This channel is a great resource both for beginner growers as for professional growers who are just finding out about the succulent c. and want to learn more. I've been attempting to grow Dragon Fruit in northern Tuscany for last six months, testing all your grafting techniques; great videos! thank you
@@JuanPerez-gb9sm no grafting doesn’t create a hybrid, the rootstock thinks the grafted top is it’s own and feeds it and the top feeds the rootstock but the top is what ends up growing the rootstock is just the bottom part
Thanks for this tutorial, I will do this right now, I already have a Pithaya plant on the ground planted from seeds but it have more than 3 years without any fruit, so, I will try this with some branches that gift me a neightbour from her Pithaya plant who is already giving fruits. Hope this can help to have fruits soon from my plant. Thanks a lot
Did you root the remainder of the cutting or did you use segments to make additional grafts? I have a Palora cutting and thought I might cut it up into 4 pieces to make 4 grafts but was wondering if you only used tip portions for scions. Thanks
I used the whole branch and made 5 segments of grafts with it. You can do the same as you just described to me. It's better if you graft them then let it root. They will grow faster once you graft the segments.
Great stuff 👍🏽. I grafted a yellow variety on to an American beauty, could I expect the fruit to come quicker? Also, yellows are known to fruit later in the year, can the graft have the fruit produce earlier in the year? Lastly, does the fruit taste change at all from the graft of two different varieties? 🤔
Yes, you can expect the fruit to come quicker. When you graft onto a mature rootstalk it increases growth and nutrition to your graft which will result in fruiting in less amount of time. Yellows, fruit the same when season comes. As long as it gets a lot of sun and the weather is warm they will produce fruit. The fruit doesn’t change taste when grafted, it’s only borrowing it’s root system to increase its growth. The graft will be true to its taste.
Please what kinds of dragon did you graft? Is it yellow palora on purple dragon.? Thank you for your useful videos.. Greetings and best wishes from Egypt
Hi Richard, learning constantly about the dragon fruit as last season was my first. Can you tell me the reason for the cleft graft, does it enable a young limb, if grafted to a more established limb, to produce fruit quicker??
Hi Richard, thanks for posting these videos! I also saw on the Wallace Rance Dragon Fruit farm that they have a Wallace Ranch Graft Hybrid. Their description states "The Wallace Ranch Graft Hybrid is a new variety created by Julio Robles. It was done by grafting young vertical halves of Sugar Dragon and Vietnamese White together, removing new growths of sugar dragon and Vietnamese white branches." Can you post a video that shows how to do this??? THanks!
Do not buy though, because grafting cannot make new varieties. They can have a bigger fruit on their own graft because nutrition is reinforced from 2 branches, but I highly doubt that would make a fruit of normal weight of 200gr become 800gr. When they sell you the cutting it's merely a sugar dragon cutting! From the description they split the 2 stems all the way from top to bottom and tied them together, similar technique to 2 root stocks on 1 tree which make the plant grow at the speed of 2.
Where did you get you polara yellow dragon fruit plant I have been wanting that variety for a long time but I can’t find it anywhere . And amazing video bye the way 😊😊😊. If you have any more cuttings I am more than willing to buy some off of you I live in Anaheim,California
I got the Palora yellow Dragon fruit from germinating the seed. I grafted my seedling onto a mature rootstalk to enhance growth so now I have cuttings to use as other grafting methods. If you watch the How to graft a dragon fruit seedling video that I have on my channel it will also help you get yellow dragon fruit cuttings in a short amount of time. Thanks for watching! I will have some cuttings available in the next year when they have fully matured. Stay tune to see when I release to the public for sales.
Hey Richard make a video where you give an explanation the benefits of each type of graft. I have watched lots of your videos and maybe I missed something but it would be good to have this all in one video.
Thanks for the very helpful video! Is this your favorite type of grafting technique when you have a large cutting? Also, would it be beneficial to cut more material off the back side of the scion, so that the cambium on BOTH sides of the scion touches the cambium of the rootstock?
Hi David, I’m glad you found my videos helpful. Thanks for watching! I would definitely say this is my favorite grafting technique when I have small or large cuttings. It’s a simple way of keeping things together without it getting lose and anyone can do it with the right guidance like this video you watched. I’ve tried other methods and found this to be universally easy for anyone to try even if you’ve never graft before. The trick is always lining up the cambium layers with each other. I’ve tried both ways when I shave off more on the back so the scion can match on both sides but my results always end up the same. I shave only a little on the back now because one time I accidentally shaved off to much and thinned out the cambium from both sides. Lol oops, so that’s my experience with that. Hope this helps!
David, I get about a 90% success rate when doing the “Cleft Graft” method. The only time it would fail on me is if I misaligned the cambium layers with each other. If those always line up you’ll always get a good bond between the graft and rootstock. One more advice I want to add is if you want HIGH success rate they are best grafted when you cut the scion 1.5 - 2 inches deep, they are strongest when graft this way.
I tried your cleft method, and it worked really well. Did 2 grafts and they both took. After several weeks, they sprouted new growth. I like the method because the scion is well-stabilized after insertion.
I'm so glad I saw this! I will definitely be giving this a try. But do you know if there are any particular varieties that are good to use as rootstock?
Hi David Stack, I’m glad you found this demonstration helpful. Particular varieties that are great rootstocks would be your vigorous growing varieties like Vietnam White. They get real big and grow fairly quick in a short amount of time. So it has been my go to variety when I am grafting. It’s large branches makes it easier to handle. They are very hardy variety that can withstand hot and cold tempeture very well. Hope this helps!
David Stack grafting dragon fruit is fairly new and not talked about a lot. That is why I created this channel, to spread the new and innovative way to increase the speed and growth of young dragon fruits. Thank you for watching and I hope you have success on your dragon fruit grafts. I’m here to answer any questions if needed.
I just purchased a dragon fruit cutting that I am going to root. The cutting is quite large over 12”. Is it possible to just cut 6” off the top of the same plant once the cutting has rooted and then use it to graft onto the same plant? Thanks!
will it speed up growth if graft one variety onto the same variety? eg if I graft american beauty onto american beauty or vietnam white onto vietnam white??
I love yellow dragon fruit but don’t know where to buy it locally. So I grow the yellow dragon fruit from the seeds I saved. Can you graft a yellow dragon fruit branch to a red dragon fruit based? Then the yellow dragon fruit won’t lose its character and taste when it bears its own fruit right? Hope you have time to answer my question. Thank you
Hi VX, Yes that is correct! If you use the red dragon fruit as your base rootstalk and graft the yellow dragon fruit onto it. They won’t change characteristics. Your yellow dragon fruit will keep all its characteristics and mature and fruit quicker for you.
My Yellow varieties are out of stock until Spring time. You can check with me again around that time for availability. I’m from California. They will be $15 each for Colombian Yellow or $20 for Ecuador Yellow this one will be limited.
It’s not necessary, but it is done to combine certain traits to make a better plant. For example, if you want a slow growing variety to grow quickly, you would graft a vigorous growing variety as the root stock and the slow growing variety on the top. This way, you can get a fast growing plant.
You didn't mention anything about washing your hands beforehand? I red somewhere that keeping it sterile and clean is very important but of course I am not sure... I have hips of DF BUT they never gave me fruits- I get lovely huge flowers but this is it just flowers no fruits I have tried hand pollination with brush ABD my hand but nothing worked Thanks fir the lovely video!! Where are you located ? Australia?
Hi Sasha Li, if you are hand pollinating your DF flowers and still not having success this might mean you need to cross pollinate them with a different pollen source from another dragon fruit variety. Some DF can’t accept pollen from their own flower so you have to introduce different ones from other flowers. This will help your fruits stay on and prevent it from falling off. I’m from California 😁
Thanks for the great video. One question please. I have about 112 dragon fruit plants that I'd like to graft four different color on one plant. Is there a specific color of fruit I should use as a base for the grafting? Again, thanks for the great video.
Hi Richard, I have successfully grown healthy dragon fruit plants. I wonder what variety these are. I suspect these are the self sterile ones since the pistil protrudes high above the anthers. My question is, can I buy or ask from you the white vietnamese variety or whatever fast growing specie you recommend. I will use it to cross pollinate the existing one that I have. Hope you can help on this matter. Thank you.
And what kind dragon fruit are made by using cleft method sorry new to this but ready to start my own garden and please show how to grow in condominium buildings would appreciate thanks
Hello my question with the grafting of any type is what happens if the root stock that you using below is a different variety and begins to send out branches what should you do.
Hi Trang Nguyen, if your branches are started to turn yellow then its a sign that there is too much direct sunlight on that branch to handle. Moving it into the shade for a portion of the day when the sun is at the most intense heat will definitely help it improve. Also if the yellowing continues then your Dragon Fruit might be lacking Iron and Magnesium. You can feed this to them by adding EPSOM salt to water and feeding that to them once a week. 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt per 1 gallon of water will be your ratio to mix.
Grafting doesn't help with crossing varieties, that has to be done by taking pollen from 1 variety and successfully using it on a different variety's flower. Grafting is just to help speed up growth or to have more than 1 variety on a plant. Some variety grow more vigorously so if you graft a slower growing variety on a vigorous variety's rootstock it should help speed it up a little.
Hello GDF, great video. What is the point of doing this, is it simply an experiment or are you producing a cross breed. I am not being rude i just want to learn as i have started my DF projects. Thanks
Shasha, mix 1tbsp of epsom salt per gallon of water. Mix it and let it dissolve all the way and feed it to your dragon fruits once a week until you see that it has improved.
Grafting doesn't cross the fruits, that has to be done by pollination. Take pollen from 1 variety and pollinate a different variety's flower, that's how people are creating different varieties. Grafting is just used to help speed up the growth of some slower varieties by grafting them onto a variety that grows quicker. Or to add more than 1 variety to a plant you would have to graft
If you Graft a yellow dragonfruit onto a red or white flesh. You will only get Yellow dragonfruit, what grafting does it it allows the grafting material to borrow its rootstalk to feed itself to grow faster and stronger quicker. Which will result in a yellow dragonfruit in your scenario.
is there anyway I can contact you? I really need your helo with my grafted two months ago. Its not producing new shoots. But still fressh and is connected to the rootstock

Can I graft different species of dragon fruit to one plant?

When grafting two varieties, what type of fruit will you get?
Grafting doesn't cross the fruits, that has to be done by pollination. Take pollen from 1 variety and pollinate a different variety's flower, that's how people are creating different varieties. Grafting is just used to help speed up the growth of some slower varieties by grafting them onto a variety that grows quicker. Or to add more than 1 variety to a plant you would have to graft
