Annonce:

Watering:

Water the cutting lightly after planting to settle the soil. Afterward, water sparingly, keeping the soil consistently slightly moist but not waterlogged. Overwatering can lead to rot.

Sunlight:

Place the pot in a sunny location where it can receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. If you don’t have access to sufficient sunlight, consider using a grow light.

Temperature and Humidity:

Dragon fruit prefers warm temperatures and can be sensitive to cold. Ensure the temperature remains above 50°F (10°C) during the growing season. Provide protection or move it indoors if temperatures drop significantly.

Fertilizing:

Apply a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer with a formulation like 10-10-10 every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring through summer). Follow the package instructions for proper dilution.
