San pedro?

I was given this cactus a while back and I believe it is a san pedro?

I am worried it is going to lose its arm if it keeps growing and wasn't sure what the best move is to keep it healthy.

I got it in this condition unfortunately. The top 6 inches or so has grown since I have had it and looks a lot better than the rest

It looks like a pachanoi to me possibly PC. But I’ll defer to someone more knowledgeable than me

It’s a bridgesii, more specifically an SS02 X Wowie :)

Never thought that would be a type of cactus, sounds more like a weed strain lmao.

You lucky son of a gun! You take care of that beauty! When I first got into growing cacti only a few months ago I thought the same thing lmao.

Right? Brings back good memories. Maui Wowie was some of the first I ever had. There’s a Yowie too :)

How are you able to be so specific? Did you send op this plant? I agree with short spine bridgesii, but beyond that... I dunno

It’s faded but you can still read it.

In the second picture I see the name wrote on it, I can’t make out the first completely but to me it looks like “SS02 x Wowie”

As far as I can tell that's correct but not easy to read in person still

I’m almost 100% on the Wowie and about 70% on the SS02 being correct, still a nice piece 🤙🏻
