History

Psycho0 – Psycho0 is a Trichocereus bridgesii (Bolivian Torch) that was originally distributed by a SAB member of the same name. This member was able to distribute some cuttings to the community before his untimely death. Psycho0 is a sought after clone that has a very distinct, 3 yellow spine, formation. It is a gorgeous clone.

J18 – J18 is a pure Trichocereus bridgesii that was cloned by Rodni Chisar, a famous grower from Australia. Unfortunately, I am unable to find any decent snaps of the original J18 clone which is a shame because he was a gorgeous plant.

Locality

Trichocereus bridgesii are native to Bolivia (duh) and Argentina.

History

Tr. bridgesii was first introduced to the Western world by a German botanist Friedrich Ritter who studied various cactus species in South America. He then named the species after his close friend, the British consul in Bolivia, Alan Bridges.

They quickly gained popularity over the years and have become statement pieces in many homes across the world.

Steps For Rooting

Once the cut is received, place it around 1/2 inch to 1 inch in a pot of substrate. I use wooden kebab skewers to hold up the piece. Water lightly and you should start getting new root growth within a few weeks to a few months depending on conditions.

An alternative way would be to stick them in perlite and wait for them to root, once roots form you can re-pot.

All plants sold are strictly for garden / ornamental purposes, not for human consumption. We are here to cultivate these beautiful plants and spread them as far as we can, nothing outside of growing (all things related to growing) will be tollerated.
