First, after our seeds sprout and the seedlings grow to 3 to 5 cm, we need to move them into new pots. The potting soil must be loose, breathable and nutritious. Do not use pure garden soil; garden soil has no nutrients, which affects its growth and is also bad for its root growth. After transplanting, place it in a spot with plenty of light. Dragon fruit belongs to the cactus family, so it must receive sufficient light to grow well. Because it is a small seedling, it must be fertilized regularly. The dragon fruit's root system is very well developed, so as long as the temperature is suitable and it is in its growing season, you must give it plenty of fertilizer. During the seedling stage, use low-concentration fertilizer, and give it 3 to 4 times a month. The principle for watering is to water thoroughly once the potting soil has dried out completely.

From sowing seeds to growing big enough to bloom, dragon fruit takes more than three years. This process is very long. Generally, from sowing seeds, it can grow to more than 10 cm in the first year. The second and third years are when it grows branches quickly. Fertilizer and water must not be lacking; if they are lacking, its branches will grow thin and spindly. If you want dragon fruit seedlings to grow fast, fertilizing, watering and light are all indispensable. With proper care, it can bloom and bear fruit directly in about three years.
