    We dont tend to have products that you use on your side of world so for those that dont have the root powder either: when propagating cuttings in water, once roots are established. I just start adding a little soil each day over about a week to the water. I find this helps to acclimate from full water to soil.

    I have had no problem growing red and white flesh dragon fruit from seed, but I have not had a single germination of yellow seeds. Irregardless of the method I try. The only difference being the gel encapsulated seeds typical of the yellow dragon fruit. I found a yellow with a good stem and am attempting to root it as in this video.
    Thank you for the tips. Hope it works.
    Thank you

      Depending on where in the States you live, the climate may not be suitable for dragon fruit, so keep that in mind. Even if the temperature is great, the humidity might not be enough. Take care, and consider a greenhouse.

    You can add a small amount of the hydrogen peroxide right in the shot cup of water. The oxygen will help them root and you won't have to switch the water out as often too.

My son and I want to grow ANY dragon fruit so that we can taste a ripe one.

    I had literally just done my first graft with store bought fruit using your other video and this video just pops up. I wasn’t confident of grafting so would have tried this rooting method instead. Now i gotta go see if i can find another fruit with stem to try rooting. But, but why not just root in soil like normal cutting? Why in water? Thanks for sharing.

      Growing from seeds, does take quite some time. I began growing my plants nearly 2 yrs ago, without a greenhouse. Just growing them indoors. They are about 10-20 inches long. Lots of white soft spikes, and quite a few black hard spikes. Can I ask, what do I do about the side growths?
      Out of Nowhere, a few of them grew side sprouts (overnight), and are about 1-3inches long.
