And when I take cuttings I soak them under water with a little H2O2 (peroxide) to sterilize it just in case there' was any mold hitching a ride on the bark of the branches

Yeap. Such videos are pretty much useless without an update. No update on this one, so there's that.

They say there is a video showing it, but I don't see it anywhere. Unfortunately rooting persimmon cuttings is something people often claim, but don't show because it is not very (if ever) successful. Same with Pawpaws and a lot of nut trees...

No surprise, since rooting persimmons is pretty close to impossible. People post these videos without showing results and talk about it as if it is a sure thing.

@@GardeningwithZiggy I totally agree. Based on what I experienced, it works on grapes, mulberry, plum, etc but not on persimmons. Mulberry (dwarf) tree is the easiest one to propagate. I made a lot of them before and was quite successful. Gave most of them away to friends and my wife's co-workers. They were so happy because the tree produces a lot of fruits similar to blackberries. Fruits were smaller and sweet.

Actually the beds are called berms (the raised portion) and the swale is the depression on the up hill side of the berm. Ours were placed on contour to slow water going down our sloped property and help sink it into the ground!

So the reason it does this is because gelatins rapidly denature or “break” when held above 212 degrees for any length of time. Pressure canning, by definition, holds the contents above 212 for the length of the process time to guarantee sterilization.

Hey Rick, we do not water. The row cover we use is water permeable and so nature does it for us.

you can do different methods by air root propagation. on a mature tree. find a suitable Y-branch, prefer a new branch coming off the matured branch. cut around the branch outer layer 2" in length. use a round plastic water bottle, cut it in half, cut off the neck, fill the bottle with wetted compose, tie the bottle very tight. wrap alum foil around it to keep out light and heat. the main branch will supply the nutrient as the rooting propagation takes place. it will take at least 6-10 months to see the roots sprouting when removing the alum foil. check frequently for rooting progress and cover each time. when the roots get thicker, you cut the end off the main branch at the Y junction. apply water at all times since the root is very tender. create a large ball shape compose of potato sackcloth or any thick cloth that will hold moisture. find a good drainage area to transplant the new plant. add root hormone to prevent root shock. persimmon tree requires frequent water. hope this will help those newbies. you can do this on other fruit trees as well.

We order online from small nurseries or from local places

That's crazy expensive! I live in the UK, and I bought two fruit trees for £12 which is about 15$

starting from seed takes forever. also you never know what type persimmon from the seed. once the cutting takes root, will take at least three years. following year will increase more, depends how you maintain it. do not allow water set in root area. should have proper drainage. use compose mixed with dirt 1 to 1. i uses cow manure already mixed with compose or chicken manure with 70% dirt 1% chicken manure. chicken manure can burn the root. i would not use chicken manure until matures 1 to 2 years old. i bought one that was just a a year old. takes another year for the plant to migrant to the new soil. the third year, few fruits. some years may get less bc the rain or lack of it. i did start many cutting from a mature tree. once the cutting is cut, keep it wet in a newspaper. i took a main branch and divide many cuttings that barely shown budding. cutting should be about 18" length. before insert into a sandy loom soil pot, use a stick to make hole to insert the cutting so the sand will not wipe off the aloe vera sap. smear the cutting 4-6" from the ground end with aloe vera. you can buy this plant leave in walmart garden/veggie section. do not disturb the cutting while waiting for the buds to develope with leaves. to avoid breaking the new rooting, best to start the cutting in a paper pot or pint size/qt styrofoam cup with holes at the bottom to allow water to drain off the pot.. when the green leaves showing, transplant the leaves cutting WITH the pot into the ground when the spring weather is warm. before putting the pot into the ground, make multiple holes around the pot side bottom half, this way you are not disturbing the rooting. the cutting rooting will work their ways into the outer pot as the plant gets more mature and taking hold to the outer surrounding. use root hormone with water once the cutting is transplanted. i live in northern calif great for persimmon growth. don't over water young plant and a good runoff. one extra precaution. persimmon roots running every which way, plant it away from the water pipe/sewage pipe. i would trim the top off branch to keep it manageable once reach maturative. persimmon can grow up to 10-15 feet. i will sell cutting once buds show on cutting. look for eBay under FIRESIDEVARIEITES if you interested in buying. not sure the price, depends on the competition.

I forgot to mention the cutting is from the mature FUYU persimmon.

from seeds almost 8 years in Japan

if you go my previous comment, i do not remove the cutting from the pot once the green leaves developing. the cutting starts in a sandy soil so it can take root easily. once the green leaves showing, it still needs time for the rooting to develop. this is why there is no way to check the root is strong enough. i use the thick pint size pot with bottom hole for water drainage. when the buds turn to green leaves, it still not rooting, the leaves will eventually allow the root spout at few months. what i did, not to disturb the rooting process is to make holes at the bottom half of the pot before transplant to the ground with the pot. the root will eventually develop to penetrate the paper pot. that's why i use sandy soil so the root can develop easily. also the root will maintain its sandy soil environment when transplant. after transplanting, use root hormone dilute with water per instruction. i hope this solve your mystery why the cutting leaves fall off

No. It doesn't work with these either.
