| Nice work Mutant  That loph will flower this season (your spring) just keep it in the same place, don't turn it or move it too much and I'm positive it will flower in the next few months. After if flowers for the first time it don't matter what you do it will go nuts  _________________ My Cacti Blog, please come visit me.

|   that gymno is budding like mad and is less than a year old from seed! Incredible, I doubt they will be all flowers, but, quite a sight. Maybe I should clean off that web now...  lopho on echinopsis  same echninopsis stockplaying tricks on astro scion with damaged apical meristem.  split. cereus stock was fertilised some days before the split. Scion continued to grow, the rot infection seems to have caloused...   trichocereus on pere, cut but left some tricho on. |

| Sorry about the loph  Watering too much too early in the growing season is the problem. I've never had trouble with Lophs splitting. Usually Turbinicarpus or Cintia. Grafted Cintia seems to split whenever I water it ?? _________________ My Cacti Blog, please come visit me.

| Thanks guys, it means a lot coming from you OK here the same gymno on pere. I have some strange thing here.  the tip looks..... split! is it possible that a scion splits at the top?!??!  anyways, this is the second one budding. I am begining to think selinicereus is faster than pere, even though this was done somewhat later than the selini one.  |
