I used this method, water only and was able to start a few rosemary plants, mints, sage and lavender. The lavender took a little longer to root but definetly works. Awesome.
Just lost three of my beautiful and bountiful rosemary bushes to freezing temps, but there are enough springs to propagate some new trees. I didn't even know this was possible. Thanks!

Mint is one of the easiest things to grow from cuttings. It makes lots of roots just in water very quickly. Plant it out and keep it watered and it will spread. You will soon be able to give plants to your friends.
+Terry Karr The result was the plant without root start rooted first. Herbs and Rosemary are very easy to propagate, no rooting hormone is needed. I've done it with peppers as well, not needed either. I will not buy it again int he future.
I turned 1 piece of basil from The grocery store into 5 plants now just a couple months later. Same with mint, thyme, green onions, chives, now I’m trying rosemary. I have so much I don’t know what to do with it now. Lol.
When I prune my rosemary I just put the cuttings in old potting soil, keep it moist and keep it in the shade. That's it and I have a very high succes rate.
@@sunnysmiles8211 soil has to be kept constantly moist until the plat takes hold. Water 2 or 3 times a day in free draining soil. After a few months they become pretty much bullet proof and require little maintenance
Thank's mate. Exactly what I was looking for and put succinctly. I looked at the messages below. If English is your second language your pretty damn impressive. ( Though you were a Canadian ) I live in an arid high plain in Australia ( I'm Australian so, fair enough, really. ) Thanks you Khang and keep up the good work.
Great information. I haven't had much success with plants with wood stems. But, I have a huge rosemary bush, so I'm going to tey your technique. I wsnt to try to propagate my Japanese Maples, too. There is a liquid root hormone available that might work better for you. I've never used rooting hormones in water. Bur, I do use it on the actual cutting when propagateing my geraniums in soil. I let start a root in water and then dip them in the powder & it works great.
I recently used this method without the hormones, and it does work. However, it took 5 weeks for the roots to come out. You have to be patient. I used a short glass jar instead of a plastic water bottle.
Indeed, did the pot with hormone in it do better? Otherwise, very useful video thanks very much. And thanks for not playing distracting background music!
Critical Thinker I think it’s important to take into account exactly where the cutting was made. The cutting with the rooting hormone was taken from the top, which means that the bottom of the cutting is the middle of a full stem, whereas the rosemary cutting without the hormone was taken from the bottom. It’s usually the case that tip cuttings develop roots slower than bottom sections.
I bought a plastic pack of Rosemary for about $3.00 @ my supermarket for about 4 stems of them I will try letting some stay in water to grow some roots if lucky & replant them etc thanks for sharing etc.
Yes, change the water frequently or even daily and be SURE they get PLENTY of light. If they don't get enough light, they will wilt and rot. I bought one of those mini greenhouse dome plastic things and jiffy peat pods and put it on a back porch that was heavily shaded and they all died from fungus and rotting. I tried some outdoors where it was shaded and they dropped for a few days and then rooted and grew. The same applies for some varieties of Coleus, if they don't get ENOUGH light, they will die instead of growing roots (Such as Burgundy Wedding Train trailing red and green coleus). However, there is a species of coleus, Electric Lime, and it can grow and root under artificial light (1,500 - 5,000 lumens LED), just make sure you fertilize your well-established plants, or they will weaken and die over time.
I am wondering: I am in Michigan, and right now, we are preparing our outdoor rosemary for winter for the first time. We plan to mulch heavy with straw and then put a tent over the entire plot of plants for the winter. The plants I have outside, I have been warned to NOT bring into the warm house at all because they need to overwinter in the cold. So I plan to leave them in a semi heated garage (just enough heat to prevent any freezing). That being said, as I understand it, rosemary is going to lose it's leaves one way or another for the winter season and so I was wondering if I should put of propagation until spring time or will the young plants simply grow-on as if they were being grown in a warmer climate. Do you have any opinion or XP with that by chance? Should I expect the new plants to shed their leaves as the season sets in, or no? Thanks in advance.
so it does not matter at which point in the branch you cut it? I am trying to understand if i should cut it below or above where the new leaves are coming out
Khand Stary, what type of water do you normally use please?. This is because I have water from an ordinary open well which produces water for the whole year.
rooting hormone powder: it works best if you dip the end of the cutting in the powder & then put it in the water. this is also true if you want to plant new seedlings, dip them in powder then into soil & water. it attaches more directly to cutting.
I have propagated mint, basil, have some rosemary doing ok I guess with some root develping.... but when I tried sage and thyme from cuttings, the sage developed root and when I put in soil died.... the thyme just died as a cutting in good water same as you show here. What could make the sage and thyme act so bad?
Thyme yes... Cilantro and parsley no. Those two herbs tend to NOT root from cuttings. They'll stay alive in water for a while... But you can't create new plants from them.
Thanks for the video. I did this with my Rosemary and it has been about three months now. They are still green but very little growth. I put mine directly in regular soil mixed with rice husks. I water with a weak mixture of urea and a complete fertilizer. My parent plant I have had for maybe two years and it is growing slow too. It is in a large pot of the same soil. I am wondering if I Rosemary is just a slow growing herb.
Thank you so much! I have great luck with this method for my basil, but never with my rosemary. Maybe it was just me thinking the worst, enforcing the law of attraction upon myself. Lol. Glad to see it really is that simple!
+John Chips Rosemary are very easy to propagate. In this instance, the rooting hormone didn't do much. The branch without actually rooted 4 days earlier than the one with rooting hormone.
Hello,do u know what is the best way to start rosemary from seeds and how long it takes and also when is best time to transplant Carolina reaper from 6 packs and what is best food for it to get it grow quicker thanks.
I used this method, water only and was able to start a few rosemary plants, mints, sage and lavender. The lavender took a little longer to root but definetly works. Awesome.
That basil from noodle soup is very impressive, great video, thank you. Subbed!
Thanks for subbing!
Thank you 🙏
Khang Starr hey should I bring my thyme and rosemary herb
Thank you !!
My daughter has a big bush of rosemary and so I started to cut some branches to propagate them..Awesome! thank you for this video..it's simple & easy!
You have a very soothing voice. Nice video!
Just lost three of my beautiful and bountiful rosemary bushes to freezing temps, but there are enough springs to propagate some new trees. I didn't even know this was possible. Thanks!
They will come back !
When it comes to coming up with great ideas you are amazing, I can't get enough of these videos,thank you so much,have a great day.
I used leftover rosemary and basil bought from store and they have developed roots! Thanks :)
wow, so cool. I'm trying to propogate mint right now and I hope successful

that's so cool that you can grow herbs that way. We get pho a lot, I'm going to try and grow some basil like that.
Your basil is wonderful! Hugs from Brazil!
Excited to know, I can propagate Rosemary, one of my favorite herbs. Great information!
What do you do with it? I have no idea what to use it in as a vegetarian.
You should be a counselor, hypnotherapist, or a meditation coach, you have a soothing voice!
I wanted to see the comparison between the plant that had root starter and the plant that did not. What were your results?
+Terry Karr The result was the plant without root start rooted first. Herbs and Rosemary are very easy to propagate, no rooting hormone is needed. I've done it with peppers as well, not needed either. I will not buy it again int he future.
Thanks!!!
Hey Khang, do you have a guide on how to set up your hydroponic grow pots, like the ones you had your basil in?
you need to apply it on the plant, not to the water. and it helps mostly with trees etc.
I've never heard of using the root hormone in water. Normally people dip a cutting in it before placing in moist soil mix.
Sweet! Thanks man, this helps alot. My buddy just gave me a huge piece of his rosemary he clipped today.
And your last name is Rosemary too!
Thanks for sharing!
I love Rosemary for roasting.
Your method worked Great!
3 out of 3 cuttings grew roots within 2 weeks & have been planted. Thanks, 👍
You're a great teacher. Thanks for the useful tips.
Nice job! I just did a similar video with my results. Such a cool feeling to see your plant cuttings successfully rooting.
I am propagating my rosemary right now. Thanks for sharing.
your video was very well put to the point I just bought some rosemary and I will follow you advise on growing them instead of buying them
this looks very easy to do. I'm going to try it with some of my plants at home. thanks for the tips.
This method really works, especially in the summer.
I turned 1 piece of basil from
The grocery store into 5 plants now just a couple months later. Same with mint, thyme, green onions, chives, now I’m trying rosemary. I have so much I don’t know what to do with it now. Lol.
Great tip my friend, i will try this method to propagate my rosemary and lavender, cheers Khang :)
Tony.
Wow nice propagation.
Basil from noodle soup.. I had taken mint from vietnamese rice and propagated it
Thanks for the video! I've been looking for a way to grow more rosemary plants.
Thank you for this! You have a wonderful and soothing voice!
Thank you for sharing. I’m ready to try this right now following all your instructions ☺️. More power to your channel.
When I prune my rosemary I just put the cuttings in old potting soil, keep it moist and keep it in the shade. That's it and I have a very high succes rate.
same, i have loads that are growing
I must be doing something wrong, because both of my cuttings died. My rosemary cuttings did not grow roots and they did not live in the soil.
@@sunnysmiles8211 soil has to be kept constantly moist until the plat takes hold. Water 2 or 3 times a day in free draining soil. After a few months they become pretty much bullet proof and require little maintenance

Thanks very much Khang for sharing that good tip for propagating herbs- Simple but effective. Best wishes .Patrick
+Patrick Meehan Thanks Patrick!
Thank you.
I enjoyed your video and am going to make some cuttings right now.
Susan Ackoff Ortega same here
Thank you! I got rosemary from my parents so I will be trying this today :-)
Love the recycle idea ! Neat ! Really very simple ! Thank you for sharing !

Rosemary is great! Great for memory
Indeed, did the pot with hormone in it do better? Otherwise, very useful video thanks very much. And thanks for not playing distracting background music!
So did it root better w/ the root hormones in the water ??
Mat Tuk he answered in a different comment. Rooting hormone was useless - the one without it routed faster
Critical Thinker I think it’s important to take into account exactly where the cutting was made. The cutting with the rooting hormone was taken from the top, which means that the bottom of the cutting is the middle of a full stem, whereas the rosemary cutting without the hormone was taken from the bottom.

Great info thank you I'm a rookie grower just starting out with some veges and herbs. New sub here.
Thanks for the video, dont you have a video showing this cuttings with more roots? Thanks congratulations
I just tried this and thank you very much
Can you do plants like licorice and lavendar because those and basil grow wild in my neighborhood
Great video! THanks for the education!
I bought a plastic pack of Rosemary for about $3.00 @ my supermarket for about 4 stems of them I will try letting some stay in water to grow some roots if lucky & replant them etc thanks for sharing etc.
need to try this many thanks for your video
Super! Especially for a beginner like me. Thanks.
Water propagation normally works, true. But does it work ANY time of year? Or are some seasons better than others? More info would help thanks.
You make very helpful videos! thanks
+tgo92507 Thank you!

Hello,
Thks for v.d.o. u cut
Rosemary stem at 45
degs why not 15,25,30 or180 degs.
Very helpful video! Thanks for posting! :D
so it does not matter at which point in the branch you cut it? I am trying to understand if i should cut it below or above where the new leaves are coming out
How long does it take to grow from cuttings to be able to harvest them?
Do you know why why rosemary turn brown on the bottom part and leaves are not as green and not as fragrant as they were bought. Thanks for any tips.
Wow October 23rd lol I thought this video was made today. Just had to look at the date of the video when it was made.
Incredible! Many many Thanks!
Very simple method thank you
Khand Stary, what type of water do you normally use please?. This is because I have water from an ordinary open well which produces water for the whole year.
Amazing video! Thank you for sharing!
Did u show us the difference between rooting hormone/no rooting hormone?
Can the cutting be directly planted in soil instead of rooting in water??
rooting hormone powder: it works best if you dip the end of the cutting in the powder & then put it in the water. this is also true if you want to plant new seedlings, dip them in powder then into soil & water. it attaches more directly to cutting.
I have propagated mint, basil, have some rosemary doing ok I guess with some root develping.... but when I tried sage and thyme from cuttings, the sage developed root and when I put in soil died.... the thyme just died as a cutting in good water same as you show here. What could make the sage and thyme act so bad?
Very useful to know. Thanks!
Very good information, thanks.
Help! The root of my rosemary has a bit of white fuzzy stuff! What is it and what should I do?!
I saw that thumbnail and was about to say "That sure is one weird looking cannabis plant!"
Is it necessary to put perlite or vermiculite for the potting soil for rosemary? What's the difference if there was none?
What about the one on the right with the rooting hormone ??
Can I do this with Thyme and Parsely/Coriander?
Yes
Thyme yes... Cilantro and parsley no. Those two herbs tend to NOT root from cuttings. They'll stay alive in water for a while... But you can't create new plants from them.
i want some more rosemary plant.
Thanks for sharing this method Khang! =)

don't use fertilizer, just water or better yet rainwater
Thank you so much! I have great luck with this method for my basil, but never with my rosemary. Maybe it was just me thinking the worst, enforcing the law of attraction upon myself. Lol. Glad to see it really is that simple!
Thanks I am going to do like a dozen😀😀😀👍👍
hi Khang,I'm your new sub,love your video,thanks for sharing
I have the same question as Mat Tuk, what rooted better the one in water or the one in water with rooting hormone?
So do you mainly grow hydroponic or in soil
I got a rosemary in my garden but it not look healthy and stopped growing more, what should I do it?
Nice video. Thanks. So the added rooting hormone didn't do much?
+John Chips Rosemary are very easy to propagate. In this instance, the rooting hormone didn't do much. The branch without actually rooted 4 days earlier than the one with rooting hormone.
What type of soil does a Rosemary twig grow best in? After it produces a root system?
is it good if i put water from my fish pond? the water is greenish tho.
hey, nice job but what about the one with the rooting power, how is that one doing?
I’ve been trying to propagate Rosemary for some time now but it’s not working! It’s like the bottom of the branch that’s in water rots 🤦🏽♀️
Many thanks for sharing. It works in UAE 👍
Keep it up
thanks for another great informative video Khang.
+Cindy Villarreal Thanks Cindy!
Hello .... can you tell me how your camera behind you to make the video? Do you have a special tripod? Thank you!
Yes, I used a tripod.
Hello,do u know what is the best way to start rosemary from seeds and how long it takes and also when is best time to transplant Carolina reaper from 6 packs and what is best food for it to get it grow quicker thanks.
One is a cup of tab water? and the other is a solution? what was put into there?
What is the best time to propagate Rosemary I am in western part of USA
Thanks for your advice. 1 of mine has short root. i dont know which root it can be planted in soil better? im in asia.
Were u using hardwood cuttings??
Nicevideo. Well explained...
