Well done man. I'm in miami Florida and have been growing pitaya for about 4 years now and have learned a lot from you. I'm running through all your videos 👍🏼
I couldn't find any cuttings in my area of Washington so I just picked up a yellow dragon fruit at the market and started from seeds. Some are now about an inch high. So looking forward to the next few years of growth. Thanks so much for your videos they are awesome.
Thank you so much to show how to transfer , this video help me a lot and I looking for that many year . Now I have to star over . Thanks again and have a wonderful day
Dam i have watched your first an second video an all the flaws I called out that I would do just you did exactly for the trellis🤘🏽🔥💪🏽 dope! Thank you for your care guide on these awesome trees
Very informative video! For those asking where to buy Fox Farm soil. As of May 1, 2021, it is available at Amazon, Walmart, Target -- currently not in stock at Home Depot, Lowe's.
You have great information I shared your ideas with a number of friends that are growing dragonfruits also Thank you for keeping it simple and easy to understand
Awesome patio dragon fruit farm that you have there. Am sure that it is a lot of work to keep everything watered and healthy. Thanks for these videos! My neighbor's dragon fruit tree is drooping all over my fence, so I'll support it better on my side, and make a bunch of cuttings to replant elsewhere. It's flowers (whiteish yellow) are >6" diameter and I'll hand pollinate them when the time comes.
Wow, thank you so much for this video! I just received a bunch of dragon fruit cuttings from Amazon, some American Beauty, some Yellow Dragon. I live in SW FL, and I know dragon fruit thrive down here, have one growing along my back fence but is spread all over the place on it! Your video shows me I can put them in pots, contain them more than just planting on posts stuck in the ground, I think I will buy a bunch of 4 gallon pots from Lowes and try this, thanks!
I use cg (pressure treated) 4 x 4’s. An 8ft is about 10 bucks. They will last 20 years in water contact. Although heavier, they seem a best choice to me. I also was recommended to wrap in burlap, and I think that makes sense also, as lock-in to it is fast. Good video, thanks for the info, always learning
If one lives in a windy area, you can run a piece of rebar through the pot, into the ground to keep them from blowing over. Thats what I have to do with my large tropical plants.
Really inspiring. Just started my very first plant and it's growing really well so far. Looking forward to seeing it like yours. Thank you for your vids. It's quite informative.
I enjoyed watching your video! I'm just so scared to get pricked... because I've been pricked so many times with those suckers!😊 But I'll try to follow your good advice.👍
Great videos and super informative. Wanted to ask how to transplant dragon fruits that are growing in a single pot into a one large pot with a trellis. Thanks
Awesome videos man! Because of your videos, I was inspired of starting my own. Do you have any problems of one variety not thriving in the pot? I understand that some variety grows faster than others. And some just overcomes others root system.
Thank you, David for watching and supporting my videos! It makes me so happy to hear that you are having success with your Dragon Fruit plants and that my information plays a roll in your garden. It fills my heart with joy to see others doing well with their Dragons! Keep me updated on your progress! I will keep teaching and educating.
Been a subscriber and I was about to ask if you planted other varieties of dragon fruit together and your doing it now lol... Keep us posted on how this is goes. Thanks for the videos man keep it up.
Gracias bro. I just got one a few months ago. Always wanted to know how to build those trellises. Bless you for teaching that. 🙏🏼 It’s about more or less 2ft big. I have it outside in a 10inch pot. I started to get some yellow spotting at the top of the stem. I think it may be due to freeze burn. Will it be ok? Thank you for your time.
Hi Richard, great demonstration. I really like your technique, you're right a little care and planning can avoid damage and disappointment. One question though, you don't think that four plants in one pot is going to be too much root competition??? I know that it's a big pot, but those plants already had a vigorous root system even though they were only small. Thanks for another great video, take care 😁😁😁🦘🦘🦘
Hi 👋🏼. You now have another sister brother! Lol. If that’s cool 😎 I have learned so so much from you. Thank you 🙏🏼. And now I’m ready to re-Pot my large Dragon’s (safely & correctly) And my smaller ones. Oh. And with plans flying by too. Lol. And. Like you’re first one. I do not know what kink of fruits they’ll be giving me so, 👏🏼👏🏼. Let’s see. See you in your next video. P. S. You’re collection’s. Are amazing 😉. Lucky 🍀.
wow, watch your video I wish I have dragon fruit plants to grow but at the moment I could not buy any where . I like the idea of the stand this time, it will last longer.
i started DF 2 yrs ago and I have my first DF fruits watching your inspiration videos. Lessons learned is that I should use 20 gallons to yield a bigger fruits. I also use 15 gallons that they have smaller fruits. The Fox farm soil is great. Any suggestions where to buy 20 gallons plastic pot cheap and Fox Farm ocean forest soil in southern california?
Hello Richard , First of all I'd like to thank you for sharing all your knowledge about Dragon Fruit and it is really informative. I'm planning to put up a Dragon Farm in a one hectare lot , would you advise me to put all the the dragon fruit in a 20 Gallon pot with fax farm soil OR just use the existing soil of the lot to save on cost. One hectare lot can install around 1500 to 2000 Trellis max.
I just watched a video that stated NOT to put different varieties in one single pot as the difference in the root systems can cause slower growth in the varieties that have weaker roots. and good call on Fox farm. that's one of the best potting soils out there his rules of don'ts 1. Don't plant new cuttings w/ established plants 2. Don't mix varieties in the same pot 3. Don't overplant (crowd) in the same pot 4. Don't over prune (esp. when fruiting) except new sprouts 5. Allow for plenty of room between planting posts 7ft is not even enough.
Hi Merrilee! Thank you for always watching and commenting on my videos. It's always good to hear from you! I hope you and all your Dragon Fruit plants are doing well. Kind regards, Richard
@@sunnydayz4040 I later found his video "How to Build a Dragon Fruit Trellis V2" and had my husband built 4 of them for me following his way. Very helpful!
Thank you ! This gives me an idea how to plant it in pots. Where did you get the posts with cement at the bottom? How long would it bear fruits? You just place the pots between 2 houses. I hope nobody breaks the branches when they walk past it. Are you a horticulturist?
The post is being sold in Home Depot. It can bear fruit as soon as you plant if falling to fruiting season. It's just a matter that your plant has enough nutrient to support the fruit. My plant bears fruit 1 month after planting. It doesn't need to be a big tree to have fruits though
Thank you for tutorial... Do you feel that 2 pitayas instead of 4 could create more vitality? Also, I feel there is too much plastic used... and waste. I like the idea of terracotta planters and a natural hemp rope to tie the cactus to the wooden post. How do the cactuses root on that plastic sheath you have on there?
Great vids! I’m in, gonna try growing some. So What are 4 sweet, self pollinating varieties a noob could try? Wanna put them all on one trellis. Was thinking 2 reds, 1 yellow, and a white one.
Can you make series from seed to harvest? I grew a plant from seed it’s 1 year old now and I am wondering when should I do my next transplanting, right now it’s in a 10 gallon fabric pot, it’s very healthy looking. But I am wondering what next.
where do you buy your potting mix and how much for a bag like that cost? Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise in growing Dragon fruit, I would like to plant some Dragon fruit cuttings also , looking forward to your next videos ..
Thanks for the video. I have about 4 dragon fruit plants that are struggling. I think I need to repot , then once better established repot them in a trellis. you are in southern Cali correct?
Hey there... I have a question regarding securing them to the trellis. How tight is too tight? I have 8 growing, i have them tied to stakes but very loose because im afraid if I tighten too much the will bow underneath the tie.

Isnt pressure treated wood full of toxic chemicals?
If one lives in a windy area, you can run a piece of rebar through the pot, into the ground to keep them from blowing over. Thats what I have to do with my large tropical plants.
Good thinking ..
14:11 my favorite part of transplanting and getting a new plant 🌱 into its new home 🤘🏽

Great video on planting Thank you! I plan to buy some cutting this weekend at our farmers marker here in Big Island Kona.
I enjoyed watching your video! I'm just so scared to get pricked... because I've been pricked so many times with those suckers!😊
But I'll try to follow your good advice.👍
Very interesting! How good you are! Tell us where we can buy varieties of that fruit tree! Thanks!
You have a great looking dragon fruit garden going on :) My next new project, thanks for the vid.
Appreciate how you try to reuse/recycle and try to save the earth. 👌
Great videos and super informative. Wanted to ask how to transplant dragon fruits that are growing in a single pot into a one large pot with a trellis. Thanks
In other videos they said not to plant different varieties together cause some are weaker but yours seem to be doing fine
Richard,
Where did you buy from your container or pot from? What is the brand name?
Love all your info!I have a tree for 3 years but no fruit.
Put in sunny area. Give chicken manure and wormcastings and some magnesium, potasium, etc..
Great video bro! Saw your story on Instagram yesterday and was waiting for this video haha 😅 blessings 🙏🏼
Thank you! I'm glad you were looking out for it and took the time to watch it! I appreciate the support, I hope this video was helpful for you.
If it is planted outside, will it live in the winter?
THANK YOU SO MUCH, i LEARN A LOT FROM YOU.GOD BLESS YOU DEAR
