Trichocereus terscheckii and hybrids thereof

[Wakinyan]

Thought I would start this thread for those that had an interest in growing T. terscheckii or hybrids thereof. If you think it might be cool to have a central place to place terscheckii hybrids or pure species terscheckii please share your pictures here.

My little T. scopulicola x T. terscheckii are a work in progress as you can see from this tiny one grafted today. I'll come back and give updates every month or so. Suffice it to say I know many of you have much better and larger specimens than my wee ones, so please share if you dare:thumb_up: .

I have two Terscheckiis. Here's a pic of the larger one:

First, let me thank you for posting your Trichocereus terscheckii. I'd love to see more people posting their T. terscheckii in here. I know we aren't the only ones growing these out.

Next, let me give you a one week update on Trichocereus scopulicola x T. terscheckii. This may or may not be the exact same one I posted last week. I have a few of these to say the least all grafted on the same day and in the same container.

I can honestly say, that for me, scopulicola x terscheckii is one of the fattest cacti hybrids I have grown and the ribs are so full it makes you want to squeeze them. Every time I look at my scopulicola x terscheckii hybrids I fall a bit more in love with them. Spines on a scopulicola x terscheckii are super thick and dense and do not budge when you grab them.

Here's the scopulicola X terscheskii I'm taking care of today

Looks like its leaning a bit more to scopulicola side of things ..

Giving it a bit less on the nutrients now as its got a little yellowing
