[@vongcohuong]

[@beebop2663]

Thank you for the great instructions. I am trying to start a plant from the seeds of some fruit I have

[@dizzydiver18866881]

Thank you for all the info. I recently started growing dragon fruit in Hawaii and had a few questions I was not finding answers for, but you answered them.

[@0anant0]

Thanks! Very informative! @ 1:12, in the center of the screen, I see The Scream by Munch (rotated about 120 degrees). :-)

[@karnailsingh8894]

Namastey Is it white flash dragon plant ?

[@vongcohuong]

This one is white, I tried to grow yellow but it die.

[@haieng1213]

Very good video

[@randomt264]

Do you remove the old manure when you give more manure next feeding because the pot is full to the top?

[@vongcohuong]

If you plant in pot, after 5 -6 years you need to cut the old manure and plant in new pot, as over times roots will over grow, anh you fine the is no soil.

[@MomtazGarden]

[@vongcohuong]

[@officialtakedown5169]

Is there any way for dragon fruits to bears many fruit. Do you have any suggestions? I would like to know, I have dragon fruit cuttings here and they say it bears fruit after maturity stage or in 3 years after...

[@elpidiopena2833]

Not bad for one year old dragon fruit thanks for sharing...

[@elrefe2930]

Hi, as seeds take a long time to get fruit, so I want to germinate it from seeds until it get mature plant and then I want to take cuttings from it, so when can I decide to take cuttings from the plant which is grown from seeds??? I live in Egypt 42 c in summer, 25 in winter

[@featheredfan]

The trimming is interesting and they grow very fast. Have you gotten many flowers this year? Are you in Australia? Thanks

[@vongcohuong]

Hi, Yes I am in Australia, about the flowers not sure, we really have to wait till end of December to find out, I'll give an update on this baby as it's only one year old, the chance it will have fruit is 80%, I'll have update on other one that I have, and Thank You

[@tiffany9720]

Good to know Thanks

[@frederickfisher8513]

Where can I purchase a plant like this

[@ViolentRainbow]

How it comes out of the pot there is that two plants in one pot?

[@sreejak1652]

My dragon plants turn into thick yellow color and stem become very soft it damages entire plant. How it reduced and which fertilizers are used for this plant

[@khoichieu22]

Chao chi, what kind of fertilizer do you use and how often do you apply to the plants. Thanks in advance

[@vongcohuong]

Xin Chào. I use only 2 times a year just end of Fruit season ( in March ) then again in end of September) and I use cow compost, or Mushroom

[@khoichieu22]

CLB Cổ Nhạc Vọng Cố Hương thanks chị, I just start planting my cuttings. I live in northern part of Florida and it's been raining alot here, will that affect my cuttings from rooting? And how long after the cuttings are planted in the soil before they starts rooting?

[@vongcohuong]

Hi. I live in Aus in Sydney. I thinking rain is ok, the only time they don't like rain is when it fruiting season . well for it to start root here is only about 2 to 3 weeks .

[@khoichieu22]

CLB Cổ Nhạc Vọng Cố Hương thank you

[@CSAcitizen]

How cold can dragon fruits take it ? Do they ever need to be covered ? Is horse manure a good fertilizer for Dragon Fruit ? I use horse manure for all my plants and they thrive. But I'm not as familiar with these plants and what fertilizers to use. Or if they like alkaline or acidic soil. I assume alkaline.

[@lucynewmai4315]

Can we replant the small one which u r cutting off?

[@vongcohuong]

I try that but it really slow.

[@samn106]

When you get those little growths, how long does it take for them to get bigger? I've been seeing and reading up on this for a while now and everyone says when your dragon fruit cutting gets a root system established and starts growing new branches the new branches can grow an inch or an inch and a half a day. I have a couple of cuttings that started growing a new branch about a month ago and up untile now the new growth is an inch long. Its growing very very slow. Am i doing something wrong or is this normal for now?

[@vongcohuong]

Hi. It really is normal. As it depends on where you live . As each part the weather is not the same . As for me if 4 new growth starts to grow on 1 older one. I just cut 2 and leave 2 . That way the 2 left grow faster.

[@ranchodafelicidade1521]

Muito bom maravilha sua plantação de pitayas

[@shaglilredd]

do U sell the Dragon Friut cuttings..I want some...plese

[@vongcohuong]

+Lillie M. Redd HI , I do sell them on Ebay but in Australia only, and it fruit season so I don;t put on sale till at the end of fruit seaon

[@MrHollywoodCoe]

+CLB Cổ Nhạc Vọng Cố Hương look at my video

[@haydenngo]

Mine flowered but won't fruit, is there a something I am not doing?

[@MrHollywoodCoe]

yes

[@MrHollywoodCoe]

***** You may need two types of Dragon fruit plants because some are not self pollinated. That's why I use 3 types

[@spookytay]

Hayden Hayden I think you need atleast 2 different plants and transfer pollen from 1 plants flower to another (assuming it's inside or there are no bes, bats, or other insects in your area to pollinate it (them)

[@spookytay]

MrHollywoodCoe chill

[@vongcohuong]

MrHollywoodCoe Please be nice

[@GrowWhereYouArePlanted]

Did the plant flower and fruit?

[@vongcohuong]

Oh yes, the baby have flower, I'll give an update in another couple of day, I recorded it 2 weeks ago and I gave it to a friend the next day, so I don't have it now,

[@butikingbotikabituka1343]

My dragon fruit tree is 3 years old and no fruits at all.what should i do?

[@redangrybird7564]

Some cactus look like dragon fruit but aren't, they are just ornamental and only give flowers.

[@0anant0]

Also look at the thread where it say, it may need another variety to cross-pollinate. Also try hand-pollinating

[@ViolentRainbow]

Are all species self pollinating? They only have white ones at the nursery here, I want to buy just one but they don't even know if they are self pollinating variety or not :L

[@winkle4545]

990

[@0anant0]

Not all species/varieties are self-pollinating. I bought a few from Cal Poly Pomona Nursery and their website has a lot of varieties for sale (though shipped only to California addresses), but that website has info on whether a particular variety is self-pollinating or not.

[@volker11]

hi i have a few questions?! how big/size are the pots you are planting? what is type of soil mix do you use and prefer to use? i have a monster size one grow in a huge pot and i need to cut some of the legs off and plant them into a new pot. my huge one is like 2 or maybe 3 years old. what type of dragon fruit do you have like color of fruit inside it and are they self pollination or cross or hand? mine i have 5 types/color of mine. the biggest one is a white hand pollination one. my second white is a self pollination. my third is a redgish self pollination, my forth is a self pollination reddish/purplish color and finally my firth is a pinkish/purplish color that is cross or hand pollination, i think cross lol. one last thing, in Australia do you have different kinds of dragon fruit that have names of the plant, so you know which kind you want to buy so you dont keep buying the same one if you didnt like that kind? in florida usa we do. this is the company in my state that sells all different kinds of dragon fruit to all over my state/other states and lots of different countries. google pine island nursery if you want to see like 30 different kinds.color of dragon fruit or tons of different kind of tropic fruit plants thanks

[@vongcohuong]

volker11 - Hi, I normally plant them in the ground, but this one was plant in the pot as I don't have anymore space, and with this one is more to make video clip to show other how I plant my dragon fruit, and to see it it will fruit in 1 year or not. with the soil I use garden mix and with cow compost, other people like to use mushroom they work well. if you have a 2 or 3 years it is time to cut and plant in new pot, I find that growing them in pot after 3 years they don't have much fruit and they don't have new growth as much. with all my plant when there is 3 to 4 new growth I just rid of them just leaving 1 new growth per plant. so it be nice and neat. and growing in pot after about 2 years they don't have any soil left in there. the type of dragon fruit I have, truly I dont really know, I have about 3 only but after planting them in the same ground same frame there kind of like cross pollinated so there is 2 other type. with the name I really don't know, as we had friend gave them to us in the first time, then down the years we just collect from other friend. In Australia there is nursery that sell them and they do have name, but must of us here living in Sydney they just go to friend that have dragon fruit and ask for a cutting. :) . which the cutting is about 70cm long. they will grow faster then the on in nursery only have cutting about 15 - 20cm. and all my dragon fruit is self pollinated.

[@Mrbfgray]

Mine never grow like that.

[@vongcohuong]

It need lots of sun, they don't need lots of water,

[@MomtazGarden]

informative video, thanks for sharing:)

[@47alfio60]

thanks lady, very informative. Will these grow in Perth? I will seek you out on eBay if so...

[@carlvindevogel8061]

i was looking for one answer but didn't came .... , i think yes , this is cactus country , i am at southern of Madagasscar , practically the same climate as in some Ausy regions , very dry and mostly very hot

[@janetboyle6577]

47alfio60 yes my son Simon Boyle grows them, look him up on Facebook 👌

[@Mari443Garrett1]

How many years does it take from the time you plant it for a dragon fruit to start bearing fruit?

[@vongcohuong]

Mari443Garrett1 : Hi, well I am not sure in other area, but where I live is 1 year, the video clip above is the plant that is fruit just after 1 year, I'll give an update later, but I gave that pot to a friend, they said it has a total 11 dragon fruits

[@carlvindevogel8061]

hello dear Dragon Girl , is it possible to grown by seeds ?

[@vongcohuong]

Hi. I never try from growing seed before. But u have seen it on other KZbin videos that's other have done it. But never seen an update on it. So not sure how much it would grow

[@carlvindevogel8061]

i have seen a few ones , with different stadiums grow'n but no one ho get fruits or flowers even , so yes i wonder also if grown by seeds can harvest de Fruits to , have pretty evening dear CLB

[@vongcohuong]

[@TuongVy18-happy]

Hi Chi What kind is compost should I use for the dragon fruit plant? Is it cow compost? Thanks chi !

[@vongcohuong]

Cow compost is really fine, that's what I use

[@miragonzales6060]

..not yet giving fruit?..

[@Viet174]

it would be better if you till the compose in with the soil instead of just leaving it on top.

[@dragonworld2008]

I want to build one . Because they don't sell any dragon fruit in the stores where I live . But they use to in the 1980's . I have such a small yard with no soil to grow any thing . I need to get a big pot and some wood . We have a Asian store that sell good mango fruit . The American store Mango fruit never gets ripe . it always turn bad and stays green . But not the Asian mango fruit store fruit mango's .

[@JaneDoe-ip5yl]

I would like to build the trellis. Better than other things I see around.

[@heatherralston6440]

Mine are all diseased :( I will grow in pots if i can get more

[@GrowWhereYouArePlanted]

Thanks!

[@saluto1397]

I am not surprised how this is just a showcase video and not really a tips and teaching video. No info on fertilizer, watering ,temperature. Even questions aboutvbasic info has been left unanswered. I have noticed a lot many dragon fruit growers just keep back the real info

[@vongcohuong]

Hi, thank you for your comment, this video is just updated from the video 1 year from this clip. I made another clip 3months from that showing it has fruits ,but i didn't upload as i list the clip. As I'm not a dragons fruit farmer, I m just growing as a hobby, but on other video that I made. I have show and try to answer, as much about how I grow, watering, fertilisering and about the weather, but I can only tell people how I grow to where I live. As a hobby there is really nothing to hide. Sharing the experience, others happy , Cheers
