SG01 Medusa
Description
Specific botanical details such as rib count, spine length, spine color, areole characteristics, and glaucous epidermis color are not documented in the current community records. However, as a selection from Icaros DNA seed, it is genetically a *Trichocereus peruvianus* phenotype.
History & Origin
SG01 Medusa was selected as a “keeper” phenotype from a population of approximately 1,000 seedlings. The plants were grown from Icaros DNA seed sourced from the vendor Zen Seeds via eBay. Initial cultivation and grow-out of this clone is credited to the Reddit user Starseedcreator.
Cultivation Notes
No clone-specific cultivation requirements have been recorded. Standard care for columnar *Trichocereus* (*T. peruvianus*) applies: utilize a highly gritty, well-draining soil mix, water deeply only when the substrate has dried completely, and provide strong, filtered light to full sun depending on regional intensity.
