Thank you for the video! I started growing trees and bushes a couple years ago and it’s definitely a great business to start. I started out growing plants for my 10 acres of treeless property. I couldn’t afford the hundreds of trees and bushes I wanted to plant so I bought some seeds and found some plants to take cuttings from. After a year or so people started asking if I would sell them, so I did. How much money you can make depends on how much your willing to put in. The sky really is the limit.
I grew about 60 milkweed plants just to give away. I got two caterpillars after a week! It cost me $5. from seeds. Also I grew coleus and all the seeds germinated , got over a hundred.
Thanks Mike from Ireland. I started this year propagating from one of your videos and have weeping willow and grape vines going well so far In my glasshouse I just erected this year.
Good to see you back on UA-cam, Mike with that independent, work for yourself, be your own boss, homestead economic philosophy. To the conformist corporate establishment, you're kind of a rebel. I like it. Keep on keeping on.
Thank you!! What an inspiration! Thank you for caring about others, wanting to share your ideas and success with others. God bless you! I will definitely be watching and taking a lot of notes! Love your heart on this. Again, God bless you both ✝️❤️
Mike you the homie for sure! I love the tips and motivation because I’m working on setting up a nursery myself starting with an eastern red cedar tree that is like 30 years old that I’m about to take like 1k cutting from and grow out for a year! Thanks so much and I’ll be doing some catching up on your channel!
I am very thankful to have found you on UA-cam appreciate all the information time effort and simplicity yet step by step basics you put into your videos creating your videos is not simple this I know so just know you are greatly appreciated and respected in many different ways..... Abigail chiming in from the great state of Tennessee 🙏💃
Love You Mike... When I get some land, again...Will get started back in the plant business...God's Kingdom will be Beautiful...we will Build His Paradise & God will get All the Glory!!! Be Blessed!!!
@Kanikapila Ho'ohanai I agree wholeheartedly ... Jesus will lead me to His Place called There...many cities of Light will pop up in these last days to help others searching for Truth...who knows... it just might be in Hawaii where He places me....Exciting Times Indeed, My Friend!!!
@Kanikapila Ho'ohanai You know what is going on...rural areas is where these cities, villages, etc... will be...& yes, God told me to get out of Babylon in Dec 2015...& stop feeding the beast...& follow Him...exactly what I have done...
After seeing how lovely the dappled willow are, I cut some of mine so I can have a nice pretty hedge along my vacation rental property. They are beautiful in the wind and boy do they grow F A S T!!!!! Mine got up to 6-8 feet in one season starting with a two gallon nursery pot! 😳 wish I had started some last year. I’d have that hedge by now!!!
Found your channel trying to learn about cuttings. Hopefully I can get some of the cuttings started so I can plant them in my yard. If that goes well maybe I'll grow a few to sell or give away too.
I need a little extra income to save myself and own a field that’s about 1 acre in size. Thank you for helping me find a way that I could create a little extra income.
I think the difference between the "small guys" and the big box stores, is we are gardeners, we care, we know the lore and the care of these plants. We connect to the customer, unlike the big stores that just bring the plants in on a semi and toss them in the trash when they aren't blooming anymore. Thanks for the videos, Mike! =)
@nimrodian Same here. But they can only do so much and they are few and far between. I have had some take me to plants, mostly perennials, that were just marked down and tell me it is all because the stopped blooming! Of course I have to buy them lol
@@davelawson2564 That's a learned skill just like gardening and gets easier with time. Depends on the person and their interests as well but everyone can improve.
It's not just putting sticks in the ground and people start giving you money. There's time and seasons and learning and a ton of legalities that you won't even know until you start doing it. Of course its doable, and I do it, but not as easy as he makes it seem that's all.
I love your videos. But I wish you would but the names of the plants in the description of your video. I live in zone 9 in houston and maybe some of your plants would not do well here. But do love the videoa.
I am unhappy with the sand available in my area. It has to much clay I think and it holds water a long time. Thinking of mixing it with soil amendment, which is basically fine pine tree bark. What do you think?
Wow! Wonderful! So smart! Do you use rooting hormone? Can you give us a step by step video? And do you sell these plants online? Where can i get some? Im in pa.
Im just got started this yr . I have a few plants . The problem I have is iam from Louisiana, its hot here in the summer . Any suggestions on what pants are good for this area. And it good to see new videos thanks mike
Thanks Mike. Growing them not the problem. Selling them is a different story. I really don't want to turn my driveway into a permanent garage sale & hauling them to the Farmers Market every week isn't proving to be very lucrative for us.
Where they hardwood cuttings and did you have at least 3 nodes on them? I tried this last year as well and they all rooted. Also, if you didn't, use rooting hormone and pierce the"skin" of the cutting on the base of it, where you use the rooting hormone.
Mike I have watched some of your videos several times. I enjoy your instructional methods and your down home approach. Do you specifically look for plants that are not trademarked or patented? As a new propagator any plant that does not have a tag that says Patent Pending or Trademarked name is fair game propagating? This must be very time consuming shopping for plain cultivars but keeps you on the right side of the law! No short cut around this is there?
Yeah, easily done if you've got a massive yard, my garden is tiny, it's about 3 times the size of that shed there . I would do anything for a few acres, that to me is also wealth -- the more land you have, the more opportunity you have.
SJ R, i am a 50 year old man, and have been around this stuff a little bit, and i have heard of all these plants... except maybe 2 of the arborvitaes, he named several in the beginning, i don't know about the license, but they are popular plants
Thank you for the video!

I’ve learned a lot from your videos. I love your relaxed comfortable manner. Easy to understand.
Mike, you are one of the guys I admire most when it comes to Plant knowledge and profits!
Thanks for the great videos Mike. You're a legend. Keep up the great work. Much love from Australia.
Mike love your show. Thanks for sharing

I've always enjoyed your videos, sir. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada.
I started doing this a few months ago. I already have 30 saplings that are growing strong. I am out of room now!
Mike your place looks great what a difference in a few years. Absolutely Lush property with beautiful plants

Awesome channel, I'm starting up my nursery this spring selling vegetable seedlings. Any business that you can do at home is saving money.
Thanks for sharing this! Great video!
Good stuff thanks for sharing. I think I like this idea I'm give it a shot.
Like $$ in the bank! Always, a demand for plants.

Like, or want plants? No time? Mike can help!
Invest in your passion, the money / compensation will come.
Thank you for excellent video and teaching
Inspiring as always, Mike!
That was very encouraging..great video..xo. Ty
I have been propagating for years . I really enjoy growing ! A great way to get a return on your investment . More time invested than money !!!
Found your channel trying to learn about cuttings. Hopefully I can get some of the cuttings started so I can plant them in my yard. If that goes well maybe I'll grow a few to sell or give away too.
Thank you so much.
Nice video👍
This will be next year. My strawberry’s are going crazy. I just ordered pots for the runners. My grapevines went crazy.
Brilliant.
I need a little extra income to save myself and own a field that’s about 1 acre in size. Thank you for helping me find a way that I could create a little extra income.
Thank you for this video! I love growing plants but I have been scared to sell what I'm growing.
@@stayhooked9499 Thank you!! That's what I'll do.

I would love to do this!!
I am subscribing Mike. Hope I can learn someting.
Sweet!!
Mike T Y , like yer videos. Im gettin the itch.
Definitely going to try this again. I tried last year but forgot about them 😬😬😬
He makes it sound so easy but it's not. Its hard work.
If you're passionate about plants and working outdoors it's not as much like work to some.
Tough part is networking and selling

Mike... YOO da man ! 😎🚬
👍👍
Your videos are so informative. Thank you. I’m curious how you ship some of these plants if you’re someone planning to sell online.
I love your videos. But I wish you would but the names of the plants in the description of your video. I live in zone 9 in houston and maybe some of your plants would not do well here. But do love the videoa.

Skies the limit - How fast can you cut and plug?
I am unhappy with the sand available in my area. It has to much clay I think and it holds water a long time. Thinking of mixing it with soil amendment, which is basically fine pine tree bark. What do you think?
Mike, when do you root your hydrangea winter or spring and will they root in sand
I want to buy everything😄
Wow! Wonderful! So smart! Do you use rooting hormone? Can you give us a step by step video? And do you sell these plants online? Where can i get some? Im in pa.
Cinnamon powder works by blocking diseases.
I have time, money and desire to start but I can't find hardwood cuttings online or locally 😒. Mike's member page is closed to new members
Open may 10th
Im just got started this yr . I have a few plants . The problem I have is iam from Louisiana, its hot here in the summer . Any suggestions on what pants are good for this area. And it good to see new videos thanks mike
Fuchsia bring about $30 mothers day. Have to have heat. What about hibiscus
thanks
Mandevilla is a great flowering vine in the heat
nimrodian thanks. Thats a great idea
Thanks Mike. Growing them not the problem. Selling them is a different story. I really don't want to turn my driveway into a permanent garage sale & hauling them to the Farmers Market every week isn't proving to be very lucrative for us.
Car boot sales, country fairs, even direct selling to garden centres are other options, or is it simply not your passion?
Facebook groups and market place
Can i propagate on the summer in june in minnesota? Tgey arevtaking the mother tress down i want to propigate all i can
I tried sticking grape vine sticks in sand (sandbox sand), over wintered them, and none of the dozen grew roots. Any suggestions?
Dummy. you grow them in spring and water daily if you want them to survive and thrive.
Where they hardwood cuttings and did you have at least 3 nodes on them? I tried this last year as well and they all rooted. Also, if you didn't, use rooting hormone and pierce the"skin" of the cutting on the base of it, where you use the rooting hormone.

Hi good video
Are you in Australia.
more dank more money eh
Where are the pollinator plants ?
Yeah, easily done if you've got a massive yard, my garden is tiny, it's about 3 times the size of that shed there . I would do anything for a few acres, that to me is also wealth -- the more land you have, the more opportunity you have.
You could easily do a 1000 plants in one little corner just sell them younger before potting up to gallon maybe the size of a cup
I am literally using a 8x6 porch to grow my plants. You can cry about it or you can do something about it.
Where do you live to be able to propagate stuff just uncovered, full sun ? Stuff would 100% bake to a crisp where I live!
Oh You Can Build Wealth With Plants Alright! Wink Wink 😉
Hey now!
Sorry I Couldn't Help Myself! Happy Growing Too You Sir👍
@@tonylee4522 Happy Growing!
Sir can i have some seeds pls
😇Just AS ONgoing Side Inve$ting😇
Thank You for Keeping Earth Growing
You should charge $2
You really need to eat just plants, colon cleanse some fasting if you want to be around to enjoy your golden years !
I haven't heard of any of those plants, I'm in the far Nother, but, I wonder Need a license to sell? I'll take an answer from anyone.
Nope!

@@lendavidhart9710 Thank you, I will do a 'search'
Cmon mike, ya need ads. It’s ok to make a few bucks off teaching us.
I use to do this with cannabis..but know cannabis is pointless.fun hobby it is tho.
Do not feed the democrats!
What?!
Only feed stormy Daniels and theorange grifter reprobate crook. L. O. L.

How do you become member to buy plants 🪴?
