Hi justin han, I am very happy that you found my channel and that it is serving you justice! Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. I will continue to deliver more educational videos about growing dragon fruits. :)
Hello from Australia! Thanks for all the videos Richard, very informative! I'm going to repot my DF soon! Will definitely apply some of your growing tips. Keep up with the good work!
Hi Richard, Thanks for consistently posting such great content! Do you have any advice on repotting a larger plant that is about a year old and closer to maturity?
Hi Richard I have some Dragon Fruit growing in old half wooden wine barrels , my question is which season do you Tip the plants to encourage flowering ? Thank you.
This channel is great for people like my family who have never grown dragon fruit before! We got a hold of 4 cuttings now. One question: Wouldn’t you release some of the roots so they stick outwards from the root ball? I’ve heard when roots do that they could get stuck in that pattern
Thank you for your videos! Very useful! I have a question about repotting. My first dragon fruit cutting is about the size of yours in this video...i have it also in a pot that's about the same size. Can i repot it directly into a 20 gallon pot? Thank you!
Thank you for your videos I am learning a lot. I have one DF plant for years but never bloomed. I would like to know if I can use a 1/2 barrel pot to transfer to a bigger pot. Thanks again.
I bought a dragonfruit plant from the store, and it looks to be a bunch of young baby plants compacted very tightly into into one small pot. Do you think it’s possible or beneficial to break them apart and replant them all separately? Or should I leave them together, re-pot them together, and maybe use cuttings down the road? I have no experience growing dragon fruit, so any tips would be beneficial. They’re quite cramped and need to be repotted soon. Thanks in advance.
Do you have to wait until there's new growth? Or can you just pot it up when there are some roots? Also if my cutting has a side shoot from the bottom should I separate them? Should I put it on a heat mat to root?
Hey Bro I rooted a DF cutting using a vase and water once I saw a couple inches in root from my cutting can I plant in soil and place in direct sunlight? Or should I still mature the roots in soil longer in a shaded area?
Once they grow a couple inches of roots. You can pot them in soil and take them out to the sun. Those roots that are developed will grow very quickly once they are in soil.
Hello, I just starting to plant dragon fruit and your videos are awesome, thanks for all the helpful information! Where can I get the 22-25 gallon pots?
Hi MW Y, Thanks for watching my videos! You can buy them at any local hydroponic garden stores. If they don't cary it ask them to order it for you to purchase. Most of the time those pots need to be special ordered by them because its so big and normally people don't really buy them. Give that a try and good luck!
A lady gave me a vetmanese red. (At least she things that is the name). I had bought large pot to put it in. When she gave it, there wasn't a lot of soil in the pot. Can see the roots and there is a piece growing from the side. I'm hoping to repot in the big pot and cut the other off to plant that in after it heals over. I'm hoping I'll be doing correct. I want to do the trellis and I wasn't sure how tall you make the trellis.
Hi !! Just did my trellis just how you showed on the video, now my question is I have 3 dragon fruit branches in one small pot the roots are attached together can I separate them when transferring to the 20 gal pot . Would it be any damages ?
Hey man, love your videos so far. Just started binge watching them as I recently got a cutting of a red flesh variety. I was going to ask how you deal with the spines, particularly when harvesting fruit? Another question, have you ever had experience growing these indoors? I've got the room, but curious if you've got some pointers. I live in the north so climate is not friendly (current temp right now is 11F and last night it had dipped down to -14F. Thanks and once again, great job! I'm learning a ton
Hi Nathan, I would use a torque scissor to cut the big pot and use a razor blade to slice it open. Then I would carry the whole trellis and have someone help me push the pot over and dump the plant in. I'll make a video about this when I get the chance to transplant one to a bigger pot. Over time you soil will get compact down so there will be room to add 1-2 inches very year. :)
Hello Richard, from the land Down Under(Aust). I have a cutting(DF) from a friend, Vietnam White type and I put in a pot for past two months in the shade and water every few day but it hasn't grow a shoot out yet becoz over here it's the Cold season rite now..we don't have Fox Farm or FloraNova(USA only)in Aust. So I have to wait until the Cold season to finished and I bring it out to the Sun. I don't know if the Root has roted away.? Can you help me.pls.Thank You.
Hi Sonnie P. those pots in the back are 20 gallon pots. I buy them from my local hydroponic garden store. They didn't carry them at first but I asked about it and they ordered some for me to buy and now have it in stock. Try asking your local hydro store and if they don't have it, request that they order it in for you.

Hi Justin, in my description is a link to my Facebook dragon fruit group. Please join and post your pictures in there so I can help you figure out what’s going on.
I have been watching your older videos and have a question about why you grow Dragon fruit from seed. From what I have read Dragon Fruit does not grow true from seed, that to say you won"t get the same fruit from a seedling as the original variety. So why grow Dragon Fruit from seed? is it that you use seedlings as root stock to graft know varieties, or are you experimenting to try and create a new variety. Other than those two reasons, I don't see any other reason to grow Dragon fruit from seeds. I'm just curious as to the reason you grow Dragon Fruit from seed.
Hi chava Chiva, I'm grafting DF seeds because the Ecuador Palora is a self-fertile variety. Meaning when the seeds are pollinated its from the same parents. Which will make them grow true to the parents of the fruit. In the Philippines they grow this variety from seed and it has been produce true to the variety. It has already been proven over in their country. In US no one has done it yet so that is why you see that I'm grafting these seeds to show everyone that it is possible and that it is true. You will only get seeds that are not true to parent if they are cross-pollinated.

Thank you so... much for sharing!
Great video. I am going to plant it into the ground. Do I still use the fox farm soil & fertilizer? If yes, how much of it I needed?
Love all your videos!!! Do you ever use a mycorrhiza root inoculant?
Do you have to wait until there's new growth? Or can you just pot it up when there are some roots? Also if my cutting has a side shoot from the bottom should I separate them? Should I put it on a heat mat to root?

@@GraftingDragonFruit How can I buy your cuttings? Do you have the Columbia yellow one? I live in Rowland Heights.

How do you repot the big pot behind you? Do you just add more soil every year? And what when the pot fill up with roots on the big pot?

galing ! nagkaroon tuloy ako ng idea. sana meron dn kayo sa instagram
meron po sila @graftingdragonfruit
What is the smallest pot size you could grow dragon fruit in to get some fruit? And does it need full sun?
Where do you get your black plant containers?
About how long does it take a cutting to grow to the point where it should be repotted, assuming it is in a small pot initially?
Hello I am Elena. I want to know where you buy you fox farm soils? Cause I went to Home Depot and Walmart both stores do not carry it. Thank you
How big are those pots at the back? 10 gallons? 20 gallons? Where did you buy it?
Hi Sonnie P. those pots in the back are 20 gallon pots. I buy them from my local hydroponic garden store. They didn't carry them at first but I asked about it and they ordered some for me to buy and now have it in stock. Try asking your local hydro store and if they don't have it, request that they order it in for you.
My dragon fruit(California) plant turned yellow within a week, after repotting it into a bigger pit. Any suggestions/help ? Thanks
What type of soil are you using?
Hi Richard , I am living in apopka Florida and I want to know if you sell cuttings . I would love to acquire some Thanks.
Will be selling once my website launches. Inventory will be limited for now until I can grow even more

Hello, what is the ideal size of the pot for growing Dragon Fruit
Hi Sergio! 20-25 gallon pots are ideal for growing Dragon fruits. They can live in there for decades until your trellis gives up. 😁
Thank you.
I bought 6 moon flowers I degrafted all I've lost three to root rot and sun burn, I have three left how do I replant them? There really short.
Oops almost forgot I'm in Goodyear AZ and it's hot.
Question, my dragon fruit showed yellow and even some brown area at top flat branches. Is it sun burn? Anyone can help to answer? Thanks.

Didn't you put any slow release fertilizer ?
Hi Warren, my organic soil has fertilizer that is already in there. It feeds up to 2 months before it needs to be fertilized again.
