Is this applicable for the ones that are bearing fruits already?
What zone are you growing in?
Can Dragon Fruit that is grown indoors produce fruit?
So I got a bunch of tiny mini baby dragon fruit in a small pot from Kroger’s? Should I separate each individual cactus?
Do you sell dragonfruit trellis?
Good job bro 😎
Mine have 3 years, they’re in a super big pot, they just don’t grow. I water them well, but let them dry nicely. the only growth I see is if I spray them daily or every other day. They’re only about an inch long, and very very thin. Their bottom is very thin, should I bury them a bit more? They can’t support themselves and I had to tie them to a chopstick. Maybe my pot is too big?
me, with my moon cactus 👁👄👁
Does dragon fruit plant have spikes?
11:45 “it has no chemicals in it”
So, it’s an empty bottle with the vacuum of deep space inside?

Hi so can you show me how I can keep they on winter ❄️?thanks
Where can I purchase that support set up?
HELP . I have baby DF I grew from seed. 2"-3" tall. Looks like bugs are eating chunks out. But its not bugs.
Thanks for the info, you have been been very helpful. I had no idea what I was doing.
Am I able to grow it from seed?
Well I hate to break this wild and true news to you fellow but every bottle you touched contained chemicals. Are you equally confused by the word “toxins” also?
I just purchased my first dragon fruit tree. I can’t wait to get her settled in. 😊
Can dragon fruit survive strong wind???
Mine are taking forever uhg
Nice vlogs I will try to do my plants follow your method
I have over 50k cacti and succulents and youtube randomly recommended this. It is nice but There is one big problem. Yellow color in flowers means that it is missing energy. Give them better soil or use suplements.
I have 2 fruits starting to form at the same time on the tip of one branch. Do I let both develop or would it be better to only let 1?
Is there a particular reason you are deciding to use actual sticky tape rather than grow tape or flagging tape? In my opinion, they are a bit more flexible and don’t have any sticky glues which would be a bit more "plant friendly." From the clip with Richard, he seems to be using some green grow tape to hold the stalks/branches of his plants together.
ang problema po sa tanim kong dragon fruit ay fungus. please let me know how to get rid of the fungus. thanks a bunch.
Where do you buy your pots?
Which soil is good for growing dragon fruit
I love your dragon fruit videos! I am sprouting dragon fruit from seed and have a question. The seedlings (about 2 to 3 inches tall) are developing some side shoots, should I prune them right now or wait until the plant is a bit bigger? Thanks!
Love this video. I would like to share my dragon fruit and sugarcane recipe

wow nice dragon fruit
Hi. I don’t know how to build a trellis for dragon fruits..can I grow the plants in the big pot like u and just use a big wood in the middle and tied the dragon fruits plants to the stick. Does it still give me fruits after 2 or 3 years. Thanks
Can I grow the dragon fruit cactus in Nevada, where during the summer it gets 120 degrees?
a dragonfruit plant is like the coolest thing ever
Why is the stem and trunk on my dragon fruit so very thin?
I live in north Texas and want to plant a dragonfruit, but we get winters on occasion down to 10-20F. Can I still plant one for the long term, and how can I protect it in winter, if necessary?
9:22 Me watching Richard’s arm continually hitting the cactus: ow, ow….ow, ow, ow..ow
