Planting a potted fruit at home is beautiful and delicious. Pitaya is a fruit that we often eat. If the temperature is suitable, we can also try to plant a potted pitaya ourselves. The flowers are beautiful and the fruit is delicious, which can clear away heat and fire. How to plant potted pitaya, and how to produce more and bigger fruits?

Potted pitaya is such a small method, it can be planted without seedlings, and it is delicious and fruitful.

Pitaya is a climbing succulent shrub of Cactus, which has no main roots and many aerial roots on its branches and stems. It can withstand the temperature of about zero, and the soil for growing pitaya can also be ordinary garden soil, but it is best to have fertile, loose, breathable and drainage soil, and add some humus soil and sand. Garden soil is better. In short, the soil must be well drained and there can be no water accumulation.

You don't need to buy seedlings to grow pitaya. In fact, you can cut yourself as long as you find some branches. Several of Xiaoya's flower friends cut their own pitaya seedlings, which bore fruit smoothly.

Generally, people who have planted pitaya will often prune the branches of pitaya, so only one or two branches, that is, side branches, need to be cut into wet sand or vermiculite peat soil, and it is easy to grow roots.

The pot for growing pitaya is better to be larger, with a diameter of 30 cm. There must be drainage holes to facilitate ventilation and drainage. It's best to cut more trees in a flowerpot. First, they can support each other. Second, because two or three plants can be cross-pollinated together.

You can't water it too much at ordinary times, because it belongs to cactus family and is more drought-tolerant. Just keep it dry and wet, and you must not water it too much, otherwise it will easily rot the roots. So water the basin when it is dry. Don't let it accumulate water when it rains.

After the cuttings survive, a pitaya seedling leaves only one lateral branch. When it grows to one meter high, it can be trimmed and cut off a few centimeters to promote it to grow more lateral branches, so that it will blossom and bear more fruits and grow more luxuriantly. When the branches grow more, you can build a bracket for it with sticks or other things. So the branches will grow longer and more.

Fertilize once a month during the growth period, and you can use organic fertilizer. It is best to start applying nitrogen fertilizer. After flowering, it is mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. Get more sunshine and keep plenty of light.

Generally, the seedlings of cuttings will grow particularly luxuriantly in one to two years, and they can bear fruit. They are big and beautiful fruits, delicious and eye-catching!
