Pitaya is suitable for growing in the environment with sufficient light, but it is not suitable to be directly exposed to strong light at the young seedling stage, and it needs proper shade. With the growth of the plant, you can slowly increase the light

As a tropical plant, pitaya has a higher temperature requirement. It is suitable for growing in the environment of 25-35 ℃ and can also withstand the high temperature of 40 ℃. If the temperature doesn't reach the standard, its growth will slow down.

The water requirement of Pitaya at seedling stage is very high. The basin soil should be kept moist all the time, especially in spring and summer, so as to promote the growth of root system. After the fruit, there should be enough water so that the fruit will expand. It should be noted that there should be no ponding in the basin soil, or the root will rot.

In order to promote the development of seedlings, we need to apply a little fertilizer to them. The concentration of fertilizer should not be too heavy, so as not to affect its development. The initial fertilizer is mainly nitrogen, which can make it grow faster. But after growing up, we should give priority to P and K fertilizer, otherwise it will lead to its vapid growth.
