Hello Everyone, Happy Day!💜✨
We hope that everyone is very well on this day as always today we have a beautiful topic that I know will be interesting for each of the readers who lend themselves to read it invited them to stay with us.
Today we will talk about: Thorns in cacti, why do you have them and for what?🌿
Many times perhaps we have read or heard from third parties that the thorns in cacti are used to protect themselves from possible predators that are found in their natural habitat, if it is true they use it that way Since they live in desert places where water It is not very abundant, it is from there where the animals try to approach to eat the juicy liquid of their internal structure, but also the thorns have a natural utility in them that works in the following way.
There are infinities of cacti worldwide, either in Latin America, Africa, among others, each of them with different characteristics, either by color, size, thickness and height, also cacti vary in terms of their spines, some of them are elongated, pointed, others are flattened. As well as flat, others are long but not pointed, in the time that we have been cultivating cacti here in our nursery we have noticed that each one of them has something in particular, not only do they change in size but also change their morphology, that is, there are some that they are very thorny and others that you can touch without problems with your fingers.
Cacti have an elongated stem as we have said before and others are a bit thicker, the thorns work as a way of protecting themselves from the sun's rays as a protective barrier that they cannot pass and burn their delicate stem so remember that cacti have water inside many of them are exposed to extreme weather conditions that is why over the years they accumulate water inside, there are places where they live that only receive water once a year that is why in their internal system can retain this precious liquid for a time so that when the times come when they cannot receive natural hydration they can feed back with internal storage.
Just as there are cacti with thorns, there are also some that do not have such long and pointed thorns that you can touch with your finger without problem, this varies depending on the area where they are well, be it in very arid climates or hot climates, the thorns have been Like saying leaves on their stems, it is important to note that the morphology of cacti allows them to absorb the nocturnal humidity that occurs in arid places in this way they can also hydrate their interior for the possible arid climate that occurs during the day This helps them to be able to stay for a real time, which is something very interesting to be able to know each of these species. Cacti is the scientific name given to cacti.
A publication that we are making you may notice several types of cactus species I know elongated or round type we must be careful when working with some of them since we can acquire possible injuries and we do not know how to manipulate them in the proper way one of the tics that we can leave if at any time they work with them and they perceive that some thorns remain in their hands is the following, take white glue and place it in the place where they have the thorns let it dry for about 5 10 minutes until you see a transparent film then remove and they will see that each one of the thorns is coming out without any type of problems.
There is something super important that we do not want to stop saying before finishing this article and it is that just as there are thorns, cacti also have little cottons that come out on their surface this also allows them to take care of the sun's rays, with these small characteristics of these types of plants definitely that we see that God's creation is totally magical because it not only produces plants but also gives them the strategies to survive the extreme climates to which they are exposed.
We are truly happy to be able to share all these materials with you so that just as we know about the plants that are wonderful to have inside the house, you can have cacti without problems in your home, they can remain in closed places and withstand the strongest climates. Unlike succulents that are a bit more delicate.
¡We do not see in an upcoming Edition!

@cactusgens , Always showing a charm in the quality of his work, the impressive images, we can observe in detail and feel close to the cactus.
The colors of its thorns are a tenderness in my opinion. Who wouldn't want to buy various types of cacti?
The subject of its morphology is intriguing, learning something new with you.
Thank you for the advice to remove the thorns, if they remain in our hands and of course for all the material you teach, it is extraordinary.
We are delighted with this new post, and by beautiful images of different cacti.
Greetings.
