How to plant dragon fruit at home / how to grow dragon fruit at home from cutting

Did you know how to plant dragon fruit at home. Many people ask me how to grow dragon fruit at home from cutting. This video will share with you how to plant dragon fruit until harvest.
Dragon fruit is subtropical plant it originate from South America. The fruit is unique and super delicious. You can plant dragon fruit from seeds or from cutting at home. Buy some dragon fruit in mall or supermarket. Separate the flash and seeds and try to dry under the sun. Sow in high quality of potting mix. It start to sprout after 6 to 21 days. If you want to plant dragon fruit from cutting you can buy from your friends or buy from online sellers.
Bear in mind that planting dragon fruit from seed will take too long to bear fruit that is about 3 or 4 years. So better to plant dragon fruit from cutting. It only take a couple of month to produce fruits. Two method that you can plant dragon fruit from cutting are first sprout them in soil and second sprout them in water. It take 3 weeks or more to produce roots.
Take note that dragon fruit have two type of fruiting. Those are called self-fertile (self-pollinate) and self sterile (cross-pollinate). You can choose any varieties that you want to plant like Connie Mayer Dragon Fruit, American Beauty Dragon Fruit, Cebra Dragon fruit, Vivid purpurea Dragon fruit, Dark Star Dragon Fruit, Asunta Dragon Fruit, Ecuador yellow Dragon fruit etc etc.
In this video will show you some of activities when you plant dragon fruit from cutting like:
1. Sprouting dragon fruit cutting
Choose the best cutting or you can buy cutting in online.
2. Potting soil preparation
Use fertile and loose soil and enough nutrient for planting dragon fruit. You can buy potting mix that available in your area. I just use potting mix with soil, compost rice husk and dolomite (homemade potting soil).
3. Planting dragon fruit cutting in pot
If you have limited space you can plant dragon fruit in pot. Choose large pot about 20 liters and above to plant your dragon dragon fruit cutting.
4. Planting dragon fruit cutting container
You can also plant dragon fruit in large containers.
5. Planting dragon fruit cutting in the ground
Usually people choose this for planting their dragon fruit. If you plant dragon fruit in the ground it growth faster.
6. Watering dragon fruit plants
Dragon fruit plant not necessarily to water everyday. You can water your dragon fruit when the surface is start to dry. So water it twice a week. Don't forget to water your cutting after planting.
7. Weeding
Most important is remove weeds on area of yours dragon fruit. Here in my country Malaysia, weeds faster to grow.
8. Fertilization
Use any type of fertilizer high in nitrogen. You can use organic fertilizer or chemical fertilizer.
9. Pruning dragon fruit branch
Choose a small shoots to cut.
10. Fruiting fertilization
When you dragon fruit plant matured enough, try to fertilize them high in potassium to induce flowers and fruits. Don't put this type of fertilizer if your plant only about 3 months and below.
11. Harvesting
If the fruits is full of ripen you can harvest it. Enjoy your dragon fruit meal from your backyard.

Thanks for dropping in... appreciated. You can buy garden fence and gates for making trellis for your dragon fruit. It easy to find in hardware shop. You can use also concrete as trellis and more cheap you can use PVC pipe too.. Have a nice day.

Is it necessary to use concrete pillar or pvc pipe?? Can we use wood pillar?

[@CarlzJafran]

No... It depends. You can use any pillar that is available in your area.

[@elyserva7903]

Dragon fruit is a millennial plant and can last up to 50 years. Using concrete or PVC is better as they can last longer than wood. Wood will rot in a few years.

[@Mosas_world]

Why you used rice husk?

[@CarlzJafran]

Rice husk provide a dense source of carbon which, when composted, can increase the water and nutrient holding capacity of soil, improve soil aggregation, porosity, infiltration, and many other key beneficial soil physical characteristics.

[@hyunelynn5729]

lepas harvest pandai berbuah balik ka tu pokok?

Lepas harvest. Tunas baru akan tumbuh, membesar dan matang. The next season buah akan muncul pada tunas tersebut utk tuaian berikutnya. Kadang2 batang yang dah pernah berbuah akan berbuah semula jika cukup penjagaan.

Klw cukup jaga berapa thun bru brbuah?
