    This was ABSOLUTELY worth the wait. I don’t care how long I have to wait, as long as its within 5 years I’m happy. Year long timelapses are the best

    I bought a dragon fruit cactus about 10cm big with various shoots. In 3 months its girth has tripped and the length of the shoots are 7x its original length. Crazy how quick these things grow.
    They’re observed in nature crawling up beside other trees up to 30feet high!!

    I have a question. If the dragon fruit plant keeps wanting to fall over without outside support how does it grow in the wild? Is it like a vine that needs a tree or rock face for support?

    • @sylviagarnetstone563
      @sylviagarnetstone563 Месяц назад +16

      That is correct. The fruit grows on the part of the cactus hanging down off something, but from the high part near the light. His grow lights are not strong enough to form fruit, at least not yet. In a bigger pot with even more grow lights, you might get small fruit in a few more years when the vine reaches maturity.
