when you crop the top do you remove it from direct sun to avoid issues with it healing after the cut?

What do you do with branches that are already hanging down low from the top of the trellis, and they start to curl, or those branches that start to grow these little small segments of branches?

Hi, I have planted two cuttings with roots. Both started growing really good initially but now both new sprouts are not growing well. One new branch is quite slim as compare to main trunk, other is fine and thick but have stopped growing further after 8 inches. Now the thinner branch growing but not a single new sprout is coming out. Height of the plants is almost 2.5 feet. Need your help. Please

Will skinny growth from light deficiency become thick and normal once you bring it out to the sun? Or should I remove the skinny growth and start over??

Once they get the right nutrients and sunlight, they can get thicker. Also tipping the branches when they’re ready will help as well

Hi Richard, do slugs attack your dragon fruit plants? What do you use to keep slugs off your plants? I have a few dragon fruits, but each time new growth comes up they get eaten by slugs. Thanks
@GraftingDragonFruit5 ай бұрын
Yes I get them from time to time. I just stay vigilant and get rid of them when I see them. Also allowing spiders to live on the plants have help. You can probably find some slug preventative products in your garden supply store to help

Omg bro. Im in loovee with dragon fruit.. Ive been studying it for so long Ive looked into dragon fruit topics I wont even ever need and have tried to grow my own. The local climate here in the Czech republic isnt ideal but the summers sure are hot so my plan is to take it out when its hot and keep it indoors when its autumn winter and such. But thats where the problem comes in its been 3 weeks and I dont see a single sign of germination. Ive devided them into two groups, one on a wet piece of towel the other in soil but neither has grown. The seeds were told to me to be 2 years old and Im hoping that 20 seeds is enough for me to grow it keeping in mind how old the seeds are. I am stressed bro I know the germination process can take up to 8 weeks but how do I know that that wait is going to result in it? Please send psychological help or a rope

@ArtfulGardener5 ай бұрын
Im not Richard but I have seen many videos and in many videos he tells you that if it is self sterile it’s flower falls of if you pollinate it’s flower with its pollen. So it depends on whether or not it is self fertile or self sterile variety if if is a self fertile variety and it’s doing that then Richard would know. If it is a self sterile and pollinated with different pollen maybe it rejects the pollen? I don’t know for sure but Richard would know what the problem it is. Hopefully the problem will be fixed in the future.
