Used fruit Punnett's, and used clear cake containers for humidty. I mist them regularly. They just won't grow much.????

@charlescarabott7692 Жыл бұрын

I think that mescaline content isint a question of if it's Pachanoi, Peruvian or Bolivian but the the conditions that the cactus is kept. Alkaloids are produced as a way to protect the plant from drought and excessive heat. Maybe even from cold. I keep my san Pedros in as much natural desert conditions as possible. They adapt to it and become much stronger and tougher then those grown in much less demanding conditions

Lophophora is my favorite in my opinion. Trichoceres is too easy to grow. Lophophora isnt nearly as slow as a grower as ariocarpus. It actually grows pretty fast whenever the care is well. To keep spidermites off spray/drench really well when watering. Water on the skin is good for them. Japan and Thailand have really figured out how to grow them.
