@@wilburgames5200 we all love looking a muscular man fighting each other with invisible ghost that, not always but in some rare cases, have powers capable distorting space and time. Specially time.
Fun fact, grafting is reliant only on the two plants being grafted together. You may say "duh" but what I mean by this is imagine you have three fruits. Fruit A and B are compatible. So is B and C. However if you graft A and C together they will reject the graft. But if you use B inbetween them, you can have an A-B-C plant and all three parts will accept eachother. This way you can create mainly some incredible art pieces, or I guess get any fruit you want in a garden that can only fit one tree. Space limitations are actually a common reason for grafting two fruit producing plants together as two individual plants would have better yields than two grafts. Tomatoes and potatoes are a common type of graft like that. However even more common is a different type of grafting. Did you know that there are only few places in the world where the grapes you eat and drink can be grown? This is due to an invasive parasite from America that is very deadly to them. So why are there great vineyards all over Europe and even America? See the American grapes are really bad for food and wine because we didn't spend millennia selectively breeding them, but they are both resistant to this illness and compatible for grafting with their European cousins. And while the vine situation is an extreme, such connections are not exclusive to vines. If you have any fruit tree bought from a store there's a good chance it will have a small lump somewhere on the bottom of its trunk, that's a graft point. See even if the really tasty varieties of fruit are viable, they are bred for being tasty and having lots of fruits, they cannot compare with the varieties bred exclusively for being tough and sturdy, but they can cooperate with them. Of course you will still need to take gentle care of the fragile top plant that gives you fruits, but everything from the graft down is much better defended against the environment. However be careful, for you might need to defend against it! With some graft combinations the bottom and top plant may not be entirely compatible, and live more so in an uneasy alliance as they need eachother. But if the roots manage to sprout their own branches and leafs beneath the graft the bottom plant suddenly doesn't need the top, and it may cut it off from supplies. This is often mitigated by putting the graft as low as possible to dissuade the bottom plant from growing it's own leafs, and the issue is rare as many plants will tolerate eachother even if they both have leafs and roots. Especially within the same species connection rejection rate is basically 0 which allows people to do things such as weaving a fence of trees that has dozens of roots and crowns, but all the plants are connected together into one. It's a cool project honestly, and I might have some ideas of my own for ungodly floral amalgamations, shaped to my will. I think I got a little carried away typing this out. TLDR: There are incredible grafting options possible for plethora of reasons, and the Frankenstein dragon fruit is merely the tip of the iceberg.
See I was skeptical of this video at first, but the more you explain, the more it actually made sense. Also, not my dumb ass reading the "potatoes and tomatoes" part and initially thinking you meant the two WITH EACH OTHER 😅 listen I only just got up, OK? Cut me some slack. But yeah, plants are freaking weird and awesome
@@KrakatonMain I do mean the two with eachother, they're surprisingly closely related and people with small gardens will draft the top of a tomato plant on the roots of a potato plant to get both.
@@KrakatonMainThey did mean together 😂 You can make a plant that grows tomatoes above ground, and potatoes below ground. My grandma had a few of them in her garden.
One thing i've always wondered about, can you graft dragon fruit cactus to other cactus especies? cause there are other cactus especies that grow vertical trunks way easier, so they could be coupled to make a dragon fruit tree without support, like a sawaro as the "trunk" or others.
Visited an apple producer during one of my classes and the guy had 9 apple varieties on a single tree. Almost every branches had colorful tags to know which apple was growing where
I’m in the process of attempting this myself. Going on year 3, trees grown from seed are getting pretty big. As soon as they start fruiting, i plan on trying a few grafts.
Naw. But this is a common practice in plant husbandry. It's called grafting, and it's done especially with fruit trees. (Mostly apples and olives, I think?)
@@ZaeOSWSNo, it isn’t. If you cut off a human finger and sow someone else’s finger onto the hand, the immune system will reject the foreign finger by killing the foreign cells.

I love multi-fruit splicing. The Tree Of Forty Fruits is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. When I was a kid, I had an aunt that had a very small, almost bonsai-style citrus tree that had like 6 different citrus fruit branches grafted on to one root stock. I never saw it was all the different fruit growing at once, but it definitely produced all of them, sometimes a few at a time. Her neighbor also had a grapefruit Grove, and he never harvested all the fruit produced, so she had permission to pick them at will, as long as she let him know she'd be on the property first. I had more baked grapefruit at her house than I can remember. I still enjoy them, occasionally, in her memory.
@@aleksandramakari Oh, it's so good! Just cut the grapefruit in half latitudinally, as if you were cutting the Earth in half at the equator. You want to cut through the sections, so that they look like a pinwheel or umbrella. It's best to pre-separate the lumps of pulp within the membranes, so they're easily scooped out when it's time to eat. Try and keep them "whole," so that you have what looks like half a gummi fruit slice nested down in the pockets. Once you've separated the portions, sprinkle sugar over the top, making sure to coat the entire surface. I like to sprinkle a bare dusting of cinnamon, too, but try it on just part of the half first, in case you don't like it. Then, place a maraschino cherry in the middle. I like to do a few teaspoons of the cherry syrup from the jar, too, for flavor. Then, bake at 300°-325° (depending on your oven, you may have to experiment to get the perfect temp) for 10-15 minutes. Again, depending on your oven, time will vary. You definitely DON'T want to burn the rind, as the smoke can be irritating, so watch it closely till you can dial in the timing. Let cool a bit, but est while still warm. Try not to consume any of the oils from the rind, as they can be irritating, too. Some people find the oils extremely bitter, so just be careful.
I love this grafting process I want to create a whole garden with Frankenstein fruit trees. Also I didn’t know dragon fruit plant was a cactus looking thing
that's because it is, Dragon fruit is actually from Mexico, its original name is pitahaya but they after it made its way to Asia the name changed to dragon fruit because to them it resembled the scales of a Chinese dragon. but for Mexico and all of Latin America is Pitahaya or Red Pitaya is a Cactus but its a non spikey prickly pear :)
This is actually a process used by a lot of gardeners. I believe it’s called splicing. They take the roots of a stronger more resistant plant and cut the fruiting body off of a plant that has better fruit, but is less resistant to root issues. Causing a spliced plant that has improved resistance to infection in the roots and can produce fuller, better and tastier fruit. Obviously the plants must be from the same variety of plant. Like dragon fruit cactus or heirloom tomato varieties. But this process is used to improve plants without crossbreeding them and gambling for a better variety of that plant.
I think the most prominent example is with tomatoes, they get the stem of some tomato plant that makes bad tomatoes but has good roots (it might not necessarily be a tomato plant as I can’t remember). They then stick some posh tomato plant on top of the roots to get bigger tomatoes
This is why plants are so cool!!! I find biology in general fascinating but I love plants in particular because they are still very complex organisms but then they are a lot simpler than mammals in a lot of ways which lets us do crazy stuff like this! The fact that it‘s so easy to propagate plants fascinated me everyday too. I just love that you can cut pieces of their bodies off and instead of the mother plant simply healing, you can make a whole NEW plant out of that piece! 😍
I love grafting dragon fruits! It helps when you have a few cuttings from a rare or slow-growing variety. I also like grafting epiphyllums onto dragon fruits! Lol 🥰🌵
🤓☝️actually, if you lose a limb and it is recent enough, a surgeon can do a procedure to reattach that limb, but you will never control that limb like before though
Thats cool..knowledge is power.. it must be rewarding when you see it growing well.. Also creating new plants is a fun idea.. solving issues if any along the way.. Definitely very interesting..
This works with roses to. My roses were 5 years old and a storm snapped it in half. I used duct tape to bandage the rose stem. I supported the rose with blocks. Today its my larger rose bush i have and the rose are huge.
Okay, just wondering if homegrown dragon fruit taste better/different than store bought? The ones I've tried tasted..... like a bland kiwi? Not terribly unpleasant, but nothing I would go to the trouble of growing either. Am I missing something?
I know exactly what you mean. Much like a tomato, dragon fruit will continue to change color, even after they are cut from the plant. On the same token they are sweeter if they are able to ripen on the vine. But unfortunately most dragon fruit found at the regular grocery store are cut when they are still green and not fully ripened, but will still get its color as they are shipped and stocked at the store and are thus more like a ‘bland kiwi’
❤ This hybridizing is something I learned as a child, but was only allowed to experiment with it once. This video is a good reminder for me. I just bought my first home and started my garden. Challenge ACCEPTED 😂
Well I mean what he’s doing is something that makes sense in terms of biology. The little circle he was lining up is called the “vascular bundle” which includes the Xylem and Phloem which is what allows water and sugar to travel throughout the plant, and assuming the plants are all of the same species, it makes sense that the cells would have similar enough functions to work together. Honestly the thing he said that was the least “scientific” was when he called the stem the root. Plants have 2 major organ systems, the roots and the shoots, and from what I could see the roots just weren’t present in the sample he planted, so it’ll likely have to grow back
It’s insane that plants are just like “yea alright” and continue to grow together
Kinda like organ transplants
But they aren’t showing it working out?
@@I-serve-you-teaIt does work on leaf bearing trees like apple and maple trees so... why not cactus too

The garfted
I love multi-fruit splicing. The Tree Of Forty Fruits is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. When I was a kid, I had an aunt that had a very small, almost bonsai-style citrus tree that had like 6 different citrus fruit branches grafted on to one root stock. I never saw it was all the different fruit growing at once, but it definitely produced all of them, sometimes a few at a time. Her neighbor also had a grapefruit Grove, and he never harvested all the fruit produced, so she had permission to pick them at will, as long as she let him know she'd be on the property first. I had more baked grapefruit at her house than I can remember. I still enjoy them, occasionally, in her memory.
Baked?! That sounds like something I need to try.
@@aleksandramakari Oh, it's so good! Just cut the grapefruit in half latitudinally, as if you were cutting the Earth in half at the equator. You want to cut through the sections, so that they look like a pinwheel or umbrella. It's best to pre-separate the lumps of pulp within the membranes, so they're easily scooped out when it's time to eat. Try and keep them "whole," so that you have what looks like half a gummi fruit slice nested down in the pockets.
Once you've separated the portions, sprinkle sugar over the top, making sure to coat the entire surface. I like to sprinkle a bare dusting of cinnamon, too, but try it on just part of the half first, in case you don't like it. Then, place a maraschino cherry in the middle. I like to do a few teaspoons of the cherry syrup from the jar, too, for flavor. Then, bake at 300°-325° (depending on your oven, you may have to experiment to get the perfect temp) for 10-15 minutes. Again, depending on your oven, time will vary. You definitely DON'T want to burn the rind, as the smoke can be irritating, so watch it closely till you can dial in the timing. Let cool a bit, but est while still warm. Try not to consume any of the oils from the rind, as they can be irritating, too. Some people find the oils extremely bitter, so just be careful.
@@alden1132 I used to love eating grapefruit with a spoon. I have some weird spoon with ridges on the tip. I can use that. 😎
@@aleksandramakari I have one of those, too! Sort of tapered toward the tip, with serrations along the edge, like a knife. It's perfect for the job.
@@alden1132 I thought we had three, turns out it's 5. They're "Original Rogers" and silver plated. Woah they're legitimately called grapefruit spoons.
The white circle is called the cambium layer and the "buds" are actually called areolas 🐉❤️
Plant nipples?
My Areolas are small like buds too 😂😂
plipples
So the spiky bits on a cactus are just cactipples?
Lol😆@@cixavenue
All I can hear when seeing this is "I COMMAND THEE KNEEL!"
I love this grafting process I want to create a whole garden with Frankenstein fruit trees. Also I didn’t know dragon fruit plant was a cactus looking thing
Just an actual cactus. A succulent.
Did you think it looked like dragon?
Now do it with people.
!?!??!?!
🤣
*People who have had organ transplants:* 😶
Slow down godrick
It's possible on humans too...as long as your blood type and antigen type matches with the donor...that's y we have skin grafts,fat grafts etc
"Forefathers one and all bear witness"
Gardeners apparently
I want to See the Resolves with mature dragon fruit and Bear fruit 🍑🍓😅
The fact that people can just make new kinds of a fruit is amazing
I just learned that a dragon fruit plant is a cactus. It makes so much more sense now.
I didn't now dragon fruit was a succulent, reminds me of prickly pear.
that's because it is, Dragon fruit is actually from Mexico, its original name is pitahaya but they after it made its way to Asia the name changed to dragon fruit because to them it resembled the scales of a Chinese dragon.
but for Mexico and all of Latin America is Pitahaya or Red Pitaya is a Cactus but its a non spikey prickly pear :)
How long does it take for a dragonfruit plat this size to grow fruit?
Imagine a universe where dragonfruit did this to us
Bro is a mad scientist
This is actually a process used by a lot of gardeners.
I believe it’s called splicing.
They take the roots of a stronger more resistant plant and cut the fruiting body off of a plant that has better fruit, but is less resistant to root issues. Causing a spliced plant that has improved resistance to infection in the roots and can produce fuller, better and tastier fruit.
Obviously the plants must be from the same variety of plant. Like dragon fruit cactus or heirloom tomato varieties. But this process is used to improve plants without crossbreeding them and gambling for a better variety of that plant.
It's called grafting.@@bliss5297
@@bliss5297 it's called grafting
@@Ash13244 i might have forgotten the word in my reply
I think the most prominent example is with tomatoes, they get the stem of some tomato plant that makes bad tomatoes but has good roots (it might not necessarily be a tomato plant as I can’t remember). They then stick some posh tomato plant on top of the roots to get bigger tomatoes
Safiya Nygaard would love this! I could see her trying to create her own Frankenstein plant!
Why isnt there an update?? Did everything work??
Curious to see the final result ❤
People loved elden ring so much they made grafting in real life 😳
Forefathers one and all bear witness!
it's crazy i learned what grafting was from jjba
For anyone that’s anti-GMO in the comment section, just remember this is a form of GMO. It’s not as bad as cruchies make it seem.
This is why plants are so cool!!! I find biology in general fascinating but I love plants in particular because they are still very complex organisms but then they are a lot simpler than mammals in a lot of ways which lets us do crazy stuff like this! The fact that it‘s so easy to propagate plants fascinated me everyday too. I just love that you can cut pieces of their bodies off and instead of the mother plant simply healing, you can make a whole NEW plant out of that piece! 😍
That fruit gonna give you powers like One Peice 💀
Ah yes the fruit is made out of fentanyl
I need the follow-up videos for this one. I need dragon fruit videos in general, but especially this one!
i need these results omg
Bro is the idol for creating hybrid zombies 💀
Lemons are a manmade fruit
should have also shown final result....
Make one with all of the types of dragon fruits
I love grafting dragon fruits! It helps when you have a few cuttings from a rare or slow-growing variety. I also like grafting epiphyllums onto dragon fruits! Lol 🥰🌵
“Big…brother…”
-Dragonfruit.
This is exactly what I was thinking.
Bro really said I'm making a devil fruit today
When it is ready can you show us what it looks like?
That plant about to spawn an actual dragon
Really is interesting how you can just attach different parts of plants together like this.
🤓☝️actually, if you lose a limb and it is recent enough, a surgeon can do a procedure to reattach that limb, but you will never control that limb like before though
IKEA: who wtf is leaking our plan?😂💀
I guess you could say it's a "hydrafruit" lol
blud reworking the dragon fruit himself 🗣️🔥💯
Thats cool..knowledge is power.. it must be rewarding when you see it growing well.. Also creating new plants is a fun idea.. solving issues if any along the way.. Definitely very interesting..
This works with roses to. My roses were 5 years old and a storm snapped it in half. I used duct tape to bandage the rose stem. I supported the rose with blocks. Today its my larger rose bush i have and the rose are huge.
part 8 was so good they made fruit grafting a real thing
Plants r so chill, even Frankenstein ones
You missed the part where you show the results and not just the procedure
Okay, just wondering if homegrown dragon fruit taste better/different than store bought? The ones I've tried tasted..... like a bland kiwi? Not terribly unpleasant, but nothing I would go to the trouble of growing either. Am I missing something?
I know exactly what you mean. Much like a tomato, dragon fruit will continue to change color, even after they are cut from the plant. On the same token they are sweeter if they are able to ripen on the vine. But unfortunately most dragon fruit found at the regular grocery store are cut when they are still green and not fully ripened, but will still get its color as they are shipped and stocked at the store and are thus more like a ‘bland kiwi’
Try American Beauty
Try the yellow dragon fruit not the pink one. Chinese markets usually sell them way cheaper but those are hit and miss with flavor
Oh, homegrown is always better. A tomato sandwich with mayo and pepper on a hot day, made with tomatoes you grew in your own garden... It's heaven.
If I pick it from a plant on the sidewalk? It’ll either be mushy and bland, or so gritty it’s dry until you start to chew, then turns to sugar
❤ This hybridizing is something I learned as a child, but was only allowed to experiment with it once. This video is a good reminder for me. I just bought my first home and started my garden. Challenge ACCEPTED 😂
Istg people with green thumb is either a scientist or straight up magician
Well I mean what he’s doing is something that makes sense in terms of biology. The little circle he was lining up is called the “vascular bundle” which includes the Xylem and Phloem which is what allows water and sugar to travel throughout the plant, and assuming the plants are all of the same species, it makes sense that the cells would have similar enough functions to work together.
Honestly the thing he said that was the least “scientific” was when he called the stem the root. Plants have 2 major organ systems, the roots and the shoots, and from what I could see the roots just weren’t present in the sample he planted, so it’ll likely have to grow back
Sufficiently advanced science is indistinguishable from magic!

Oooo! Grafting! I've never seen it done with a cactus-like plant, only trees. This is so cool!
Can't wait to see the end result!
I want to see the final result 😭😭like how will it look like
