5. Planting the Seeds
- Planting Depth: Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep.
- Spacing: Space the seeds about 2 to 3 inches apart.
- Watering: Moisten the soil with water, but ensure it’s not drenched.
6. Germination
- Temperature: Dragon fruit seeds germinate best at temperatures between 70 to 85°F (21 to 29°C).
- Location: Place the pot in a warm, sunny location. If you’re growing them indoors, a sunny windowsill or under grow lights are ideal.
7. Caring for Your Dragon Fruit Plant
- Watering: Water when the top inch of the soil feels dry. Dragon fruit plants are drought-resistant, so be careful not to over-water.
- Feeding: Once your plants are established (after 5-6 months), feed them with a balanced fertilizer every month during the growing season.
- Support: As your plant grows, it will need support. Install a trellis or stake to help support your dragon fruit plant.
