I was wondering which type of sand you were using for the cutting and now I know. Thank you!

[@zoni36]

Came to say thank u so much for ur video. Started my prop box 2 weeks ago, with 3 different plant cuttings and they have all sprouted roots and/or new leaves.
Easiest propagation I’ve ever done! Thanks so much!

[@jocelynchavira8345]

I was confused what kinda sand.other videos just didn't help.you're amassing great great video.lots of good info.thank you.

[@johncharlesfarrell3144]

A lot of good information in a small package.

[@ddee51-g2g2]

Thank you so much... this will definitely save money and time because I'm starting a little late on my seed sowing. 👍🏾👍🏾

[@christinaschaplowsky4241]

My husband asked what I was watching.. I said what sand do I need for cuttings.. he said what? I don’t know from the playground I guess.. he wasn’t all wrong 😂 thanks for the great gardening advice.. love your videos ♥️

[@robinfitzgerald7093]

I’m rooting plants in playground sand and used aloe Vera. Your video confirmed I’m doing it right!

[@ignaciochavez4892]

Thank you for the video. I recognized your voice from your videos you've been posting recently. I had no idea it was one of your videos since this one it's from 5 years ago.
I'm trying to get my garden going and I'm having a hard time getting everything I need; mixing the right soil, shade etc. I need to learn how to prepare the soil for vegetables, strawberries and roses.
Thank you for sharing this video

Good info. Thank you.

[@lynnmoser6918]

My 50 pound play sand today was $3.34.at Home Depot. The classic bed would be a Nearing Frame for hardwood cuttings.

[@cathywest8776]

Thank You !!! :)

[@lynnedavis4819]

Thank-You so much for your info. I was wondering if this was for hard woods only?

[@wandabechtel9613]

I know this is an old video but I would like to ask a question? Can you use the sand to winter sow your seeds for flowers and vegetables?

[@plantabundance]

Yes

[@MrDanrn999]

Thank you

[@ridgebackpups]

Thanks

[@rollzolo]

I don't know why but I don't like throwing the containers coming in pasties or tv dinner trays in recycling bin because I know there's uses for them.

[@cynthiacarr2093]

Tyfs😁❤

[@tlockerk]

Hmmm, and if my back garden is just...well, "sand"? Can I rake up, clean to rinse off the leaf bits, and use?

[@chadvollrath1760]

Ok. I have several bags of the 60lb graded course sand from lowes. Tubesand I used for weight in the bed of my truck. Wanted to know if it's OK to use for propagation because I have lots. I heard it has to be rinsed and not sure whether this sand I mentioned csn be used

[@chadvollrath1760]

Messaged the company and they said it's been rinsed. No issues.

[@sand.590]

Hi there do we have to drill a hole if propagating hydrangea in a container with sand. Covered in a storage container

[@debbiemiller8018]

You have a question how often and how well do you have to water the sand so you don't wind up with root rot

[@karenoneal6891]

Hi when starting seeds in sand in trays do you wait until all the water is gone or do you just keep a small amount in the bottom of your tray

[@williaml8474]

No need / no value in any organic component amendment - peat, compost?
Could this be used for growing microgreens?

[@yoriichi3347]

Are you using coarse sand?.

[@christinehill1618]

What are your thoughts on seedlings 🌱 in sand?

[@mzlotus.3077]

Cool beans!

[@jameswoll]

2:50 Lol, Dan, why ya got a crab leg in your sand?

[@plantabundance]

Haha does look like it. It's actually a Christmas Cactus cutting.

[@charles5398]

Cats would have a field day in there. Would need to completely enclose in my area.

[@plantabundance]

I've got a solution for you. Just do a search on this channel for "stop all thieves".

[@CSDeVault]

I thought you were drinking red wine at 3:15...

[@powersonic6255]

Does anyone know on average how long sand rooting propagation like this may take . I do understand that different plants may take different time to root so just an average time is fine based on your experience .

[@seanlouisbaker]

I’m planning on doing a lot

[@chadvollrath1760]

I have not tried this method and always use water with success but I've this idea. I have heat Matting, lights and a small greenhouse I got at lowes. Can't wait. Just need to get humidity up a bit when I do. Mite just cover with a clear plastic to create green house affect if I need more.

[@chadvollrath1760]

Following..

[@amealnet2495]

Can I use sand to germinate seeds?

[@pineappleporcupine5717]

Can I use paver sand?

[@mellowout9238]

Silica from a foundry would that work

[@rubendiodonet5249]

How would u use the play sand in a potting mix?

[@benthere8051]

Many use 10% sand in a mix of peat moss and/or coconut coir.

[@subtropicalsteph]

Can you keep re-using the sand over and over?

[@plantabundance]

Yes

[@chadvollrath1760]

Yes. In the video he mentioned you can for sure.

[@dorisjimison7590]

I hope you can help me. I have a sand that is fine sand. At the moment, I can't get out to Lowe's. Can I use fine sand for a few weeks, and then repot them at that time in course sand?

[@plantabundance]

Yes, that will work. Cheers!
