I saw this dragonfruit at the Asian supermarket and thought I'd try growing some from seed like I saw on YouTube. Thus commences The Pitaya (Dragonfruit) Experiment.
On the left is the dragonfruit. Middle picture is sliced, and then I scraped some of the seeds and put them on a napkin and let them dry out for a bit, cut the napkin so there are 3 seeds on each piece and then put them on top of potting mix and dusted about 1/8 inch of seed starting soil.
Some of the lower leaves on the tobacco plant were drooping pretty hard for a couple of days, so I went ahead and harvested them. Typically, the bottom leaves are harvested earlier, and the good leaves from the top are used commercially.
