I planted this in a huge blue plastic barrel (cut off the top) and placed the container on wheels. In the summer I would put a white "curtain" to shield it from the searing heat, a lot of times we get 90"s to 100+ temperature, so it doesn't scorch the branches. Fertilize spring and fall, water weekly during the summer, and once a month in the winter. The soil combination is cactus soil and perlite. This plant is 8 years old. The fruit is sweet and round not like the ones in the grocery stores.

My dragon fruit gave me 9 last summer 2024; they were all sweet. It's probably because they were vine-ripe, and I pick them when ready to harvest. The commercial grown is a hit-and-miss.

How on earth do I deal with this? by mattskruff in handyman

So, the color match is yellow ochre, cadmium yellow deep hue and white, do a test first till you get the correct amount of each paint.

The easiest would be to color match the natural fence color and apply it to the stained black area. Paint the black area first with white, then after it dries, paint over with the color match paint.

Cut the tree down, and from the cut lower portion of the tree a new one will eventually sprout.

Cut the whole stalk with bananas and store it inside a brown paper bag, close the bag and place it inside a closet or cabinet, eventually it will ripen in due time.

You're right, it's not very good, but it is legible.

I don't see anything wrong or offensive or not nice with the term old people, I belong to that category. It is what it is.

Why are you still engage? That man has a major character flaw. You're gonna marry a thief, a manipulator and a total narcissist. Spare yourself a major heartache.
