| I have (10) 6 inch San Pedro (Trichocereus Pachanoi) cuttings. Since I live in NYC it is approaching winter time. I am not entirely sure how to grow start San Pedro in the winter because I won't be getting a lot of sun. My question is:
How long will San Pedro cuttings live for if I do not pot them and just store them?
If you have any knowledge on how to start San Pedro in the winter that would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Zach |

Like most cacti they can live for several years without roots or soil when kept at room temp or even better at ~50-60F.
If you keep them upright the cuttings might root under this condition till spring already.
But to be honest I hate giving this info to somebody who is interest especially in growing San Pedro! Jordi

| Jordi you are wise. But there are other plants out there that can do the same. Norma |

| Jordi, I don't understand your last comment. Should cuttings not be stored? Or are you implying that San Pedro a "bad" plant? Sorry I missed the boat entirely. |
