Dragon fruit cacti is a vining type of cacti, so you are definitely correct in supporting them! They also like having moist soil, so nice job figuring that out from just experimenting! They do take 5-7 years to produce fruit though, and the fruit comes from the end of the cacti.
They’re so cute! I wanna try this tomorrow since I just bought a dragon fruit, it’d be fun to gift these to people in the plant community who live near me 💚 thanks for the video!
they sprout better without covering those tiny Seeds. I sprout mine on a moist paper towel in a ziplock bag.. no soil til they sprout. Yours with Strainer did great!
I just started to try and grow them. So right now they are germinating. I'm excited to try and grow them. I got 1 catus & 1 succulent that I've frown from seed so this is my next project. Thank-You for all the information on growing them.
The roots coming off the cactus are for the ones that touch the ground. It will take root and have another food and water point. There is a process of growing called "Mangroving". where you cut off a node and bury the node and stake it down to root.
It was amazing to see the sprouts sprout like baby cactus by germinating dragon fruits. In particular, seeing that the seeds that were ground with blend are germinated, I think the vitality of plants is really great. 🌿
just bought a dragon fruit and i’m going to do the strainer method today. i also bought a dragon fruit cutting off etsy that arrives today. i’m so excited! thank you for these videos.
@@Acehecked i got lazy and stopped watering it and it died BUT i just restarted again. the ones before were so full and turning into tiny cacti. the new ones i just planted aren’t at the cactus stage yet
I definitely tried the sieve method,it worked. It's been a month and they are already showing cacti... excited for the next step and watch those babies grow. Thanks .
Thank you very much.. I live in South Africa Roodepoort. I bought a fruit yesterday and we ate it this morning. I extracted some seeds and will start working with them tomorrow. Fantastic seeing you growing them. Great video.
The video is once again great! I like that you always compare several methods for something like this. Maybe I also try me times at the dragon fruit for a time lapse :)
I have several large yellow dragon fruit cacti growing on trellis. I've gotten them to bloom, but have never gotten fruit. Today I bought a red fruit from the grocery store, and that's what brought me to your video. Hopefully I can get the red fruit going so that maybe two years from now I can use the pollen from both plants to pollinate the blooms. Thanks for making this video! I'm going to go the more gentle screen route to clean the seeds.
Nice, these turned out awesome. It's crazy how many cool-looking plants you can grow from common supermarket items. I want to try it with sweet potatoes cause I've seen people grow really long vines on their windowsill by suspending a sweet potato in water
I used to grow sweet potato vines with the suspension in water method as a kid. They were so cool and beautiful. Now a days sweet potatoes are treated with something that prevents the tuber from sprouting. I don't know if this coating can be scrubbed off or not. Please let me know if this works for you.
@@JLFamilySong I try to grow anything I can from store-bought fruits and veggies - get organic as much as is possible. One of the EASIEST things to grow is a papaya tree. Or I should say trees. I buy a ripe fruit, scoop out the seeds, (eat the flesh, of course) ... and then I direct sow the seeds into the ground in Spring. Make dang sure you spread out the seeds...HIGH sprout rate! We have 3 really good strong trees that fruited heavily, and even survived the rare Texas winter deep freeze! THAT amazed me. Wishing you success with your gardening. Blessings from Texas. 🤠
This means that the pulp actually prohibits germination. So it is essential to rinse the seeds before planting but also to be careful not to damage the seeds. Thank you for this test. This will help me when I plant my own dragon fruit seeds.
They are a vining cacti and will get taller than you and bigger than you if you allow them to do so. They will need support or you can put them by a tree or structure of some kind and they will take to it. The roots are air roots and the plant uses them to grab onto whatever it is they want to vine up on. It can take a year or several years to bear fruit.
I’m about to plant up all the seeds from one dragonfruit, which is way more than I could ever need but I just can’t help myself. 🌱 I’m so excited to grow these 👍
great vid. I watched it while cleaning some seeds. dragon fruit is an epiphyte and grows in rock crevices vigorously climbing hill faces. that is why it makes those adventitious roots. it is a cactus, but it is also from tropical and subtropical rainforest climates so it can drink a lot of water. I've grown them from cuttings before, literally the easiest plant in the world to root and grow. excited for the babies, but I do not believe the fruit is true to seed. looking forward to finding out and also practicing grafting.
we sprouted our seeds by simply putting little chhunks on the soil, covered with soil, watered and then covered with a lid.sprouted in just a few days it seemed like.we have a lot of them now.they sprouted wonderfully.
As a tropical, vining cactus what you experienced with the aerial roots and need for moisture is to be expected. Though they are cacti, these are *not* desert plants and do need a good amount of moisture. For fruit production they are typically planted 4 in a 10-20gallon pot. A central 4x4 post is topped with an open box trellis made of 2x4s. The desired growth habit with this setup is an unbranched single stem on each side of the 4x4 with a branching canopy draping over the 2x4 box at the top, full of flowers and fruits. Good luck with this!!
@@tylertowne8648 hey, yep I have seen those videos! Quite a few homes in my neighborhood have had the same or very similar setups for many years so while not having enough space for pitaya myself I can tell that the setup works very well!
just perlite peatmoss and a little bit of regular dirt. I have them like 10 inches away from grow lights for 15hours a day Grow lights make a HUGE difference when growing plants because you can hammer them with light all year long and consistent
I bought a pot of dragon fruit seedlings from my local big box hardware store. There were between 40 and 50 plants in this 10 cm pot! I divided them up into forestry tubes, growing in river sand for a while, to make them hardier, and the trays of tubes are sitting in an inch of water, inside a clear plastic storage container, with the lid on. This storage container is sitting outside on a south-east facing wall (I am in Australia), so hopefully that will be the right balance of light and shade (I don't want them to cook...). It's heading into Winter here, so if it gets too cold, I can either bring them inside or put them in a warmer outside location. I am hoping that by Springtime, they will be big enough to transplant into "big girl pots", then maybe next year to their permanent locations. Thank you for this video, I think that next time, I'll just buy a dragon fruit, wash the seeds and plant them out, myself.
This was very cool to see, really contemplating trying the same thing. I wonder if you can let them twist around a wood stick when they grow...? Would be cool to have a helix/spiral shape.
You're going to need something to tie the df. They don't vine that easy. Epic Gardening on TH-cam shows you how to build a great support. Also has great tips on growing. He learned from a guy that grows fields of df.
I did the same, I also grew them from seeds and they have been growing in a pot for more than 40 days but their growth stopped; They sprouted but have not developed thorns. I think my mistake was leaving them in direct sun for 3 days, but hydrating them only with water in a pot with substrate, not so drained. Any recommendation? Did you take yours out into the sun? 😢😢😢
I started some dragon fruit seedlings a couple of months ago. I manually plucked out the seeds the a tip of a knife while I ate the fruit. I planted them into soil and they sprouted fast but the growth stunted and should be much bigger than what they are in my opinion. I'm going to try transplanting them and hope it helps!
I started growing dragon fruit from some cuttings I was gifted. Now I have to try from seed. Cool this worked out so well. How old is this vid, can we get an update!? Also, what are you fave lights for growing indoors? Looking for something to supplement the poor indoor lighting at my place.
I'd bet that the slice was behind was because of the fruit. Like with tomatoes and a few other seeds the flesh keeps them from sprouting inside the fruit thats why the seeds that were strained from the flesh did so much better but once the slice rotted the seeds took off. I just picked up a yellow dragon fruit from trader joe and im totally going grow them as I bought a bigger plant that a friend grows from seed like yours. The white fleshed red outside one. She planted them last year and during the summer mine got huge! They do grow fast for a cactus. But I had not read up on it yet and one whole side of mine is drooping downwards. Ive also made 2 cuttings from it for family and its rooting and growing really good too. Can't wait to see more.
@@TechplantChannel please don't kill them, just make other people equally happy selling/giving them. ^^ The aerial roots are for the plant to stabilize it's vertical growth, the less stable they get, the more of them you will observe.
I acquired a pot that has so many in it! They’re on the small side now. I would like to know when and how to separate them. I saw a video about someone else’s but it was already huge…. Don’t know what to do with mine
Nice video. Learnt my lesson buying dragonfruit from online sellers - seems some use the blender method - received too many broken seeds. How many hours a day do you give the lighting?.These look fantastic. !!!
All I did is plant half of a rooting dragonfruit that I had. Few months didn’t spout. I mixed the soil up then they spouted. They are not that big tho but I’m happy. Maybe I need to transplant
If I start growing seeds this week, and want to move house in 2 years, can I move a mature plant, or would I have to disguard it, and start again at the new house?
When I’ve been growing I usually just plant the small one directly into a bucket to spare replanting all the time, because they will grow fast and get really big
70f and like 8 inches away from grow lights. they need a pole to climb, this is a climbing cactus mine are still small becasue i have been to busy to give them a pole
Heya, the PULP really helps the seeds stay moist and should go in the ground with them IMO, same with most other fruits, tomatoes are another example.

Do they need a very high humidity to start growing? Temperature?
They are a tropical cactus so they do prefer that
So how close should they be planted together, and when it's time when should I trans-plant it?
Great video! What did you use to get those macro shots?
I use macro lenses with extension tubes
