  • In this video, Spicy Exotics shows the results of how we achieved larger fruits from our Dragon's. We tested for four months on all four flesh types and we found the same results. PM pollinations yield larger fruit compared to AM pollination. In our test, we used only fresh pollen.

    Nice information! I’ve had success pollinating flowers around 7PM and forcing them open with my hand. The fruit are nice and large... Fresh pollen is key too. Do you make a mixed bowl of pollen when you cross pollinate your varieties?

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 3 lety +5

      Correct. I usually start with a self-fertile type then work my way around.

  • @howtogrowdragonfruitplant7849

    This is a very interesting development. I guess it could still be "luck" but I think you are correct !

    Wow ..so much to learn with dragon fruit ...so you recommend hand pollination for better results even though the plan is self pollinating

    I like the idea! Do you know when you guys will be selling cutting again on your website?

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 3 lety +1

      We had to close shop this year for the month of October to recover from Hurricane Delta and begin winter prepping our Dragon's. We will reopen next month, that's just a few weeks away.

    What kind of fertilizer do you use? Thamks

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 3 lety

      We use 100% composted manure as our soil base. No additional additives.

  • @qugnf5j
    @qugnf5j Před 3 lety

    Thanks for sharing this great info! Have you tried polinating a flower even when it has not open yet by sticking the brush into the close flower? Do you think it’s a bad idea?

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 3 lety +1

      We have and we do not think it's a bad idea. Some varieties and the time of your will be better with that process compared to others.

      We sell yearly. We had to close shop this year for the month of October to recover from Hurricane Delta and begin winter prepping our Dragon's. We will reopen next month, that's just a few weeks away.

    How far are your pots apart from stem to stem, do you find any problems with the branches touching? Thanks

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 3 lety +2

      They are inches away or sometimes even touch. No problems after growing this way for over 10 years.

    How do you pollinate? Can you share some tips?

    Sera que da para implantar este sistema em cima de uma lage

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 2 lety +1

      Depending on your climate...The ground "concrete" may create to much radiate heat for the soil/roots. If it's required, add space or some sort of insulator between the pot and ground.

    What time do you usually pollinate you’re Ohana Express? Can this finding help to improve the fruit size you have gotten? 🤔

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 3 lety +4

      Usually between 10PM and 11PM and yes, the fruit is one third to half a size larger. The fact that our mother plant is at ideal maturity time is also helping with the size fruit.

    Hey just wanted to let you know your website is acting up not sure what’s going on with it but when you click on a variety all the words are overlapping and jumbled together

    • @Spicyexotics

      We have been doing live updates and this brought on several issues but all is good now. Let us know if you have any other issues.

      We are doing some live updates on the website and one of the updates did not go over so well. Everything should be resolved now. Thanks for posting.

    Do you have any species that bud around April ?may? Or early June? I have three species currently Haley's comet, David Bowie, and natural mystic.
    I usually miss the first two flowering on the Halley's comet as I have nothing to cross pollinate it with until mid June when the natural mystic opens followed shortly by David Bowie.
    I love the Halley's comet when I hand pollinate every single one takes, it's by far the heaviest producer so far. Would really love to cross pollinate for the first two flowering.. unfortunately since I purchased Haley's comet it recently came out 4years ago that it is so sterile .

    Are there any books you suggest for growing etc etc

    • @Spicyexotics
      @Spicyexotics  Před 3 lety

      No books cover a variety of names. You can find a few books that cover the different species. Research papers cover different varieties and they are available for free, just search on the web.
