When do you have cuttings for sale? Please lemme know and i always check your website and always sold out . Can i reserve or sign in for the waiting list if you have one? tyia
I may have stock this week depending on how my pop up goes! In the meantime subscribe to my news letter so you’ll know when the website gets back in stock and you’ll be notified by email.
I would imagine cosmic Charlie pollen can cross pollinate dragon fruits it's not related to? I was in a position where all I had available was the pollen from Charlie and another that could not self pollinate and the pollen from each worked out.
Great video. When you get a chance, can you post a spreadsheet of varieties that can not be used to pollinate each other? Or maybe color code your self fertile/cross pollinate list? For example, purple haze, physical graphiti, delight, dark star, cosmic charlie would be all highlighted red which mean they are from the same orgin and their pollens can not be used for cross pollination. Thanks.
for how professional, informative, and how cool dragon fruit is, I'm surprised that you don't have many people on your channel. That dragon fruit is massive! Keep up the great work my friend.
I liked this video, somehow it felt more like your old format videos which were the best! A little more “natural”, educational and friendly. It’s always nice to see you. At the same time, the old format videos were the best! (In my opinion)
In your opinion, what line of dragon fruit is better. The asunta or the Paul Thompson? Kinda limited in space so I want to grow something that I know will be enjoyable for years.
Have you tried other dragon fruits in different stages of ripeness like the asunta 5? Would be great to have a list of the varieties that may taste better when they're not fully ripen.
Yes, once I harvest all the fruits they will get fertilizer but it will be all purpose fertilizer or earth worm castings until spring comes again. That’s when I’ll switch back to blooming fertilizer. I use Dr earth brand.
Why does the white dragon fruit begin to turn red from the bottom of the fruit after successful pollination after two weeks and the inner pulp that eats from the fruit does not form?
I am so happy that you’re able to watch and understand my videos by translating them! You are very dedicated! Thank you for watching. Are you from Japan?
Hi just have a quickquestion. I have been noticing that a lot of the websites that carry Dragonfruit plants and cuttings are all out of stock . Dont know if it has a problem in the industry rightnow. Can you shed some light on this please.
Dragonfruits grow very slow and only put out a certain amount of new growth each season. A lot of growers don’t like to over prune their plants to sell cuttings so it’s always pretty limited everytime a plant is ready to take cuttings. This is what the supply is always so low. Growers also like to keep their branches and not cut them for sale so they can get more fruit.
Hey Richard love your videos 🤗 was wondering if anyone had a running record of like a family chart of Dragon Fruit. I’ve heard yourself and Edgar touch base on a few hybrids and their parents but would be super awesome if there was more information or a video!
Glad you enjoy them! Not that I know of at the moment. There are way too many varieties to have an accurate record. Definitely a cool project for someone to take on.
BRUH I just harvested my Cosmic Charlie a few days ago it was the most beautiful deep pink, definitely one of the most aesthetically pleasing dragonfruit flesh I've ever seen. It did taste like lemon and dirt though 😂
@@GraftingDragonFruit I love your videos, you are the reason i got into DF...your ability to go into detail clearly makes your videos the best to watch...Keep up the good work my friend... much Love and Aloha from Hawaii 🤙
@@GraftingDragonFruit Hey Richard sorry I have a very important question, when making a v-taper cut how long do you let it dry before rooting it in water???
Dragonfruit is usually ready to harvest after 40-45 days. Some varieties can take longer but just make sure to check your fruit for signs of ready for harvest. Once the fruit turns red wait another 4-5 days for it to get plump and round. Also if it wiggles on the branch loosely it’s another sign it’s ready.
What questions do you have about your dragon fruits? Let me now below 👇 Thanks for watching!
Can Red La Vern and Pink La Vern pollinate each other?

Yes, it has worked for me when I tried it.

There might be one floating around in my facebook group somewhere. I don't have an official spread sheet. There's over 500 varieties
I found myself smiling as you shared this Cosmic Charlie fruit. Yummers!
I'm glad! Thanks for watching

How can I buy Cosmic Charlie?
Great explanation Bro, Thanks a lot.
What did you cross polinate it with?
Where can you grow this fruit? Does it has to be in hot weather only?
What date do you write on the branch? When it was pollinated? When it set fruit?
When it’s pollinated
In your opinion, what line of dragon fruit is better. The asunta or the Paul Thompson? Kinda limited in space so I want to grow something that I know will be enjoyable for years.
Paul Thompson much better
Paul Thompson has very good dragon fruit line. They are all very good. I haven’t taste one I didn’t like from PT.
Thank you guys for the advice. The Paul Thompson do seem to grow much bigger fruits.
When is the right time to graft dragon fruit. Thank you. 👍🙏👍
I would graft after winter is over
@@GraftingDragonFruit Thank you👍🙏👍
Have you tried other dragon fruits in different stages of ripeness like the asunta 5? Would be great to have a list of the varieties that may taste better when they're not fully ripen.
I haven’t but planning to start experimenting more on that
Do you have Palora grafted on undatus? Do u think it changes the fruit flavour compared with the rooted one? Thanks a lot!
All my paloras are clones of the one I grafted a long time ago. It shouldn't change fruit flavors compared to rooted ones.
What do you do with all the dragon fruits that you grow?
I usually give it to my friends and family
Is there a dragon fruit plant that you know of that can grow in the snow?
I do not as I have never encountered snow here in SoCal
Very nice ❤
Thanks 🤗
Nice content 👍
Thanks for watching!
Where do I get or buy it
Please try out the wallace ranch hybrid
After you pollinate the flower till harvesting time you still keep on fertilising the plant richard???
Yes, once I harvest all the fruits they will get fertilizer but it will be all purpose fertilizer or earth worm castings until spring comes again. That’s when I’ll switch back to blooming fertilizer. I use Dr earth brand.
No no i asked you while the fruit is ripening. You can water with fish emulsion once a week?
Do you have favorite recipes that use Dragon fruit or do you eat it raw or frozen.
I usually eat it fresh or turn into ice cream recently
Why does the white dragon fruit begin to turn red from the bottom of the fruit after successful pollination after two weeks and the inner pulp that eats from the fruit does not form?
It means it’s aborting and didn’t make it

Good fruit, but cause mouth sore and a lot of pain, I eat it for a week and as soon as I stop it went away be careful
You might be allergic to them
Is Cosmic Charlie self fertile?
NM I just heard it from your video, it’s self sterile
Yeah self-sterile but worth it!
What is your favorite dragon fruit for taste alone.
This season it has been grape pop and white sapphire
My dragon fruit is small
Try cross pollinating with a bigger variety. Some varieties are just small as well
self pollinating?
I mean the plant?
BRUH I just harvested my Cosmic Charlie a few days ago it was the most beautiful deep pink, definitely one of the most aesthetically pleasing dragonfruit flesh I've ever seen. It did taste like lemon and dirt though 😂
Ouch! Completely different experience lol. Was this your first year fruiting?
Put me on your list for a cutting. Let me know.

8/24受粉のが色づいてきました。収穫までは60日待てば充分でしょうか?これ迄ずっと最高気温35℃でした。
どれかの動画で説明あるかも知れませんが、英語読解力無くて、質問させていただきます。
