Growing dragon fruit from seeds

Most would grow dragon fruit from cuttings because that's the easiest and fastest. I wonder if any serious farmer would ever try growing dragon fruit from seeds. I know it's going to be a long journey.  I don't mind going through  until the seedlings are strong enough to be planted in the ground.  They will soon be in the office table. I know it's going a new craze..., with lots of huh hah..... Soon Ziela will nurse the little seedlings with spraying bottle..!!! as daily chore.


Germinating dragon fruit seeds
Scoop out the black seeds, filter out the flesh and jelly coating, 
soak for two days. 
Place them on damp tissue in clear container.
Within a week, most will sprout.

  5. Thanks.... It doesn't take long for dragon fruit seed to germinate which is about a week. But I dont really know how many months each seedlings will take to mature and bear fruits.... It's a guessing game now..
