| I live in Fayetteville, NC and I've been trying to grow Dragon Fruit from the seed for over two years now and have barely found any info online that would help someone like me who lives in my region. I've grown Carolina Reaper Peppers, Roses, Mints, Tomatoes, pretty much the whole nine yards around here with no issue and I even have a a ton of prickly pear cacti that I've grown and they bloom fruit every year. But I was wondering if anyone could give me any tips on DF. I know they can't withstand the cold, they don't like a lot of water, I grow mine in a burpee self watering tray which has a greenhouse lid for it and now for the first time im using a grow light as well to hopefully increase my chances. I'd really like to grow these in NC and basically have a monopoly on it in my area lol. Any tips would be nice. |

| Found one discussion over on the Tropicals forum here that confirms what I suspected - normally grown from rooted cuttings. But since I have no personal experience with them I Googled "how to germinate pitaya seeds" and found lots of resources - including videos. Linked below. Usually it is much easier to find info with the botanical name than any of the generic names. Hope this helps. Dave |
