called San Pedro)
Trichocereus Macrogonus
Etc, etc, are all good to have, they all look different with more or less spination, areols, different hues, etc. Genetics are all over the place and you can't expect to match every random hybrid to a picture on the internet. :smile:

I'm currently using: Two parts Cococoir : Two parts top soil : one part vermiculite. I would add in gravel but I'm all out. I also add common soil amendments to my dirt like greensand, softrock phosphate, gypsum, diatomaceous earth, and a bit of iron. Sometimes I use coir bricks that are expended with kelp, fish, or other diluted fertilizer.

Some people use pumice or lavarock but I can't source that economically.

Make sure you remove all of the peat moss from the roots, trim the roots up, dust with sulfur, and let them heal before potting into a better mix. (NO PEAT MOSS!)

They just re paved my road and sided the entire road with gravel, could I use that kind of gravel? Street grade gravel?

Blacktop or just gravel road work? If its just gravel, I would test the salt in it, if its blacktop, stay away, arsenic, tar, etc.

-edit-

Actually, no, don't use anything from the road. Its dubious as to where any of it is sourced from. Even roadway salt is usually free from the oil industry because it's often radioactive and a cheap way to dispose of it to cities and towns that either don't think to test the stuff or don't care. (Radium-226 and radium-228) Not something I would want around my plants.
