      What about hydrangeas ? Lime light. I took some cuttings off of this women’s tree 🌳 bush. It looks like a tree bush. Anyways I did a video of her gorgeous hydrangeas limelight hydrangeas. Now I waited to long and I’m going to have to ask her if I can get some more ? Because I thought 💭 I was going to cut them but stupid poison ☠️ ivy came along. Now they are dead 💀. I need to do that. I’ll take her a gift for doing this and I’ll take her some day lilies roots from my yard.

    I ordered 6 blackberry bushes last year from an online site. Only 4 survived and only two are really thriving. I went back to the site where I ordered them and they no longer have the ones I ordered. What they do have is much more expensive. I never thought I could so easily propagate my own from what I already have established! Brilliant! Looks so easy! Thank you!

    • @Darthdoodoo

      They are incredible easy to propagate. Ive had a 3ft cane break off and i just buried it just under the soil in total shade with only a few tiny leaves sticking out of the soil and then covered it in wood chips and watered heavily and it will just shoot roots out of the stem so you will have a few different places where roots will grow along the long cane so u can even cut those apart to get more plants.

    Great video, and I agree that is the way to go!!!! I had 10 blackberries plants and at the end of the first year, I put all of the runners in pots and the next spring I had 80 rooted plants. The first year vines are close to the ground and wide, so propagation is ideal.
    Triple Crown produces longer vines and this makes propagating much easier compared to the more upright blackberry versions.

My peach is gone now but I sure harvested off it for 18 years and the squirrels planted 2 peach in the corner of my garden I've now I have triple black raspberries,rhubarb,black berries,and also have cherry bushes.

  • @SmokeyAndTheBud
    @SmokeyAndTheBud 2 роки тому +1

    i did try this method, but with high winds in my area, after two wweks, the apache wasnt succesful in rooting. ive heard of using spaghnum moss as a high success rate for all cuttings and i also have rooting hormones, which i didnt use last time.
    as i said high winds really dont make it easy to propogate cuttings this way. 40 mph gusts pull the plant out and rip any would be roots. my plan is to use spagnum moss, in a small bucket, with the tip deleafed and cut down the middle, then swirled in rooting hormone, and finally anchored in wet spagnum moss.
    seems like air layering might work too. it involves all those steps, except the plant can sway in the wind naturally. it also seems like making one slice through the middle of the soon to be root area increases success rates.

    How does your triple crown do as far as spreading under the ground.? I know people warn me be careful because they spread but I bet they are thinking of the one with the thorns , but I was thinking the thornless one might not be as aggressive as shooting those runners under the ground to places where you don't want it. Does yours stay in his space pretty good? of course I know you get the ones on the top but I'm talking about a
    the ones underground, those are the ones that can be a problem

    And here I just hammer a concrete stake into my clay soil and drop a cutting in. Other than a few which didn't make it when I forgot to water they all grew into giant bushes.

    • @savvydirtfarmer

      Very easy to root. The difference is I need mine to be in pots so I can sell them. I'm not interested in growing giant bushes. I'm interested in selling small plants to someone else who will grow them into giant bushes.

      Blackberry cuttings can be rooted under mist like hydrangeas and hundreds of other plants. I've not had a great success rate doing it though. So, I do them this way, which works every time. But if you want real numbers (thousands), figuring them out under mist is the way to go.

    My five year old triple crown blackberry bush yielded almost 20 lbs of berries this year. Now we are selling our home and I don’t have enough time to use this method, plus temperatures are starting to drop in Vermont. Do you think I could successfully dig a few of them up with their roots and cut them away from the mother plant without killing them?

    • @savvydirtfarmer
      @savvydirtfarmer  2 роки тому +2

      That should work. Also, once they are dormant (maybe they already are in your area??), you can cut off this year's growth into sticks, 6-12" long, and stick them in the ground or into potting soil and they will root as well.

      No idea. Your canes are black BEFORE you place the tips in soil? This only works with current season, new growth. If the cane is black, could it be last year's cane? If the plants are actively growing and healthy, this should work with any blackberry, hot weather or not.
