  • It's been 1 month or so since our last video on Easter. But things are moving quickly! Our dragon fruits have exploded in growth and before we knew it it was time to construct trellises and cut them!

    I NEVER would have thought of just writing the labels directly on the cuttings. So simple and clever!

    That is very helpful when you display the names of the plants and show which way they are suppose to be planted.
    All of your plants look healthy and green.
    You really gave a green thumb.
    Thank you for sharing.👍

    I’m in NWFL and I bought a Dragonfruit a couple years ago out of all places Walmart, lol. I knew nothing about them but I had blooms this year. The first one I didn’t know how to hand pollinate it so it just drop off. The lasted two bloomed over the weekend and have been hand pollinated. I’ve taken cuttings from it and hope to have more next year

    Do you have to dry the cuttings for a week or so first before planting in soil?

    • @Eagle1538
      @Eagle1538  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes. Let the cuttings rest in a shoe box or shaded place for a week or so.

    Nice design. I'm trying to build a trellis out of bamboo and it seems harder than I thought!

  • @ScaryFear
    @ScaryFear 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Neat poles. How long should these poles bee and how deep should I bury them. I love that they are not too tall. That would be great for me since I am short. Also what are the dimensions of the square top and what angle did you cut the support beams? I have some dragon fruits that were cuttings and have been neglected. They've gotten big and I need to get them out of the baby pots and into the ground.

    • @Eagle1538

    How tall is your trellis? My drsgon fruit is right above the trellis now but the stem is skinny (not thin). Should I let it grow more in hope that the stem get thicker?

  • @ibrahimshamim7407
    @ibrahimshamim7407 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you for this series of videos my main source of confusion comes at how to create the top of the dragon fruit post. I like your idea of using wood instead of the more commonly used rebar but my main question is how do I attach either to the top of my wooden post?

    Just curious, but I see you handling these plants without gloves. I have two plants that are apparently the same variety, but have no idea which one as all the tag said was "dragon fruit"... Thanks Lowes! Anyway, mine have stickers that will even go through leather gloves. Do any of your plants have these nasty stickers? Yours are looking great!

    • @Eagle1538
      @Eagle1538  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      yes! Our plants do have thorns. its gonna be a suprise what variety you'll get. you wont be able to tell until it fruits. Most likely a white fleshed variety. But ya never know! have fun. thanks for watching!

      @Eagle1538  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +piemaster4 the poles are 4x4 pressure treated wood. Wrapped in burlap. The top wood are studs I had from a construction demo. I cut them in half long ways. Then cut 18 inch sections of them and cut the ends on a 45° angle. Screwed it all together! I hope this helps. Refer to videos for a visual. Thanks

    Mine doesn't product any fruit. How many fruits do you get per plant?
    What soil do you use to grow cuttings, and how much do you water them?
    What organic fertilizer should I use?

    • @Eagle1538
      @Eagle1538  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello. Unfortunately our plants are only yearlings and haven't produced fruit yet.
      Soil we've used black cow mixed with the local soil.
      Also fertilized with general fertilizer 10-10-10 a few times as cuttings . and 6-6-6 every 2 months or so currently.
      I hope this answers your questions. watch our other videos if you have more questions and I hope you get fruit!!
