You're such a great encourager! There is so much potential for a small backyard nursery. That's what I'm doing. I am semi retired, but next spring, I have enough to fully retire and play in the plants!!! So excited...no more bosses! 😁💜
@@MikeKincaid79 well, I've got about 2K started and should double with my cuttings this year. With my Social security, I'll be able to enjoy my life with my 2-year-old granddaughter and my soon to be other grandbaby!!! Grandmother bliss!
@@MikeKincaid79 thank you! Just bought some Clonex and ready to make cuttings of eeerrrrrrryTHANG in my yard ( and my neighbors 😂)!! I see my problem in the past is using far too large of cuttings. Thats my impatience in action I suppose or the idea that small ones won’t make it.
mike, what i said about you, its true, that nature's love you, because i read comments how you are appreciated peoples to grow his own business. ALMIGHTY BLESS YOU & YOUR LOVE ONES.
I love the pink splash weigela. It is a favorite of mine. I cut on it like mad to use for bouquets this whole season. And now I'm gonna propogate her to get more plants. Thanks!
Thank you for this one, I didn't even know what those plants were until now, I had heard you talk about them but I didn't know what they were, now that I do, I gotta find me some. They are so pretty, and I think I agree with you about liking the variegated best, those two different colors of flowers on one bush is the best, just like you, the best. Thank you again for all of your support and encouragement. 😊😊😁😁🤗🤗
I so wanna get these. They are beautiful! Was kinda glad to see your petunia plant hanging in the background. Mine is looking a bit like that. My husband was sure it was dying. When I showed him the new growth at the base of the plant he realized it was fine. I need to get some of the sand bags mixture that you suggested so I propagate it. I have regular potting soil but since you suggested the sand so it holds the moisture I will do it that way. My neighbor has some with a whole bunch of different colors and has given me the okay to take some clippings. Wish me luck!
Way kool Mike. You are an inspiration to many. Trying my hand at propagating a number of varieties of plants. Built a nearing frame and after a couple of months, a rat moved in. Doh! Had to move everything into a new frame that couldn’t be infiltrated from underneath. Hoping some will survive. Keep up the great motivational videos, we all look forward to your next one, and then the next, and next…
Haha, thanks for your support, Mike! Yeah, rats are definitely a problem. Mice are my biggest nemesis. I put down 1 inch square hardware cloth under my frame and then covered the hardware cloth with window screen material. It keeps the mice out as well as the worms and beetles. Good luck man!
Thanks for this video. I was able to follow this for some Weigela Carnavl cuttings. We live in USDA zone 6a. The cuttings have been in their original planting containers (4” pot) since planting 9-10 weeks ago and I am thinking of moving them to a 1 gallon pot for overwintering. The question I have is… the cuttings have grown very well with some of them currently around 12” high. Should I prune them back some to encourage them to bush out more or just let them continue as is and cut them back when dormant or in the spring?
I took some Weigela cuttings in early September (3 weeks ago) to be exact. I took the cuttings from this seasons new growth. The leaves are still alive and looking good, keeping humidity and all that. Just waiting to see if I get roots. Plan on checking at week 8. My question is, if I do get roots, what next for winter? I live in WV zone 6 and we get some gnarly snow and cold. Would constructing a cold frame work? This hobby is all new to me. This is actually my 3rd attempt at rooting cuttings, fingers crossed it works this time. I've been going back and watching/learning all I can from your videos so thank you for all the useful information! Used all your tips for this 3rd attempt. Rooted in a mix of play sand and all purpose sand, dipped in a rooting hormone, I think I covered everything. I just want them to live thru winter if they root.
Really cool that you're finding success. Persistence pays off. I recently did a video about overwintering rooted cuttings. Within the video, I point to a whole playlist of videos that I've done over the years that's all about overwintering rooted cuttings.

Hi Mike! I am a newbie at all this. I really liked your video! So if I transfer the cuttings to larger pots once roots are established, (it will be the end of August when this happens) do I keep the plants in pots inside over the winter and they will be ready to plant in the ground in the spring? I live in Canada and am in zone 5.
There are multiple ways you can deal with this. Here's a playlist I created that helps explain many options. Also, I have brought some plants indoors and grown them all winter long, such as petunia. Here's the playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLpmpssr45yfMtl3yav-vy1qGsTDdTVWSl.html

Brother, I’m going through my notes and rewatching some of your videos. I’m prepping to follow your process to propagate some weigela for myself. Just wanted to show some love and say thank you for all this free and valuable info again. I noticed you don’t have a weigela playlist. I’d be super interested in more on this series, for sure! Don’t get me wrong, I’m digging your orchard focus this year and don’t want to distract you. But if you get “spare time”, ya know?
Haha, I'm always looking for more video ideas. My biggest problem to getting around to all of them is that there just isn't enough time. I kind of just film what I'm feeling good about each week. I'll keep weigela in mind for future videos.
@@MikeKincaid79 I hear you, brother. For sure! I forgot to ask, is there a way to look up what plants are protected and which ones we are “legally” allowed to propagate? I’m trusting you as an authority on the variegated, but I can’t figure out Wine & Roses! (Or how to check on others)
Mike, I'm trying to root a variegated witch hazel tree (it's not patented). When I opened the shipping box one of its small branches was broken, so I clipped it off, dipped it in Hormodin 3, and stuck it into a damp growing medium, in a clear solo cup (with drain slits). I taped another clear solo cup on top to act as a dome, then put it outside in the shade. Now, I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping it will root!
Thanks so much for taking time to post this. I have a couple of these a absolutely Love them but have hard time finding them around here to plant more so this video is absolutely great to help with getting more plants from my own plants 😊 is there a special rooting soil needed for this or will the seedling soil work as well? Thanks again!!!
Great video, Mike! Now I have to find a variegated one. I have 3 “wine and roses” and you gave me some great tips on their care. One question, can you cut tips for propagation while they are blooming? Or do you wait till the blooms are done.
Great video, thanks for all the informational information!!! My question to you is that in the past with trying to propagate cuttings from different varieties of plants ( mostly hydrangeas), I do better with them rooting in water than directly into the soil from the mother plant. Can I propagate the Weigela cuttings the same way, then transport to soil after significant root growth?
I would love to see you propagate some Catalpa tree cuttings. There isn't a whole lot of videos on them. I've tried doing the solo cup setup on them and have already lost several.
@@MikeKincaid79 Yes these would be Southern Catalpa though. They don't grow as large as the Northern Catalpa. We don't get much of a winter in South Alabama. I will try this method. Thanks for the reply.
I saw a sasa'd like a large tand for both roots to make tea and for wood to chip and soak for smoking meats.rass cutting rooting in a pot! I grew up hunting and using sasafrass and even failing to transplant shoots that came up from root.

Hey! #1 Good to see you Mike! Nigella Stativa seed are very good for you! I listen to a Pakistany Dr and he was saying that his mom told him that is good for everything besides death. Thanks for sharing, always a pleasure seeing you my friend! Hugs to you and the girls🤗💜🤗 Hahaha, you said weigela! 🤣🤣🤣
Weigela....not Nigella. Easy to mistake what Mike was saying, but if you drop down the description box just below the video frame, the full title is visible. Hope you have a wonderful day.
@@chachadodds5860 I realized that as soon as I saw the plant but since I wrote the comment, I left it on, spiced it up a bit...lol🤣🤣😉 not the Mike needs any help in that department(spice)....
Mike, are your cuttings, or propagations available for sale anywhere? And can we purchase from you online, or ebay? I'm starting from scratch in a new location, Zone 7a, with only an old Siberian Elm at one end, and an old White Mulberry tree at the other. I need help filling in the landscape. Those Weigela, are beautiful. I also just retired, but really need something to bring in extra money, as SS, just doesn't go far enough. I've gone to your website; lots of great info there. Many thanks for all you do. You're a bright ray of sunshine in an uncertain world.
If I root and then plant some in my landscape will they survive the winter (zone 6B), or do I need to overwinter them? Just not sure if a plant from a summer rooted cutting will be strong enough to survive the winter a few months later? Or is it fine?
Great question! I've got an entire playlist of videos with ideas and examples of overwintering rooted cuttings. Check it out and I think they will answer your questions: th-cam.com/play/PLpmpssr45yfMtl3yav-vy1qGsTDdTVWSl.html Also, I actually experimented with this on one of my newly rooted rhododendron cuttings. Took it right out of the frame and put it in the landscape as a tiny rooted cutting. It not only survived but is now a big healthy plant. Results will vary based on the plant and condition of the cutting.
Can you do a video on Weigela problems and diseases? I have one where 3 complete branches seem to have died off from a one year old plant which was vigorous and healthy twelve months ago when I bought it and the leaves dried completely and fell off 3 or 4 whole branches and I don't know whether to take the complete branches out or not. Advice on after care of Weigela would be great Mike, thanks.
It's hard to say without more info but sometimes plants will shed a few branches or leaves if they have a lack of water. Conifers do this in the summer and it's call flagging. There could be a disease but it's hard to say without seeing it.
Love your videos Mike! I have tried everything you have taught.... I ended up changing to coco fiber as my medium... but still end up with a high percentage of rot 😢. The coco fiber seems to be better but I think here in Kentucky we just have way too much humidity in the summer months. Really would love to learn how to propagate roses etc in the winter when we have less humidity.
@@chachadodds5860 .... I actually started with vermiculite... it caused rot worse probably because it holds on to moisture even more.. was thinking maybe next just trying pure perlite. I have spent HOURS following Mike’s directions and end up with mostly rot. The few that make roots still end up turning black and dying. So severely frustrating... yet I keep doing it haha. The few successes I have had have been with longer stems with 2 liter bottles over them like Mike showed... but again... they ended up dying once I tried transplanting them. I thought maybe I might have better luck (even though it takes longer) with hardwood cuttings over winter. I am bound and determined to figure this out. 😉
@@rphjacobs9197 ha ha ha. When I read your comment it sounded so much like the way I comment I double checked your user name to make sure it wasn't one of my old comments . Your experience so closely mirrors my experience. This summer I tried Mulberry hardwood cuttings Startin June 4th . My cutting pencil diameter all rotted in builders sand . Only two of 1/2 inch thick cuttings didn't rot in builders sand . The thick cuttings didn't rot but didn't root from June 4th to July 11th . I have 3 pencil diameter Mulberry cuttings I just stuck in the soil . A combination of clay and loam soil in a heavily shaded area which have put on new growth and presumably seem to be rooting Then I have a a fence line Mulberry little tree that has 5 leaders growing out of the ground . I blocked it on with bricks to make a pot and and filled in with available soil on the spot to simulate stool bed or ground layering. And they are growing white roots . . I exposed the cambium ( green layer) applied aloe Vera gel and dusted with that worthless rooting hormone they sell at home depot and Lowes ( same formula as Clonex .03 % buytal acid) on a my cuttings . I don't understand . Everybody raves about Clonex and yet it's hormone content is the same percentage as the worthless crap I buy at the local store. Well anyhow I love your comment in that your comment reinforces my horrible experience. Cheers . Today's date is July 12th 2022
@@rphjacobs9197 Oh I started off with vermiculite as well for hardwood fig cuttings in the shoebox way that JSARCADUURA does and like you all the cutting rotted I think vermiculite blocks out the oxygen . I went to extreme length to get a moisten yet dry vermiculite mix by blotting the hand squeezed vermiculite with absorbing towels and the hardwood cuttings still rotted in 3 weeks time I don't think pure perlite is the answer either it retains too much moisture like builders sand does I thinking gravel or glass marbles may be better than sand or perlite and water only flushed every 3 to five days . Who knows
Why is it ,that after watching your video's,the sizzors come out.? Rooted some weigela last year,but haven't timed them. Yep,trimed now.More cuttings stuck. . Been over 90 here for to long.So hot. Needed the motivation today... Thanks Mike.
I’m in zone 5, where would I put the newly rooted babies during the winter? Take them in the house or leave them out in the greenhouse? Will they die or go dormant in the cold? Thanks :)
Cannot locate the Super Sprouter propagation kit. Is it still being made? If not - any recommendation for another "high hat" dome with the drainage away from the soil cells
Where do you sell all your plants? I've been newly inspired by you and had success propagating. I've enjoyed it so much and want to start producing more, but apprehensive because I'm not sure how to unload a large amount of plants.
That's the easy part. Just have a plant sale in front of your house and advertise locally on Facebook. I've sold a ton of rhododendrons wholesale to local nurseries over the years.
Placed 12 4" squares with three cu5ings each in storagebasket that drains and covered with dubbermaid three gallon conyy that has no lid fo4 perfect vented greenhouse on north steps.

Any idea why my variegated weigela would be reverting in spots to solid green foliage? I recently took some cuttings from my daughter's hydrangea. They're growing roots in their clear McDonald's cups after rooting them in water. Love propagating! Thanks for your videos!
Varigation requires certain cells in the plant stem to be carried into the new sprout cuttings generally grow. By pure luck you could get more varigation, or less. If only green cells divide and end up mothering the new sprout, then it will only be green. Never a guarantee to get a variegated plant from a variegated cutting. Temp, sun and general plant happiness can also revert varigation, however if thats the case, improving its conditions should bring it back. Juvinile leaves can also not show varigation and will pop up as leaves mature. Although specific to weigela, the lack of sun is often the cause in my exp
I always learn something new. I had never known about these plants until now. I need to find those rooting hormones. Can't seem to find them in local stores.
You can check the big box stores. If they don't have it, check your local small nurseries or small hardware stores selling plants & planting materials.
Here's my closest video to that subject: Rooting English Laurel Cuttings in a Propagation Frame: (Part 1) th-cam.com/video/2Tzgz0i9ZAM/w-d-xo.html (Part 2) th-cam.com/video/9_H4FcadqqQ/w-d-xo.html (Part 3) th-cam.com/video/JM6Qw1SiCVg/w-d-xo.html (Part 4) th-cam.com/video/1grtMNJawNI/w-d-xo.html (Part 5) th-cam.com/video/B5InqQsENrc/w-d-xo.html
I will be propagating my Weigela next year! Did you ever test out the humic acid I suggested a few months ago? Humic Acid/Humates and Fulvic Acid. Not interchangeable, but humic acid contains Fulvic acid, but not vice versa,
If the material is too fine then it can hold too much water but I use fine fir bark and there is plenty of air space between the pieces so it helps to pack it down a little. It really depends on the medium you're using. I wouldn't pack down something like peat or coco coir.
I get mine by the dump truck load at a local landscape supply business. It's a byproduct of the logging industry in my area. Here's a video about it: th-cam.com/video/RSPLOLNXTD4/w-d-xo.html
My hydrangeas have rooted well Mike, but every time I take them out the propagation box they wilt , so I put them back in and they stand tall again, what should I do? Maybe let some outside air in ??
Sounds like you aren't acclimating them. They need to transition slowly from an environment of 100% humidity to the outside air, which is around 50% more than likely. Start by just cracking the lid one day and then each day, removed it a little more, if you see them start to wilt then slow down or hit them with a spray bottle. Once they get use to less humidity, then they are fully growing on their own roots and you can remove the lid and take them out. You're on the right track, just need to do this one last step.
It's getting pretty late in the season, especially for your zone. The great news is that these plants root really well and easily as hardwood cuttings. The first weigela cuttings I ever took, many years ago, were hardwood cuttings. Wait until late winter and start cutting off pieces of branches and sticking them in soil.
Mike I’m desperate. I do sand trays under a low tree for mixed light. I do hydrangeas sooo easy. I cannot for the life of me get Cleyera to work at all. I’ve tried 40+ cuttings with different methods. Need a video!!!!
I'm not familiar with that plant but I'll keep my eyes open for one. Looks like a broad leafed evergreen shrub. Usually they are rooted as semi-hardwood cuttings in the fall, on bottom heat, but I just read that you can take them as hardwood cuttings in the late winter.
@@MikeKincaid79 I didn’t know there were white ones. I’ve had blue ones before and a pink one, but for some reason they never survive for me long term. I’m in Enumclaw, not far from you, so we have a pretty similar climate. 🤔
Mulberries are doing great, not much to update on. They are fully rooted and waiting to go dormant. Then I'll pull them apart and repot, have an update for you next year. Yes, you can use coco coir, just make sure it's not too saturated with water.
I think you'll have better results if you wait a little long and the wood is semi-firm. I have many videos on rose propagation if you search the channel and I've got another one coming out this year soon.
@@MikeKincaid79 I have 80% success with semi hardwood cuttings on the roses from your advice and the advice of Fraiser Valley rose Farm. I was just curious if it would work out with soft wood and maybe go a little faster. Thank you so much for answering my question!! And the GREAT information on propigating the roses, I used the 2 liter bottle as you did in the one video with 10 rose cuttings and I have 8 successful 😀 rose cuttings now basically small rose bushes. I took the cuttings in the beginning of June, put then on the North side of my house, I live in Upstate NY, Approximately 45min drive from Rochester NY. I'm so excited 😊 🤗 and thrilled and now have a major plant addiction and propigating is a new hobby.

Thanks Charles! Are you saying that you're looking to grow weigela as bonsai? That would be a cool idea, hadn't thought of that one. Sure would be a beautiful tree when in bloom.
@@MikeKincaid79 I'm sure going to try! I was picking out a nice Pyracantha when I spotted some potted shrubs all thrown into a pile at the edge of the nursery. That's where I found a neat Weigela florida which I'm now attempting to ground layer because the original plant has too many faults for bonsai
the tags on plants should tell you if they are a patented plant,, that is one of the first things i look for before i buy any plant,, some just have a trade marked name others have both.. hope this helps you
Weigela! Chico that takes me back. Nana's flower garden on the farm, roses, weigela, and a lot more next to the apple orchard. Picnics with the cows hanging near the fence because they knew us kids would slip them delicacies like brussels sprouts. You look a little off. Not to fear, soon enough the polar bears will be back to play with. We're dealing with clouds of mosquitoes thanks to the rains. Phoenix got it's 2nd wettest monsoon on record. Mt. Lemmon, a few miles south of here, got 11 inches from one storm. Down in Mammoth, they were packing sand in bags waiting for the river to run over the banks. It hit the top of the bank then started to subside. God had a good laugh, I guess. We're hope Nora (hurricane) brings a few inches our way, then more storms. niio, chico, walk in God's beauty

Totally inspired me to get a Weigela plant! Cheers Mike
Mike, I'm trying to root a variegated witch hazel tree (it's not patented). When I opened the shipping box one of its small branches was broken, so I clipped it off, dipped it in Hormodin 3, and stuck it into a damp growing medium, in a clear solo cup (with drain slits). I taped another clear solo cup on top to act as a dome, then put it outside in the shade. Now, I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping it will root!
Cool! I'm definitely interested in how it roots for you, Margie.
@@MikeKincaid79 Mike, I'll let you know if it's still alive next spring!
Hi Mike
Ive had anjelas (im not sure with the spelling) ive been trying to figure out how to propagate them. Youve helped alot, so thank you
You're welcome, Jonathan!
Thanks so much for taking time to post this. I have a couple of these a absolutely Love them but have hard time finding them around here to plant more so this video is absolutely great to help with getting more plants from my own plants 😊 is there a special rooting soil needed for this or will the seedling soil work as well? Thanks again!!!
Great video, Mike! Now I have to find a variegated one. I have 3 “wine and roses” and you gave me some great tips on their care. One question, can you cut tips for propagation while they are blooming? Or do you wait till the blooms are done.
Wait until the new growth is at least 3 or 4 inches long. By then, the blooms will be done.
Waooo great!!! Thanks to show us. I love all Weigela
Me too, such a nice vigorous little plant.
MIKE thanks for the tip on helping my addiction going,, question?? where did you get those trays at? just asking so i can order a few
Amazon. I put a link in the description. In fact, here it is: amzn.to/37WqHQf
@@MikeKincaid79 thank you
Great video, thanks for all the informational information!!! My question to you is that in the past with trying to propagate cuttings from different varieties of plants ( mostly hydrangeas), I do better with them rooting in water than directly into the soil from the mother plant. Can I propagate the Weigela cuttings the same way, then transport to soil after significant root growth?
I've never tried to root them in water but it sounds like the makings of a good experiment and video. May have to wait until next year though.
Old weigla he is a friend of mine. Cool video enjoyed it. Keep the videos rolling man
I'm sure that I misspelled it lol
Nope, you got it right. Love this plant. I'll have to send you some with the mulberry next year. Wonder if you can grow it there.
@@MikeKincaid79 I'm sure I can grow it with your help
Hello great videos. I love the weigela!
Ok I just bought some cutting 😂 time to grow some. Thanks Mike. 😂 keep it up man!
Awesome! Good luck, Nate.
I would love to see you propagate some Catalpa tree cuttings. There isn't a whole lot of videos on them. I've tried doing the solo cup setup on them and have already lost several.
Are you talking about Catalpa trees? I would try hardwood cuttings outdoors on bottom heat in the late winter.
@@MikeKincaid79 Yes these would be Southern Catalpa though. They don't grow as large as the Northern Catalpa. We don't get much of a winter in South Alabama. I will try this method. Thanks for the reply.
I saw a sasa'd like a large tand for both roots to make tea and for wood to chip and soak for smoking meats.rass cutting rooting in a pot! I grew up hunting and using sasafrass and even failing to transplant shoots that came up from root. I'd love to hear about any differences in technique but there's softwood growth on all of them in the forest rn so I'm going to start trying tomorrow. I
Good luck
Can't wait to root some weigela cuttings
Good luck and have fun!
Hey! #1 Good to see you Mike! Nigella Stativa seed are very good for you! I listen to a Pakistany Dr and he was saying that his mom told him that is good for everything besides death. Thanks for sharing, always a pleasure seeing you my friend! Hugs to you and the girls🤗💜🤗
Hahaha, you said weigela! 🤣🤣🤣
Weigela....not Nigella. Easy to mistake what Mike was saying, but if you drop down the description box just below the video frame, the full title is visible.
Hope you have a wonderful day.
LOL, sometimes I talk so fast that I can't understand what I'm saying.
As soon as I saw the plant I knew but I paused to write so I don't miss anything....lol I could have deleted it but I thought was funny!
@@chachadodds5860 I realized that as soon as I saw the plant but since I wrote the comment, I left it on, spiced it up a bit...lol🤣🤣😉 not the Mike needs any help in that department(spice)....
Mike, are your cuttings, or propagations available for sale anywhere? And can we purchase from you online, or ebay?
I'm starting from scratch in a new location, Zone 7a, with only an old Siberian Elm at one end, and an old White Mulberry tree at the other. I need help filling in the landscape. Those Weigela, are beautiful.
I also just retired, but really need something to bring in extra money, as SS, just doesn't go far enough. I've gone to your website; lots of great info there.
Many thanks for all you do. You're a bright ray of sunshine in an uncertain world.
Thanks so much! I don't have an official place that I sell plants but occasionally post them on Ebay or Figbid.com
If I root and then plant some in my landscape will they survive the winter (zone 6B), or do I need to overwinter them? Just not sure if a plant from a summer rooted cutting will be strong enough to survive the winter a few months later? Or is it fine?
Great question! I've got an entire playlist of videos with ideas and examples of overwintering rooted cuttings. Check it out and I think they will answer your questions: th-cam.com/play/PLpmpssr45yfMtl3yav-vy1qGsTDdTVWSl.html Also, I actually experimented with this on one of my newly rooted rhododendron cuttings. Took it right out of the frame and put it in the landscape as a tiny rooted cutting. It not only survived but is now a big healthy plant. Results will vary based on the plant and condition of the cutting.
Can you do a video on Weigela problems and diseases? I have one where 3 complete branches seem to have died off from a one year old plant which was vigorous and healthy twelve months ago when I bought it and the leaves dried completely and fell off 3 or 4 whole branches and I don't know whether to take the complete branches out or not. Advice on after care of Weigela would be great Mike, thanks.
It's hard to say without more info but sometimes plants will shed a few branches or leaves if they have a lack of water. Conifers do this in the summer and it's call flagging. There could be a disease but it's hard to say without seeing it.
Love your videos Mike! I have tried everything you have taught.... I ended up changing to coco fiber as my medium... but still end up with a high percentage of rot 😢. The coco fiber seems to be better but I think here in Kentucky we just have way too much humidity in the summer months. Really would love to learn how to propagate roses etc in the winter when we have less humidity.
Try using Vermiculite; see if that makes a positive difference for you.
I'll have to work on some rose hardwood cutting videos.
@@chachadodds5860 .... I actually started with vermiculite... it caused rot worse probably because it holds on to moisture even more.. was thinking maybe next just trying pure perlite. I have spent HOURS following Mike’s directions and end up with mostly rot. The few that make roots still end up turning black and dying. So severely frustrating... yet I keep doing it haha. The few successes I have had have been with longer stems with 2 liter bottles over them like Mike showed... but again... they ended up dying once I tried transplanting them. I thought maybe I might have better luck (even though it takes longer) with hardwood cuttings over winter. I am bound and determined to figure this out. 😉
@@rphjacobs9197 ha ha ha. When I read your comment it sounded so much like the way I comment I double checked your user name to make sure it wasn't one of my old comments .
Your experience so closely mirrors my experience.
This summer I tried Mulberry hardwood cuttings Startin June 4th .
My cutting pencil diameter all rotted in builders sand . Only two of 1/2 inch thick cuttings didn't rot in builders sand . The thick cuttings didn't rot but didn't root from June 4th to July 11th .
I have 3 pencil diameter Mulberry cuttings I just stuck in the soil . A combination of clay and loam soil in a heavily shaded area which have put on new growth and presumably seem to be rooting
Then I have a a fence line Mulberry little tree that has 5 leaders growing out of the ground . I blocked it on with bricks to make a pot and and filled in with available soil on the spot to simulate stool bed or ground layering. And they are growing white roots . . I exposed the cambium ( green layer) applied aloe Vera gel and dusted with that worthless rooting hormone they sell at home depot and Lowes ( same formula as Clonex .03 % buytal acid) on a my cuttings .
I don't understand . Everybody raves about Clonex and yet it's hormone content is the same percentage as the worthless crap I buy at the local store.
Well anyhow I love your comment in that your comment reinforces my horrible experience. Cheers .

Oh I started off with vermiculite as well for hardwood fig cuttings in the shoebox way that JSARCADUURA does and like you all the cutting rotted I think vermiculite blocks out the oxygen . I went to extreme length to get a moisten yet dry vermiculite mix by blotting the hand squeezed vermiculite with absorbing towels and the hardwood cuttings still rotted in 3 weeks time
I don't think pure perlite is the answer either it retains too much moisture like builders sand does
I thinking gravel or glass marbles may be better than sand or perlite and water only flushed every 3 to five days . Who knows
Why is it ,that after watching your video's,the sizzors come out.? Rooted some weigela last year,but haven't timed them. Yep,trimed now.More cuttings stuck. . Been over 90 here for to long.So hot. Needed the motivation today... Thanks Mike.
Happy to motivate. I feel like I need some of my own motivation. Haven't gotten a single rhododendron cuttings stuck yet this year.
How you use mist spray in your hot house I enjoy watching you in learn alot
I hand water all my plants with a watering wand.
I’m in zone 5, where would I put the newly rooted babies during the winter? Take them in the house or leave them out in the greenhouse? Will they die or go dormant in the cold? Thanks :)
I've got a whole playlist of overwintering rooted cuttings: th-cam.com/play/PLpmpssr45yfMtl3yav-vy1qGsTDdTVWSl.html
Cannot locate the Super Sprouter propagation kit. Is it still being made? If not - any recommendation for another "high hat" dome with the drainage away from the soil cells
I bet they’re great for wind resistance and moisture retention for other plants and trees.
Round them ‘bout‼️
Definitely a nice border shrub that will do exactly what you described.
Where do you sell all your plants? I've been newly inspired by you and had success propagating. I've enjoyed it so much and want to start producing more, but apprehensive because I'm not sure how to unload a large amount of plants.
That's the easy part. Just have a plant sale in front of your house and advertise locally on Facebook. I've sold a ton of rhododendrons wholesale to local nurseries over the years.
Placed 12 4" squares with three cu5ings each in storagebasket that drains and covered with dubbermaid three gallon conyy that has no lid fo4 perfect vented greenhouse on north steps.

Any idea why my variegated weigela would be reverting in spots to solid green foliage? I recently took some cuttings from my daughter's hydrangea. They're growing roots in their clear McDonald's cups after rooting them in water. Love propagating! Thanks for your videos!
Varigation requires certain cells in the plant stem to be carried into the new sprout cuttings generally grow. By pure luck you could get more varigation, or less. If only green cells divide and end up mothering the new sprout, then it will only be green. Never a guarantee to get a variegated plant from a variegated cutting. Temp, sun and general plant happiness can also revert varigation, however if thats the case, improving its conditions should bring it back. Juvinile leaves can also not show varigation and will pop up as leaves mature. Although specific to weigela, the lack of sun is often the cause in my exp
After rooted can we lived outside for the winter?
The 2g pot could we planted in the autumn? Thanks fantastic videos always 👍
Yes, these weigela are tough and will take really cold temps, even as cuttings.
I always learn something new. I had never known about these plants until now. I need to find those rooting hormones. Can't seem to find them in local stores.
I get most of my rooting hormones on Amazon.
You can check the big box stores. If they don't have it, check your local small nurseries or small hardware stores selling plants & planting materials.
Fantastic video!!!

Did you ever test out the humic acid I suggested a few months ago?
Humic Acid/Humates and Fulvic Acid. Not interchangeable, but humic acid contains Fulvic acid, but not vice versa,
Not yet, but keeping it in mind.
I also use wicking tubs and bucket
Yes, those work great! I put pots of figs in a bucket and kept a couple inches of water in the bottom all summer. Best growth I've ever seen on figs.
Noticed you are packing the cuttings in when you stick them, does that help rooting? Id think it might limit O2 and encourage rot....
If the material is too fine then it can hold too much water but I use fine fir bark and there is plenty of air space between the pieces so it helps to pack it down a little. It really depends on the medium you're using. I wouldn't pack down something like peat or coco coir.
Hello Mike, what is fine fir bark & where can I buy this?? I live in Michigan, sawmills??
I get mine by the dump truck load at a local landscape supply business. It's a byproduct of the logging industry in my area. Here's a video about it: th-cam.com/video/RSPLOLNXTD4/w-d-xo.html
My hydrangeas have rooted well Mike, but every time I take them out the propagation box they wilt , so I put them back in and they stand tall again, what should I do? Maybe let some outside air in ??
Sounds like you aren't acclimating them. They need to transition slowly from an environment of 100% humidity to the outside air, which is around 50% more than likely. Start by just cracking the lid one day and then each day, removed it a little more, if you see them start to wilt then slow down or hit them with a spray bottle. Once they get use to less humidity, then they are fully growing on their own roots and you can remove the lid and take them out. You're on the right track, just need to do this one last step.
@@MikeKincaid79 thanks Mike for your fast reply, I’ve got this far down to your great videos, I’ll do exactly as you say, ! 👍 .💙 from Glasgow.cheers 🍺
I'm in zone 5b Sept looking good and our typical first frost oct15 . If I go start tomorrow am I too late to the party? 🤞🏻
It's getting pretty late in the season, especially for your zone. The great news is that these plants root really well and easily as hardwood cuttings. The first weigela cuttings I ever took, many years ago, were hardwood cuttings. Wait until late winter and start cutting off pieces of branches and sticking them in soil.
They are starting to shoot out, making all new leaves after blooming. It's scorching hot outside, when can I prune them best?
You can prune them anything through the summer and they'll just send out new growth and get thicker.
Mike I’m desperate. I do sand trays under a low tree for mixed light. I do hydrangeas sooo easy. I cannot for the life of me get Cleyera to work at all. I’ve tried 40+ cuttings with different methods. Need a video!!!!
I'm not familiar with that plant but I'll keep my eyes open for one. Looks like a broad leafed evergreen shrub. Usually they are rooted as semi-hardwood cuttings in the fall, on bottom heat, but I just read that you can take them as hardwood cuttings in the late winter.
Trying this today!
Have fun Beth!
When to water them after place cuttings please let me know my cuttings getting dry from upper parts please guide me dear thanks
You shouldn't have to water them if they are softwood cuttings. Make sure you have some sort of covering over them to keep humidity high.
I didn't see what rooting medium you are using? Can you please let me know? Thanks!
I used finely ground fir tree bark.
@@MikeKincaid79 thank you! I just found your video on different substrates to use. Really helpful!
Mike, what is that stock with white flowers by your left elbow?
Delphinium! Absolutely beautiful flowering perennial. This variety is pure white and my favorite.
@@MikeKincaid79 I didn’t know there were white ones. I’ve had blue ones before and a pink one, but for some reason they never survive for me long term. I’m in Enumclaw, not far from you, so we have a pretty similar climate. 🤔
Hey dude. Can I use coco coir instead of fur bark? Can you explain what humic acid is and what it does ? How are the mulberries waiting for an update.
Mulberries are doing great, not much to update on. They are fully rooted and waiting to go dormant. Then I'll pull them apart and repot, have an update for you next year. Yes, you can use coco coir, just make sure it's not too saturated with water.
If soaked soil encourages fungi and death of cuttings, What is the difference between rooting cuttings in water and soaked soil medium?
I answered this in a video, just can’t remember which one. It has to do with the type of plant and aerobic vs anaerobic bacteria
I just watched your fingers accident video! Good to see you are back to your old self!🥰
Yes, very good to be healed up.
Mike can you do soft cuttings on roses?
I think you'll have better results if you wait a little long and the wood is semi-firm. I have many videos on rose propagation if you search the channel and I've got another one coming out this year soon.
@@MikeKincaid79 I have 80% success with semi hardwood cuttings on the roses from your advice and the advice of Fraiser Valley rose Farm. I was just curious if it would work out with soft wood and maybe go a little faster.
Thank you so much for answering my question!! And the GREAT information on propigating the roses, I used the 2 liter bottle as you did in the one video with 10 rose cuttings and I have 8 successful 😀 rose cuttings now basically small rose bushes. I took the cuttings in the beginning of June, put then on the North side of my house, I live in Upstate NY, Approximately 45min drive from Rochester NY.
I'm so excited 😊 🤗 and thrilled and now have a major plant addiction and propigating is a new hobby.

Where does one purchase the My Monet Sunset’ Weigela??
Not sure off the top of my head but if it’s patented then it might be hard to find until spring. I’d start on Etsy or EBay.
@@MikeKincaid79 okay thanks anyway. You are ly NY as I don't think any nursery in Nova Scotia will allow you to take clippings.

Thanks Charles! Are you saying that you're looking to grow weigela as bonsai? That would be a cool idea, hadn't thought of that one. Sure would be a beautiful tree when in bloom.
@@MikeKincaid79 I'm sure going to try! I was picking out a nice Pyracantha when I spotted some potted shrubs all thrown into a pile at the edge of the nursery. That's where I found a neat Weigela florida which I'm now attempting to ground layer because the original plant has too many faults for bonsai
@@charlesoconnor7142 I'll bet it will layer really easily for you. Once planted, these weigela grow roots like crazy and are tough little plants.
Do you have a list of patented plants that is illegal to propagate? Its scarey to think of selling if illegal to do so.
the tags on plants should tell you if they are a patented plant,, that is one of the first things i look for before i buy any plant,, some just have a trade marked name others have both.. hope this helps you
Like yooper mann said, check the tags. You can do some research online as well.
Weigela! Chico that takes me back. Nana's flower garden on the farm, roses, weigela, and a lot more next to the apple orchard. Picnics with the cows hanging near the fence because they knew us kids would slip them delicacies like brussels sprouts.
You look a little off. Not to fear, soon enough the polar bears will be back to play with.
We're dealing with clouds of mosquitoes thanks to the rains. Phoenix got it's 2nd wettest monsoon on record. Mt. Lemmon, a few miles south of here, got 11 inches from one storm. Down in Mammoth, they were packing sand in bags waiting for the river to run over the banks. It hit the top of the bank then started to subside. God had a good laugh, I guess. We're hope Nora (hurricane) brings a few inches our way, then more storms. niio, chico, walk in God's beauty

I tried to do it in soil in a plastic container in my house and they didnt root. some stuff looked moldy. what was i doing wrong? room has indirect light and has been mid to low 70 degrees
Always use an inert medium for rooting cuttings, never potting soil or dirt.

I’ve read that you can use saliva as a rooting hormone. Have you tried this or have any videos about this? I’m curious if it’s true.
