![The Simplest way to Grow Moringa/Drumstick from Cuttings [Without Rooting Hormones]](/img/n.gif)
A lady sent me some moringa seeds abot a year ago, and she sent instructions with them. I followed the directions, but since they were a bit older (I think she had them for a while and decided to give them away because she had no success), I soaked them for about a day and a half, if not a little longer. Then I just placed them in a snack-sized ziplock bag (without the paper towel) and placed them in my kitchen towel drawer next to the stove. Over half of them have germinated, and I planted them in a plastic bin and some in plastic planters. I wish I had done the red cup method - yours look amazing! I'm praying that mine will do well, also. The instructions said that one shoot is a bit furry and that side should be up, exposed to the sun. Apparently, that is the shoot that will produce leaves. I will leave them in the containers until I think the roots need more room to expand, and then, in order not to disturb the roots that often, I'm thinking to transplant each tree in something a little bigger than what you are showing. I've never grown Moringa before, and I'm a little nervous, but God has blessed all the things I have sowed so far, so I'm counting on His goodness once again. Thank you so much for the video. You should have many more subscribers, so I'm going to be the next subscriber.💚(for growing food)💛(for friendship).
oh my goodness, I have tears reading your encouragement Lady Ela. I have been away from doing videos. all I did was just recording videos here and there but was not able to post because editing takes a while, but because of you I will try it again!
How are you're moringa now? I am growing them soon here in Canada! I will targeting first week of May!
I enjoy watching this lovely video , and thank you .
Glad you enjoyed it! are you gonna grow some moringa soon?
Thank you for this. I have not really grown moring from seeds but through shrubs I was able to. This is helpful.
You're welcome ! Back in the Philippines we only grow from cuttings but that's not available here in Canada so I am glad indeed to do this and share it 😊
Thanks for sharing your ideas Nanay.
My pleasure 😊
Ang the best na gulay malunggay ang ganda ng pagkasibol po
salamat po, yes po nakakaaliw tignan at malulusog sila.
I'm very interested in Moringa. Amazing plant and so many uses!!
Thanks for sharing Nanay!!
Cheers Jason and Colleen 🌱🌱🌱
And it's fun to grow too!
Give it a try !
Great job transplanting the mornings!
thank you!
Thanks for sharing! Good tips!❤
Glad you find it helpful! happy gardening!
Thanks for this video ❤
My pleasure 😊 i hope it is helpful!
Out of all the Moringa vids I've watched you actually showed us from seed, thank u US zone 8b 🌱💐
Glad you like the way I made it. It takes time but thinking about viewers like us made me do it patiently.
Thank you👍
Welcome 👍
Lovely
I have four seedlings growing indoors here in the UK
Wonderful! They grow crazy over the summer months!
@@gardeningwithnanay first year growing them
So eagerly awaiting the Summer months
@@AAHomeGardening how are your moringa now?
@@gardeningwithnanay I went away over Winter for nine weeks
It didn't get any care, so when I came back it was damaged and doing really poorly
I cut it back and now wanting for it to start putting on leaves again as the stem is still green
@@AAHomeGardening I think it will be okay now that you are back to take care for it! It may have went dormant too.
I did the papertowel with 3 seeds and all sprouted but one stuck to the paper and half the root broke, it still came up but its basicly just a small green stick with no leafs compared to the other two who are 10times as big with leafs :D
Good
☺
Ganda ng Moringa nyo nay.. so beautiful
Thank you. Excited ulit ako mavpunla nyan 😊
Oh my goshhhhhh....it's 13 February, and I have mine sprouted. Maybe indoors with aluminum foil around the containers (to reflect the sun back to the plants) will give me outstanding results, also. 🙏🙏🙏
Sounds great! so lucky you! I bet they will grow so fast for you! I saved some aluminum containers for growing my seeds soon! thank you Lady Ela!
hey I use the aluminum hack too!
I will try to grow it po
it will be fun! i have more seeds to share :-)
I really loved your video, I am going to try and grow some moringa. How do you use the clippings you to take off of them? I hear birds in the background, what do you have? My little buddy Handsome the eclectus is my joy. Can't wait to watch more videos, it totally got me in the mood to garden!
awe so happy you got inspired Amy! We have 2 budgies! The kids named them Sky and Falco! I put the clippings in soup or any dish. It is just a little strong like radish. I also have it for tea! What are you gonna plant ?
@@gardeningwithnanay Aw that is too cute! Love the names. I always heard Moringa was very nutritious so that sounds lovely. I want to try and transplant some of the wild berry bushes from our area, like Saskatoon berries, choke cherry. My parrot loves to eat the berries so I was hoping to have some of that.
@@amythegma saskatoon berries will be nice, I will be skeptical with chokecherry because they can be very well rooted and almost impossible to get rid off in the soil, they are very prolific and the more you cut them out the more they will sprout.
@@gardeningwithnanay That is a very good point and something I did not know. But it makes sense, in the wild they do multiply like crazy in the areas they are in. Might have to settle for wild picking for my wine then :)
@@amythegma I am happy you have that to enjoy with!
Uh-huh is the most 😋
Thank you for this video. I am also in 🇨🇦 and wondered if I would be able to grow these doors. How do you cook with the.? Could you share any recipes. Also would you dry the leaves and make tea?
Welcome to the channel! It's so nice to know another Canadian here! You can dry it and put in bread,pancake etc. Add to Any soup because this is almost no taste in my opinion. We love this in our sauted chicken with chayote and moringa with lots of ginger. Search for tinola recipe.
Use the leaves to cook instead of spinach.
I have mines too it is already 3 weeks old.I kept it inside our living room because ot the warm temp.
How exciting! How many did you plant?! I think I will start mine next month!
Is there a special way to prepare the leaves for can you eat them like a salad. Also can you dry and grind into power? Thanks in advance. Really enjoyed your video :D Tks
You can eat them right off of the tree.
You can definitely dry them up and have it for tea, salad or add in any soup or dish . Some even dried moringa are put into breads!
How long does it takes from the seeds to when you can harvest and eat the leafs, seeds ? Thanks great work !
7 to 8 weeks in our summer months! I am hoping you live somewhere warm so you can really grow this big!
@@gardeningwithnanay Globe Az. (12~3 had some snow and melted next day. We had 29F~36F ( night ) last week. We have 44~55F (night)/70~90F (day) all this week. Thanks again!
@@mimi4816 you do have a warm weather way more than mine! Your garden zone is 8B or 9A!
In Calgary, AB weather, which month you suggest should I start germinating moringa. Please advise.
Hi ! For me mid of May will be good , June is the best until end of July. Welcome to my channel! I hope you will learn some Alberta Gardening hack here!
Thank you very much for the tips. I got seeds already from Richter farm.
I will be starting my seeds soon in first week of May! how about you? did you plant some already?
I will start on 1st week of May as you advised.
I will also start germinating at beginning of May as per your advise.
I have some 4 foot babies and I need to trim them down and figure what I’m gonna do for the soon coming winter. It doesn’t get too cold in the Central Valley Calif but I don’t think any them to die. I may trim them down then bring them inside.
I want to make some Moringa tincture with the leaves.
Wow your gardening zone sounds promising!
how are your moringa now?
This year I started germinating moringa in Feb & kept in warm places near fireplace. It germinated quickly & transplanted in small pot. Started growing. Lets see how it grows in Cslgary, Canada.
moringa don't like to be transplanted, that could be the reason why it stunted growth, Try growing again with a bigger , longer pot where you plan to keep it longer
Hi,
Thanks for your video.
How long did it take for the roots to sprout from the seeds?
Depends on the heat of the season, in the mid of summer it only took 5-7 days here in zone 3 , What part of the world are you from?
I didn't see how deep you planted the on-week old seedling. More or less how many cm deep did you make the hole? Does it matter?
About 1.5 inches should be good 😊
rule of thumb for planting seeds is that how big your seed is how deep you cover them up, so not so deep like bulbs or corms.
So when do you start the seeds indoor in Zone 3 and you transplant the seedlings when they are 5-6 wks in a bigger pot? Do you leave it outside during summer and bring it in during winter? Thanks
Hi Danielle! I start in June or July. But starting in May should be okay. I avoid transplanting as much as possible so I just leave them in their original pot until they overgrown it because they don't like their roots disturbed. I do not bring them outside anymore to prevent bringing in some spider mites in the house or other bugs. I hope this helps. Enjoy gardening.
@@gardeningwithnanay How tall do they grow to indoors? can you keep trimming if it gets too tall? Thks
They grow 14-18 inches tall for me during the summer and I trim them for winter for abouy 10-12 inches .
@@gardeningwithnanay I appreciate you replying to my questions! Thank you!
@@danielleaf9146 you're welcome! do you plan to grow them soon?
Could you please tell me what Verma tea is
vermi-tea means vermi compost tea, from worm compost liquid or just simply dilute in water your compost from worm poops
Hi there, I just discovered you! I am in Ottawa, do you think I can start mornings seeds in February ?
No do not recommend growing it in February unless you have a grow light . I always grow mine starting June 😊
I planted mine (once the seeds started) by the window at the end of March and they’re an inch tall now as it’s April 4th today. Just keep it somewhat warm (soil approx 70 degrees give or take) Also in in the lower mainland British Columbia.
@@underwaves75 that's awesome! We are still freezing here. My indoor moringa's still dormant 😊
@@gardeningwithnanay I never knew they go dormant. Do you cut all the leaves and store the root in a box in the garage?
@@danielleaf9146 Hi! I just keep them in their pot and keep them in the house. They will freeze outside in our zone 3 climate. They do not like their roots to be disturbed.
Where from you bought the moringa seeds? Can I germinate them in Alberta in winter?
Hello! I bought mine from Amazon. Sure you can germinate with grow light. Let me know when would you try to grow moringa!

Hi! Did you find moringa seeds and planted them?
Subscribed and liked na po. Ask lng po saan nyo nabili online ang seeds? I'm from Edmonton AB. Thank you and goodluck to your channel.
Hi pp! Thanks for the support. Nabili ko po sa amazon 😊
@@gardeningwithnanay thank you...😀
@@gardeningwithnanay even yung sitaw nyo sa amazon din nabili?
@@lizbethrontal324 no po sa home depot lng po yung sitaw
You're welcome 😊
How often do you water your moringa when they go dormant?
every other week and just a cup of water
Thanks your video! Can you please tell me what month you transplanted this moringa tree? Thanks
I did them in July and August
@@gardeningwithnanay Thanks
@@mimi4816 are planting some moringa soon?
@@gardeningwithnanay I started from seeds last month 2023
@@mimi4816 wow awesome news! How exciting!
what is white stuff you usd?
it is called perlite, it helps with drainage so the roots will not rot, if perlite is not available in your area, you can use sand or gravel.
hi there! did you try to grow some?
Hi. Why do you cook your soil?
because I want to avoid indoor pest problems, I am growing these moringa indoors.
In the beginning after putting it in a dark space, how long do we keep it?
Ohh, I didn't see ahead, I got it, we're planning on planting it this season, let's see what happens 🤞🏻
I am glad you found it! Have fun gardening!
Can you show how did you prone
I will just cut it down to 12 inches or a foot long
Why do you cook the soils before using them. Thanks
I sterilize the soil because I don't want to deal with pest indoor like fungus gnat and spider mites etc
where is zone 3 in canada? nanay im trying to grow a moringa too.
In Edmonton! how's your moringa now?
@@gardeningwithnanay not doing great. im not sure if the seeds are too old but i’ll try it again
hi! how are your moringa ? I hope they are doing okay.
can you help me guys. i also like too. I want planting moringa but I do not know what kinds of seeds will buy because without here in Florida the moringa. I looking for same type from Philippines I am newly came in US fl.
are you buying the soil? cause I am curious how if, it's is grow big like tall until your waist?
Hello po! Eto po yung same seeds na ginamit ko nabili ko lang sa Amazon amzn.to/3D3Kk8u
bili lang po kayo ng potting soil sa home depot or kahit saan may tinda, maganda po weather ng Florida para sa malunggay kaya siguradong makapagpapalai po kayo !
@@gardeningwithnanay 🙂 hindi po makita. link lang ng Amazon.
@@gardeningwithnanay oo tama marami nga nagsasabi. gusto ko lang malaman ang klase ng lupa para sa 6 to 12 months old na. at klase ng buto kasi may napanuod ako yung iba mapait ang hitsura ng moringa nung lumaki ay pula ang tangkay then yung dahon green, yes tama naman green but should be green din ang stem. gusto ko lang makasiguro na tama ang seeds kasi nakakatakot di ako familiar pa sa mga halaman dito.
Hi !
Can you help me for seed's I live in Toronto
Hi Janabi! try from amazon

Where did you order seeds po? Im in UK. Thank you
Hi kabayan! Sa Amazon ko po nabili! eto po link sana makatulong sa inyo amzn.to/3YaDLIY
Hi po, did you get some seeds na po?
@@gardeningwithnanay hi po. Sa ebay na lang po ako bumili. So far okay naman moringa ko. Around 60% germinated, despite crazy weather in UK🤣🤣🤣
@@junjunborromeo yehey ayos po yan. Sana lumaki po agad at makaharvest kayo
What kind of soil did you use? Did you mix it with sand?
yes I did mix it with sand, but it gets heavy and more hassle to transplant so I prefer mixed with perlite which is lighter and more manageable.
Hi! how are you? Did you grow some moringa yet?
Pano po pag winter? Pano po sya mabubuhay..slamat
Yung malungay po ...kasi namatay po yung sa akin bago palang po magtaglamig...
Kapag winter po diligan nyo lang ng konti. Lagay nyo po sa west or south window or grow light. Mag-dormant po sya kapag very cold na. Okay lang po putulan nyo para di gaano mahirapan. Basta wag nyo itatapon yung paso kahit mukhang wala na pong buhay kasi sa loob po ay may buhay na buhay pang ugat.
@@alexanderfernandez4961 baka po masyadong malaki yung paso nyo at nabulok na ugat.
@@gardeningwithnanay maliit lng po..kaso po kasi dto mahaba winter po pero next summmer po mag try po ulit ako
Yes keep trying po. May 2 paso po ako na one year old malunggay. Survivor ng winter.
