    I have a bunch of those on my porch. One of them is over 4'. I'll take some pics in a little while.

    Thats awesome man. My boy has huge bastards at his house in CA. I live in a bad climate for cacti. So they only get outside in the summer and sit in my window for most of the year

    I had a spot where I used to live where I had a cluster of about 8-10 San Pedro growing. Fairly potent specimens as well and I didn't have to tend to them besides exploring their psychoactivity ;)

    That pup on the right doesn't look too healthy.

    Yea that pup died unfortunately. Actually all those pedro's in the second photo met an unexpected demise. My ex threw them at me one day and they are now dead.

    That's unfortunate, is that how you discovered how prickly they are?

    Yep that is how. I pricked myself a little today while I was unwrapping them to take the pic. It reminded me of a pot and cacti hitting my back

    Wow does your ex play softball? Those cacti aren't exactly light and definitely not the optimal shape for throwing accurately.

    How do you get them to pup ? Some of them have formed pups on their own, but I don't know how to encourage them.

    It was a pretty small pot. The small pedro hit me.

    Take a knife and cut a 12+ inch portion off the top. Let that sit for 3-4 weeks to heal the wound. Then you can plant the new pup.

    You mean a cutting.

    Therer are ways to make it pup without a cutting, but I don't know what they are. I'll ask Cactus Dan.
