Thanks for your feedback and tricks. One question I have: where do you buy the parafilm? I've searched it on Amazon, but wasn't successful. Thanks in advance
Do you have a update on how many rooted. I probably have more then houndred cuttings from different apple trees / sorts that I am hoping to keep alive. I dont have root stocks, might buy for next year. But the plan is to start propagating them myself.
I did do an update in one of my propagation update videos. I only had a few survive. A had an infestation of fungal gnats that devastated all my propagations that year.
@@gardeningsimplifiedThank you, its my first time taking cuttings for apple trees this way. Hopefully I will have beginner luck. Wish you a good gardening year !
I saw a video that suggested using sand at top (surface) of soil and bottom of cup (under soil) to discourage gnats. Supposedly trying to get through the sand is like crawling through glass for gnats. Hope this helps. @@gardeningsimplified
You can also dip the tops in hot candle wax ,it works well

@@gardeningsimplified merci
Do u ever consider selling any ? I had 2. But lost last Feb in snow/ freeze . along with my heavy producing Meyer lemons and Sunkist grapefruits.
I may sell some locally if I have extras.
It is nearly impossible to root apple cuttings. Take a lot, give it a try, but don't expect any roots.
I didn't have much success with mine. Very few rooted.
How many put roots on?
Only a couple. I had a bad fungal gnat infestation that year.
I just came across your video. You’re doing that in January. I’m in April. Do I still have time to try it this year?
I didn't like my outcome propagating apple cuttings. This year I plan to air layer some.
trying some air layering too. @@gardeningsimplified I’m
Wouldn't it save a lot of work to root the rootstock, and then just graft cuttings onto them without also rooting the scion?
It would save time if I would have just wanted a grafted tree, but I wanted to compare the growth of a grafted tree to a tree on its own rootstock.

one year later - how are they doing
I only had two survive.
@@gardeningsimplified 2 put of 7 is npt a bad ratio. My first attempt at this was a big ZERO.
Sir can seeds birth same species
No, because the flower was cross-pollinated.
Results????
I only had a couple survive due to a fungal gnat infestation.
Your making it way more difficult and its really hard to listen to you
Thanks for your input. It does take time to improve, putting out great content. This is one of my older videos.
This guy is a troll. How about you make some videos and show us like this guy. 💩
