BIGGEST Cutting We've ever Rooted: How to Grow a Fig Tree From a Cutting | Extreme Plant propagation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 вер 2021
- This is the biggest cutting we've ever rooted! Extreme plant propagation in the truest sense. If you ever wanted to learn how to grow a fig tree from a cutting (and I mean a really big fig tree) then you've got to see this. This fig cutting is 2 foot long, 6 inches in diameter, the densest wood I've ever dealt with, and it came from the trunk of a decades old fig tree. I treated this cutting as I would any other hardwood cutting, by preparing the bottom surface with rooting hormone and sticking it in a good draining rooting medium. It got left out in the open without any form of mist or humidity around it. I just watered it every day or every other day to keep the wood moist around the base. Looking forward to training this one up as a bonsai fig tree!

I worked with a woman years back who said she had taken branches off trees and they grew. I've tried with no luck. This gives me new hope!!
There is always hope!
Are you using rooting compound?
I just rooted 4 Moringa branch cuttings, I watered it once so the soil was damp, the mistake people normally make is over watering, rooting branches like that do not require much water, I didn't put any hormones on mine, it just takes patience and a bit of water, and even If I use a rooting hormone, I use Aloe and that works incredibly well
I stacked 6 inch diameter willow as firewood and it rooted. As long as the tree is suitable for rooting, you can get it done.
Have you attempted Figs? They couldn't be much easier to root.
i built a raised bed this spring with some logs from a maple tree that I cut down 6 months earlier. A couple of weeks later, they started to sprout new growth. Amazing.
Haha, that's pretty cool.
I have seen that too huge pieces a year old sprouting new grout and it's been chainsawed on both ends
You’re like the Steve Irwin of the plant world..sooo enthusiastic..I wish all kids shared this kind of interest & enthusiasm for plants & hope to see stuff like this being taught in schools someday..it’s exciting, rewarding, teaches patience..Mother Nature is amazing ! 😁👍
Yes, everything you said is spot on! I just can't get enough of working with plants. I'm honored by your first sentence.
@@MikeKincaid79 - 😂😂 .. Irwin brought a whole new & exciting dimension to his field..don’t get me wrong, I adore Attenborough but Irwin was cool AF .. I love all living organisms but don’t have the space to venture into it as much as I’d like to, unfortunately..your vid is the first of its kind that I’ve managed to watch all the way..very informative & has given me the kick up the a#se that I needed, to take some cuttings from local plum & apple trees..thank you dude 😉👍
So cool, i am trying this. I was thinking the same, Steve Irwin of plants@@woodstockxx
Mike, your enthusiasm is contagious...and your daughters are proof😁!
Thanks! We make a great team.
You can root any thing
with water & peroxide.
@@berthapoblacion4019 how much hydrogen peroxide? Or what ratio?
@@sarahtco3230
Two gallons of water
1 ounce of peroxide. even if you go over it it won't hurt the plant's.
to tell you the truth
I,don't even measure🙂
the dollar store has 32oz
for a dollar i,buy several bottle's at a time coz each time i,water with peroxide.
Yes, I was going to say something very similar. You seem like a very positive person and your daughters too. I hope that they are not in public schools. Public schools are indoctrination camps. So, very evident in the times that we find ourselves in today (2021).
Mike, you are the Steve Irwin of Plant Propagation! Thank you for your great motivating videos from Kennewick!
What a beautiful compliment! I loved that man and it was a sad day when he passed. Happy to motivate and entertain!
Oooh, that was an awesome comparison! No one tops the Crocodile Hunter...yet Mike has that same energy, spot on Miss Kimberly : D
Steve Irwin of propagation is pretty good way of looking on it
Can't wait to see your bones fig updates! Congratulations on the figs and for having such genuine kind and hard working daughters.
Thanks! I'm looking forward to seeing how these trees develop too. Yes, my daughter's are very helpful and I couldn't do it without them.
It’s been two years- any updates? Thinking about doing this with a neighbors trimmins
Really fantastic! I doubt I ever will see a larger cutting rooted! Wow!
Tremendous roots on both of those! Those are beautfiul!
Thanks, now it's time to figure out what we want our bonsai to look like!
The real Magic Mike, please stand up! Excellent! Thank you.
Haha, thanks for watching!
Great to see another enthusiast, I do this all the time with my Cordyline Australis here in the UK, I cut them down as they were 10 feet tall, with thick branches, practically in half, sprinkled some rooting powder on the base of the cuttings and put them straight into the ground or in pots, they grow like crazy in no time
That video was a lot of fun! It was terrific to see your girls out there getting involved. When my son was 3, he stuck this big stick in his sand box, started watering it and calling it his “tree.” Darned if the thing didn’t sprout and start growing! It turned out that the stick was cottonwood. My husband & my son transplanted the new tree away from the house, into our field. That was 28 years, ago! That tree is now enormous (I dunno, maybe 40 ft?). Please propagate MORE TREES! Smoke Tree, Hawthorne, Sourwood, Hazelnut, Locust…I’d love to see it. Thanks for sharing with us, Mike!
I'd love to do more trees. I love sourwood and know where one is growing but I'd have to ask the owner for a few cuttings.
@@MikeKincaid79 I’m sure they’d help out, since it is for educational purposes. 😁 We have some beautiful red Hawthorne up here. I tried rooting one, but it didn’t take. Maybe you can find some different cuttings (you know) just laying around in some parking lots. 😉
Got you beat. 3-4 foot wide log from lower portion of a curly Willow. It was too big for my chain saw so I dragged it into my chicken pasture for a roost. It grew.
Haha, I knew I'd hear some stories eventually. We had a cottonwood that we took down and I left the old tree trunk laying in one of my rhody beds and planted rhododendrons all around it. This was about 6 years ago or so. The tree trunk (about 3 feet in diameter and 10 feet long) started growing, lol. I had to poison the trunk so it would die off.
Kimberly Hughes commented on your enthusiasm. Can't agree more! Keep that spirit man! It's contagious and as she said, and yes your daughters show it. It's a great environment for them to grow. 👍👍
W👀W! Mike, those massive 'cuttings actually rooted! Now that's impressive, and your lovely assistants are growing like, well, weeds! I'm looking forward to seeing you prune and shape those into Bonsai Fig Trees. I love your enthusiasm for propagation, it's positively addictive. Have a great week, Kincade family! ~Margie
So glad to spread the enthusiasm. Thanks for watching, Margie! I'll definitely do update videos on whatever we do with these cuttings.
I've actually taken whole limbs that drooped real low on my fig trees and buried them whilst still attached to the tree and had them root. Cut them off later and place elsewhere. Marvin the fig man in Arkansas showed me that trick
Hello Welcome How are you I want Shiraa Rooting hormone Minka please
What a wonderful gift to give his girls…..the lovely memories and the great knowledge for gardening and growing.❤️🙏🏼
Yes, I love spending time with them and involving them in everything I do around here.
@@MikeKincaid79 a very wise man
Mike you have done it again. Rooting anything you can get your hands on. It is a success. That is important.
Dude, I wannabe just like YOU when I grow up! Wait.... I already am grown up. DAMNIT!! I missed the boat AGAIN!!!!! Oh well, I guess I have to just live vicariously through you!!!
Hahaha, what a compliment, Roy! Don't worry, even though you can't BE me, we can still be friends and we're all connected through a force that none of us fully understand. Glad you enjoyed this one!
Awesome! The first figs I rooted 2 years ago fruited this year, its been great learning and comparing what you have been doing with yours, but you just took it to the next level not gonna lie, next time my husband says I'm crazy about my figs I'm showing him this video, LOL, keep propagating, I love the videos, saludos desde México!!
So glad you enjoyed it, Elba! Keep growing those figs!!!
Some folks are just naturally gifted in being great teachers and presenters. Mike is absolutely one of those folks! Watching this first thing in the morning is so much better than watching news channels. Maybe the world isn’t such a bad place after all.
Man, what a nice comment. Humbles me to hear such wonderful things being said. Thanks for that, Stephen.
🤩 wow amazing. My in laws lost a huge weeping willow and I propagated a ton of them and some were big branches. But nothing like that. How cool! So neat. Keep it up Mike!
I saw this on your FB , wow!! Your excitement is contagious! Love this, congratulations Mike.
Hello dear how are you doing?
Cool to see a trunk rooting. You usually think of a cutting being tiny. I will have to try this myself!
Yeah, it's definitely not tiny, lol. Just couldn't help myself!
This is amazing. I never even seen a root hormone use on massive log like that. Great job, this will be my next experiment. Thanks for this video, great work.
Glad you enjoyed it, John. This project was a lot of fun. Good luck with your experiments.
Love the dad energy when you pulled it out of the pot
I love to see anyone get that excited about plants 🌱
Haha, the girls and I had a lot of fun with this one.
Your enthusiasm makes me smile 😀 I planted a fig tree in my moms garden about 2yrs ago & it’s doing really well. I’ll get a cutting from it & see how I get on with it.
You did a great job 🪴
Good luck!
love your videos! you plant interesting stuff, never boring. always excited to see what you are doing. love your energy and enthusiasm. i learn new things from your channel. thanks for sharing and keep up excellent work!
You're welcome! I'm so glad you enjoy the videos and thanks for stopping by for this one!
Thank you sooo much for not making this process so complex. You kept everything so simple and you just made sure to water it ,give it sun, and give it time. And nature did what nature is good at. I will be getting some rooting hormone today, because I have 8 different fruit trees that I will be propagating this season. I hope they will be well established by the Full so that they can survive the winter.
I try to keep it simple. Good luck with your fruit tree propagation.
All the smiles of your team made me smile beginning to end.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it John.
i love how excited you are about the growings
Holy cow I didn’t know you can root a cutting this big lol it’s kind of funny I don’t know why. But great job Mike as always
I didn't know either but had a feeling it would work. Sure was fun!
@@MikeKincaid79 im pretty sure are long as you keep the cambium alive the cutting has hope to root and grow or so it seems
Bahahaha ! Awesome
Good thing you didnt put it on upside down.
@@helenachase78 I'm glad he didn't do that either. otherwise we would not be true believers in Mike Kincaid. This guy and his two little girls performed a great theatrical magic trick or we are seeing a miracle. It does not matter which. What does matter is that his enthusiasm and excellent lecturing talents when combined make it so inspirational. Mike is telling me to hang on and to continue my experimentation with rose propagation. The lady at the local STOP SHOP store flower department (her name is Wendy 😎🤩) who provides me with a vast number of broken stems from damaged Ecuadorian beautiful rose blooms, is so sorry for me that she has guaranteed an endless and unlimited number of cutting from any plant displayed behind and in front of her counter. And, after all this, I still put my David Austin Lady of Shallot upside diwn in the King Clone Hydroponics tank!... 😎🖤
Wow! Impressive, Mike. I cannot believe you rooted a fig trunk, so cool :)
Sure was fun! Love these types of projects.
Loved to see this, your enthusiasm is really viral and you’re doing a fantastic job withe kids!
I love how passionate you are!! I don't know anything about plants but you got me totally into it!
Lol, great!
Just WOW! 🤩🥰
Those roots remind me of lightnings at night. ⚡🌌 I am really glad you tried it and I am happy that it worked out sooooo well! 👌🤞✌️
Aren't those the coolest roots ever!
Mike I have to laugh as I have 3 new volunteer fig trees in my yard. I'm thinking of keeping one & naming it Mike.
You never know, Mike might be a real gem of a fig!
Love the enthusiasm. I know the feeling after getting ONE cutting out of 4 take root last year. Also Herons Bonsai is chill.
I love your enthusiasm! I have just propagated my first hibiscus! Working with nature is so much fun!
Yes it is!
Mike that is awesome! You rooted a log!
You’ve given me yet another idea to try
LOL, have fun with it man!
Exactly. He rooted a log!
WOW. Hilarious but amazing. You could also graft numerous other figs onto the top. Watched someone else on another channel do it. This may qualify as your best propagation video yet. Congrats
Thanks! I had a lot of fun doing this one and it was great getting the girls involved.
Thanks. What a great way to re-cycle unwanted trees ... and get an almost instant tree in the process. Great work.
Yes! That's exactly it, an instant tree!
I'm looking forward to seeing later also ☺. Beautiful young ladies helping too. I get excited with your excitement, I'm grinning when I see you excited. Have a Blessed day 🙌
You too, Sue, and thanks for watching!
You are great Mike! The enthusiasm and the way you involved your family... All I do is appreciate you enormously. Good job! 🥰
Thanks so much John! That comment means a lot to me and I appreciate your support.
Not figs, but I have succeeded in rooting any size of Opuntia ficus indica (Indian Fig Cactus) cuttings and also sections of Yucca elephantipes trunks just by digging a hole and planting them in the soil. I grow figs and took three suckers off my (comparatively small, 3 ft tall) parent Black Turkish fig, and apparently, they have all taken, by just planting them in the soil! I noticed this morning that one of the transplanted suckers has new Spring growth (I live in the Southern Hemisphere), so I will have to check the others later.
A neighbour gave me some Goji suckers a couple of weeks ago, and I think they have rooted as well. I love gardening and knowing how to propagate takes your gardening to a whole new level! Thanks for the videos, from Victoria, Australia.
You're welcome, and thanks for sharing your experience.
Amazing mate!
Next: propagating old Sequoia log used in 1800s home construction. Wow, it rooted!!
Ha, wouldn't that be cool!
Holy crap you never cease to amaze me with your propagation skills.
Much more to come!
Just wow. I found this video when I was trying to find out whether fig cuttings need to be from the newest year’s growth or not. Apparently not!!! Very impressed-and inspired to experiment this winter. Keep up the good work in the garden and on UA-cam!
So glad you enjoyed this one and it helped answer your question, Margaret! I actually prefer wood that is at least 3/4 inch in diameter. I did a video on fig cuttings over a year ago in which I took cuttings from wood that was further down the branch in the beginning of the growing season. The tops of the branches were already growing leaves. They still rooted. Figs are so much fun to experiment with.
Awesome to see you are interested in Bonsai! Get a lot of projects going, these figs could be used and also Japanese Maples make great bonsai. Going to nurseries and looking through the more neglected plants or trees sometimes leads to cool finds to work on too. Keep up the good work!
Yeah, I've still got a ton of Japanese maples in 1 gallon pots and thought about turning them into bonsai.
Thank you so much
MFW professionals do this every day.
Your positive enthusiasm is soo engaging! Nice to see you have two all star cultivators ready to take the baton!
Yep, training them up right! Thanks for watching!
Well done! You are a legend. Your enthusiasm is absolutely contagious.
Thanks! 😃
definitely don't stop doing these, genius idea. I'm going to wait until I need to cut down a tree or find a live log somewhere else and do the same, might need more rooting powder though lol
I'm constantly trying new things. You never know where this channel will take us.
Bonsai: One week you have two trees, the next month you have twenty (or more) and you have no idea where they all came from. I know from experience. Amazing to see your results.
Thanks George, and yes, plants can quickly become a hording problem.
Great video. Your shared experience and enthusiasm crowns you the Steve Irwin of Plant Propagation.
I'm honored
Did the same with a large fig tree, with a 10cm trunk and about 150cm high , I had it in a very large plastic pot that died to root rot after a rain storm at the end of the spring, I sawed of the rotten bottom of the tree until I hit fresh wood, put some steril media in a bag added hormons and opened up a few minor holes in the bag bottom and tied the top of the bag. Moved it into the garage so the wood wouldn't dry out from the sun, a few months later I had roots and branches
Nice save!
You should talk to Nigel Saunders at The Bonsai Zone here on UA-cam... he’s extremely experienced and knowledgeable and I’m sure he’d be able to give you some good pointers.
Good idea. I'll look him up.
I think of him as the bob ross of bonsai.
Quite impressive, Mike! Were these cuttings from the Jim Wilson fig tree? You've definitely opened up possibilities for propagating much larger cuttings.........especially in areas where larger fig trees exist. I would love to see someone take a large cutting like you rooted and graft a bunch of different varieties onto it.
That would be really cool, having multiple varieties on one of these cuttings. Yes, that was from the 'Jim Wilson' tree. That particular trunk has to be at least 50 years old.
Yes, that would be awesome
THAT is amazing !!!! Have never seen anything like that before !!! So inspirational!!! Your daughters are so sweet !!!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it.
Plants are so fascinating. Just the middle of a tree can become a new tree. awesome
I love exploring the possibilities with plants!
Graft different figs on top! Would be cool to see it develop different branches that can be told appart…like 4-5 main branches of different type!
Also, can you do one on olives? Would be much appreciated…just an experiment to see different sizes and their rooting speed! If you buy a decent sized, cheap olive for about 100 dollar you have plenty of material and so many Bonsais to sell/give away!
I'd love to. Not sure if they'll grow in my climate though. I'll have to look into it.
Mike Kincaid I’m based in Germany, which has mild climate and doesn’t get too cold in winter, but yea you need a certain temperature….although i’m sure in a greenhouse they’d do just fine!
Olives would be so awesome!
@@MikeKincaid79 I am in West Oly and I have a potted olive. Let me know if you want some cuttings.
@@MoonGoose-9876 I have a potted one in Pittsburgh but can't root any. Hope Mike can show us the trick to rooting the olives.
This is so inspiring, thanks for sharing! I have a few mulberry cuttings about a quarter of an inch in diameter and 8-10 inches long. Each potted in a 1 gallon with grafting tape on the cutting above dirt to keep from drying out. I have no clue how often I’m supposed to water them, or if at all? Or keep them in a saucer and water from the bottom? Any recommendations? I live in SoCal. Thank you!
Water daily or every other day. I like to water more often but keep the wood exposed to air.
Just found your channel and man I am inspired! Thank you for all your content and help with propagation!!
That's so awesome! Happy to inspire. Thanks for hanging out here on the channel and enjoy the videos!
So much exciting, many tree can be saved from this method
I’m really surprised that such large cuttings took root. Of course the timing and the fact that they were in best environment surely helped. I’m wondering if other plants can be propagated this way as well-I’ll have to try myself. I was a little surprised that you did not gingerly spread the roots apart and place into a larger container. But maybe bonsai protocol did not call for that?
I will definitely work with the roots more later this winter now that they’re hardened off
@@MikeKincaid79 Any chance we can get some updates soon? Really interested in your bonsai idea.
Hi, did you do a further follow up video on them? I'd be curious to know how similar cuttings would do a year and two years out if planted. Would the figs produced be larger/sweeter than those produced one, two years out from smaller cuttings? How different would the yields be even between the two cutting you rooted one, two years out following planting. Btw, love what you were able to do. And, thank you for sharing.
I don't get the substance spread on the upper cut and what it is for.
@@kanenechiokolo3887 I don't believe it's the upper cut. I suspect what you believe to be the upper cut is in fact the lower cut when the limb was inverted so he could apply rooting hormone--the white powder--to stimulate root growth when it's potted.
Mike you really must have green thumbs!! That was an amazing video! I never thought a tree trunk could be rooted, except for Cottonwood trees. They will root just laying on the ground!! I can imagine how excited you were to discover roots! Truly amazing! 😃
This one was so fun to do. I really enjoyed the girls helping out too, in fact, they helped cut the log off the tree.
@@MikeKincaid79 Your girls have grown like weeds! I couldn't believe how big they are. They are so cute and enjoy helping their daddy! I love the videos with them helping you! It's nice to have special family time! They do a great job!
That is amazing,good work, this is the reason I watch your showes Mike, also you get so excited
Glad you enjoyed it! I'll have to do an update on this soon and get it potted up into a bigger pot.
Okay Mike I'm gonna do this! I have a 5+ year old peach tree with 4 huge branches coming from the base. 4 in. In diameter at least. You've inspired me. Can I do this now in Georgia or should I wait until spring?
Sounds like a fun project. I'd wait until closer to spring, just before the bids start to break.
Awesome Sauce!
Peach tree might be a bit more difficult. Figs are known for their ease of rooting from hardwood. It certainly is possible with peach still, so best of luck!
I tried rooting my peach tree from cuttings and it did not work. Also, tried air layering them. After doing some research I found that peaches are much more difficult to root than figs.
Let us know how it went!
That was so cool! I have a question that I don't know if you've already answered but, where do you get your pots from? I'm currently looking for nursery pots at a good price
All over the place. I buy them used and find them on Craigslist, Offer up, Facebook, etc. I've also bought them from nurseries that are going out of business.
Mike you are the BEST ever, I would never have even tried that, heck I would never have even thought of that. You are so enthusiastic about everything and everyone, with git up and go, catches it, thanks for inspiring me once again. Love to you and your family. 😊😊😁😁🤗🤗
Thanks Glenda, glad you're a part of this. I love showing all the fun I have around here with cuttings!
Hey Mike, I think fig trees are a miracle. They multiply so easy and produce fruits in waves whole summer until fall
They are amazing! Can't wait for my trees to get established and start pumping out figs.
The problem with field-grown trees and large cutting is the scars left from heavy shaping hardly ever go away. I grow mine from seed.
I'm sure there will be plenty of scarring here. I suppose the most beautiful bonsai are slowly trained over many years in the way you're doing it.
Love Herons bonsai great channel
Yes it was really worth the watch, I loved it Mike
Awesome, thanks for watching Ramona!
That's CRAZY, Mike! LOL. you know what I'm doing next Spring trip to grandma's! Thanks for sharing
There ya go, David, chop her tree down, hahaha!
hey mike, i'm wondering about trunk rot. i always hear about not getting the trunk covered in soil or mulch because of rot, but there's plenty of trunk under the soil here. Is it different because its a cutting or do you have to do something to mitigate rotting of the cutting during planting?
This isn't really soil. It's finely ground fir tree bark that drains really well and is inert. If I had done this in soil, it would more than likely have rotted.
Ah I see, thanks. 😁
@@MikeKincaid79 just learned something new! Thank you 🙏🏼
It's so frustrating to see such amazing results when everything I cut and try to root just dies. I guess for now I'll just buy the clearance stuff from the hardware stores cuz propagation clearly isn't working for me.
It does work. Don't give up. You may be only one more try away from getting it!
Are you using rooting compound?
Keep trying!! I've been doing it, so I know you can!
I won't quit!! But it IS September, so I'll just try other avenues next year like putting up a small hoop house. Maybe cutting from larger stems. Maybe I need to water less, maybe more. I'm just experimenting at the moment. The honest truth is I've hardly grown anything until this year, so I'm really just in the elementary stage of learning. The positive is I've learned that I DON'T have a black thumb as I have lots of near dead, clearance stuff I've purchased and planted... and it's thriving!!! I'll keep watching and learning. Thank you so for the positivity and encouragement!
@@triciac1019 yep. Always with the routing hormone.
Right now I'm doing a 4 foot tall by 3 1/2 inch wide pair cutting and it's been a little under a month and it has started rooting love your videos keep it up very educational
Sounds like fun! Good luck Dakota.
AMAZING ... I will try it also in my mini garden. Thanks for sharing this great idea 🙏☺️🥰
Most welcome 😊
The roots of the tree are bad, they aren't growing in the right direction, they should be growing down straight vertically so then they can reach the water that is acumulated in the ground. They are in spiral, in horizontal direction and growing up, not down.
This is because they arent planted in the ground, but in a pot that is too small for the right growing of the Roots in the time.
When these trees with these bad roots are planted in the ground, they can't survive too much because of this problem.
A way to revert the problem is cutting this roots that took the bad direction, including the mother root or the first big root , so it can continue growing in the good direction or branching in the right direction.
Sorry for my english, I'm from Colombia but I have read many articles of this topic because I'm very interested in growing trees in the Amazonas.
This is incredible and I love your enthusiasm
Thanks!
I love the enthusiasm. So good.
Subscribed because your enthusiasm is amazing
That's incredible 👏 😍 UA-cam stopped showing notifications for a bit. I've missed your videos. They are always so motivating 💕
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy them. I hear that people don't see the videos from time to time and I'm not sure why UA-cam changes things up all the time. Best thing I can say is to come back and check in from time to time. I appreciate your support!
That wonderful video, amazing to your 2 daughters to helping you with gardening, awesome of big log to plant to grow big tree in your yard, Good job, Mike! 😁😁👋👋🌲🌲
We'll have an update of this one soon.
@@MikeKincaid79 I'll forward to see your new video soon !😁😁👋🌿🌿
We are enjoying your journeys through your videos! love them
Awesome! Thank you! Much more to come. I have a really cool idea that popped into my head one night a few weeks ago. It's been dominating my mind lately, lol, but it will have to wait until early spring. Excited to get started!
Wow Mike, that is truly amazing my dear friend. Cannot wait to see you turn them into bonsai’s!! I had 4 very nice figs of my young tree. The leaves are just about to drop. I will be taking more cuttings after the two I took last year have rooted. Take care and be safe. Graham🇬🇧🇬🇧
Yep, about time to start taking more fig cuttings again. You take care too, Graham, and good luck with your figs.
So great work !
So proud of you
Beautiful family !
Thank you so much, Hamid!!
What a fantastic video! I am definitely going to try this. Your enthusiasm is infectious.
Awesome! Have fun with it.
I really got excited seeing the development on this video, impressive.
Thanks! I’ll have an update soon.
You've got great energy, Kid! Really enjoyed the video.
Thanks so much!
Oh my goodness! Wow! Figs are super amazing! Great fun 🤩
Hey Mike do you happen to know what type of fig bonsai you’ve got there?! Phat fig! Nice
No idea of the variety but it sure does produce great figs!
@@MikeKincaid79 😂 that’s awesome thank you 🙏 for sharing.. the girls did a good job too!👏 YESSSS
Amazing you guys, keep up the good work, mother nature is proud. Love from Switzerland.
Much love to you as well!
That’s awesome, my cuttings of mulberry, blueberry, and gardenia are getting roots to following your method with the totes.
That's so great! Glad to hear it.
Well done! I do a lot of bonsaiing and this gives me new ideas!!
I have shown this one to my grand daughters for inspiration.
Surely the wonderful girls will take up as a hobby when are grown-ups.
Love and admire their enthusiasm.
“Raise them up in the way they should go, and when they are old, they will not depart from it”. -somewhere in the Bible
Good luck to you and your granddaughters.
I like your enthusiasem and patient with your girls and also how you have them be part of the process abd feel part of it. Cheers for that you gave me lot of motivation with my kids and my plants :)
Awesome! Glad to hear it. Your kids need you and will never forget the time you spend with them.
You are an inspiration! Congrats and well done!
Thank you so much Michael!
This is a great re-watch for information and entertainment. This is a less traveled road that I will try for myself.
It's almost fool proof with a cutting this size. Have fun Loretta!
Oh wow!!! Amazing figtree cuttings!! Im excited for you!
😁
Thanks Melanie, this should be fun going forward!
This was fascinating and I love the energy!
Thanks Nick, glad you like it!
That was an exceptional growing method! I just love it 😍 very nice garden
Thanks, it was a lot of fun rooting this huge cutting!
@@MikeKincaid79 Great experiment! Is this hard wood you working on, similar to those of fiddle leaf fig? I have some. But just tiny and heaven knows, it took months and months to propagate thus its root get solidifies
Great dad teaching real stuff to his kids in a world full of BS. thank you for your video and th love you share
Haha, love the comment! "In a world full of BS" LOL. Ain't that the truth. Well, I guess the only way to turn it around is to raise the next generation better.
