Luke - i'm a grower and here in Costa Rica the red variety is native, I would like to provide some feedback/correction - the advantageous root or however you called it is a 'holding root' - Pitahaya (dragon Fruit) does not feed from those, in the wild they are not on the ground either they are extremely tenacious climbers so they use these aereal roots to cling to trees. You should always plant dragonfruit near a tree trunk or provide artificial sticks so that it can climb :) - Also the Red Variety is less common and also sweeter, and its much much prettier to consume as it will leave juice or dishes you make out of it with a deep pink/fucsia color that looks extremely yummy! - also its ridiculously healthy. One last piece of advice, dragonfruit normally is 3 layers but if you get a random segment born with 4 sides PLEASE DO NOT CUT IT - you just got yourself a MALE polinizer! so praise your plant, she loves you. These stems will polinize the non-self pollinizing varieties ensuring you will have viable fruit but also they produce 3-4x more fruits so be really happy!
Thanks for your info Joe
Thanks joe, I get the adventitious thing now.
Thanks for the info Joe, pura vida!
Muchas gracias Joe Sotelo. Deberias de hacer un video dando toda esta informacion. Aqui en USA estamos en pañales y yo quiero comprarme una, pero dime tu que sabes mas, que tipo de tierra se le pone, yo vivo en Phoenix Az aqui es caliente en verano y seco, que me recomiendas si eres tan amable?
I kind of think that the red one looks and tastes like a beet lol. Maybe the one I had was unripe or something? The sweetest dragon fruit I've ever had was the yellow variety
I have planted both of the red and white dragon fruit seed they have struck very well quickly in the less than a week I got 50 white and 60 of the red and nearly 100% I am very pleased with the quality of the seeds that I bought from a seller in Australia
many thx for the simple guide. just got myself several pieces of dragon fruit cuttings from a relative of mine. your guide just make myself more excited in planting them immediately. thank you
Yellow dragon fruit is the sweetest and best tasting fruit... thanks for the info!
discover this channel today, lol im happy to see you here too Luke
Cool video thanks. Mine died from frost in Northern CA. I will try again and protect it winter.
Awesome advice! I'm growing mine from seed and super excited!
I just bought 3 cuttings online and looking for a vid on how to grow the cuttings and stumble on to this and I like, hey he is MIgardener, I subscribed to his vid. Nice to watch you here too, Luke.
thanks for sharing your very important basic information techniques Master.
@Larry's. orchard ,love the sun/heat/ hot puns that you make on the video,ha ha.
Thanks so much for this. I've grown a pot of dragon fruit cactus' from seeds. I have them in my window and I need to re-pot and feed them.
I've been growing these for almost 2 years and I put this video on in the background while I was doing something else and I'm like what the heck this guy sounds like Luke!?

Adventitious roots arise out-of-sequence from the more usual root formation of branches of a primary root, and instead originate from the stem, branches, leaves, or old woody roots. They commonly occur in monocots and pteridophytes, but also in many dicots, such as clover (Trifolium), ivy (Hedera), strawberry (Fragaria) and willow (Salix). Most aerial roots and stilt roots are adventitious. In some conifers adventitious roots can form the largest part of the root system.
i started mine 2 years ago from the red fruit seed. i didn't do much to it other than just let it grow wild in flower pots. now im stuck with this crazy wild awesome plant, started afew more from clippings. its has not fruited for me yet.
I live in Minnesota, can I put it by 3 east window and outside in summer? I'll keep it in for winter but I wanna know.
is there a way you could make a part 2 going even further in detail? I'm starting a white dragon fruit from seed, germinating it with wet paper towel and a Ziploc moving it from outside to inside since there still seeds. I'm also in Florida so I feel the weather will be loved by the plant. thanks alot for the video!
A friend of mine gave me a small dragon fruit cactus and an aloe cactus that were both in the same pot. he only told me that i needed to water them when they get dry.. i had no idea that i should be using fertilizer and a steak to keep the dragon fruit growing upwards!
also, is there any reason why my dragon fruit cactus has been getting soft? when I received it, the skin felt like it was very healthy and cactus like. I've been keeping it watered and near a window during the day and then move it away from the window and onto a small heating pad at night because its getting too cold in my apartment. I've had it for about a month now and it hasn't begun sprouting roots or growing at all.. I'm worried that it won't grow because I'm not doing something right for it but i dont know what it needs me to do. Is there anything you could suggest to help my cactus regain its suppleness and start to grow?
I bought 4 white do u know when u will get more red and white
Przepiękne te kaktuski, urocze.:):):):):):):)
All pretty much basic, common sense info. It would be helpful if you gave some tips and tricks of when things go wrong, ie why flowers drop off before setting fruit, etc. Thanks
There is a bit of misinformation in this video. These are not desert plants, and the side roots allow them to climb into the canopy of the jungle. You also do not want to put a cutting into soil until its callused over. Otherwise it will rot.
Hi a friend gave me a small cactus and the roots are growing on the sides it has 2 close to each other what do I do next
Hi,
I have some seeds of them but I live in subtropical country so winters are cold in here. Do I need to buy a greenhouse for more moisture and warmer air? Because I want the fruits in 2-3 years. No more longer
Cem Mirata I live in Boston, MA and have lots of tropicals. You can certainly do this but make sure your home is warm during the winter time and bring them out in the summer and in when its cold
Hey, Luke! Just stumbled on this vid! Didn't know you did other vids besides MIgardener! K, question is: how long does it take for cuttings to begin bearing fruit??
+jules digs it takes about 1-2 years for the cuttings to fruit! And yes, this was my part time job! I love what I do.
+AuSable Botanicals Ltd. hey friend you should do jackfruit next.
Just so you're aware, from a horticultural perspective, they are normally called adventitious roots. This word has no relation to the word advantageous.
Adventitious roots have no advantage? sheesh.
I live in Canada and started a dragon fruit from seed over a year ago. It's about 5 inches tall.
How would you suggest that I nature it? Its south facing. What type of pot? Fertilizer?
could you do a growing guide for jackfruit?
Web Site For Sale ? IS this place still around ?
can someone help me. my moms plant has been growing for over 7 yrs. she has no post. there has never been one fruit grown. what is she doing wrong? thanks
Thank you for the video :))
I've got a gragon fruit indoor - Hylocereus undatus, is it self pollinating plant?
Most variaties are
Hey can i grow them in a hanging pot 3 gallons and be safe as well as get fruit
Great video but how can you make your dragon fruit plant produce fruit?
hey..would you please tell me how much time to take a dragon fruit cut reduce root..
what is the best medium for growing in pots?
Hi Luke,Are the dragon fruit still in the inventory?
What happens when it gets soft should I though it away
Thanks so much
My dragon fruit flowered but I don't think they were pollinated because we don't have bats or moths in our part of Texas. Can they be pollinated by hand? Maybe you can do a video on that.
Soft brush on the pollen of a flower can be spread to the other flowers gently. Try planting more than one if it is outside.
From where we can get drag an fruit plant in india
Hi, Larry! Can we grow the dragon fruit plant without a support next to a large, very mature, prickly pear cactus? Can the two co-exist?
Yes, but do not use them as trellises
And keep 3 meters distance
what is the nominal PH range for Dragonfruit?
Can you use fish fertilizer on Dragon Fruit?
hi sir ... i think yes cause its rich in potassium if im not mistaken... some integrated aquaponics agri business do that..
Why do my seedlings have Spikes, I got them from the actual fruit?
could you plant the dragon fruit in a hydroponic gardening
we planted ours in a aquaponics system. they pretty much grow faster but we havent yet seen them flower.
I'm so confused about this. Luke, who is Larry?
Could they be grown in Sacramento?
chickensnipz Yes
result?
How do I cure a disease like fungus on cacti?
Make sure the plant is hardened before planting the cutting. I had contaminated soil on one and the aphids ate the roots then the cactus. You may try a cutting to save part of it. You may try an Organicide soil drench to see if that helps. Otherwise it is likely dying. Make sure the ph of the soil is neutral or better. I hope this helps even if it is probably too late.
I have to fertilize it? But I'm a cheapo! Well, maybe the good soil my neighbor's cat gifted us with will help.
Where can I buy these at or how would I start to grow one with the seeds
how long does it take to grow dragon fruit from seed? Also, what happens during the winter?
I read it will take 6 years to flower fruit from seed. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Leann Layton bruh this was a year ago
Bruh? Your comment is a year old
Leann Layton that’s what I mean. I asked the question over a year ago. I don’t need the answer anymore lmao.
@@XXalphaXX328filming bruh why did you ask then
All cacti are succulents.
.....Luke?
Fertilize every two weeks?! With 10-10-10?!?!?! Dude, I'm glad I know enough to tune out after hearing that.. DO NOT FERTILIZE BABY PLANTS! you can just use good dirt.
I saw this guy screaming at a bounded and blind folded woman to SHUT UP on an online webcam chatroom.
It is adventitious, not advantageous. Has nothing to do with advantage. Look up adventitious.
The best way to start dragon fruit is, I used a Rubbermaid container, put holes in bottom, use cactus potting mix, water, cover with lid, put on stove, turn oven on to 300 till oven goes off, do this three times a day and watch your dragon fruit grow, I did this and it took just 5 days for me to get 10 sprouts.....
This guy looks like ***** but he has a different name??
That is me lol. Larry's Orchids is who I work for as a content creator. Gotta make a living somehow.
@@MIgardener Hi
There is a bit of misinformation in this video. These are not desert plants. They don't mind hot weather but grow best with some shade in hot areas, they burn in the sun. It's ovious you have never grown a Dragon Fruit as you would know you don't grow this tree on the ground and it requires serious staking as it can get very heavy. You should do your research before making a video.
Half the time just talk n talk
the white tastes better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
