This is a new website that documents the lineage of San Pedro clones. So far they have 46. I'm not sure how rigorous or well-documented is it, but I think it's interesting: ARKHÉ · The Trichocereus Archive

Thanks for sharing it! I'm one of the people behind the project. Your doubt is exactly the right question: rigor is the whole point of the archive. Every entry carries a verification level based on the sources behind it, so anyone can see what's confirmed and what isn't. That's also why we're going slowly.
Arkhé is meant to be a global catalogue, open to the whole community and built by all of us. If you grow Trichocereus with known provenance, whether it's one plant or a whole collection, you can add it with photos and whatever you know about its origin:

Document a Trichocereus clone in the archive: what you call it, where it comes from and what you can show. Reviewed before anything is published.

Each contribution is reviewed and attributed to you either by name or anonymously, according to your choice, and anything you cannot fully document still counts, it just appears with a lower verification level.
The quality of an archive is not measured by having no mistakes, but by how it corrects them when they appear. If you spot a clone you think is wrong, tell us here or through the website form and we'll review it.

Are you aiming to also document specimens with a known geographic originthat aren't a named clone? I have a few cuttings from big mother plants that come from Southern and Eastern Spain, but they're not a named clone and I'm not even sure some of them were planted by people. Would that be info you're aiming to collect as well?
Also, are you aware of @Loveall 's project to collect data on mescaline yields through a standardized CIELO procedure and questionnaire? Both projects could complement each other very nicely IMO!
Hi, I saw your website, seems that you are located in Spain like me, I also noticed two specimens from an old friend of me. Quim Tarinas. Nice to see his cactus cause I saw them in his house lot of years ago. I also have a big collection of San Pedro, If you see Quim , give him regards from Nacho in the Pyrenees, he is a good old friend.Thanks for sharing it! I'm one of the people behind the project.

Of course, it's interesting to document specimens with known geographic origin. The form has the option to document it as a specimen gone wild outside its habitat. We have quite a few records documented along these lines, such as the case of the Carbonell: Carbonell · Trichocereus peruvianus · Arkhé ...The records accept review and new contributions from other users, and if someone recognizes the same clone under another name, the new information is added to the record, as in the case of the Cerdanyola/pedregar collection: Cerdanyola A3 · Trichocereus pachanoi · Arkhé
It would be great to have records of your plants and their origin.
On the other hand, I'm not familiar with @Loveall project, but we're open to synergies with other projects. In fact, it's fantastic when this happens.

Thanks, Nacho! Yes, good observation, their cacti are in the archive. We’ll be sure to pass on your regards.
By the way, if you have any cactus from your collection with a known origin, it would be great to add them to the archive too!
