  • Growing huge hanging flower baskets of petunias is so easy if you follow these simple steps. The secrets to big beautiful hanging flower baskets are to 1.) pack the plants in tightly 2.) fertilize well 3.) water frequently through the summer. That's it! Planting hanging baskets and growing them on is a lot of fun but I see people struggle with hanging baskets and I think the biggest problem is under-watering. When these petunias get large, they require a constant supply of moisture and even 1 day of drying out can wilt the leaves. Follow these steps and you'll be successful!

    I've been following this Petunia series since the beginning, it got me inspired. I've been taking cuttings all spring and keep planting in my outside garden once they out grow a 3 inch pot. It's crazy how easy it is. I found a stem that a rabbit broke off and decided to stick it in the dirt nearby just to let mother nature handle it, now it's just as big as the plant it came from. Keep the videos coming Mike!

      That is a gorgeous red petunia, Mike! I usually go for lavender or purple, but that is a beautiful red. Thanks for sharing your info on growing huge baskets! I used to use the water from our Koi pond to water my plants and they were always so beautiful! Since I accidentally killed my husband's huge Koi, I will try your method til I replace the Koi. Maybe I will like your method better! 😉

    Because of you I learned how to propagate my petunias and I now have plants that are bigger than the mother plant. I am now working on getting the petunias we have at our church propagated to add more into our church garden. I wish there was a way I could post a picture on here to show you what we’ve done :-) Thank you so much! I love watching your videos!

    Beautiful! My Daughter & Son-in-Law just moved into a lovely home. 🏡 I gave them 2 petunia hanging baskets for their front porch. I noticed that the plants are pretty but leggy & devoid of fullness. So I found several UA-cam videos, including yours, on how to fill the plants out, which I shared with them. Hopefully they allow me to help since I enjoy caring for flowers & can do so while they set up the interior of the home. Thank you.

    I have never heard of taking cuttings. I would have no space to overwinter them, anyway. I'm in zone 5 and have had every hanging basket and planter of petunias re-seed from the previous years petunias. I get so many starts I give them to friends and buy more pots and hangers so I don't waste any. I've now started planting them in flowerbeds and have a whole new crop this summer. They've been blooming for weeks!

    Awesome! Those are beautiful! I have a beautiful pink petunia and a smaller red one but it's starting to come out. I think I'm definitely going to do some cuttings now! I don't know why I didn't think to before but I am now!
    I've been doing begonia cuttings and it's so easy! I think you should try it. All you have to do is let you chickens get into them and break all the branches, get mad at your chickens then decide "Well, might as well try something" and stick the broken branches in some dirt 😂
    I had a massive begonia last year and I had been protecting it from the chickens, then I left the cage off it and the chickens broke it. And how I have a bunch of begonias from it that made it through the winter! I've even done a few cuttings off of last year's cuttings!

    • @MikeKincaid79
      @MikeKincaid79  4 роки тому

      Cutting them back causes them to bush out even more and eventually got more bud sites for more profuse blooms. I love fuchsias too! They make beautiful hanging baskets. Maybe there's a video in the future on it.

      I started with Osmocote and that's what I usually tell people to buy. I switched to a different fertilizer years ago because it was formulated specifically for rhododendrons and other acid loving plants and I could get it commercially in 50 pound bags. I go through a bag a year.

      I'm in zone 8b and I think you're in a similar zone. I'd just be sure to try planting them on the north side of a building where it's mostly shade and mulch really well to keep moisture down near the roots all summer.

    Gorgeous! Ive never had a greenhouse, so Im wondering if that plant will go through any kind of shock when its moved outside? I planted a BUNCH of petunia seeds indoors this spring (heat pads and grow lights) and they came up, and have been “stuck” at about 3/4” inch tall. I cut way back on water- but no change. Got tired of babysitting them and planted outside. They still look the same 🤣

      It’s not heated and the temps inside are basically the same as outside. I leave the ends open.

    I bought some petunias this year that I'm just in love with and I'm hoping this works for me because they're a little expensive there are certain kind which I shall not name on here lol.
    The first set that I tried I might have fried them oops. I'm trying again and this time I brought them inside.
    I have them in a plastic dollar store container with a couple of small holes in the lid. I'm wondering if I should put a couple more holes in the lid.

      @@MikeKincaid79 well they are getting stuck. I don't know if it's actually making an appreciable difference, but it's satisfying to see them stuck to the leaves lol.

    I haven’t seen any chicken manure here. I do gardens for others. I love using manure.

    I love ur work and believe ur an expert but I just cant bring myself to cut the flowers off but I know there are reasons to do so.

    • @MikeKincaid79
      @MikeKincaid79  4 роки тому +1

      You can leave them on too but they won't grow as tight and full. Either way, they'll be beautiful. The cool thing about petunias is they recover very quickly and will be blooming again in no time.

    This is mad! I've watched the late cutting series and am astonished at how well it works out. I have seeds germinating for a summer display and am so looking forward to choosing one or two colours to expand through successive cuttings over winter and early spring. I do have a couple of questions: How many hours a day are the lights on? (I'm currently paying 0.5 GBP (0.75 USD) per kWh for electricity here in the UK and fear it will be cheaper to buy plants than run the lights over winter). Also, I believe pelargonium geraniums are traditionally over-wintered by bringing them into a frost-free space and letting them almost dry out to make them dormant. Do you know if petunias would survive a similar dormancy? They grow so quickly, I'm hoping I could make them dormant to save on electric lighting, wake them in the spring, and still get enough cuttings for a splendid display. Love your channel, new sub. Thanks!

      As far as electric cost, that's going to vary from place to place, but there are so many more considerations involved than just money. Don't forget that you'll actually enjoy growing these all winter and seeing blooms in your home. The light cost is negligent though. It doesn't amount to much at all if you use simple fluorescent bulbs. Yes, you can also, just bring them into a cooler place that doesn't go below freezing, but gets cold, and allow them to go dormant. I've done that before as well.

      Not yet but I get asked that a lot. I'll have to look into it.
