Josue Pach
Partially documented
Also written as Josue
Josue Pach started as an unnamed San Pedro from Exotic Gardens. It was housed at one grower's property on behalf of another and labelled simply Josue, which is how it got its name; it has since been used in breeding, and hybrid seed from it circulates. The description on record is a comparison rather than a measurement: growers call it clean and Juul's-like, meaning thick stems, blue-green and very short spines.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.

Of the 9 things this page says, 9 are marked as something we cannot confirm. Where a line is not settled, it says so underneath.
No source names a mother or a father for this one.
Origin
Sourced originally as an unnamed pachanoi and held at a grower's property labelled simply "Josue", then bred and distributed through two named growers.
no source says whether it is seed-grown or a cutting line
No source in this library records a cross for Josue Pach. Nobody names a mother or a father for it, and no other entry here names it as a parent.
That is the record, not an oversight: of the 749 names in this library, 693 have no recorded relation either. Most named clones were selected, cut and passed along without anyone writing down what they came out of. A parent goes in here when a source states it and never because a name looks like one — a wrong pedigree would travel further than a blank one, because pedigrees get copied.
If you know where it came from, tell us — a person reads everything before it appears.
The longer version
The plant came from Exotic Gardens with no name on it.Reported, but not confirmed.
It was kept at Mitchell Fortner's property on behalf of a grower identified only as JE, where the label simply read Josue.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.
Mitchell Fortner and Josue Torres later used it in breeding and passed it on, and hybrid seed from it now circulates.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.

Growers call it a clean, good-looking pachanoi close in appearance to Juul's Giant, meaning thick stems, blue-green skin and very short spines.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.
What the sources say
From an unverified, bot-assembled wiki page. Detailed morphology is thin — the comparison to Juul's Giant is essentially the whole description on offer.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.
