Need some help with my San Pedro...Please!~
    #5906863 - 07/27/06 08:53 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

hi..guys

I could really use some help with my San Pedro...

Here is the problem...

I recieved a rooted 28" San Pedro cactus today via UPS.
They fucking smashed the living crap out of it!~
:mad2:
I'm so fucking pissed off...I can't even begin to tell you how much!~
I'm calling UPS in the moring and raking them over the coals!~

Anyway...
The tip was smashed in...and there is huge crak almost all the way through it in the lower section.

I'd like some advice on what to do...
as far as saving what I can.
I'd like to re-pot it...and grow it out in the future.

So here are some pictures of the UPS fuck up...
and look it over and tell me what would be the best ways to cut it.
then I have to let the cut ends dry out and heal...for how long?
and does the rooted end have to heal if I cut that at the break point?
basically tell me what you would do to save it...growing wise.
please!~

I'm a shroom guy...not a cactus guy!~


full view...


the smashed tip...


the lower section that is almost cracked all the way through...


another angle...



Please help!~

thank you!~

much  :heart:

and if you ever need any mushroom help...
just ask!~

I would cut it at that bottom cut and let the top part sit to dry for about a week or two and then plant it. The top should be fine but you could also cut that off and do the same thing :thumbup:

SaturnGlass's advice is good. i would probably go ahead and cut that little tip off and let it pup. just remember to keep the cuts straight and smooth.
very nice catus, its a shame they damaged it.

Once you've planted the roots make sure you wait & let the (formerly) top & middle bits scab over where you cut them. Don't put them into the soil (or whatever medium) while they're still wet otherwise its likely they will rot. Similarly try to avoid getting water on the cut on the bottom rooted section.

i'm no cactus expert but i think i would cut it like SaturnGlass said but lay both of the bigger sections horizontally on the growned to root and the little top section vertically...
i think you would get much more growing sections laying them falt on the growned (although it might take a little longer to root?)

either way you don't need to be worried at all... cacti are VERY hard to kill...

have fun!

i wanted to do that, but after research found that horizontal logging doesnt really produce any better, the pups will still form at the endmost areoles.

yeah I have started some laying down before...







that was a couple of years ago...

it's pretty nice now!~

:smile:





thanks for all the help...
I really appreciate it!~
:thumbup: :thumbup:

I followed Saturns advice...
with the cuts...and planted the bottom section with the root ball.

I cut the tip off that was damaged...it will probably just dry out.
oh well!~

The large section is in a box with crumpled newspaper...
I'll let that heal properly before re-potting it!~

I'm just sick over this!~
UPS can kiss my mother fucking ass!~
:mad2:
I'm calling them right now and going to tear someones ear off on the phone!~

I think the UPS guy threw the boxes over my 8' fence/gate!~
I have a dog...and have a sign on the front of the fence...
and I think what might have happened is...
the Driver was too scared to come inside the Gate!~
or...
some fucking asshole threw the box around down at the UPS warehouse or on the truck!~

both boxes of cactus were labeled in large letters...GLASS!~
:shocked:

either way they suck!~

and they ruined a beautiful large cactus that my friend sent to me!~

:frown:


nice to see you Lou!~
:smile:


thanks again!~

I'll update when the cactus starts doing something worth updating!~


much  :heart:
