Got my hands on this little thing today thinking its a stenocereus pruinosus but not sure.
Any thoughts?
And would it work to cut it down to get rid of the weak growth?

Patern looks about right.

Re: Stenocereus Pruinosus
Yes stenocereus pruinosus does look right. Should be ok to chop the nice looking top off to re-root. You may wanna keep the bottom to harvest the new offsets it will grow too.

I would have guessed Polaskia chichipe with that pattern.
Re: Stenocereus Pruinosus
I love the pattern on mine aswell <3 its very beautiful, id chop it and reroot it will make a nice looking plant after the skinny base is gone but Save it for offsets like adetheproducer said!

I'm also thinking it's likely a Polaskia, but not really sure. Definitely needs to be cut off and re-rooted.
