In this video, I went to Ventura County to meet up with Alik Shulman to take a tour of his dragon fruit farm named Shulman Dragon Fruit Orchard. He was so kind to take me around his dragon fruit orchard and also his gardens at home, where he also grew dragon fruits alongside his farm. We harvested all the dragon fruits that were available and it was so cool to see his operation and chatting it up with him. Found out he offers free tours for the public as well.

Thank you Richard for sharing Alik's orchard with us. I have received many varieties from Alik in the Rio Grande Valley, South Texas, where I lost all my collection to a severe cold front. I potted and rooted everyone of his cutting and now are over 6-7 feet tall and growing like weeds. Again Thank you Richard and Alik for all of the information you share with us all.

What's the pros and cons of letting them grow wild like Alik vs heavy pruning into a shape of an umbrella? Will letting them grow wild produce more fruit? Is Alik letting them grow wild to sell the cuttings?

@NatureWithAlik Месяц назад

I wish I could have more helpers. Volunteers are coming. This is my full time job now. I give away cuttings to my local community and adding to the orders as a gift. Definitely needs trimming to propagate. I have 700 cuttings in the green house and will replace them soon with a new one.

I think that these are the healthiest looking dragon fruit plants I’ve ever seen. It didn’t seem like there were any blemishes or diseased stems at all. What’s the secret? Is it his particular climate, soil mix, feeding schedule, etc.?

It’s the same on farms as they are sold by the lb. Biggest reason because it takes a lot of work to grow them and there’s not a huge mass amount yet

@zacharyheinrichs132 Месяц назад

I have a question. I just received my first sugar dragon cutting from a shop on Etsy from Florida. I live in California so it took about a week and a half to get to me. When I got it it’s still quite green but very very thin almost as if it’s completely dried up, the fins are not even 1/8th thick. Just wondering if it’s too far gone and if there’s still hope. Thanks!

@NatureWithAlik Месяц назад

Upload the picture and variety name. Try to root it first in water at home.

@bethb8276 Месяц назад

Dragonfruit can go a pretty long time without water. While they like water more often than regular cactus, it's still a cactus. A week and a half isn't that long. Just don't stick it out in full sun right away. Part shade, baby it a bit.

@SouthTexasDragonFruit Месяц назад

Like Alik and Beth said, try to keep it in water and in a cool place it should do well. Good luck.

@zacharyheinrichs132 Месяц назад

@@NatureWithAlik finally was able to upload a picture, I had to wait for RU-vid to verify me. When you say soak in water do you mean keep the soil moist or completely submerge the cutting?

@45valk Месяц назад

I have a question, why is the ends of my dragon fruit branches turning white? They’re still plump and healthy looking but turning white. Any help would be appreciated.

@ritaalaga1 13 дней назад

Hi Ricard, i am very new for dragon fruit. Just fell in love. Living at UK not weather for them there. But i am mad enough to try them to grow from seeds what i took from superstore fruit. First attempt was died because if cold. But i tested yellow variety and oh, i must have them. I did try many tit until they sprouted. Now i having small little once. I do want them to grow for cuttings and take them to Africa where us weather much better for them. Do its ok to growe them as they go and then cut from mother plant for cuttings. Just much easier to pack them for transfer.

@monicakotah8717 Месяц назад

@zenaidapatubo292 Месяц назад

@NatureWithAlik Месяц назад

100%, will trim for the new cutting to grow. I have 700 in green house to replace now.

@carlottawalker6185 Месяц назад

I have a question. If these dragon fruit flower only at night, how does someone who has a farm pollinate their plants since we know that pollinators dont come out at night.

@robkeller3431 Месяц назад

How often do you water?

@NatureWithAlik Месяц назад

Once a week 1/2 gal per plant when hot over 85. Use mulch and umbrellas to cool them down and keep moisture.

@GraftingDragonFruit Месяц назад

It just depends on the soil and weather.

They prefer sandy, very well draining soil. How cold does it get in winter where you are? It's a tropical plant.

You can definitely plant them as long as you're able to maintain the soil and conditions to what they require
