I'd call it PC pachanoi or Trichocereus pachanpoi PC

PC = Predominant cultivar. Basically it was a clone that was mass propagated in the USA and planted a lot in people's gardens and landscape planting. It was the predominant cultivar that people were encountering and was named as such.

It's the stepped and not rounded spaces between areoles that are the stand out for this cultivar. True pachanoi tend to have rounded parts between areoles.

Just google the name and you will see the differences. Keeper Trout's written a bunch on it too.

Flowers can either be quick or slow. Warm temperatures have them developing quickly while cool slows things down.
Flowers only really last for 1 night. They open fully at night too. They're pollinated by Bats or moths in nature.

Curious about what you all would do with this Bridge. It’s my baby that have had far longer than the others, neglected because of life getting in the way and then brought back to its glory. That said, I’m nervous about chopping on it but it’s getting close to the light and I’m out of room. Almost 3 ft now.


Here’s some other standouts atm:
- TBM B



-TBM A


- Crested Pach (finally took to the pot and is starting to shoot new green growth out the bottom)



Root the top chunky 6-8 inches, cut the middle out and consume it, and leave about 3-4 inches above the soil to pup out.


You think that’d be enough to feel anything? I’ve never eaten/done any before so I have 0 experience with that. How should I go about consuming it?

All I was doing was responding to what I was told to do lol. Sorry.

Side note, here’s some cactus:



Chala that had rot on the tip so I had to behead it. Now after a month and a half or so, we have new growth. And it’s looking gnarly.

Damn there are some amazing Trichocereus in here...

I just got a pretty nice Pachanoi/Peruvianus hybrid which is sitting in a rather tiny pot which will easily fall over. Which size would you use for a 60cm tall one with a 10cm root system? I've got a 18cm pot and one 25cm, I'm thinking the 18cm should be more optimal for this size or should I chose the large one for more stability?

A question for more experienced growers. Ive got a few trichs in one gallon pots that I'd like to put into the ground in my yard. Problem is, I've got really dense heavy clay soil. Like hard to even dig with a shovel, dense.

What's a good way to get around this? Is it even a problem? Everything says they need good draining soil to prevent root rot but i know planting in-ground is a little different than in pots.

The yard currently has lots of succulents that seem to do ok and everything is on a slight slope so gravity does help with draining excess water.

@SkanskKorv- The bigger the pot the better really. I'd say go with the 25cm pot if you can make it work space wise.

@Galt- I don't have any experience with growing trichs in the ground, but the soil where I live has high clay content. Gypsum is good at helping to soften hard clay soil, and so is adding organic matter like peat or compost in the planting hole.

That makes things much easier... I've been reading you want a pot that's just a few cm bigger than the roots but this will make it hard to stabilise it so the bigger one sounds like a plan.

I've been using potting soil and perlite for these babies before but I doubt this is optimal. What do you use and why can I see clovers growing in your pots as well, does it benefit the cactus? They look absolutely awesome

A bigger root system will give you better growth. I think the slightly bigger pot rule is more for smaller globular type cacti, mostly because of possible overwatering issues with more soil. Trichocereus can take quite a bit of water when it's warm and they are actively growing, so that's less of an issue IME.

I use potting soil with added perlite, pumice, or scoria. I like pumice the best, but it's expensive and hard to find where I live. Quite a few of my trichocereus are in old recycled cannabis soil with added aeration.

The clover looking stuff is oxalis. I'm not sure where it came from. There's no benefit, but it doesn't really seem detrimental either. I'd get rid of it honestly, but it's proving really hard to do that. I'm kind of viewing it like herpes or something at this point, and learning to live with it.

Ooh okay this makes shit so much easier because I've been wondering how to get these heavy beauties to stand upright in such a small base. I mean I've got rocks to weigh it down with but I don't think they'll be enough since they'll be standing next to an open balcony window on the 6th floor so I don't want to be charged for manslaughter when one of these fall right on my sunbathing neighbours' head:awesome:

I guess I'll stick with this soil mix then! I haven't had any issues with it but read that pitting soil is bad, doesn't seem like it halted your grows though so I'll keep going with the 50/50 perlite and soil.

Oh... Well your genital herpes looks smashing:naughty: I had something similar on an Alocasia tandurusa but it didn't hitchhike when I replanted it.

Which fertilizer do you use? I've been using this which seems to be fine but I'd love to know if there are any better options

Those look fire, talking about mutants i grafted a lw cristate few days ago and can't stop thinking about the tricho rootstock.
Am I tripping or is this mutant growth starting?

My little Bridgesii fell over and landed on the floor yesterday and today I saw these brighter spots around the top spines but I'm not sure if it's fall damage or sunburn causing this... What do you guys think?

Re: Trichocereus Growers Unite! [Re: SkanskKorv] * 2

It's hard to say, but it looks more like sun stress from here. If it's damage from falling, it will most likely be softer in those spots.

To answer the fertilizer question...I use soy aminos, potassium silicate, kelp extract, humic acid, epsom salt, soluble gypsum, fish hydrolysate, and sometimes a micronutrient blend called TM7. I feed every 3rd watering or so. I'll topdress a little dolomite lime and/or gypsum early in the growing season. I keep it lower on N and P, and higher on K and Ca. I've gotten better growth since I started doing that. They aren't super picky, some people pump them up with a lot of fertilizer and some people seem to do well barely feeding them.

@Pete- It could be, but it kind of looks like its just dropping a rib.
