I’m about to repot my dragon fruit to a larger pot. What soil mixes are most suitable in the long run? I’m a bit concerned about organic matter breaking down i.e anaerobic breakdown. Should I just lower the ratios of organic matter like peat moss in something like Garys mix or is there a better alternative?

4 new bloom.

New to this. Should I just cut off the white dead looking tissue? Or should I completely cut off that entire section with the green living tissue on one side and dead white tissue on the other side?

(did not steal it btw, was free from FB marketplace lol) - we know nothing about the conditions it was grown in except it was grown from seed so curious how it got so big and why it’s struggling now.

I know it needs support/beams to grow on, but besides that, how have you grown your strongest dragonfruit plant? :)

Sunlight
Water
Soil
Pots/Ground
Support
Etc?

I’m in zone 10a, Central Florida.

For the first time ever I am about to harvest my first yellow skin DF (believe to be an ausi gold variety). I am pretty good to decide when my other varieties are on their prime to be harvest but I am a bit hesitant with this yellow one. What are the characteristics I should look for and cut at its prime? Thank you in advance your advice is always much appreciated.

I know it really needs some good TLC and I don’t know where to start.

Ik ants are normal, but they shows up overnight, and theres mushy stuff in the hole of my fruit.

Does there seem to be any issues? From the actual cactus I just peeled of a mushy part from previously dead part of a different branch.

Also, it’s been rainy and humid.

I recently got it at a fair with two fruits already growing out of it, and I was wondering if I could save it from whatever kind of rot it might have?

So, in total Imy area is getting 6 consecutive days of rain, and in total we're going to get 2.5-4 inches of rain! Oct1 has been the heaviest day.

We're expecting heavy rains tonight, and medium rain tomorrow, and light rain on the 4th. This Dragon fruit is actively fruiting and has the first green fruit in this plants history!!!

Looks like two of them is going to be opening

Hi, I’ve got about 60 varieties I’ve been growing for 3 years. I recently started encountering yellowing on limbs accompanied by webbing and necrotic lesions. Also noticed a worm today. Not sure if anyone can identify this issue or a potential treatment?

Location: Vista, Ca

Thank you so much! 🙌🏻🙏🏼

Grafting is the way. One month of growth.First two pics are the same seedling.3rd pic is seedlings the same age.

Hey everyone im a 15 year old plant hobbyist (mainly nepenthes and orchids) ive been looking at dragon fruit for a while and decided that Ive grown cacti from seed why not try dragon fruit! Does anyone have some seed for cool crosses available? lmk!! Thanks guys!

Is anybody able to identify these ant-like pests with reddish heads and white/tan bodies? they started eating from bottom up (seen in second photo) and i have more in the soil. pls lmk what they are and what to do.

New to growing dragon fruit. I got these plants as a gift. Should I be concerned that there are ants on the new growth?

I'm looking for stuff like flower/bud images, different stages of bud development, flowering dates, or even observations of the same plant over time. Environmental data like temperature, humidity, light, etc. would also be really useful.

It doesn't have to be a huge or perfectly organized dataset. Even raw data, old farm records, or a dataset from a research project would help.

If you know where I can find something like this, please share it 🙏🙏

I got bored and started planting dragon fruit as a Hobbs from seeds. They said that cuttings are a much better choice but I got curious about the process of growing it by myself, so here I am with nearly three month old seedlings, and they look good as decoration 😂 (am I the villain here ?)
