1.5 years in 54 seconds - Dragon fruit cactus timelapse

"A pitaya or pitahaya is the fruit of several cactus species indigenous to the region of southern Mexico and along the Pacific coasts of Guatemala, Costa Rica, and El Salvador. Pitaya is cultivated in East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the United States, the Caribbean, Australia, Brazil, and throughout tropical and subtropical regions of the world.

Pitaya usually refers to fruit of the genus Stenocereus, while pitahaya or dragon fruit refers to fruit of the genus Selenicereus (formerly Hylocereus), both in the family Cactaceae. The common name in English – dragon fruit – derives from the leather-like skin and scaly spikes on the fruit exterior. Depending on the variety, pitaya fruits may have sweet- or sour-tasting flesh that can be red, white, or yellow in color."

"Cactus grow sideways"
"Man stabilize it"
Cactus: lmao, nope, I will be growing sideways 😂

There's something incredibly beautiful about the endless cycle of young tendrils emerging and reaching for the sun before collapsing under their own weight and becoming the foundation for new growth

[Burrr]

pretty impressive how this fruit thrives from such a tiny seed

[German-guy-]

can we please thank the camera man for standing still this long?

[xxxx]

I need you to stop growing - cuts
Cactus: lmao nah

Wind is super important in developing structural integrity in plants. Same reason why tree rings aren’t perfectly symmetrical.

I really appreciate that you always mention the time that it takes to grow the things you're growing in each video. Makes it more realistic versus "that guy did it in less than a minute on his video. Bet I could do it in week"

The most patient YouTube channel right here folks

You need a more intense grow light to prevent it from getting so leggy.

Good to know dragon fruit needs sunlight and not grow lights. I looked up why it was so thin and long instead of thick and wider and it said lack of sunlight

[Bendyinksad]

The cactus was like: nah im gonna fall

[lethalprincess]

This was so beautiful I’m trying not to cry. I don’t know why, but I felt like the plant was saying “I’m growing up, Dad! Catch me! Make sure I can support myself until I am big and strong!”

Sukuna: *Uses Cleave* STOP CACTUS!

Cactus: Nah I'd Grow

[leihoa]

I always look in awe and think about the great power of life that lies within every cell.

[perrythesylvester]

There is something expressive and touching about this.
Like an example of the human struggle.
But it is not human.
Almost like all life experiences existence in a similar way.

I'm growing some of these from seed, we are at about day 122 right now, thanks for the video!

[Sweet]

You show us the best art! Life in its development. Super beautiful! Thank you!

[Got_Dayng]

That cactus grew up listening to Beyonce...

To the left, to the left!

[HydrusT]

Literally made me tear up...something deeply profound about every movement and moment of growth. Death and rebirth, it is all that we as humans will ever experience.

It has been nearly 2years but fruit is still in heaven 😂
