You did a very nice job of explaining the various ways to do dragon fruit cuttings! I’m a novice so I love the detail you give with each demol
Thank you ! I found an old dragon fruit in serious distress and I didn't think it was salvageable till I found your videos :) Great info
I have recently joined the group.Believing is seeing Richard has shown what to do and what not to do in rooting and propagation. This highly elegant and informative Richard's demonstration given has enabled me to correct my mistakes. I am anticipating more of such demonstrations. Excellent work, Richard !
Glad it helps!
Man these plants are so tough and grateful
They are so worth it!
Thank you - I’ve seen videos explaining HOW to make dragonfruit cuttings but not WHY they chose that way over another. This is awesome.
Awesome video! I currently have about 20 dragon fruit cutting that I’m rooting. I usually expose about 1 inch of the cambium, let it dry, and put it in water with a little bit of liquid rooting hormone (just for the first week). The container is also on a 24/7 heating pad. The dried cambium also serves as a crutch for the cutting, so the roots aren’t touching the bottom of the container and getting crushed.
I love making new dragon fruit cuttings! 😊
You got the whole process down!! Great job 😎
Hey Richard your videos are so thorough! I currently have 12 cuttings that are producing this year despite being only a year old! I'm so excited to see how the fruits turn out. I will have white, red, purple and hybrid fruit of unknown/generic variety. I think I will even cross pollinate to see what the result is! Unfortunately I tried to graft the palora dozens of times to no avail... That's my next project. Without your inspiration I wouldn't be where I'm at so thank you!!!
You’re so very welcome!
hey richard come down trinidad and tobago ang collect our wild varieties harjoe and tobago pink. It will be like the hawian varieties hard to find in the USA you can contact people from dragon fruit hunters trinidad and tobago they can carry you to get it and you can ship back the branches love your videos hope to see you in trinidad and tobago collecting our varieties and you can taste them and compared them to hana and other varieties
Thank you, I hope one day to visit your country and try your dragon fruits!
Does your pink flower fruit crack easy?
Nice technique on how to propagate dragon fruit. Tnx4sharing 👍🐉
love this for multiple varieties of dragon fruits. thanks for sharing
My pleasure 😊
I just found your channel,you explain everything very well and make this seem less intimidting! My cousin gave me a small dragon fruit plant, it's barely hanging on,but I saw a stem cutting,I'm going to take the leap and cut it. Thank you for your videos,keep up the great work!
Love your video, I baught my first Dragon fruit plant today and am going to take four plants after watching your video thnx
Thank you so much for sharing this informative video 👍👌🙌
Great Presentation. thank you Godzilla. You rock your explanations were mind blowing. Like absorbing a whole culture in a few minutes.
thank you for all the valuable info, i don't know what i would have done without you, thank you again
Thanks bro. Now I'm about to nicely take cuttings from sisters plant
best regards from Indonesia 🇲🇨🙏
I learned new ways of preparing a dragon fruit for planting. That video is very informative.
Way back then I did some stem cutting it's taking a bit of a time to grow a dragon fruit plant that way,,
Dragon fruit plant is very easy to root...i just cut and trhow them and they root :)....i guess i am lucky...its been the easiest plant ever to root....fruiting is a different story 😂😂😂
Love this. For some reason I did not know about the stem cut technique! Going to go give it a try now!
Very helpful for me as I am new to dragon fruit. Thanks so much brother ❤
This was so helpful! Thank you.
I'm so glad!
Nice video. I always learn something new from watching.👍❤️
Thanks for always watching Kristina! ❤️
Love your videos.
I have a couple a few questions.
1. I just received my first plant. It has 3 shoots, about 5 inches each, all from the same root. Should I leave all 3 on the one root ball or only leave 1 and propagate the other 2?
2. How big/long does a shoot/branch need to be before you can use it to propagate?
3. Can you do multiple cuttings from one "branch/section" leaving the top to dry out. You would end up with a peice which would callous on both ends. Once calloused you could plant one end.
4. How long does a cutting need to be proportional to the size of the cutting?
Thanks in advance for your time and answers.
Hi, great video! Dragon friut is so easy to propagate. Do you plan to continue the cutting to fruit series? I'm sure it would be very appreciated. Curious to hear whether they developed fruits, they were growing vigorously.
As usual, learned something in your video m. Planted last year and lots of buds coming out now. Mahalo! 🤙🏾
Hey, You didn't say how long the flesh taper takes before going into the soil?
Thank you for sharing
You’re welcome!
Very informative and clear description. Thank you.
Watering is my downfall. The monsoon in Tucson had my most successful plant rot. Learned a great lesson. How often do you water. I am trying all way to propagate from the better parts of the dead plant wish me luck. Great video appreciated
It's different everytime depending on the weather. I check the soil to see if it needs watering.
This channel has been so interesting to watch. I just found it. I’ve been wanting to grow a dragon fruit plant indoors for a while, but haven’t really had the time to try it out. I live in an area where the store bought dragon fruit is terrible for every reason mentioned in your videos. I have a sunny room indoors that should provide protection from the cold winters, so hey, maybe I’ll give it a go. Thanks for the content!
Great video. Just wondering how deep you plant a taper cut? After it has calloused over, do you plant it as deep as the taper?
Thanks
Thanks
Found you on Epic Gardner, thanks for sharing your knowledge of the dragon fruit.
Ryan sent me here. My mom loves dragon fruit. My family has like i think 3-5 plants of em.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks sir.
Hey bro good morning i love the way you take the time to explain the dragon fruit. My question is how long after planting the cutting and taking good care of it, will produce fruit?
Thank you brother for this kind of tips. more power and keep it up.
Yessir! Great vid as always Richard! 🔥🔥🔥
Continue the great informative work appreciate the knowledge u impart
Really enjoy your videos! Got so many Dragon fruit cuttings from your videos.
Thank you! 😁
Thanks I learned a lot!
Nice explanation I need to start this kind of work.🙂👍
Thank you for sharing this useful information 👍
Nice! I see you're finally wearing your own merch!
Love your videos Richard, very informative.
Thanks for sharing Bro. I want to grow this fruit in Cameroon.
That was excellent. Thank you so much
Super ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
All subscribed 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing this video
Thanks man
Is it good to propagate large cuttings? Like 2 plus feet? Is there any downside other than not getting multiple plants?
Thanks a lot, very informativ video. I was looking about flash cutting how to grow
Two tips when doing flesh cuts use cinnamon or tooth paste as a astringent to aid in callous. Garlic is also a good natural rooting hormone 😉
too costly bro. Raw.
the woman I bought my plants from told me to use cinnamon any time I cut out some flesh (due to fungus or just taking a cutting). She said it will protect it from infection.
@@lauranilsen8988 I do feel it slows root growth, the I’ve organics channel just did a test to see which natural rooting hormone works best compared to clonex and even sum figs benefited from cinnamon
Hi Richard! I am new to you channel and I am so inspired with all your videos. I am learning new things about dragon fruits now. I have a very old dragon fruit plant but it has never grew or produced fruits. After watching your videos I have learned that I am doing all wrong things to it. Will follow yours tips now. However, can you give tips what to do or what happens to the plants if I am staying in a very rainy place and keeping it out?
the return of the king
Fantastic, will try it out. I love propagating plants.
Feels good to be back!
Looking good man. That shirt is 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you Troy & Joy for the shirt. I love this one!! 😁
I would love one of your dragon plants
Thanks.
Thank you for a great video.
ALOHA Richard, here in Maui dragon fruit plants grow like weeds everywhere, huge mounds and up to the top of trees like in my neighbor's yard wish I could send a picture, but they don't produce fruit very often, they must be self-sterile, so I have ordered a sugar dragon to help with that. The question has been asked below but not really answered and that is in your video E3 (1:50) you state that stem cut shoots need to be dried for a few days before planting but in this video (:48) and again (4:35) you state that it is best to just plant immediately after cutting? Please help us out! we all love your videos and if you are ever in Maui let me help you out with everything! Mahalo.
Love your videos! I have a question..how much do you water once the cuttings are in pots before they’re rooted.? Thanks.
Yay thanks for this info!
So informative video. Good job. Stay also 🎉🎉🎉🎉 ❤❤
That was very comprehensive. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing
I have taken a flesh cutting and it's been well over a week now, and no sign of a callus forming. Is there anyway to speed up the process?
Brother how much days it takes for one plant to bring its roots ?
De mucha ayuda tu recomendación gracias
Good information bro.
Hi Richard,
I have never grown dragon fruit in my life and I'll be 80 years old and 3 months.
I have three different varieties of dragon fruit that have been flesh cut and callous over. Can I root them in water with the Hormex #
Thanks!,,,,
Tom
Useful
Do you have a video about fertilizing thrm, is there any "studies" on what to use ratio and amount of NPK?
The woman I bought my plants from said, "Don't use cactus soil. Use potting mix and add extra perlite. Top 1/4 soils should be Blakeys Now manure mixed with perlite. Every time u water, you are feeding the manure downward into the pot". She grows and sells lots of dragon fruit so that's what I'm doing. I think she said it will fruit in one year but the plants are cuttings from 3 yo plants. She also highly recommended once a month neem oil sprayed on the plants to prevent fungus but we live in a very humid area.
Thankyou for the video
Can we make 3-4 cuttings form one single long stem
Can we plant immediately after stem cut n then water it
great congratulations
Is there a video link to know how to identify and treat diseases on these plants
Got it, clear. Tnx.
About to take the plunge
interesting, I have put dragon fruit flesh cut directly into a cup of water and it grows roots quickly, and today my 1.4 meter tall cactus brok the tip so will be interesting to see how it deals with it, because this cactus has been growing about 0.5-1.4cm per day for a long time, so I really curious how it will behave now
Are seeds still available to ship to South Africa?
Hi I’m trying to find out what type of sand do you use
You mean flash dragons cutting should give 45 degree angle and then give time to dry before putting in soil??? Streight Flash cutting after dry also not recommended to put in soil???
Hai ,some of my Dragon plants are turning light yellow ? any reason ,how can I fix it .
I have dragon fruit and branch have part very apx .3-5"by 1" very wet(moist)(brown color)...i did cut this part , questions is why is wet? what need to done?
I got several like this one....
Hellloooo
I just love your channel and your knowledge helped me get my first flower emerging this season haha I was wondering where I could find yellow dragon fruit in the San Diego area? Maybe you sell cuttings?
Thank you, sir
Thank you
Will the new cutting from very young tree like that in video, will lated in fruit production ? hope you understand my question
I bought rooted plants that were cuttings from a 3yo plant. I was told they will produce in 1 year if I follow her directions.
Hi Richard.
Great videos and I have been watching them and learning a lot.
Also I wonder if you sell cuttings of American beauty and Vietnamese red.
I am located in Los Angeles.
Thanks
A few years ago, I purchased a dragon fruit cutting. I don't know if its a dragon fruit cutting or not, but it keeps growing from uk
You should try tipping the branches to see if you can induce or encourage budding
Would mind if ibsend you a picture of the plant
Sir any problem if the mother plant covered from soil.
Plz reply me
does any end of the cutting work?
Thank you for tech me how to do it I will try it.
Does dragonfruit listen/likes music? Coz everytime i play my music using the loudspeaker near wehre they were planted,they bear fruit more than they were before..just my observation..i play music everytime i water the plants..this year,i harvested like 3-4 times up to this date..
I wouldn’t be able to say
Do you sell your cuttings? Im looking to add to my collection, I like the unique names & flavor profiles 😇
I am from India. How can I get seeds of Dragon Fruit if procured in the US. Are they available in Supermarket like Walmart, etc. Getting cuttings from there is out of the question for me. BTW I have been watching your videos and learning from them. Thank you for all the knowledge you share.
I don’t know the process for that
Didn't realize that stem cuts can/should be planted immediately. Thank you for that. Other than possible ease of planting, any other benefit of a taperred cut versus flesh cut? Any potential detriment?
The taper cut that exposes the cambium helps stubborn cuttings that have hard time to root. The flesh cut is to help multiple a single branch as many time as much as the plant material supplies. My favorite is stem cut but it’s situational so use them as you need!
@@GraftingDragonFruit Thank you!
Hi, Wich is the best tasting fruits
Thanks
