Editing Stenocereus pruinosus (section)

== Propagation ==

A dissertation experiment compared storage and burial of ''S. pruinosus'' seed. Seed held ex situ at 25 ± 3 °C, 20 ± 2% controlled humidity, in darkness, and at 7–9% water content retained viability through 24 months in that experiment. Buried seed began losing viability after six months; most had died by the end of the rainy season and none survived to the end of the dry season. These are condition-specific storage results, not a universal seed-storage recipe or sowing schedule. <sup id="cite_ref-4">[[#cite_note-4|[4]]]</sup>

The landrace study concerns selection and morphological variation rather than cutting, rooting, grafting, or rootstock treatments. Propagation method should therefore remain tied to a documented provenance or trial instead of being treated as an interchangeable species rule. <sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>
