hi my friends,can you help me?
see this one

[Pilif]

a close-up shot would be nice, but from here i'd say Ferocactus hamatacanthus

[CACTI1]

I'm not sure,because this fruit does not look like other fero's fruit.

[majcka]

How about Sclerocactus spinosior ?

[CACTI1]

No majcka Sclerocactus spinosior hasn't fruit.

No majcka Sclerocactus spinosior hasn't fruit.

Sclerocactus spinosior does form fruit, however I think their fruits are more elongated than the one on your plant. It does look like a Sclerocactus to me, though. Either a Sclerocactus, Glandulicactus or Ancistrocactus.

[CACTI1]

I'm still not sure.
However,
thank you guys.

Not Sclerocactus. Hamatacactus hamatacanthus (Ferocactus hamatacanthus) definitely, without question.

I agree with Peterb.....Ferocactus hamatacanthus ssp. hamatacanthus.....Here's a pic

[CACTI1]

I don't think this is a fero,ferocactus hamatacanthus fruits color is green, yellow-green, or olive but this fruit color is different.

Your plant is definitely, unequivocally, without question, certainly, absolutely, positively Ferocactus hamatacanthus. haha. End of story. Absolutely certain. No doubt or question.

Also, hamatacanthus fruit turns reddish brown or brown as it ripens.

Anyway, your plant is absolutely hamatacanthus. Definitely.
