    You forgot to mention the fourth reason : Spite. I have had countless cuttings fail, just because they wanted to annoy me. The damage/loss due to spite is usually inversely proportional to how important/urgent/expensive the cuttings were, and how much time/energy was invested in them.

    I took hundreds of cuttings in the late spring, the time stated as the best time for them. Some were firm tip cuttings, others small semi-hard wood. Most were not dipped in rooting hormone as I did not have access to it it at that time. I stuck the cuttings some into sharp sand, some in commercial potting mix, some in a mix of two different brands of potting mix, and some in a mix of sharp sand and potting mix. Stuck them into tubes. They in trays under 75% shadecloth as summer was coming on, and were watered every day to keep them moist. For many weeks they stayed green and alive looking, and in fact some continued that way for up to four months! Yet most of them did not grow roots, and eventually died off.
    In the distant past I regularly propagated most of these same kinds of plants using our ordinary garden soil, no rooting hormone, and four-inch pots with a number of cuttings in each pot - and had a good success rate.
    Have you any ideas or suggestions about what I have done wrong with these latest cuttings?

    • @FraserValleyRoseFarm
      @FraserValleyRoseFarm  3 роки тому +9

      Hi Lori - it's encouraging that you've had good success in the past. I don't know that I can trouble-shoot accurately from just a description, but maybe the first thing I'd consider is the shade/moisture. A moist shady location will do a good job of keeping cuttings green, but also may not be offering the right conditions to encourage fast rooting. If you're don't treat with rooting hormone, the cuttings rely light to help send down their own natural rooting hormones to the base of the cuttings.

    I bought a rose plant. It is amazing. When it grows a new stem, It grows 6-8 rose per stem at a single time.
    I have 8 rose on a stem now and rose size is about 90mm-110mm. size of single rose is more than my palm
    I have 5 rose plans. One of them looks like valentine rose and size is about 80-90 but it only grows 1-2 rose when stem is new. 3rd grows 4 roses per stem when the stem is new & looks same like valentine rose.
    The other rose plants grow small roses but their fragrance is amazing.

    I found that cuttings(stems thinner than a pencil) from young plants generally tend to be more viable in rooting even without hormone. Although the downside would be that it will take longer time for the plant mature but at the very least they are alive.

    This is a great post & time codes is a great idea.
    Another method that really helps is to not cut, but to push off suckers on plants like crepe myrtles, peregrinates, etc. That partial node at the bottom really helps. You still cut the top off as needed. This really helps on hardy hibiscus by pushing off new spring shoots, sometimes a few small roots are already present. I am in east Texas doing one or two at a time, so I cover with a baggie and keep in the shade. Very high success rate.

    Easiest way to propogate roses is to do it on flower sponge . Cut sponges into small cubes so each stem fit. Stick them up to each sponge individually, put them in a bowl or container filled with water up to a few inch up to the sponge . Wait for the roots to comes out. After roots appear put them into a, soil along with the sponge.
    Happy propogation.. 🥰😍😍👍👍

    Very helpful information, thank you Jason, you confirmed my suspicions. I am propagating cuttings from mango, avocado, and Camellia Sinensis (tea) in Hawaii, this time of year the days are still warmer, but the nights drop 20 to 30 degrees cooler depending upon sunny or cloudy conditions. I have been focusing on the warmer part of the day and not realizing that the soil is not fully warming up the same leading to more moisture than needed. This is the third fall season that I have tried to overcome this challenge and this video identified what I suspected. Although you are in Canada, your greenhouse growing environment is probably very similar to the natural environment here right now and I have been watching your videos to see how you adjust to the changes. Very helpful indeed. Thanks again. 👍

      @@FraserValleyRoseFarm I can tell you that it's a curious experience because the seasons are similar and not at all the same all at once. Lol
      Probably the most significant difference is no hard frost or significant dormancy to allow plants to regenerate like now up North. Also which island and where on the island matters greatly. I live on the island of Hawaii which is the active volcano on the west side of the island with mostly volcanic rock and typically the hottest part of the state. Shade trees are necessary and so is irrigation and erosion control because when it rains you might get the wonderful light falling rain or up to 6in/15cm in 5 minutes. Hahaha... Actually the biggest challenges are pest and weed control because of the lack of severe cold that naturally limits their populations. Most other things are typical of particular areas like anywhere else, damp areas have mold, mildew, fungus, wet rot, and all the things that go with it much like Vancouver and the Pacific Northwest, arid and sunny, to all the in between. This is specifically different because the volcanoes are over 13,000ft/4,600m high and literally create their own weather like the challenge I have with cuttings during this time of year. Lol
      When it snows on top of the mountains that cold air flows down as the sun goes down much like opening the freezer door and feeling the cold air on your feet after a minute or two. Some very interesting things that can influence growing and especially cultivating. Most people leave this time of year alone, but I am determined to find that success because it seems to be similar to the spring/ fall transition without the extreme weather/temperature fluctuations with sleet/snow and then back to 60/70f- 10/20c. Of course your growing season is like 6 hours, so you really have to be ready. Lol
      I am actually quite impressed with how successful you are considering all the limiting factors in your area. Compared to most areas you folks have one of the shortest growing seasons on the planet aside from the polar caps. Lol
      I think our winter months are probably very similar to your summer. You really should take some time and come to Hawaii during your slower time just to reccoup and see how nature does a greenhouse. ⛰🌋🗻🏖🏝👍

      Thanks so much. Yes, I've done air layering, but TBH I've just found semi-hardwood cuttings faster and easier, particularly since I'm doing larger numbers.

    There plenty of very good books that give the correct stage for each plant. And he is absolutely correct on the grower guides. I would stay away from social media for advice because many folks there don’t know anymore than you do. The truly successful are too busy growing to spend much time on social media unless for marketing reasons. Also check commercial growing guides - search for example “commercial hydrangea production” or whatever you want to research whether tomatoes or ducked, or ornamentals. Another search is to look for “university articles on whatever it is you are researching. Most universities will have run trials as part of the teaching or extension programs.
    For rooting I suggest using a company like Hormex (check their website) who makes both powders and liquids and in 3 strengths for different types of plants depending of their difficulty in rooting. If you use too strong a hormone or not strong enough - the result is the same- no roots or weak roots. It’s the company that is used most by commercial growers. Also never contaminate by dipping into the original container. Always decant some into a small cup - this way I don’t risk spreading disease whether bacteria or viruses from a cutting to everything you root in the future from the container, you will only affect a small number of cuttings.
    Another product I like to use to submerse my cuttings into as directed in the website applications is Physan20. Do not confuse with Phyton 27 which is a copper product used totally different though it is also for fungal and bacterial issues but must be carefully used or considerable damage can be done from phytotoxicity and/or photo-toxicity. Physan20:
    www.physan.com
    Physan20 is a no rinse product and when used on hard surfaces or pots, tools etc - make sure you have removed all visible dirt off first. I use two bucket: soapy water/sponge, and one for rinse water. I wash the items as needed, rinse and let sit on a bench in the sun. When I’m finished with everything, then I pitch in a tub of the Physan 20 at the strength and for the time directed, pull out and set on a Physan20 sprayed bench to air/sun dry. DO NOT RINSE PHYSAN20 OFF. I use Physan20 on my orchids from coming out of the flask to adult repots. I also use on my other plants as directed and use to clean the greenhouse, pots, buckets, benches, floors, seeds, plants, tools, my hands, etc -even my bathroom and kitchen floors. It’s a bactericide, algaecide, viruscide, fungicide, etc. Check their website.
    It is very important that you keep disease levels as low as possible. This comes from using a product such as Physan20, keeping the environment very clean, and only using specific chemicals for specific issues exactly as directed. I do not like to use broad range chemicals other than for cleaning my environment. I have found using Physan20, I don’t need to use as much fungicides, etc. and usually something happens when I bring in a new set of plants that I didn’t quarantine because I think they looked okay. I’m finally coming around to spray, dip everything that comes in to my growing area. It’s not worth losing plants to foliage and root issues because of laziness or rushing.
    I do not use Clorox because it smells, is corrosive to eyes, hands, items in general, bleaches out color if splashed on hands and the biggest thing is it’s only active for about an hour. If you want to use Clorox - please go to the Clorox website and look for the directions for what you are trying to achieve. With Clorox you must also remove gross dirt or it will drop the efficiency of your disinfecting.
    Physan20, if you don’t contaminate it with dirt, will last for several days. There are test strips you can buy for the active ingredient that tests the level as to whether it’s still active for what you are trying to achieve, the same as used in restaurants, hospitals, food processing, etc.

    You uploaded this video it's telling me 3 years ago in the information is amazing and gardening sure we advance and we bring out different cultivars and hybrids but good old fishing knowledge is just a godsent thank you for your video I live in New Zealand and our climate is very different you know and trying to find the balance I used to have the greenest fingers and when I started getting into house plants because my house or my apartment sorry it's very low light I started having trouble growing things like what is known as a nerve plant the green and white variety the iridescent pink and dark green variety just as an example and I honestly felt that my soil or medium now I was using contains too many little fertilizer balls and pellets so as of today I have purchased some propagating sand now we did this in high school horticulture where we had a missing bar that was on a timer and a heat pad underneath well I've got it sitting this tray on some fluorescent lights I use in my home which will keep the bottom warm which should stimulate root growth and I think he at the stages like I tried growing some ficus celestica or rubber plant or rubber tree the variegated version I think no one in New Zealand is Ruby and I took it from one of the new laterals shoots but again black mold and things like that so I'm hoping that the sand is going to make a difference trying to keep it warm from the bottom but also if anyone's monitoring this I'm just wondering about the amount of light or would enough natural light if it's coming in the window be enough and miss them once or twice a day after not drying out thank you

    • @FraserValleyRoseFarm
      @FraserValleyRoseFarm  Місяць тому

      Natural light should do pretty well for the earliest stages of rooting.

    @christmassnow3465 3 роки тому +6

    Also type of rooting medium (soil) is worth mentioning. I saw a video somewhere (Unfortunately, I couldn't find the link) about rooting aroids in different potting mixes. The ready-made cactus potting mix has disappointing results, and sphagnum moss turned-out the best for rooting aroid cuttings. The sphagnum moss is very coarse and airy, and if not waterlogged would be ideal for rooting cuttings inside a humid box.

    • @FraserValleyRoseFarm
      @FraserValleyRoseFarm  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks, and true that rooting medium is important. I've heard great things about long-fiber sphagnum but haven't tested it myself yet.
