First of all thank you guys for all of your help. I do have one more question, I was looking at Hormex rooting hormone for my cuttings and I can't figure out...

I don't use rooting hormone for pitahaya, as Leo said, it usually roots very easy without it. If you have a bunch of cuttings to root, try the hormone on a few...
Leo writes: Pitaya cuttings root so easily without rooting hormone that I have never used it. Sainarong comments: Leo is correct. However, under certain...
Leo is correct. Succulents usually do not need rooting hormone at all. The ranges you mention are starting for hard woody plants at the 3% high end down to...
I have never used a rooting hormone on my dragon fruit cuttings. Manny, from sunny San Diego ______________________________ From: Garret <rrgdecals@...> ...
Guys If we drop a pitaya cutting with a piece of the end touching/in the soil/moisture - it will induce rooting. That's how well the survival gene of the...
Hi. With my little experience, I would say it all depends on how fast you need your roots. As Leo and others say it may not require homones if you are not in...
My problem is the opposite, namely, late flowering. I would like to have early flowering because early fruits fetch much higher price. At present, the only...
Hi Judy, I am not a Pitaya expert so this confuses me. Temperature is not a primary flowering signal for Pitaya. Lengthening days are the main signal. I am at...
Garret, Since you are preparing to grow pitaya from cuttings, heres a more important factor for success. Instead of dipping the cut end in rooting hormone, you...
I, Sainarong, am going to open an account on Facebook called PitayaFruit soon. Why? To make use of the latest (I know that Facebook is many years old, but it...
Bravo, David! You have a curious, logical mind. You must be an engineer. I eagerly awaits the result of your experiment. Sainarong PS The first time I read...
There are "pros & cons" to Facebook AND Yahoo Groups. With BOTH you can get SPAM messages. The big advantage of having a Pitaya Fruit Facebook account would...
Like! Like! Like! I have an FB account since 2008. On my profile, lots of photos of most of my Pitaya's and plants in my garden. It's the PLACE right now to...
You could create a closed group that the public can see but not post. Then you allow each person to join and hopefully nobody posts spam. With facebook you can...
Thank you Sainarong for your kind words. Indeed I am an engineer, who often simplifies things too much but if lucky sometimes get interesting results from...
Cool Fang! Hey, you are on computers, you can easily handle this one on your break time at UCSD! I will assist but you have to train me! BTW:The Synsepalum...
If Sainarong does not start a Facebook Group, I could start one, but you need "pictures" and "comments" from people to make it successful. If I started one I...
Yes, create a pitahaya FB account, I'll join/like. Rob Garden Grove, CA ps: I'm happy my miracle fruit plant is still alive too; it's even getting new leaves,...
I hand over the task to you, Richard. Willingly and happily. I am sure you will do a much better job than I can. I will be one of your first member/friend. ...
Whoever creates the FB group please mention this mailing list in the description of the group. I think it would be more active if it is somehow related to this...
I am active in a fairly wide variety of discussion groups, forums, and an active Facebook user. I think having a Facebook group can be useful, especially if...
I would like to help but if you open an acct on facebook who are the ones to be put as the admins because they will be the one to accept and answer emails. As...
I agree with Harvey about "forums". Here is an example of a Dragon Fruit forum that is underutilized; <http://www.mattslandscape.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=7> ...
Harvey et al, I think forums are more work to keep up on, as you have to go check to see what's been happening, whereas the yahoo group (I have it set to daily...
Is there a place in Orange county anyone knows of that has this plant? Can it be grown from seeds, cuttings? Looks like it would be fun to try. Patti...
