We’ve visited Leo’s farm twice and he’s is very generous with his time and knowledge. It’s a beautiful property and the plants are very well cared for. The cuttings I bought from them are very healthy and thriving.
I agree 100%. Thanks for watching.
Beautiful farm👌thanks for sharing this video. I’d like to visit Leo, what is the address? Thanks

Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching.
This was awesome! Very educational. I walked away with a lot of info but the one that stood out to me is to taking cuttings from the bottom.
Great to hear! Thanks for watching.
Wow!! Just wow!!! I am a fan of dragonfruit. Been eating it for years, but only recently started to grow them. This inspires me to grow even more.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Great videos thanks for sharing his farm! We're looking forward to visits the farm and buy yummy dragon fruits 😋!
Thanks for watching this! It's an excellent farm to visit.
I'm in the western part of Fallbrook and I'm just learning so much from your videos. Thank you. Been growing Avocados for years and the amount of water is killing me.
I've become obsessed with dragonfruit from a few Physical Graffiti cuttings a friend gave me. Can't wait to visit the farm!
Awesome. We are in Esco :)
Thank you for this educational and enjoyable video. I learned a lot and took a lot of notes. I’m a novice back yard gardener who hopes to someday create an orchard of many exotic and tropical fruit trees. I’m very new to dragon fruit growing, and your video helped me a lot. I’m forever grateful. Be blessed🙏🦋.
Thanks for the kind words and for the support.
Excellent information! Thanks and happy growing!
Thanks for watching!
Wow...just so cool..really good information and ideas.

Thanks for the quick response Paul keep the content coming 👍🏻
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT Looks like the page is not working any more. I can't find this product on their page nether. Any help?
Great video
Thanks!
Love it !!! So many varieties...... Dragon fruit growing is just started in India ..I don't know why they realized it so late because climate and soil is so good for dragon fruit in India ...south India to north India differs but over all good ....if you guys are curious just search in TH-cam "dragon fruit telugu" you will see bunch of videos ..you will see they use cement poles and rings etc one time huge investment to make the plants last for 30years... The market exponentially growing in India ....!!! They plant 500 poles per acre ..that means 2000 plants per acre ...yeilding 5ton to 10ton after 3 years old plant per acre !!!
That is awesome! Thanks, I'll check it out. They are very adaptable plants.
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT I live in Pennsylvania now ..just got my cuttings from Amazon ...will plant tommorow..excited ....my first time !!!
@@gvrdnnk3102 Good luck! Build some mobile trellises 🐉🐉
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT thanks :) ..just did pvc pipe for now .3 cuttings..planted a cutting not rooted ..hardly 2feet..so far I can't see nothing..I know I have to wait ..but I check every day 😀😀
@@gvrdnnk3102 good luck!
Hola, amigos, excelente video. Saludos
Thanks for watching!
Muy bien organizado el plantio . Saludos.
Thank you!
Amazing farm. I have learnt a lot from this video like take cuttings from bottom with dark green, and have to get more varieties. Trellis are so diverse and easy to do. What kind of wood did he use to make trellis? For the container pot, did he cut of the bottom or simply insert T-post thru the bottom of the pot?
Can I take cuttings and grow this month, or it is getting colder now and should wait for next May?
One the best videos on DF for sure. Thanks Guys!
Thanks for the kind words. He uses regular lumbar from Lowes or Home Depot. He doesn't like pressure treated wood. I take cuttings all year long but use a heating pad when the weather gets cold. Cuttings need to be rooted by the middle of October in my experience for optimal winter growth.
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT I assume you grow root cutting in soil not water. I am trying to grow them in water now - keep them in a bucket inside the house.
The Pitahaya red Leonard Is very beautiful 🔥.
I agree and have a trellis of my own :)
How did he get the u post through the pots?
Thank you for sharing! I will plant my dragon and try your method since my dragon always flowers but hardly becoming fruit.
Awesome! Try getting a Sugar Dragon to use as a pollen source.
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT, I have not seen a sugar dragon yet in orange county.
@@miniincalifornia Bummer. VooDoo child is very similar and also a good pollen source.
Am in Kenya just starting dragon fruits farming I wish grow my farm so far I have white and pink flesh ones 10 posts 👌🙏thanks for the video
Excellent! Thanks for watching!
Wondering how to “pound” the green u-shaped things into the ground, when making the new trellis design?
They have a tool designed to do it. I use a sledge hammer, but this is the tool that works much better. www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/countyline-t-post-pounder
Why are you growing them in containers and not directly in the ground? Just curious. Your DF farm is amazing and beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks. We grow them in pots our here because the gophers are so bad!
Thanks for answering. 🙏🏽
Are you selling any cuttings?
Can I know which kind of manner are to be use to grow it healthy? Please.
Some use cow or chicken manure that has been composted. I like to use earthworm castings.
Hi what is the best plant if some one tria to start gis growing dragon fruit thanks..
American Beauty, Sugar Dragon, and Robles Red are good plants that are self fertile.
It's very interesting. I would love to visit the farm. Can I have the address please. Hope, to hear from Leonardo Aguila soon. Thank you.
Check out Oceanside Dragonfruit on Instagram. They are active there.
I'm confused by Leo's description of his watering. He says each pot gets 0.45 gallons of water (rounds up to a half gallon) in 5 minutes. He then says he gives them two five minute watering cycles per week when it is hot out, and one ten minute watering cycle per week when it is not hot out.
That is the same amount of water per week regardless of season. I get that the soil mix drains fast and will dry out faster in the heat... but I'm still not understanding how getting the pot half as wet during a summer water cycle makes sense. What am I not comprehending? I'm in the desert where it hits 115F, so this might be vital info for my plants.
I talked with him off camera and I think he meant to say 10 minutes per month when the plants are dormant or when its cold. We both water them very little on the off season. A few farms in San Diego that I visit water their plants on drip and they receive 1-2 gallons per week on drip. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more information.
Hola
¿porque no las plantan en el suelo? Yo creo que seria mejor. Saludos desde Mexico.
Hi! Poor drainage, and mainly gophers.
👍👍
Thanks!
What fertilizer does he prefer? I couldn't hear clearly
Bud and Bloom was one. I think he was talking about this. www.groworganic.com/products/dr-earth-budblm-bster-394-50-lb?variant=21543500972145¤cy=USD&msclkid=7626b862d2781cbfdd99d8d05754da71
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT thanks man.. We watching from Phoenix 🏜️
@@konsent21 Thanks for watching.
Hello sir ❤️
Love from Bangladesh ♥️🇧🇩🇧🇩
One question?
What size is nursery pot
Hi! 15 to 20 gallon pots and I drill extra holes for the roots to go into the ground.
Ive read they only flower at night? Ive seen videos of people polinating with headlamps on.
Here they are flowering in day light..😮
I have re watched this video more than dumb person would have... That's when you know it's great
Lol
Do you all sell cuttings
Yes, they sell rooted plants and cuttings.
There are non-toxic natural insecticides, I use something called Saf-Soap on aphids that attack my Apple tree. Boric acid powder and sugar does not work for me.
Me too. I like Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Castille soap. It's been great for me.
Is this the farm you can see on the 15 going towards Temecula?
no. It's off the 76, but close to the 15.
There are a few to see along the 15. We need to visit some more farms, thanks for watching.
l want the seeds
Don't we all :)
👍♥️🇺🇸
