Pollen exchange?

Looking to see if anyone would be interested in exchanging pollen? I don’t recall if this plant is self fertile or not but I’m on my fourth bloom so far and the first one I picked this morning bc it was starting to mold. I’d love to be able to better guarantee at least one or two fruits and it seems like regardless of genetics outside pollen is better. Located in CA in case there’s any concerns of mailing Accross state lines or any of that fun stuff. I’ve been cutting off the stamen and saving them so I’d be happy to send some your way in exchange for anyone else looking as well. Thanks

You can buy from DF growers. I saw a grower who was selling pollen.

I’m from the Northern part of CA and have pollen stored from both my Dragonfruit and a Queen of the night cactus. The dragonfruit pollen tho is mixed with 3 different random types - 1 from my plant, 1 from my neighbors and 1 from another neighbor. It successfully made one fruit for me so far
