Is it a Gymnocalycium? I love gymnos. But I love matucanas too. Not sure what it is.

i knew you would say that
they are matucana species, thats for sure... i'd guess madisonorum because that is the only member of the genus which i am familiar with.

Looks like matucana to me. They are commonly mistaken for lophs to the untrained eye. Pull out the spines . Its well worth it for $3. And for the love of God, get some lophs mang .

pencil eraser size
EG, i was gonna say ill just cut the spines
anyway, i was at homedepot and saw these and recalled a thread recently about "loph look-a-likes" and instantly thought HORY CLAP those look like peyote.
so i think ill go and get the 3 nicest ones if they still have them.
they are at a store at low altitude, but will be calling there new home 3200'

Well fuck! Why are you telling them about the secret society, just me? Now we have to kill everyone who reads this thread .
Actually lophs are easily aquired. Just be aware of the risks. I've got some from all over the globe .

Possession, drug smuggling, RICO, and probably about 10 other crimes over one little plant. Silly IMO, but yeah, you've been warned. Apparently I'm not scared . You can get them from within the US, but be prepared to get price raped. I looked around for two months before I bought one. I was nervous as hell.

The way the guy talked it was given to him, a present I wouldnt mind getting haha. Until that day i'll stick with seeds. Does the US hold peyote as a high issue? I don't hear about busts often.

The reason you dont hear about customs/postal busts is because the pkgs aren't detectable by dogs and machines designed for ellicit drugs (coke, meth, pot, heroin) or radiation. The biggest issue is whether the seller uses phytosanitary certificates (CITES). If they do, don't use them. You will get caught. The shipping price is a good indicator. I got 20 lophs averaging about 1.5cm, mailed for about $12 US. They came from Europe. If you get some from Italy its a little more usually. IDK why.
There is 10 of them. Anyway, I've never had one problem. With any item of this nature, plz contact the seller, and if they don't get back with you promptly, move on.

Brits are awesome, so are the french, and canada ay!! Canada is awesome. America on the other hand has the highest population of retarded voters anywhere. We saw that in 2000 and 2004...But at least we dont have "Blair".

Ok, I don't think i have given you any reason to do such a thing. And I know you no longer have tony blair, but we never had him, and that was a blessing... Dude, I totally love Western Europe. I spent 5years in Germany as child, and traveled all over.. I would give anything to move back.. No hostility needed my friend.
