Migrated topic.

So , i think these are bridgesii , i just want someone who knows what they are talking about to help me confirm before i consume one. I'll be planting the other. These really have been ravaged by the wilds; missing spines, rot here and there, a white fluff growing on some parts (washed off) and some scars. But im sure theyll still be good, if they are bridge.

i also plucked off those nuggets which im going to try grow
:)
thank you

Click to expand...

please do yourself a favor and cut it up into pieces instead. it will be less slimy.
 
eat the pieces plain? how big? and no need to dry them out? how long would drying out take?

Also , one website said the 600 grams of Bridgesii i was planning to eat would have about 720mg of mesc in it, sounds about right?
dont think ima eat that much haha
 
OH man, if i was you, i would have cut that bit with the pups "nuggets" off and planted it, it would have grown rather quickly, anyway, yeah looks good :)
 
infected with scale and maybe witches broom as well
guaranteeing them before intro to garden is advisable
 
dg's saying it would be wise to clear up any infectious diseases those plants have before contaminating your garden. Probably its a good idea just to keep your new plants healthy anyways. sup mister dg :)
 
Ok, cool, thank you.
what do u say ,plant the one cactus upright, or lay it down on its side?
 
if its pupping, plant upright, from what ive seen, most people plant upright anyway but you can always experiment, theres no set rules to follow with this. :)
 
also - 15CM cuttings when planting. Not less, but can be more if you want.

Lots of 15cm cuttings would maximise growth rate overall
