Hello everyone! This new video is about propagating fiddle-leaf fig from cuttings. And also how I grow them in clay pebbles (semi-hydroponic) with 90 days UPDATES. For any question, just comment below and I will respond immediately. Thank you so much ☺️.
This was the best trial and error Ficus Lyrata tutorial I've ever seen. I thought for sure he failed but he never gave up and ultimately succeeded. First you try and don't succeed, try try again. Thank you!!!!
Thanks for sharing, I just started propagating my Fiddle Leaf Fig plant and I was thinking cuttings would grow faster in LECA & water, but after watching this video, it proves to me, water is the best way to go. Thank you, great video 👍👍
this is one of the very BEST vids on proper way to propagate FLF. My first attempt at chopping top mine to propagate. Tysm❤again for detailed easy to see process & chill music 🎶 😅is a bonus
Thank you for letting us know. That happened to my expensive plant. All the leaves fell off. Now only the stem is standing😥😰. I will try to take cuttings of the stem and propagate in water. On buying plants everyone please do your research, go to You Tube.
Wonderful one of the almost dead one came alive You gave me a lot of confidence to take the initiative and get some cuttings from my only plant and make more plants hopefully
Thanks for sharing. I have one that is suffering from root rot (had no idea the grow pot didn’t have holes🤦🏿♀️). It only has 3 leaves left & I want to save her!
Keep it simple, use moist cocopeat or thoroughly cleaned spent tea leaves with some antifungal powder. It encourages root growth in less time. You can also wrap the plant with these materials to grow ariel roots anywhere on the plant within a week or so.
Thank you for a such informative video. I also tried various methods to propagate ficus Lyrata and my experiments also concluded that water propagation (in the beginning) is the best way.
Excelente video gracias por enseñarnos la manera de como cuidar u hacer que renasca la ficus pandurata o lyrata oh conocida también como hoja de violín que procedimiento debemos poner las bolitas que materia es perdón
Helloo!very interesting video.last week I have ordered flddle leaf plant.and when o got the product itself the leaf become crumbling ..kindly help me to make it healthy 🙏
make sure it is not over exposed to sunlight, for the mean time let it exposed to morning sunshine for few hours then gradually increase to acclimatize the plant
Hi, thank you so much for making such video I would like to know any liquid fertilizer do you use with leca and water for growth? Please be genuine. Because I started using these pebbles for my plants and want to try cutting of fiddle leaf fig 🙏
Did you ever try with the leaves you took away? Just the leaf, no branch. I did it and after 2 months I start seeing roots, I wonder if this leaf can create a new plant
When you moved the cuttings to LECA did you add nutrients to the water? or was it just Water to help with the root growth? Also did you end up moving the cuttings to soil?
Hi from the UK🇬🇧. My expensive ficus lost ALL its leaves.😭. I think I gave it too much water at the wrong time. All my leaves turned brown or had brown spots before falling off. Only the stem now left standing. I would like to propagate pieces of the stem in water. How did you sterilise the cutters? When the cutting left in water grew roots why did you not place it straightaway in soil? How long do you leave it in the Leca before placing it in the soil? And what type of soil is needed? Also, what type of feed is good for the plant? Also, also, where is a good place for them. In bright sunlight or near a window? I didn't realise you could propagate plants in various ways ie cut the leaf in half. Thank you for sharing😀. I am learning a lot about this plant.
Hi, just use alcohol swab to sterilize my cutting materials. I am growing most of my plants in semi-hydro method like in leca. My fiddle-leaf is growing well in leca and I did not transfer to soil anymore. And I am using General Hydroponic Flora Series fertilizer. You can put your plants near the window where it can get indirect sunlight if not available use a grow light.
@@thegreenearth Thank you so much for replying. I will try to get the fertiliser you mention. I took 4 cuttings from the leafless stem. They are sat in water in plastic pots. I'm very excited to see what will happen in the next few wks. I hope they grow.🤞🏿😀 Another question. What should I do with the remainder of the stem from the original plant which is in the soil? Will it grow leaves again or do I discard?
@@Breaktheduopoly I took 4 cuttings off the main stem and dipped each in root hormone and placed them in water. Every one of them grew leaves and they all now have the beginnings of roots, bar one. I stuck that last one in soil to see if it would grow roots this way. So far it has not. The remainder stem in the plant pot has 7 leaves and new buds. It is sat near a window which gets the sun in the afternoon. I check the soil in the plant pot regularly and have inserted a glass bowl with water which slowly lets water seep into soil. I do a finger test and if the soil feels damp I remove the bowl. The cuttings are still sat in water with the root hormone. The roots have appeared on the stems like small white bulbs but they have not as yet grown long like normal roots. I don't know if I need to wait for the roots to grow long before placing the cuttings in the soil. I have changed the water and placed new root hormone on the ends of the cuttings.
@@katzwhite5962 well done! Very happy for you. It’s a beautiful plant. I love mine. They definitely don’t like to be overwatered. The finger test is a good idea!
I have a fiddle fig that I grew from a small plant now that it has grown 10x bigger I would love to propagate it. Where did you get the idea for your DIY greenhouse?
How do I get my baby small ficus to turn the small light green leaves into a darker green leaves? This is so very new to me. Please help me out with some advice. I would appreciate it. This is my very first ficus that my hubby has bought me.. My name is Amy.
От такі червоні плями на листях фікуса сигналізують про перелив чи занадто багато вологи. Нарізаєте черенки, залишаєте по пів листка саджаєте в ґрунт і ставите у великий лоток(тепличка) у тепле сонячне місце, але щільно кришку не закриваєте, час від часу оприскуєте листя, але завжди має бути доступ свіжого повітря.

I did not tried that yet. But I think it would be the same with rubber plant. If you just root the leaf alone without stem it will just root but not grow as a new plant.
Base on what I have read, it is due to either over watering or under watering. But so far, my fiddle leaf brown spots are fading overtime and they are look great now.
Hi, sorry I don’t have the chance to show you guys about my old plants because we move to another country already. And yes the mother plants got new shoots and I think it grows well now with the new owner of the plants.
So,is it okay for those red spots to be there? I see that on my own flf,and I am rather new to these plants. I read those spots are called edema? Please help!!😊
Yeah they called it edema or means your plants is over watering. But in my case, those spots appeared initially when the new leaves are developing, and later on as they matured these spots disappear.

Hi, this plant can be grown in any country inside your house as long as you provide the necessary care they need. See the link here to read more about the plant ☺️. stumpplants.com/journal/fiddle-leaf-fig-guide
You need to dibble your media ie make a hole before you insert your cuttings. The cut area is very delicate and using that to make the hole can set it back badly.
I water weekly ..it’s does get thirsty. Let water drain thru but don’t flood it w/water. I did couple times overwater my 6’ flf when I noticed the red splotches edema, on a leaf.

Very informative video indeed. Kindly advise me after taking cutting should we allow them to dry or directly put into any growing media ??
@@romesafaraz359 in my case, I immediately plant the cuttings to growing media.
Will the mother plant keep growing after we cut off branches from it?
Can we grow Zz plant in LECA
After the roots come out, we can planted in sod
This was the best trial and error Ficus Lyrata tutorial I've ever seen. I thought for sure he failed but he never gave up and ultimately succeeded. First you try and don't succeed, try try again. Thank you!!!!
This video is all about hope... you don't lose hope on something you love. Such a beautiful process to reflect upon! Thank you.

I love this! And by the way the red spots are edema, for anyone that’s wondering. Happens when fiddles get a lot of water all of a sudden.
Yeah, I notice those spots, but as the leaves are growing these spots slowly fading too.

@@MartineReed Yes, that works too. Its also a good nutrient for plant.
Wunderschön! ❤😍🤩
Thank you for the info..I gave up mine..I will try again after watch this video
I got a 10ft fiddle at a yard sale and want to shorten it. get the original stalk to bush out. and start new plants with the cuttings. Now I know how
Thanks for the video!!
thanks for sharing the video. how often you put nutrition to the plants ? will it attract mosquitoes or insects ?
😮😮😮❤❤❤ more power God Bless!!!

Wow Ganda po
Great video, thank you!
They're soooooooo pretty😻
Thank you for sharing your videos Have a wonderful 😘 time ❤❤
Thks a lot for this demo video.. Exactly just what i needed. But why is there the rust on the new leaves, how to treat them?
It will go away automatically when the leaves matures.
What is that box with curtains you place your propagating? Im interested on knowing about that! That would be a great video 😃😃😃
Excellent explanation!

The mother plant eventually died after few weeks because I forgot to water for long time. 😓

I am using General Hydroponics Flora Series in just tap water.
@@thegreenearth thank you so much for your response.... I will try this method then. Because my rubber plant is dead now I want to give a try
Fiddle plant is a big tree..I found it everywhere behind my yard
Did you ever try with the leaves you took away? Just the leaf, no branch. I did it and after 2 months I start seeing roots, I wonder if this leaf can create a new plant
Do I have to have a leaf to propagate? A lot of my leaves fell off but I have a long stem . Could I propagate them in a tub with perlite
When you moved the cuttings to LECA did you add nutrients to the water? or was it just Water to help with the root growth? Also did you end up moving the cuttings to soil?
I just add water until they get roots. I am growing them in LECA only. I’m not using soil for my houseplants nowadays.
Beautiful
Acá en Argentina no se consiguen esas bolitas de leca. Por que lo puedo reemplazar?
Здорово!!!!
Very good 👍
So, according to video, ¿Is better in water for rooting, right?
yes

Wowwwww😍 that's amazing 👍. I don't have any fiddle leaf fig😭.
Wow i will try it
Question
Must roots that are in clay pebbles always have water at the bottom?
And after how long can it be buried in the vase?
Yes, keep the water refilled before it gets dry.
I put mine in a round crystal base and thete str many roots now. How many roots till I can.put in soil?
What time of year do you suggest to do this?
I have a fiddle fig that I grew from a small plant now that it has grown 10x bigger I would love to propagate it. Where did you get the idea for your DIY greenhouse?

yes definitely, it is re-usable. Just wash thoroughly.
How does adema affect the plant?
Hi, wondering if it works to propagate just the leaves that you break off the stem? Thanks!
I did not tried that yet, but I think it would be the same as rubber plant on which the leaf will just root but won’t become a new plant.
