Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded.

What sort of Hydro system do you plan on going too? You should transpalnt those perekposis into 2-3" netpots and put them in the system. I plan to make an aerospring system with a 400w MH for my cactus once they outgrow my floros. I cant wait to see my hydro raised perekposis grafted peyote/pedro/torch seedlings.

This cacti was purchased from BBB and has alot of skin damage. It arrived in the mail, dirt washed off roots, and put in hydro. I have never done any cacti, let alone hydro cacti.

sure, This is new to me (hydro cacti). I know about hydro tho(flood and drain). (I grow hydro veggies) And have some tomato, greanbeans, pepper, catnip(for the cats), and trying hydro vadalia onions(no idea if this will work, in vermiculite, thinking of trying carrots like this too)

So I added this puppy to see how it will do.
The bottom of the cacti is 1 inch above the highest level the water gets. The roots of the cacti stretch all the way down into the bottom of the plastic container, in the water. The pebbles are nothing more than that lava pebble stuff you get any any hydro store(PH neutral). I don't change my nutrients(cept every 2 weeks), and keep the PH at 6.5 I add H2O2 to keep root rot and other pathogens from becoming a problem.(supposed to do it every day) (the amount to add can be found on the net) I basically keep all my settings the same that my vegetables will like. I dont know if the cacti will like it, but i guess we will see in the next few weeks. The cacti is under a 400wHPS. My vegetables have not out grown the area, but i fear they soon may, and i will havta pick and choose what to kill to keep up with space. (grean beans, and tomatoes are MAD space users)

When the cacti arrived, it had some dirt on the roots, and at the bottom, i just ran warm water over it for a few minutes, and gently rubbed the dirt that wouldn't come off. (you don't havta get it ALL off, just most and any that will rub lightly off) Then i put the cacti in the VERY bottom of the plastic container, with no lava pellets in it, i then, added pellets till it was full, and SLOWLY lifed and shook the cacti, then added more pellets, lifted/shook again, more pellets, lifted/shook again. The goal was to get pellets under the cacti, while keeping the roots as deep as possible. As soon as the cacti's bottom was high enough to where, highest water was about 1 inch below the bottom of the cacti, I stopped pulling the cacti up and filled the rest in with the pebbles. you may have to tie or secure your cacti depending on how deep its in the pebbles, and how many roots you have.
So, lets say my HIGHEST water level was at 5inches on the plastic container from the bottom up. My cacti sits at 6 inches from the bottom up, never acutally in the water, HOWEVER the roots stretch well into the water, all the way down to the bottom of the plastic container. (the pic i posted above shows the lines if you click it)

Much more than that, I don't know, as this is my first attempt at hydro cacti. For nutrients, I use microGrow, microFloral, and MicroBloom, or something. I never use solid nutrients, they suck compared to liquid. My first attempt at hydro veggies, i had solid nutrients, and when I switched to liquid, it was like giving the plants caffiene. Post any questions.

the reason i didn't choose vermiculite or perlite to plant my cacti was because they BOTH stay very wet inbetween waterings, and the pellets do tend to hold water, but not as much, and they hold water at the very bottom of the container (the pellets at the top dry out from the light, which is good for cacti, and even regular plants)

My vadalia onions are in perlite, and the tops of the perlite are starting to get slightly brown, due to the moisture of the perlite(the brown is bacteria i am pretty sure) for hydrogarden, pearlite and cacti are prolly a big NO NO. (but is prolly ok in a non hydro situation) Use a dryer medium, like the pebbles.
obviously ive yet to see the true results of this, but I think I have grasped the true nature of the hydro cacti. (cept nutrient amounts and proper ph) (and im guessing they are same as most plants)

Heh, I screwed up. When i added my cacti, I forgot to treat the cacti alone for a while to kill off any bad things in the roots of the cacti.
Well, the cacti roots gave my whole hydro system some kinda root eating pathogen. My green bean is suffering bad, so after chaning the water, running water thru every plant container, rinseing all tubs, lines, pumps out, I refilled my system with just plain NO NUTRIENTS, distilled water, and then added 300ml of (3%h2o2) to 25 gal of water. I then cycled this thru my system and plants for an hour. And did this cycle for an hour every 5 hours. All day. I then again the next day, changed the water out again, added again 300ml of (3%h2o2) and again didn't put ANY nutrients in the system, and flushed the system for an hour, every 5 hours all day.
I plan to keep this system going untill I see there is no bad roots under my plants.
I currently FOLAR FEED the plants as many times a day as i can.
I also FOLAR SPRAY the plants with regular distilled water to wash away the unused nutrients at the end of the day.

I don't know when i can go back to feeding them via resivior, but my theory is if I starve the pathogen using only water and H2O2(which will acutally kill the pathogen) I hope I can kill the pathogen by not giving it nutrients.

SO DON'T add plants to your system, untill you have treated them with some kinda treatment for a week or two. I would suggest H2O2 watering the plant in a hydro system by its self or something.
I washed the roots off, but that wasn't good enough.

A big symptom of you having a root pathogen, is the leaves turn yellow or even white. My new growth on the grean bean, was pure white, untill I found a way to start killing the pathogen. Then after a day and 1/2 the new white leaf started to take on a yellow then green tint, indicating that my method is working.

No. The primary interest of perekiopsis here is for use as a grafting root stock.

recalcitrant said:
-pereskiopsis has mescaline in it?



The answer is yes, but in minute quantities.

is it in large enough quantity to extract it? it would be far easier to grow that and get mesc and jsut have peyote doing its thing. have peresk. extractions ever been done? any other things that would need to be removed that may make teh plant harmfull?

It would not be worth extracting. Mescaline is present at such low levels (if at all) that even as fast as it grows it would never be a practical source. The Trichocereus species are the most consistant alkaloid producers.
