I always take my cuttings and plant them then put the pot in a clear plastic bag. Mist inside the bag and tie a knot at the top and sit in the shade under the front porch. Works every time. Not just blackberries, pretty much everything... Apple, pear, peach ECT.
That's a great idea!
Gonna have to try it
😎👍🏻
On figs instead of rooting hormone I use a mixture of cinnamon and honey. Just mix it together and rub it on the rooting area. Works almost every time. Would probably work on any cuttings. I currently have five fig cuttings in pots and all five took root.
Great tip! Thanks.
I've had great success propagating cuttings by floating styrofoam in a fish tank. Stick the cutting in so the bottom hangs into the water and the bubbles from the air pump will make it root. I learned that trick many years ago surfing the web and stumbled across a web page that showed this method. It's worked great for green cuttings, not hardwood cuttings. I add a little bit of rabbit poo to the water to feed the new roots.
Hmmm.... I might have to try that... thanks!
Works even better if you use a stocked freshwater fish tank
Gloria a ti,señor,por todo/ Viva Christo Rey
Amen! 😊
I just recently started propagating my figs in the summer. Using the suckers putting them in coco coir (damp) and a 2liter bottle for a humidity dome. Leaves stay perked up no wilting, keeping them on the porch indirect sunlight.
No rooting hormone used
Sounds like a great idea. Thanks for sharing!
I stuck about half a dozen or so pruned tips of my blackberries in the soil in spring and I estimate at least half have rooted and are growing leaves
You bet!
I've done that when I grew in the soil, but haven't done it in containers.
I might try that again, though.
Have you tried cutting into the stem, but leaving it attached, then packing some peat moss/potting soil around it, then wrapping it in a plastic pop bottle or plastic bag and tape till it produces roots. Leadfarmer73 does something similar to that on his trees. I think he's in the Carolinas or Georgia.
I did that (air layering) on fig trees and it worked great.
I haven't done it on blackberries... yet 😀
@@BIGALTX thank you. I couldn't remember what it was called!
Have you ever tried Propagation from roots? When I received my Prime Ark Freedoms they sent me root clippings. I Buried them in pots and it took a bit but I had a 90% success rate. I have also dug up roots and let them grow from the sides until they became a plant and cut them off and transplanted them with their root system. Its just a thought, might be a fun project for you since you still have some in a pot.
Hi, what does this mean: "...let them grow from the sides..." I can't visualize what you mean, thanks!
The little shoots _(or leaves)_ that grow from the nodes *above* the soil.
The roots will grow from the nodes *_under_* the soil.
I can’t wait to start growing raspberries and blackberries! Thank you for this video ❤️
You are so welcome!
I would likely drip the entire above ground portion in my wax pot. That will produce a good seal and once the plant starts growing it it break off. Maybe the tape will work.
Many take a large plastic pop bottle and cut the upper half off and put the inverted bottom over the upright shoots to seal in all moisture. A mist chamber is what it is. You also need a shade cloth until the plant roots. You likely want only the minimal leaf surface area until the plant roots.
Great tips.
Putting a pop bottle on top is a good idea.
Good vid T.P., thanks. Eager to see results.
You and me both!
Ever thought of dipping the top cut in wax to seal it,I am fixing to try it.If doesn't work oh wale......I rooted a bunch of Poncas 3 weeks ago,the leaves are still green so far.
I put mineral oil on top of the cuttings, I put grafting tape around the cuttings, and it didn’t seem to help.
Right now I am experimenting with something and will show it in a few weeks if I am successful at it.
Let me know how your Poncas do.
I have not tried this but my granny used to. To prevent drying out, she would drip some hot wax on a tin, then just a second before it went solid she dipped the nonrooting end into that wax. Beeswax is what I think she used.
I have heard of that method. Sounds like a good way to keep them from drying out.
Thanks!
I live in Dallas County and I've had good luck using Parafilm. I find it a bit easier to work with plus you can wrap over the nodes and the bud will breakthrough the tape. I reckon if grafting tape works for you then don't fix what ain't broke. Good Luck!
Even if it's wrapped around the bud, it will break through?
@@BIGALTX Yes! It's a wax type tape. You stretch it as you wrap the cutting. There's also no need to remove it because it biodegrades over time. It has made grafting a lot easier too. It was a game changer for me.
Thank you
You're welcome
Can we talk about your black planter bag containers with the serged ends? Where did you get those?
I think you're probably talking about these... 2 different brands:

Get an old fish tank (large) the put the plants inside with 1/4 inch water on the bottom. Seal the top with plastic wrap, no direct sun light and leave the cuttings inside for ten days or until you see roots forming on the cuttings. This is what I use to keep them from wilting, 40 gallon fish tank & plastic over the top.
Thanks for the tips!
@@BIGALTX Just another idea... great video tips back at ya.🙂
Here in South Georgia went to Lowes store worker was trimming blackberries he was throwing the cutting away in the bin next to him I asked if I can take them he said help yourself, btw these where in the hot sun in Mid September so got home put them in my rain barrel so they perk back up, same day got bout 39 cuttings 6 to 8 inches long, fast Forward to Now Oct 27 got only 14 with new shoots. Just lucked out that day getting those cuttings. Three varieties Lowes had Osage, Travelers and sweetie pie so I have know idea which one.
Those are good ones, so you should be OK... good score :)
I have No idea what my problem is. I have tried everything you have said & failed on everyone but one. I started in spring. I ordered some cutting from a place on the East
coast that were sent rapped with wetted paper towels around the roots should have
Spouted & put the in wetted sand as many do. In a pvc transparent container with a lid
so to keep the moisture in. Opened them ever so often to let fresh air in. They all turned
Black & died. I live in Okla & you know how hot it has been this summer. So I kept them in the house. I figure next spring I will just bite the bullet & but some two year old plants &
Hope for the best. Even the wild blackberries died here in eastern okla this year. Normally
We have them growing all around us. I,m really sick & tired of this.
I know sometimes it’s expensive to buy plants, but it’s always best because you’re getting a two-year Headstart on your cuttings.
My motto has always been get the biggest tree or plant that you can possibly afford. Your payoff will be much earlier.
Best to make a hole before you put in soil ,otherwise the dip and grow may wipe of.
True, but the dip and grow is less likely to wipe off than a powder. That’s the main reason I use a liquid. I think it soaks in pretty good.
Saw a guy's video where he put a pop bottle over the cuttings to retain the humidity?
I think that's what I'm going to do next time.
Thanks!
I got some to root in the filtration system of a fish tank. 2 out of 3 that's not nearly enough for a true test.
Sounds pretty good, even if a small trial...
@@texasprepper2 I gotta get me some going we moved again. I dug up some from my original property that I still own.
Regretting selling the 2nd to move this time.
You don’t want the plant budding like that with buds started growing already its concentrating on budding not rooting right now thats why to clone you want to wait till right after its done flowering or fruiting to clone
Great tip… Thanks!
I'd like to start growing blackberries. Can they be planted in the fall or could I even start some now?
It's too hot (at least in TX) to plant them now.
I would wait till fall.
In the cold north, I would wait till spring.
@@BIGALTX I'm in Kentucky so I'll probably plant in the fall. You sure know how to grow em. Thanks for responding!
WELL NOW;;;;THAT'S INTERESTING;;;;LOL;;;;;I BE HAVIN ABOUT 10% luck with summer prop plants;;;;lol;;;;;no more tricyle motors fir me either;;;lol;;;;like them gro bags 1 gal;;;haven't tried;;;my success with the large was a disaster the first year;;;dried out to quick;;;then built a rack and coverd with plastic ;;;;made a resivoir and worked fine;;;;lol;;;;thumbs up
You gotta have something *under* them to catch the water, or they will dry out *fast* .
does tip layering work in the summer and whats the success rate
Actually, tip layering is the only way that I would propagate in the summer. It works really well. Propagation from cuttings is not very successful in the summer. Just too hot.
I wonder if cellophane would work just as well or better .
Hmmm.... it might.
This seems to be very similar.
When do you start your onions and garlic in Texas
Garlic in October or November.
Some start onions in December. You can do that if you can find some onion sets, or wait till February.
@@BIGALTX I’m starting with onions from seeds
Then I would say mid Oct or late Nov (if you're in the south)
@@BIGALTX I’m in Southeast Texas thanks
Where is the follow up video. Did they root? I'm trying to tip layer with zero success. I also tried soil and water rooting with the same results. They always turn black.
This is an older video so I really don’t remember that exact propagation attempt. However, tip rooting usually works very, very well.
I think I always have my best success rate when I tip root.
@@BIGALTX - Unfortunately, it didn't work for me in Louisiana. I guess I'll try again.
@@candyman5749
Summer is a TERRIBLE time to propagate in the south... no matter what method you use.
I like to do it in fall/winter
Find New growths towards the bottom and train it while it's limber to grow sideways, once it's far enough - add in a small container of soil and encourage it into the container, it will become an offshoot that will establish Roots and you can safely cut off. I hope this makes sense.
It does.
I've been thinking about doing that.
Might try it... thanks!
@@BIGALTX ... You're most welcome. Please update us on the results. Thanks in advance.
Can you please provide a link to the follow-up video and results of this method? I am interested in getting Prime Arks, and propagating. Unfortunately UA-cam stopped the sort by date feature, no longer easy to find follow ups. Thank you.
I'm not even going to search for it because summer is not a good time, and I assume this attempt was not a success either
I've even tried dong them INDOORS in the summer with no success
Fall / Winter is the best time for propagating
Hope that helps
alan
@texasprepper2 Thank you, yes.
Why so many shoots in one container? What would be the minimum do you think? Thanks.
Just saving space.
I always propagate in numbers.
They separate real easy when the time comes to repot
@@BIGALTX Great to know, thank you sir.
Why do you use the tape at the top?
And attempt to keep the cuttings, moist and viable. It was not successful as I recall.
Hi! So I got the DIP'NGROW to use for the first time. Different mixing ratios for Hardwood to Softwood. What did you use as your ratio or what do you consider the blackberries to be?
They are softwood.
I only used about 1/16" of DNG in the measurer and added water to almost full
So how long are you going to wait until you check for roots? I made a terrarium out of a gallon water jug and put the cuttings in there a week and a half ago. The sprouts at the nodes are still green and beautiful. I should be able to see roots when they are there through the clear plastic. Just curious about how long?
@@franfransen7350
It usually takes several weeks.
Having a transparent container makes it very easy to look for roots.
Don't pull on the cuttings. The roots are very fine and can break off easily.
Be patient.
Truth be told... none of these made it... but I have some done in a different way that are showing some promise.
I'll try to have a video up next week showing what's going on
Oct 5 I also put few cuttings in a vase of water used a sandwich bag over it with rubber band around it so far I have new shoots but no roots in the water guess gonna take little longer, tried another one on Oct 15 with node area scaped off see if the roots develop faster, longer stem no bag cover, notice no shoots yet.
Let me know how it goes :)
How did this work out for you?
I have propagated many times over the years, so I don't remember the % of success in this particular video.
I will say that summer, at least in TX, is not a good time to propagate.
The % is very bad or nill.
Most times I have a 50% or better success rate (in fall and winter)
How long does it take to root blackberries with rooting hormones. They can root without it in about a month according to some other videos I watched. Is it faster with the hormones? I have some that I bought that have almost no roots. I want to use hormones to speed up the process because spring will be over in less then 2 weeks
Well, it takes more than a few weeks
I usually wait a few months to check the roots.
THEN I plant them in pots to let the roots get even bigger
THEN I would plant them in the fall (in the south) or spring (in the north)
@@BIGALTX Noted, thank you.
