  • Removing Dragon Fruit Flower helps your fruit stay fungal and pest free. This helps with limiting humidity on your Dragon Fruit to prevent it from having any rot that may happen. Especially, if it starts to rain then moisture will be trapped inside which can later cause your fruit to have issues. It also prevents bugs from eating from the inside out and when removing the flower you can see exactly what’s going on. Check out this video to see WHEN and HOW I remove the Dragon Fruit Flower!

    Hi Richard
    Thank you for your very informative videos. I just learned that my “night blooming cactus” is really a dragon fruit plant about two months ago. I have been enjoying the plant for 10 years! I have quite a few that grow in my yard. After learning about dragon fruit from your videos we pollinated several flowers and had one fruit. It was delicious. Then we pollinated 27 flowers in the next bloom. None grew into fruit. Then I saw the video where you removed the flower and then the stigma. I just pollinated 5 tonight. Will try and follow your instructions over the next week or so.
    Do you think that because the flowers and stigma were not removed was the reason we had no fruit? I live in Florida.
    Thank you for any insight you may have.

    Hi. I didn’t know about pulling the flower off. Thank you for showing how that is done. Your video’s are very helpful. Thanks! Question, if you don’t mind. … I live in Central Florida and have a Haley’s Comet Dragonfruit. It gets mostly sun and is well drained. I had 5 blooms this year and hand pollinated all of them. (One on one night, and other 4 the night after) on the night I had 4, I used all 4 to pollinate each other. Few days later, seemed like they took. They were firm. On the 5 th day, I could see the color separation and was able to pull the bloom off like you showed. But a day or so later, they turned yellow. 3 fell off the next day. The other 2 have some pink, but also kind of yellow. What did I do wrong? (Going to send this your dragonfruit friend as well, please don’t be offended. I’ve learned from both of you, lol)

    6 nights ago my dragonfruit flowered so I went and collected some pollen because I new that I had about 14 flowers going to be ready at the same time.
    So today being day 6 I thought I should remove the flowers off the fruit
    Townsville has had constant rain now for 4 days now and the flowers are very mushy and hard to remove so what should I do as I’ve had my dragon fruit plants now four 4 years and they have never produced fruit so I started following you for guidance and this year is the first time I have followed your instructions

Would you be able to tell me what i am doing wrong on the dragon fruit flowers, When i am to pollinate the flowers ,some that are supposed to be opened will not open at all ,cause the tips of the flower are stuck like glue ,Could this be from lack of watering.or from the ants that are on these flowers at earlier buding stage,Please help me if you know the cause, God bless you .

    • @GraftingDragonFruit
      @GraftingDragonFruit  5 років тому +2

      Hi James Billy, what variety of Dragon Fruit are you having this happening to you? Some varieties take long to bloom than others. Also, are you adding any type of fertilizer to encourage strength to help with blooming? These factors will help me identify what is happening. I never heard of a sterile flower and they tend to always open. It might just be a late bloomer. Keep me updated and I’ll try to help you figure this out. We want them to bloom!

    My dragon fruit plants gave me about 10 flowers about 4 days ago. I pollinated them at night. But the flowers became yellow and withering away. Could it be over watering?

    Hi there,
    I'm new to your channel. I'm from Brazil. Im growing dragon fruits, but the way I learned is a little different from what I could see in your plant. So can you tell me why do you do that way?
    I noticed that your plant is not growing from a single trunk, then on the top it spreads. Yours is spreaded from the bottom. Why is that?
    By the way, it looks very beautiful and healthy!!
