Two different clones, one in th e back that is more blue is the one I think has to be non PC with more confidence, to me the v notch is able to be seen but I would like other opinions.

nice cuts those are real pachanois, cant say for sure which one, maybe altmans if it is monstrose it would be semi-monstrose which is common of that clone. does look a little different from altmans clone though.

Those look like the Altman's.

From what I've gathered from other growers, there are 2 Altman's clones that look incredibly similar. One grows normally and never shows any monstrous growth.

The other one can do lots of rib changing, show monstrous growth, and terminate in a variety of ways. 1) normal termination 2) "butthole" looking termination 3) crest termination.

As far as what is pictured above, I'm not sure which of the 2 clones they are. Either way, both clones make for gorgeous plants that grow fast and in relatively large diameter.

I bought a cutting today I believe my be Trichocereus pachanoi   "Real" pachanoi  ?

WHAT DO YOU EXPERTS SAY ? Real ?

The cutting has more rounded ribs 7 .
It had just bloomed and the "HAIR" where it bloomed are almost black ?

 I believe  the hairs on a PC clone are white or light brown?

The cutting is from a ten foot cactus that was knocked down buy wind storm .

The cutting is "23 tip 7 ribs , below is a photo of cutting and another of the cactus blooming 10 days before storm.

thanks happyconcacti. sending you good karma`
 the the seller  had some nice big middle cuts . but my budget was low so I just got the tip cut .

I wish I knew more about its origins , per haps I will send the seller a message .

UPDATE: I asked the seller a few questions they did not know much about the cactus just that it was over 20 years old and indeed the hair around the blooms are black.

Amazing, just an amazing post OP. I remember researching this subject several years ago. I just came back to it recently, haha.
The pictures sure are helpful but I couldn't ever ID them before. The one Phrase
Take note of the saw shape of the ribs, the upward facing areoles, and the consistant length of the spines.
I was looking for something this concise when trying to tell the difference between a clone x infinity and something new.
Thank you, who wants the same exact clone when there's so much variety?
I'll be looking into sources if anyone wants to PM me. :) Thanks

I purchased my first two cacti for my collection and received them in the mail just a few days ago. I wouldn't mind having my pachanoi identified as well. The add specified they grew it from their own confirmed non-pc pachanoi. What do you guys think?
