    Hey guys,
    I believe this is San Pedro, would like some confirmation.
    Or if I need to be told it's not, I'd like to know too :)

    Thanks

    Nope, it's from an internet auction site.
    Otherwise I'd take a pic from the top :)

    yes..that ones a better choice to use for an auction....it doesnt appear to be as old as the other one...less suspicion of being a scam

    There is actually a movie that makes all sorts of mention of San Pedro.

    Some columnar cacti look fairly similar but I agree with NoxiousGas, it looks like San Pedro.

    those look like what is growing in my yard and I definitely know those are good. ;)
    a couple of mine are about 6' now with babies popping up from the base.

    if you've ever seen them in the wild they have a layer of white alkaloid under the skin, if you see one which is solid green it's immature and useless - they need to grow in immense heat and sun - little greenies that start out at home depot aren't gonna do it.

    If my calculations serve me correctly, I'd say St. Peter.
    Seems like everyone has come to that conclusion already.
