Thank you Brian from Australia. A standard black pot with a fuchsia to buy here in 2022 is AU$12.95 !!!!!!!! I don't even know anyone that I can "borrow" some cuttings from hehehehehehhe
because I couldn't find my budding knife I had to use the monster you saw in the vid. Perspex was the safest option. the point of the blade was able to bite into the Perspex and keep a true line of cut. always safety first nigel. thanks for watching, mate.
Looking for some ideas to spruce up the yard. Selecting some flowers with the wife and trying to figure out what should go where. Nice tutorial. Thanks Rob P.S. I agree night shifts.
Thank you for the lovely video. I want to take cuttings from a fuschia that was given to me, but mine does not have the nodes as shown in yours. So the two main stems have two opposite leaves at intervals running up the stem. The stems are far too long with leaves at the uppermost tip. I want to take cuttings plus encourage the plant to bush out from the base. The stems at the base are quite woody at this stage. Another question please: I want to keep the plant in a pot rather than plant into the ground. What conditions do the plants prefer? I have mine in the shade on the East facing side of my property. I do have a covered back verandah so I can move it around to suit the plant. PS we have one more month of winter then will be heading into spring. I really hope you can help me here. Thanking you. Elaine from South Africa.
I really enjoyed,,very nice and simple explanation,,, but can i ask you where should I buy this seed??? I really surprised because I search in pounds shops even Homebase or flowers shops they do not have seeds ((((like you show us)))),I will be appropriate if you let me know where should I buy them??? or if you sell them I will pay twice if you could send me???.thank you so much for your EXCELLENT channel I add you now I really like they easy way you teach us.😘😘
whats a vid without a clanger. put a guy my size in a small space like a greenhouse, a clanger is just around the corner. I have to hang my coat on the door or half the staging ends up on the floor. I said from day one that I would never edit out any mishaps. I like to keep it real. thanks for watching, graham.
can you tell me why you put the cuttings around the side of the pot rather than one stem in the middle? ive seen it done with lavender aswel. is there a reason for it? and is it just for specific plants or should all cuttings be treated in this way? thanks
Can anyone give me some advice I love trialling fuschia in my hanging baskets could I take cuttings and over winter them for next year's baskets as it would save me a fortune
cuttings can be taken throughout the summer, adam. for winter storage, keep the plants on the dry side in a non heated greenhouse but cover them with fleece.......................................brian
its not so much the taking of the cuttings people have problems with, but providing the heat and humidity to help with rooting. once the pot is in a tray with a cover on, stick it under the staging for shade. not one leaf has flagged over. thanks for watching, mate.
Thanks for uploading such informative videos for us. Please tell me the name of that rooting hormone and where from I could get it and also tell about the medium, i mean the composite mixture... Thanks Once Again.
fuchsia cuttings are so easy to root that rooting hormone isn't really necessary. the potting compost is just a cheap bag I bought. it was sieved and vermiculite was added to keep the compost nice and open for roots to thrive. no fertilizer was added at this stage. thanks for watching..................brian
as soon as there is at least six inches or so of growth on the stock plant. the earlier you start the better. ( if you have heat in the greenhouse ) if you don't grow with heat then I wouldn't start any earlier then april onwards. basically, I would treat them the same as any other fuchsia cuttings...................brian
its nice to see people watching. i'm not really concerned about forgetting the rooting powder because fuchsias strike very easy. the main thing is the temperature and humidity , hence the tray with a lid. thanks for watching, jacko.
That's ok I just thought I'd mention so you could, if you wanted, take them out and put some rooting powder on them. Look forward to your next upload cheers 🍻
Thanks great video

Brilliant video. Nice to see such a down to earth Geordie.
thank you
I grew nothing but fuchsias for years. Nice to see you taking the cuttings on a piece of glass 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Looking for some ideas to spruce up the yard. Selecting some flowers with the wife and trying to figure out what should go where. Nice tutorial. Thanks Rob P.S. I agree night shifts.

@@briansgardenandpolytunnel8172 brilliant thank you
I have never really had much success with cuttings but may have to try again after watching this

allotment life @ thanks for the reply sir.
Do you need to leave a tip on or can you trim it off
trim it off...............brian
When do you take giant fuchsia cuttings
as soon as there is at least six inches or so of growth on the stock plant. the earlier you start the better. ( if you have heat in the greenhouse ) if you don't grow with heat then I wouldn't start any earlier then april onwards. basically, I would treat them the same as any other fuchsia cuttings...................brian

Hi can you help me please
Nice quick tutorial I think you forgot to use rooting powder in 3 of the cuttings cheers 🍻
That's what I said to him but he said you don't have to use rooting powder
