mk30, 10 months ago to random #DragonfruitRepair sometimes dragonfruit plants get The Rot. it spreads & liquifies the plant. pic 1 shows a pretty bad case of rot. i've seen different suggestions for fixing it, but the one that seems to work is to scoop out all the rot w/your bare hand. i did that, washed it with soap/water (like a wound) & it dried up within a day. (see pic 2.) i'll monitor this section for more rot. if it repeats, i might split this section off. #dragonfruit #tropical #plants #TropicalAg #gardening the same area after i scooped all the rot out with my hand, cleaned it with soap, & let it dry. to the left of the scooped-out area, you can see an area that was previously similarly scooped out. it healed perfectly. no more rot there.
