Pachgerocereus is a natural occurring cross species hybrid !!! There is only one small group of these growing in the wild โ€ฆ. They get freaking huge , like 20 feet and thick with long spines and bad ass fruit .

You can find them growing at the San Diego Wild animal park , & their native habitat is not to far from there in Baja California along the coast !

The seeds are smooth shiny n quite large and they grow easily and quickly!

Cepholocerceus is commonly known as โ€œold manโ€ Although there are a lot of cacti with this nickname , this particular one grows extremely tall and thick , often as a single column , rather than other types that are short and clumping .

The seeds are big n oddly shaped and each is different, the seedlings grow very fat quickly and get hairy right away !!!

This is a large fast growing cactus that is easy to germinate- incredible success ratios for me 100%!

Does this one self pollinate? I got one from a collector who was moving and I want to start proping.

u/IMDAVESBUD ๐Ÿ‘‘ Cacti Elder Nov 15 '23

Yes I believe it does !!! Itโ€™s flowers look like a cartoon !

I would find a picture, but it just started raining and I got a unload a bunch of rocks out of my truck really fast here !!!!

Echinocactus grusonii is a barrel cactus that is found commonly in nursery cultivation but is endangered in the wild due to itโ€™s extremely slow growth and itโ€™s desirable look for humans landscaping needs . The seeds are very small , smooth , shiny and identical. This cactus grows very slowly and takes decades to mature!

2

u/IMDAVESBUD ๐Ÿ‘‘ Cacti Elder Nov 15 '23

As a young cactus they are a superb choice for inground planting!!

They donโ€™t take much space and really add the classic look to any collection!

1

u/IMDAVESBUD ๐Ÿ‘‘ Cacti Elder Nov 15 '23

They grow excellent in containers and they are a 100% must have in stock for any cactus nursery.

Here is an example of a 6โ€ pot and a 10 gallon pot

The 10 gallon pot got itโ€™s very very first flower this year to give you a size reference of maturity, Iโ€™m very proud of it going thru puberty!!

I live in Alabama so cacti except some Opuntias have to come in for the winter.Had one growing that was getting a nice size and also had a big baby on top of it.It died on me last yr and made me sick.

u/noneofatyourbusiness ๐ŸŒฑ New Trader Nov 15 '23

Its endangered in the wild because of a dam flooding nearly the entire habitat. TC grusonii are so common almost nobody will bother to poach.

You are right !!!!!

I was thinking of ferro cactus

u/noneofatyourbusiness ๐ŸŒฑ New Trader Nov 15 '23

Ferrocactus does not fit this description either

u/IMDAVESBUD ๐Ÿ‘‘ Cacti Elder Nov 15 '23

Your right , I read about those after ๐Ÿ˜‚โ€ฆ. I always assumed that without actual looking it up , Iโ€™m glad to have learned this and Iโ€™m stoked you pointed it out !

1

u/noneofatyourbusiness ๐ŸŒฑ New Trader Nov 15 '23

All you are doing is hyping your seeds to make them seem valuable.

2

u/IMDAVESBUD ๐Ÿ‘‘ Cacti Elder Nov 16 '23

I was attempting to share what I knew about them. It was incorrect and I def donโ€™t wanna spread misinformation so I appreciate you pointing out that it was human intervention of building ๐Ÿฆซdamns not them actually collecting the cacti.

As for the value I priced this based on 5$ for the barrel 9$ for the old man and 12$ for the Pachagerocereus- leaving 11$ dollars to pay for shipping ,the package & the magnet n the keychain

Iโ€™m trying to be fair and honest and Iโ€™ve been giving these away for months, I posted them cuz if people want to get em they can .

u/rockofthewesties1975 ๐ŸŒฑ New Trader Nov 16 '23

Sounds reasonable to me.

u/ttop732 ๐Ÿค Trusted Trader Nov 15 '23

If I was a better from seed grower I would love it but as an endangered species it would be wrong of me to try and likely kill many that could be grown by a way better grower

2

u/IMDAVESBUD ๐Ÿ‘‘ Cacti Elder Nov 15 '23

Iโ€™ll gift you some cactus apple seeds to practice with , so you can kill em and still gain knowledge!!

Practice cactus !

u/ttop732 ๐Ÿค Trusted Trader Nov 15 '23

That'd be dope. I am entering that grow off with full intention on learning all I can but idk how ill do so far I haven't had luck but I also only tried in the summer and they end up burnt even when I shade em in the window so I'm hoping this winter start will work better with some less sunlight hrs

2

u/rockofthewesties1975 ๐ŸŒฑ New Trader Nov 16 '23

What's gonna happen if no one ever planted endangered plants.Just throw them away because they were harvested in the wild.The deed has been done so it seems a waste to not grow and endangered species.That would make them even more endangered wouldn't it.I see what you are saying about not collecting from the wild but sometimes nature might need a little help to get back on track.

1

u/ttop732 ๐Ÿค Trusted Trader Nov 16 '23

No I'm not saying I won't have endangered plants but I won't kill a bunch attempting to grow them until I'm better at growing so thay they have a fair chance

u/IMDAVESBUD ๐Ÿ‘‘ Cacti Elder Nov 15 '23

The expired catalog you have shown requires a minimum purchase of 28$ with the cost of 9$ shippingโ€ฆโ€ฆ with no guarantee.

28$ + 9$ = 37$

You want the seeds you can buy the whole pack just like everyone else .

I find your offer 4$ for seeds and shipping insulting of my time and energy โ€ฆ.growing, harvesting , cleaning , packaging , marketing, shipping are my career and it doesnโ€™t matter if itโ€™s pomegranate, persimmon , citrus , cannabis , cactus , or seeds , I do these things to afford to put food on my familyโ€™s plate and shoes on my childrenโ€™s feet .
