First use a spoon to scoop out the flesh, wrap it in gauze, rub it to crush it, and separate out the black seeds. If you do not have gauze, pantyhose also works.

Use a paper towel to blot the water from the washed seeds, or use a fan to gently dry them, so they separate grain by grain. Sprinkle the seeds over the flower pot, then spray water several times.

Or you can make a small design; sprinkle some white pebbles beside it as decoration. After the seedlings grow out, they are so beautiful beyond words.

When the temperature is low, you can also wrap the flower pot with plastic wrap and spray water several times a day until new shoots grow, only then can you lift the plastic wrap.

After a week it will cover the whole flower pot, and at first they are all very tender young shoots. After a few months it will begin to have a bit of the shape and thorns of a night-blooming cereus~

Dragon fruit care is very simple. Usually give it more light and more sun, and it will grow very well. When it is a seedling, you can keep the potting soil slightly moist. Apply some fertilizer appropriately. For 1-year-old seedlings, mainly use nitrogen fertilizer to promote growth. From 2-3 years on, you can mainly use phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. In daily life, chicken manure, rabbit manure, tofu residue, urine, plant ash, and so on are all very good fertilizers.
