Roots Without Rot! The Safest Method to Root San Pedro Cuttings
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 лют 2024
- In this video, I will show how I replant my most important cuttings, those that I definitely would not want to rot. This is a technique I’ve come up with after rooting hundreds of cuttings over the years, and although it’s a bit more work than just planting the cutting in the soil and be done with it, this method will almost completely remove the risk of rot, while ensuring faster rooting, which is key to prevent etiolation.

If you have a question, I will only reply to questions about cultivation. Please no questions about the mind expanding properties of these cacti. - Навчання та стиль
Jerry gave me the confidence to grow initially and cultivating trichocereus has become a big part of my life since then and brings me fulfillment every day.
Selective breeding: You are right to partner with a community that uses the cacti in ceremonies.
What constitutes a strong psychedelic experience may vary from person to person and occasion, but if all participants in the ceremony are allowed to rate the strength (from 1 to 5) then the average/mean value will be a good guide as to which cacti are the strongest and most valuable to cross with each other.
In this way, new even more potent strains can be produced.
Great Job Jerry, your videos helped me on my very first sow of seeds. and I am grateful for your channel for having a big impact on my life
What a masterclass. Thanks for sharing this, and for taking the time to show the results and techniques visually.
Great video and I’ve tried your technique with the volcanic rocks and it works flawlessly with cuttings, thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge, Hunter Trail from Mississippi!
Thank you for sharing the technique! A true wealth of knowledge on your channel. All the best
And thank you for watching the videos my friend, I'm glad you enjoy them :)
That's a really smart idea on rooting cuts right on top of the soil. I like that a lot. Beautiful big plants man!
Thanks! The big Terscheckii plants are unfortunately is not mine. I did get a large cutting from it, all the rest of the plant was destroyed by bulldozers the day after I took the cutting.
True mastery!
Awesome video thank you so much for sharing
Thanks for another great video, I'll give that rooting technique a try in the spring ❤
Thank you for sharing this great idea. I experimented with a similar idea for a much smaller cutting. I put about two inches of cactus soil (similar to your soil / perlite mix but perhaps more organic material. Then I poured about 1.5-2inches perlite on top, then I place the scabbed cutting on top of the perlite then fill perlite around the next 2-3 inches of green flesh. In this set up I water occasionally so I see a bit of water come out the bottom - then let it dry for maybe a week, then water again. The idea is to keep humidity in the soil to stimulate root growth, yet the perlite under the cut and on the sides dries quickly and allows air circulation. In 2-3 months I had a good amount of roots and some corking started. When I planted in soil I also kept rocks near the base of the green flesh as it had not corked entirely. 😊
Thanks for the Video Jerry. I just potted my cuttings the old way where I mix vulcanic rock with soil mix. Next cutting I would like to try your new method. Cheers!
Terracotta pots and dry soil.. simple as that, experimented with even not allowing cuttings to callous after harvest and still never had rot, "obviously letting them callous is preferred though" but either way without moisture in the soil nothings going to rot, Cacti can stand long long times without water and its long enough to allow the cutting to root without effecting its overall health, when they start to root water
This is genius
Goddamn those Terschekii are MASSIVE.
Those aren't.
Wow I have learned more from San Pedro Mastery, Cactus Quest, Cactus Jerk, Liam from australia man you guys are the G.O.A.T.S of the cacti-verse.
Anyone root cuttings Indoors?
Im curious how this can be done and if u need a light or can u just do it in a window
Hi, thanks for the video. Can I ask what are these black pots with the ripples you use for replanting cuttings? Any idea where I can get them.
I wish I lived in Spain !!! (In Canada now !)
My san pedros are so thin and etiolated hahah but I love them anyway.
Definitely get an indoor grow light and do an indoor grow. You can get stellar results.
Hello my friend! I have a question! I just chopped two healthy pups of my TBM clone B. I used a very small amount of IBA rooting hormone. I know TBM are more squishy than other varieties generally, but these pups have kinda shriveled and got squishier but aren’t showing visual signs of any damage.
My pups are about .75-1 inch in diameter or like 20-25mm. Very small but all healthy before cutting. The plant was kind of dehydrated before cutting the pups.
My question is this, do you recommend taking cuttings from hydrated plants or dryer plants first? Mine are well fed it had just been a few weeks between watering and I plan on taking more cuttings soon and I want to know if it’s prudent to water beforehand as it’s just now approaching springtime where they’ll start getting some sun to wake them up from indoor dormancy. They’ve gotten some sun on the occasional warm day, but they’re fairly dormant right now.
Any response appreciated. You’re a wonderful person and I appreciate your content tremendously.

Have you ever tried indolebutyric acid for roots? That or indoleacetic acid. These chems I have success with and it's the main ingredient in root hornone that is for sale. Also there's another one, but I can't remember it's name. ❤❤❤
How much sun is okay for the two weeks after the cut? Full sun is fine?
It seems like you could do steps 2 and 3 at the same time. Why not cork it with lava rocks while it is sitting on the surface and rooting?
Perhaps this is basically your old technique, but I'm not sure why your new one is better.
oh oh, maybe the absence of lava rocks means the soil around the cut end dries out much faster, reducing the chance of rot. Is that it?
@@HeyHeyHarmonicaLuke There seems to be more roots when you separate the steps. Maybe because the air flow is better? Plus, when you have a lot of new cuttings, it's very easy and quick to just lay them on top of soil, and you'll worry about giving them a proper repotting (step 3) at a later date.
Thanks man I lost a bunch of cacti in the freeze in texas 2 years ago and this winter i lost a few more from rot..... how do you deal with freezing temperature cause they chemtrail the sky above dallas fort worth texas i tried brimging them in but thd got rot and the ones I left outside froze and turned to mush.....the freeze drop to freezing in like 5 hours.
I use hard chore leather glove they feel great and the leather swing is wY better than a plastic spray on wooden gloves....
How often do you preforms cuttings?
If your plants are in pots, bring them inside your garage and put just enough heating so that it won't freeze in there. If they are in the soil, then you can try covering the tops with polystyrene cups, also covering the entire plants with a blanket.
@@sanpedromastery6262 Thank You!
@@sanpedromastery6262 ive got some that are like 4 feet
How cold did it get? In pots they can handle to around 25 before they start dying and in ground around to 15. It's on you to check the weather forecast days or even a week ahead of time to see how cold it will be and that will give you time to bring them in if you need to. I'm in San Antonio and I usually have to bring them in once a year sometimes twice a year when gets under 25 and then I bring them back out after the cold front passes. The only other option is putting them in a greenhouse in the winter and putting a heater in there. They really can't survive in Texas in ground without winter protection, the only spot in Texas is the southern tip around the Mexico border because it rarely freezes down there.
Do you sell San Pedro seedlings? I finally have been successful at growing my first seedling and would like to start a family!
What was that pot that opened!?!
How do I gets seeds from Jerry?
Would wax be a good way to seal the cutting. I've been drying one for a week and a half. It dried and sunk in very slightly. I barley pressed that area and it cracked open. Will wax cause block roots? Do roots only grow from center area. If wax is good I'll just do that. Maybe hydrogen peroxide spray first, dry then wax
Dont use wax it will rot the callous needs to breath and dry out!
How can you be contacted? How can one buy your seeds?
Dat plants luk ausom bro!
Thanks buddy! It a fun day trip getting these plants with you :)
How would I contact you
I have read that some shamans determine the cactus by the number of spines per areola
What do you mean by "determine the cactus" ? Determine what ? Age , species? What ??
@@jaimedelgado7529potency.. duh
@@jaimedelgado7529 Given that they are "shamans", I suspect they are determining/choosing which plant is to be ingested. Just guessing.
Wish I could post pics
@@jaimedelgado7529 I think he meens potency and mescaline content
I know it seems absurd to suggest, but what about water without submerging…just keeping the absolute tip wet to facilitate intake periodically…between evaporation and refills.
I noticed some of the succulent community does this so I tried with a prickly pear (would be foolish with better cacti) and so far the roots are taking off well. Maybe a test drive with a PC, or is this just beyond dumb to even consider in the first place?
