Default Re: Dragon fruit flower opened earlier than expected, what to do???

Right, you've got just one night. It looks like yours could self-pollinate but it still requires some wind, gravity, etc. and I think it's just a safer bet to go ahead and help it. I believe the more thorough the pollination, the larger the fruit. Hopefully, your plant is receptive to its own pollen. I think your method of pollination was fine.
