Yes Mario ! :)
But I cannot get such huge Hylo-bombs like you have :( these mine are little 10cm only, and very young offsets. I wish one day I will have also such big Hylocereus stocks like you have or Thai / Japanese/ Chinese have in they nurseries.

What they need to grow up so big ? only warm environment or also some special feeding ?

Hi Tomas, don't worry they will grow, as long as you give them some heat and rain water and some fertilizer. We have not yet started spring, we have the best, still to come, they will plump up by the end of the year.
