💚💚💚Amazing content that took me down a rabbit hole 😅 Reminds me of holiday cactus 🤔 What’s that plants botanical name and stuff 🤓? Something caught my attention in the search….🤯 Schlumbergera Virus X in Dragon Fruit in Ecuador And also possibly India. Research articles……. Squirrel 🐿️ slaps the rabbit 🐇 “Not today!” 🤔
Feb 1 - March 5 That's sun low in the sky time = warm light spectrum. Also happens in autumn. Why they fruit at those times. Also how you get long day and short day crops. I get that's kinda advanced for the average hobby gardener though.
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.
Lol forreal! It looked like a cartoon face from a distance when the logo is small. It wasn’t until i went on the home page of the channel I realized the “eyes” are the “e” and “g” 😅.
My dragonfruit journey began during the pandemic. We bought a colombiana fruit from a local farmer and was absolutely blown away by how sweet it was. I saved some seeds and germinated some in some water. Ended up with about 100 seedlings😂🤦🏽♂️ I grew stuff but not to the level that I am now. From veggies, to dragonfruit, to fruit trees, to kratky hydroponics, etc. Any old food safe container has a plant in it😂 My wife thinks I’m nuts. But she doesn’t complain when she take a scoop of a juicy sweet dragonfruit right from the yard. Or veggies. The taste difference is just ridiculous. Not even close. Nowadays, I am just addicted to gardening. My friends and family miss me😂
@@edeltrudespoluakan8492 i use 30% cinder(volcanic pumice) , 20% sand, 20% organic matter(compost mostly), 20% coco coir chunks, 10% peat moss. Something of that matter. I use alot of sand and cinder rock for drainage. Lots of rain here.
What an inspiring journey you’ve had with dragonfruit and gardening! It’s amazing how a simple purchase can spark such a passion. Growing your own fruits and veggies definitely makes a huge difference in taste. Do you have any tips for beginners who want to start their own gardening journey? And how does your wife feel about your gardening adventures now?
@@fromfieldtofork Aloha🤙🏼🙏🏼 Don’t really have any tips except to have patience. Gardening helps with patience. Plus, it keeps me busy enough to stay out of trouble I guess😬🤣 At first my family used to think I was crazy. I actually thought and still think that they are crazy for thinking I’m crazy😂. How can “growing food” be a crazy thing. Insane to me. But that’s the materialistic world we live in right?? Most of society are so caught up in grocery stores, fast food, etc. that growing food seems weird and not cool I guess. To me, it’s an absolute necessity to have an ability to grow or even raise your food and try to be sustainable. Now that we have been eating fresh veggies for years, they have become more welcoming of the environment around them because of how delicious home grown vegetables are. HUGE difference!!! Goodluck to you and may all your family and friends benefit from your successes. Much aloha 🙏🏼🤙🏼
AWESOME! As you know, almost every video labelled "complete growing guide" on youtube just shows you how to plant something (usually seeds). Planting stuff is the easy part. I want to know how to take care of it afterwards! Your videos are so good at showing that. You know.... the important part! Thanks!
Hey, one way to find out! 😂 But in all seriousness, there is a safe way to find if plants are edible. Start by breaking it open and putting the juice onto a soft spot of your skin, like the wrist or elbow. If there’s a reaction, instantly that’s a no plant. Next step is a small taste of the juice. Wait at least 24 hours between each step. Basically take small steps like this with the food, trying it in different ways until you feel confident. I’d bet you probably can especially cooked up like nopales. This is how I was taught to try foods in a survival situation.
My wife's friend passed on a puny little dragonfruit start for me several years ago. That thing did nothing until I transplanted it into a bigger pot with fresh soil and really took off. I moved it inside to protect it during the cooler months, watching it develop. Then one of the cats ate it. I tried finding a new plant, but nobody in the area sold one, not even the "exotic" plant guy. I have some dried seeds, so I'll try again that way.
I have heard that the stems of those grafted cacti (green stem with brightly colored top) are actually dragonfruit. They TH-camr I watched bought some at the dollar store, pulled the top graft off, and grew the stem into a blooming dragonfruit.
Tool Care: If you have tools with rust, the best and easies way to restore them is dip them in white vinegar for an hour or so depending on how much rust it has depends on how long to dipped them then use a wire brush to remove the rust Thank you guys for charing your knowledge
I'm really glad you threw everything into one video! I've got an unknown variety of dragonfruit that a neighbor had set out on the curb with a "Free" sign on it. I nursed it back to health and now it's gone crazy with side shoots (although it's starting to grow out thru the top of the trellis). Guess I know what I'll be pruning tomorrow! Thanks
Lease make a video to help us who live in cities. We have 4 large windows and outside space on them for plants. But we tried one year and pigeons ate it, some windows had full sun and tomato flowers dried before flowering and even had rats climbing the cables eating out tomatoes. We live in sunny Spain now but in the middle of Valencia and miss our garden. Or just do the flowers. Thanks.
Great video, thank you. Please can you provide more information on fertilizer quantity and type for Dragon Fruit cuttings that have rooted and have reached 2 feet in height?
I grew some dragonfruit from seeds from store bought fruit. It's going slow and a lot of the seedlings were lost along the way. Year 3 and my biggest is about a ft tall but I don't get enough sun throughout the day for faster growth.
My Mom in Clairemont has a huge dragon fruit crawling up a dead maple tree...is has fruit that chandeliers off the tree...she does literally nothing and the thing grows like a weed and drops fruit like crazy
Protect that maple tree at all costs, the dragon fruit plant probably can only sustain that much production because of the tree being the ultimate trellis lmao
My wife was mentioning that she wanted to try growing dragon fruit this morning - Perfect timing!! Also, we converted our front yard into a big edible garden after finding your channel over the pandemic. Thanks so much for all the info and inspiration!!
Cmon guys. With all due respect, these new logos are simply not it. Unless this is some kinda April fools gag, let’s get the original logos back to their original thrones. 🙏
I’ve been following Richard’s channel for years. He has a wealth of dragon fruit knowledge. Also his FB has a ton of other expert growers who are happy to help newbies.
The store bought ones are normally pretty bland , maybe it's because they harvest early to be exporting out.. I grew mine 3 years ago, Vietnam white dragon fruit, OMG ... they were so sweet ,that's because I waited longer to be harvested. I've got about 15 flowers are coming out right now. Let's hope for a good season🙏
I love growing dragon fruits! I’m in Central Texas, and I’m slowly taking my plants out of their winter greenhouse. I’m making new trellises, too! The dragon fruit bug is real! I have epiphyllums, Harrisias, and other night-blooming cereuses! 😁🌵
You guys did me in! Here in NC and I decided 'why not try dragonfruit'? So I took one from the grocery store, washed off the pulp the best I could and put it in a couple of small, flat trays. I now have several hundred 'babies'. The sad part, I'm excited about it! Some of them are starting to push out a stem between the 2 baby leaves.
I grew two last year... two of my flowers died.. it had absolutely no taste.. none.. it was pretty and pink and juicy but had NO TASTE, No Smell either... why???? 😢
I'm watching your video, & your Drangonfruit don't seem to have any spike on them. My two plants (no idea what kind) bought them on Craigslist. Mine have massive cactus-like spikes, making them difficult to work with. Excellent video so far, shared with my sister, neither of us have successfully produced fruit yet.
I also want to know about zones. What zone are you in, California right? I’m in central Texas so 8b. Do I need to plan on moving my plant indoors in November, bring back out in March? This video assumes we are all in your same zone.
I've got a dark star variety dragonfruit growing - I started it from cuttings at the beginning of October 2023 and it produced its first fruit 6 months later. I notice you said that the flower will open up in 30 to 35 days. Well, from my own experience with my dragonfruit plant, it took 2 weeks for the buds to fully open up. To be specific, I first noticed the bud on March 27th. It fully opened and was pollinated on April 10th. I harvested it on May 13th. So, 2 weeks to bloom, and 5 weeks or so until harvest. I don't know if the variety has anything to do with that.
Dragon fruit??? This fruit is native from America, Mexico and South America and its name is Pitaya or Pitahaya. Also Tuna. “Vietnam white” come on these guys are trying to steal the fruit’s real identity
How much watering you do: for cuttings vs rooted plants (frequency and amount and timing - winter vs summer) and same for fertilizing schedule and type of fertilizer? Thanks for your instructions.
One thing that has worked for me when rooting dragonfruit cutting is I’ll take a cutting and then just put it off to the side where it can be cool, dry and away from the sun. Eventually it’ll sprout some root initials and I’ll plant it
what is decent make and model of large black plastic pot for dragon fruit indoors? Having a hard time finding anything >15gal where I live. I am reluctant to buy just anything off Amazon due to low quality.
My daughter took the seeds from a Vietnam White and germinated 2 dozen seeds.I potted them.Any hints? I'll be putting them along a wooded posted bob wire fence to be able to try them up.
I got a cutting ftm someone. Had it growing for years !!! I get rewarded with a beautiful white flower always wondered if I wud get fruit frm it. Replanted it 2weeks ago...can u or anyone advise.thnx
I live in zone 8b Texas. I have a lab created dragon fruit from Epcot labs. I purchased the lab specimen in 2016. I stored it in my greenhouse two years in a row and heater failed. This year I just threw it in my garage for and it did well. It is massive!! I need take at least 30 cuttings off. Please help!!
I am from Việt Nam. The farmers In My country they have been growning very much and I know If you want that flower you should make some light in night, this tree will grown up is very faster. Ok If you love it you come to my country and go to Bình Thuận province you will see the big tree, only one tree is bigger more than add your 20 trees
So may be a silly question but haven't seen it answered yet - can/should you remove the thorns? Have just started with our 1st that we got from Lowes here in SW Florida and it's ready to be moved into 2 seperate and bigger pots but the thorns are intimidating.
I have 18 dragon fruit in my indoor grow because of you!!! Mine are not looking quite like yours and since it's also where I start spring seeds it's tight quarters in there at the moment but once it's all done I'm going to build a rack to help trellis them. I'm letting them grow at the edge of a grow area so they'll only get light from one side but it is strong.. due to the light I can't do the method your doing so I'm picturing like a really long ladder and planting them in a row and sending them up and to flop forward...
Cool info! But, You know, they have plant labels you can put in the dirt to identify the plant rather than write on it.. and hopefully that plant didn’t get damaged from you cleaning your tools in its pot.. what is going on here ..??
I bought pieces of dragon fruit on Coronado Island 3 years ago. I live is southeastern Arizona by the Mexican border. So far lots of growth no fruit. Is it too hot and dry here to produce fruit?
i accidentally bought a bought a dragogn fruit plant thinking it was a regular cactus from the clearence section of walmart in 2021 as a small gift for my husband. a friend told me it was in fact dragon fruit so i started caring for it as such but kinda gave up on the idea of getting actual fruit from it. until this year!! it start growing like crazy out of no where and i feel like its about to start producing flowers.
how do I get some cuttings from you? I currently have Frieda's snow dragon's seedlings that I would love to graft into one of your cuttings to speed up the fruit growth.
Ive watched the entire video serie and have some knowledge about it. My question is: could I grow them even in the Czech republic? I know it’s not the best climate but my idea is that I’d move the plant out the house when it’s hot outside and keep it inside during autumn and winter.
I think my dragon fruit hates me lol. Its a bit yellow and over a year old. No where close to that much growth. I should probably fertilize it heavily with some blood meal...
I don’t remember hearing anything about how much or how often to water them. I’m in SoCal and overwatered one recently and killed it. How often do I water one that I have in a pot?
I'm growing dragon fruit to they are still babies tho they are about 2 in tall and yeah they do get addicting to grow because there progress goes really well and yeah I'm scared of them getting sick or dying that's why I looked up tips on growing dragon fruit
Hey, I was wondering if you have any experience growing dragonfruit cuttings late in the season? I might want to try growing it indoors through the winter
I am from India I am not getting a yellow dragon fruit plant here. Can you tell me how to increase the size of dragon fruit I have white dragon but it's too small
So now I want to grow dragon fruit! I have an affinity for indoor tropical and cacti. This just seems like the right next step! I live in Ontario canada 6b. Are there any special considerations for indoor over wintering and shorter outdoor season that you and Richard can suggest?
My trellis is tipping just like yours. I noticed you didn't address that. It's a design flaw that needs to be fixed. Mine are really bad. Not sure what to do to fix it.
I have a dragonfruit plant that seems to be growing well. But I’ve yet to see any flowers or fruit. Is there a way that I can send a picture for you to see and maybe tell me what I’m doing wrong?
Mine seems stumped. I'm in SC and it grew well inside until it got too big and I tried introducing it outside and I think it got burned and now there are aerial roots but nothing else.

The new icon is so bad... the old had so much more of a soul behind it
I think at least keeping the beet red and having the bottom half brown for soil would be perfect in terms of logo simplicity and character
Agreed
I think Eric is behind this..
Man i hate to agree but i do. I do agree
Lol forreal! It looked like a cartoon face from a distance when the logo is small. It wasn’t until i went on the home page of the channel I realized the “eyes” are the “e” and “g” 😅.
I see wild berry skittles, that's a really good creation from Richard
your garden is very nice
That was fantastic.
Could You have cracked the clay pot then put I side the metal pot to retain water and keep soil cool ?

They said Fox Farms Ocean Forest. Not a regular succulent soil because it's a subtropical cacti and requires more water than regular cacti

i accidentally bought a bought a dragogn fruit plant thinking it was a regular cactus from the clearence section of walmart in 2021 as a small gift for my husband. a friend told me it was in fact dragon fruit so i started caring for it as such but kinda gave up on the idea of getting actual fruit from it. until this year!! it start growing like crazy out of no where and i feel like its about to start producing flowers.
how do I get some cuttings from you? I currently have Frieda's snow dragon's seedlings that I would love to graft into one of your cuttings to speed up the fruit growth.
Ive watched the entire video serie and have some knowledge about it. My question is: could I grow them even in the Czech republic? I know it’s not the best climate but my idea is that I’d move the plant out the house when it’s hot outside and keep it inside during autumn and winter.
I think my dragon fruit hates me lol. Its a bit yellow and over a year old. No where close to that much growth. I should probably fertilize it heavily with some blood meal...
I don’t remember hearing anything about how much or how often to water them. I’m in SoCal and overwatered one recently and killed it. How often do I water one that I have in a pot?
I'm growing dragon fruit to they are still babies tho they are about 2 in tall and yeah they do get addicting to grow because there progress goes really well and yeah I'm scared of them getting sick or dying that's why I looked up tips on growing dragon fruit
Does it matter how tall you trellis post is? Can you make it "dwarf"(3ft above soil) and have the same results?
The only God l know is THE HOLY GOD OF ISRAEL.ONLY HE IS GOD NOT man
Hey, I was wondering if you have any experience growing dragonfruit cuttings late in the season? I might want to try growing it indoors through the winter
I am from India I am not getting a yellow dragon fruit plant here. Can you tell me how to increase the size of dragon fruit I have white dragon but it's too small
So now I want to grow dragon fruit! I have an affinity for indoor tropical and cacti. This just seems like the right next step! I live in Ontario canada 6b. Are there any special considerations for indoor over wintering and shorter outdoor season that you and Richard can suggest?
My trellis is tipping just like yours. I noticed you didn't address that. It's a design flaw that needs to be fixed. Mine are really bad. Not sure what to do to fix it.
I have a dragonfruit plant that seems to be growing well. But I’ve yet to see any flowers or fruit. Is there a way that I can send a picture for you to see and maybe tell me what I’m doing wrong?
I’ve heard you can grow dragonfruit soilless, on a tree, like an orchid. How?
Hey bro! A friend of mine just gave me a dragon fruit plant in a pot. What I need to do next??????

Hi
i.ve a dragonfruit plant
my question is, what kind of fertelizer does it need
Mine seems stumped. I'm in SC and it grew well inside until it got too big and I tried introducing it outside and I think it got burned and now there are aerial roots but nothing else.
any advice for zone 4 winters in canada. i have fully grown dragons with 4 verieties. winter here is a lil rough😂
I just sourced some mature cuttings of Richards variety sour patch kids.
My dragon fruit branches has thorns. Do all dragon fruit have thorns?
What type of fertilizer is needed for dragon fruit? Can I use a cactus fertilizer?
Can you grow it in a pot and bring indoors in cold climates? We don't have a long growing season in Canada.
I'd rather eat broccoli
I mean, broccoli tastes great, so....
when to fertilize? how many times per year and do you do so when you have young buds ??
