    Very nice collection of dragon fruit! I have that keyboard vaccuum and wow is it a gamechanger! I've checked all your videos and can't find any information on the black tubing / hose that you have attached to the tomato cage. Is it a garden hose or irrigation tubing? I've been using the tomato cage, reinforced with the steel pipes, and PVC pipe. I attached the 4 pvc pipe sections with rubberized wire, that I get at Home Depot.
    Unfortunately, my dragon fruit plants got too large (and unbalanced) and all ended up falling over! My solution has been to start all over and try cutting the branches on the 3rd ring, NOT the top ring! This appears to be a great solution, as my demo has not tipped over! My son came over and noticed the solution has really worked out! From now on, all my future plantings will be cut above the 3rd ring of the tomato cage.

      Yes but make sure your pollen isn’t wet or else it can be bad. Collecting pollen and storing them saves space and it’s more prefer method than just throwing the entire flower in the fridge.

    Glad you mention about mixing pollen. Very informative video. I never know what pollen to use. I’ve also had a flower where the stigma was closed. I opened it but the hole wasn’t there it was tight. What would you do? The flower didn’t take and aborted. But I also may have used the wrong pollen. Thanks

    • @tristardragonfruit
      @tristardragonfruit  7 місяців тому

      Yes, it's better to mix when you don't have any motivate to create your own hybrid. Higher chance for the flower to turn fruit.

Unfortunately, i didn’t get any pollen from other members when I asked so that I can cross pollinate my Bruni so all of them aborted. Can you please spare me if you have extra pollens so I can pollinate my upcoming flowers. I can PM you my address if it’s ok.
