Can you do winterizing strawberries next 😉
Lol dragon daddy also do you think you can freeze dry dragon fruit I'm curious
Please reply, I need some info. 🙂
My dragon cactus is sprouting a strange limb. (Not an air root)
Begging for a sour patch cutting I’m willing to pay $15 for a short cutting
Ok but all these late fall business pluck this don’t do that doesn’t even matter in south Florida? Am I wrong? Seasons don’t really exist here heat and sun wise
Thank you
Please, please can you do a vid on mung beans. Just anything. I’ve been growing them for 4 years for school projects and stuff and haven’t succeeded once.
Epic Gardener..help..i found a very large Grub worm in my raised garden bed….does this mean i have more and will they ruin my crops??
Lucky you live in such a temperate zone. Most areas in America couid never grow dragonfruit
Ouh thank you for the great ideas on planting dragon fruit thru big Pot
My dragon fruit doesn’t seem to be growing and looks like it’s not doing to well. Are there ways I can help nourish it back to health?
Hey Kevin, I’m in San Diego and I got blooms everyday this last week. Will these flowers take if fertilized properly or will the fruit be lost as we approach winter?
Thanks “Dragon Daddy” AKA Kevin! Just started my first planting of American Beauty Dragon Fruit from Lucky and needed this info going into fall.
LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!
AWESOME GROWING!!!
MY DREAM GROW !!
Great tips, I do notice stems that look like they will grow out the wrong direction so I need to clip those off.
Hey Kevin, I know this is off topic but I've thought about putting together a "bugout bag" and considered putting some seeds in it incase of a long term situation. If you had to have 5 to 10 seeds to help you live off the land what would they be?
Do you recommend “hardening off” or acclimating your outdoor plants to the being indoors for the winter?
In what part of the United States are you? I am in Northwest Arkansas, I was born in Colombia South America and we call them pitayas. I missed most of the fruits we have there, I would like to grow one actually the yellow one

dragonfruit in chinese (火龍果) means, if translated literally, fire dragon fruit.

Glad I found this video. I’m out in AZ and just picked up a Dragon. Lots of great tips here and it seems I can treat this almost like my plumeria.
Hello from Turkey! Your videos are inspiring. What do you think our sequential planting of seedlings?

I got some cuttings today and I’m totally new to this! Should I keep them inside during fall/winter ?
Any tips on what to do with the cuttings ?
I live in San Antonio
I have a 4. – 5 yr mature dragon fruit plant and it wrapped around my lemon tree it did fruit before i planted on the ground at one point it’s been 2 yrs now haven’t got no fruit .. is there something wrong that I’m doing
Hey Kevin, I heard that the cactus that you can buy in stores labeled as moon cactus can be degraded to get the root stock which is apparently a dragon fruit cactus, can you try that? I’m very curious
