ID please. Possible hylocereus

The three cuttings (marked 1 and 2) definitely came off of a hylocereus, but the extra ribs and extreme spinatation is throwing me for a loop.... I'm pretty sure the ones marked "others" are the same cactus just reacted different to the growing condition?

Re: Lobivia, Echinopsis and unknown

As the moderator of this section I get the increasing feeling you are abusing the current rules with a continues stream of identification requests. You play fine by the rules of this forum, but that does not mean you are helping getting down the unhappiness other forum members have with this sectio...

Hylocereus issues

Team!
Can someone explain why the thorns on my hylocereus are so large? Also, I overwinter in a basement with no light and around 65 degrees, is this good enough? The thorns developed in summer.

Re: Home away from home

There is definitely alot going on in there! Its mainly for plants that don't overwinter well the way I do the other ones.

Re: Seedlings winter '20

Yes, I got a 1020 tray and lid, then I put that entire thing in a clear tote to help keep in some heat. My house tends to get chilly at night which I really don't like :(
