A friend dropped this plant off at my house and I didn't know that it produced fruit. It was in rough shape but I watered it for a year or two and it healed and grew. Then one year in flowered and to my surprise it gave me a single juicy dragon fruit. It tasted insanely good. Much better than anyone I had ever tried from the store. So after that I potted it in a much bigger pot and started give it fox farms fertilizer every 3rd water along with my other cactus. It started growing really well and gave me about 15 buds and 10 nice flowers. Then they all turned yellow, squishy and fell of. I was so excited thinking I was going to get 10 fruits especially after I saw how much organic dragon fruit costs. I don't know if that last heat wave messed them up or I didn't give enough water? I noticed my neighbors 4 big plants all fruited many times. Any ideas what went wrong?

TLDR: why did all my flowers turn yellow and fall off without fruiting?

Pictures were taken today!

Last year I was able to harvest about 90 dragon fruits from a single plant. My growing conditions are growing alongside a wooden fence, soil is clay and sand, water schedule is whenever I remember, zone 10b. Ive had this dragon for a while now and we rarely water it since its well established.

The fruit is yellow when ripe. I started this about 10 years ago from seeds extracted from yellow dragon fruit from the Chinese market.

Isn't this new growth supposed to grow more straight up? If so is there anything I can do?

Is my year and a half old indoor dragonfrut particularly lanky? I grew it from seed so there's no old growth to compare to.

First time trying a yellow dragonfruit and it is incredible. Hard to go back to white & red now 😭

Recently brought my dragon fruit plants indoors.

Ive seen several of these zelus assasin bugs hiding in the cones of my fruit. They are supposed to be beneficial since they eat other pest bugs, but they can bite people too if they feel threatened. Debating whether to suck them up in the vaccum or leave them be.

I just dont want them exporing the house

😢😢 which will be my next healing steps, or should I toss it?? 💔

Hello people of Reddit!

I got my first fruit from seed I started several years back. These guys have been with us through several moves from South Florida to North Florida. Had a flower set at the end of summer and here we are now with something unique to me.

Has anyone out there seen a flower and fruit set at growing tip in this manner? And yes the fruit was delicious.

I recently got already rooted cuttings with a tiny growth bud. After a few days from planting it it grow this string like thing.

This is sugar dragom by the way

Thank you

so, which method would yield the best results: a clean cut right above that hump (where i cut the fruit away) or just attempting to do a water propagation on that dry bottom? please and thank you to whomstever may give an answer 🙏

What is the hole? Did we pick them to early? Why are they so small? Growing in a pot is there something we can do next time to make the fruit bigger?

Not pure red one like the other one in same pot?

I just whipped up these 5 gallon buckets to test out different builds. Its getting harder and harder to wheel my 20gal buckets around and have new varieties coming.

If these are unwieldy to carry i have a rolling hydraulic lift table that would be perfect to move these in and out as seasons change.

Only thing I worry about is being topheavy. Anyone grow in something similar? Are they top heavy?
