Planting Hylocereus coastaricensis Seeds

We ate a Red Dragon Fruit that was locally grown on the Big Island and it was very delicious. So delicious that we decided to grow some of our own. Looking on the internet, I found this ziplock bag method of germinating and rearing the seedlings. If these germinate and grow into small plants (6 to 10 days to germinate, 2 months to grow past the deciduous leaf stage into cacti), it should take another couple of years before the first fruits are harvested. But a journey of a thousand miles starts with one step... I'll post more as these grow (or not).
