Red Jaina Dragon Fruit Harvest and Taste Review

[@robertwnuck3625]

I'm totally into Dragon Fruit and after 3 years I got my first fruits. No idea what type. Red Skin and Pink fruit. Enjoy your content and lessons. Thanks big time. I live in north county San Diego, Vista

[@lobo0354]

Having grown up around home gardens and fruit trees all my life I’ve realized that when the fruit starts bursting open it is when it is at it’s juiciest and best tasting.

[@joannadiep7045]

Wow. It looks so beautiful and tasty too. Thanks for sharing.

[@doodahgurlie]

Such a great, detailed, and thorough video, Richard. I love that you try to do various tests to get an idea of what the dragon fruit tastes like. Love the deep red color on the flesh!

[@andrewr681]

I just brought 3 cuttings, watched your other video about how to plant them, great info, and now I'm even more excited to grow mine since you explained how to grow and the tasting so well, thank you.

[@phamvh1]

Where did you bought your cutting from if I may ask? Planning to grow them too. Thanks

[@lucasan2601]

Excelente! Esta hermosa la penca (esqueje) , la fruta su color rojo brillante por fuera y ese rojo o guinda intenso por dentro!! Y por lo que expresas en su sabor... uy un manjar!.

Hello Richard,,Watching you from ,,Philippines,,God Bless You.

[@BeIlG]

literally the 1k like! woohoo! great video and very helpful!

[@yongmcdonald1317]

Hello. I've been started watching it your video about 3~4 days now it is a wow 👏!! Awesome to watching it! But I want some of the dragon fruits because you make me drilling watered my mouth!!! Thanks for all your dragon fruits video! Love to watching it.

[@tjnguyen746]

That great! Thanks for information. Wish you will always successful ...

[@Weifengast]

Could buy some pollens from you? This year my dragon fruit was the first year having the flower buds. I did hand pollinate and failed on fruiting. It made me wonder my dragon fruit is needed to cross pollinate. All my dragon fruit plant knowledge learned from your videos. Thank you for teaching us on dragon fruits!

[@LanNguyen-wy4un]

Beautiful. Excellent video, Richard.

[@terrybowles5756]

Very nice i an just tasted dragon fruit For the first time 7 days a go i love the yellow one the red skin white was so so i would like to grow some

[@yaqeen4940]

I have 2 types of red dragon fruit, one is big and weighs 550 g and the other weighs about 300 g. The one that is heavy has to be hand pollinate but the smaller one is self pollinate. The inside of the big one has the same color as red jaina. But still, I love the taste of the Ecaudor ones.

[@spacecollectibles]

Awesome video! That dragon fruit variety is on my bucket list. Have you ever considered selling some of your variety cuttings? SpicyExotics is sold out, and I only have Purple Haze at the moment so I want to grow more varieties. Let me know if that's something you would consider (:

[@micheleharley9887]

Just discovered your videos, where can I purchase plants to grow in Florida? Thank you for so much great information.

[@heangngow2310]

Richard I have a question on dragon fruit I have a red flush and a pink flush is that self pollinate That would be awesome if you get the answer for me I love all your video it's awesome

[@ikreate4u]

I'm excited watching this. I've struggled with my red Dragonfruit for 4 years. I bought it from a nursery. Never a flower. Only skinny straggly limbs that insist on growing upward no matter how I try to get them to drape even when I prune. Help! Any suggestions?

[@UserOne371]

ikreate 4u Your dragon fruit plant could be making skinny limbs and not making fruit due to it being a plant started from seed. Dragon fruits started from seed need about 6 years to fruit while cuttings can fruit as quick as 1 to 2 years and grow much faster. Also whether your plant is from seed or cutting a lack of water sunlight or nutrients can cause them to grow skinny branches. After you water it scratch the soil and if it’s still dry underneath keep watering, sometimes when the soil gets dry it can look like you’re watering it well on top but the water is actually not penetrating into the root area due to how dry the soil is. Also if all else fails you can buy mature cuttings on eBay or Etsy for reasonable prices, I’ve had great success with those, they grow very fast and pick up where the mature plant left off. Also as far as pruning I just chop off the top of mine when they get too tall and carefully train the new branches to droop down. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Nice Richard, any recommendations on where to pick up a red jaina cutting?

[@jaredf.6532]

I got mine on etsy except I managed to buy the last one in stock

[@jaredf.6532]

@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT spices exotics is pretty good from what I hear. Just my only problem with them is they were out of stock for the dragon fruit cuttings aside from 3 white flesh varieties which were not the ones I wanted. I did look at them for 2 months if they restocked but I guess they only do it during certain times of the year when new crunches grow on the dragon fruit. Except I was somewhat impatient and wanted to get mine soon as possible. So thats why I got mine from Etsy.

[@dr.rgsamy4876]

Amazing vdos bro ..Red gena is catchy.. How do I get these plants plz .

[@chavachiva8]

Richard I read that Bien Hoa Red was considered the same as American Beauty. Could you use the Bien Hoa Red to pollinate Red Jaina?

[@jaredf.6532]

Yeah that's possible. Red Jaina is a self sterile dragon fruit. So you need to cross pollinate it from another variety of dragon fruit, so that would work too

[@chavachiva8]

@@jaredf.6532 thanks for the information.

[@burning4rmwithin]

My physical graffiti is finally flowering after 3 years... hopefully it'll fruit. Do red varities usually take longer to fruit? My vietnamese white fruited within a year.

I have a question for you. The leaves of the dragon fruit kind of resemble aloe vera leaves. Have you found out if the leaves contain something (gel maybe) that may be useful in something? (medicinal?)

If the branch turn yellowish that mean you over water. Also when you have buds or flowers waters less, so the flowers won't turn yellow and fall off

@@emmacarpio7528 the one I got was ok. It was maybe about a foot tall that looked in poor shaped, however it is the one growing the best out of all the other 3 cuttings I bought. It has a new branch growing rn at the moment thats maybe about 2 months old. I do suggest Spicey Exotics to get your cuttings there. They have a huge selection of them and they are expensive to me although I've read the reviews they give you big or long cuttings. My only problem is when I looked at their stock. They were out of stock for a majority of the stuff from 2 months looking at them. So my guess is they only restock during certain times of the year when new branches grow. That is why I got mine from Etsy. I was being impatient and wanted to get mine soon. However if Richard does manage to respond. Then that's pretty good!
