Chemicals to control your plant??? Let me guesse yawl live in California?
Peroxide basically a one-to-one level with bacteria as well as baking soda and maybe glycerin as well as a few other things it would be essentially like you standing next to baking soda that was as tall as you you had some water and there was going to be enough reaction to affect you same thing for the elephant the giraffe and the microbial life
I want dragon fruits but in finland no have
I just discovered that the two little cactus that are growing…are Dragon Fruit! Perfect timing to prevent me from killing them!! My problem will be I'm in Southern Ohio so it looks like I'll have to have a mobile pot I can move them inside during winter.
How old is the plant you're working on? How long before you get fruit?
Nice
Why do you only grow your dragon fruit in pots?
I have a similar pot setup but was hoping to transfer it into the ground in my backyard.
What was the hydrogen peroxide mix recipe?
Very nice video about how to deal with dragon fruit plants but I am not agree about mistake no 2, Generally speaking dragon fruit is a tropical plants that mean they can survive even though in heavy rain. Yes that true dragon fruit is cactus family but this types of cactus grow well in heavy rain countries. Seem that your soil is more drainage and porous so no problem if you water more. Unlike in tropical climate countries. Especially in the Western countries, summer season are very very hot (I think?). So watering more for your dragon fruit is recommended.
By the way I love watching your video.
