Just came across this. I used to live in Hawaii and would pick dragonfruit on the roadside regularly. Can I grow them indoors, and how long until it produces fruit?

Its just not a thing that has to be forced into being. There are plenty of tropicals that can be well done under lights or dwarfed. Cacao, vanilla, plenty of ornamental s will do just fine owing to the fact that they evolved in light limited circumstances.

You are the one acting like this is an all or nothing thing with no attempt to address the probability of success critically. Growing the wrong plant, in the wrong location, wrong climate, wrong system, wrong times of year: this is setting up novice gardeners for failure.

They are asking a question about growing dragon fruit indoors and filling people with false hope is a kind of deception that I don't appreciate.
