- Cuttings are easy to do, but the systems to propagate them can be pricy. In this episode I will show you one of the cheapest and most efficient systems for cuttings and it is one you can make yourself for less than $10. Check out our new clothing line! http:www.freshpickedapparel.com
I like how he's always so cheerful on all his videos. And watching these videos have helped me a lot in my gardening.
Thank you!
Great video! My local mom and pop nursery sells a lighter weight version of these trays for less than a buck each. I start all my seedlings in them b/c they make watering from the bottom so much easier and they hold up for years. So many haters in these comments it’s craaaaazzzzyyy. Thank you for the always dependable info!

Could you give links to all of those items or where to buy them
You know why i love this channel? He doesn't do anything on here but stuff relating to gardening and life of a gardener. He doesnt saying anything about politics or a political view he has. He's simply doing what he created the channel for, helping others. Btw super excited for my order of seeds and Trifecta+... since all seeds were 0.99, i also end up buying more than i need but I'd rather help you out than commercialize seed markets.
It would be great if you listed the items with links on where to purchase these items. I see that you don't like to do that based on the fact that you never list them but it would be helpful for those of us outside of MI to have those details so that we could try and find them in our own areas. Even if you don't have an online link, it would be great to list the actual name.
could you do an update in a week to show us how much they've grown thanks! God Bless
Where did you get the trays??
I can't find the tray/dome/pan online for $1.50 each. Do you have a link?
Great vid up to the very end, but what's the rest of the story??? How; long do they stay covered, much further moisture might they require, and what about light for photosynthesis? Todah!
I'd like to know this to @ Sharron, also would a clear top be better for the starts to get light?
And I'm thinking the same things! I hope there's a follow-up video to explain more.
I was also confused about that so I listened to the beginning again thinking that I had just missed it. I know he said it takes 3-5 days but that seems like a long time for a plant to go without light.
Kay Frick The seed doesn’t need light to germinate. Once the plant emerges it would need light, but I’ve watched videos & read that germination in darkness is actually the preferred method. Maybe because it keeps the soil cool & moist??? 🤷♀️
@@kathleenosullivan8601 he's not growing from seed. There are cuttings in the tray.
Thank you, Luke. But what is the next step after they root??? You said a few days. Do we shake off the medium and plant them in soil, say 4 inch pots? I’d really like to try this.
I've always wanted to try this technique. I had an old aquarium air pump in a box, so used that to make a bubbler. I've had good luck with that, but the rockwool method looks so much easier.
Hum? 14 thumbs up and 0 views. Common these days. Bummer. I've watched you for years and learn a lot! Thank you for helping others. Much love to you your growing family!
Just youtube not updating fast enough. Not up to anything, promise :)
I’ve enjoyed your videos on how to grow a few different things. For years I have had coffee, cocoa, tea, and lemongrass. I’m happy to see you enjoy growing the same plants. Some of your info has been helpful.
Most suppliers of hydroponics have clear plastic domes that are quite cheap. They usually have a closable vent that lets you control humidity inside. These let a lot more light reach the plants. they are perfectly sized to fit over a 11" x22" tray.
I take a lot of cuttings to root in water. Many years ago, I bought a couple dozen four ounce glass jars with plastic lids for another purpose. I took the lids from about six of them and drilled a 5/8 inch hole in the center of the lid. When I want to root a cutting, I stick the stem down through the hole. The leaves cannot pass through the hole and stay above the water, where they belong. When the roots are about 3/4 inches long I transfer the cuttings to regular potting soil. I have been using this method for about fifteen years and have rooted African violet leaves, begonias, and many other plants.
I have learned from fifty years of rinsing sand and gravel for aquariums is not to use a five gallon bucket to rinse sand. The stream of a hose is not strong enough to lift fine silt over the top of the bucket. You can rinse for hours and the water will still not run clear. Use a three gallon bucket or a large dishpan.
Just a few tips for what they are worth.
Just got in from work and had a notification for this video upload, thanks MIgardener for sharing this simple and inexpensive propagation method with us, looking forward to trying this my friend!
Hey Luke,a really great video,very informative I ‘m definitely going to try this setup.How long do cuttings sit in rock wool and do they need fed?
Ditto...
But where are you getting your supplies that they add up to 'around' 10 dollars?
Not any store I've been to.
Thanks! Starting my first garden this year, your channel has been so helpful. Love it.
Where did you buy the materials, amazon has them for more than a buck fifty.
For a cheap plant light, Walmart sells a clamp-on goose neck lamp for about $9.00 with a socket for a medium base bulb. You can use any floodlight bulb . I find that a 5,000 Kelvin, 100 watt equivalent bulb gives the best result. You could use a 60 watt equivalent floodlight, but it would have to be a lot closer to the plants so it wouldn't cover as large an area.
What other kinds of plants can you do cuttings using this method? Also, do you have a link to Amazon for the trays you use?
Also. Where do you find these for 1.50? Could you post a link. Thanks.
I would also be interested in an answer to this question. I cannot find anything that cheap online.
Try Greenhouse Megastore - it's where I buy most all of my trays and nursery pots
@@McSnicker55 Thanks Sue.
Thank you for this helpful and informative video Luke. How do you transplant with perlite. I feel like if I pull out the cutting after the roots have grown it will be too fragile. I would love to see the transplant part in another video.
It be great if you share the link to where you purchased them. I've never seen any of these items in my are for $1.
I must be missing something ? The humidity dome you are using will not allow light to the plants ? So how will the plants survive without light.? Wouldn't it make more sense to use a clear lid ?
The folks at Bootstrap farmer make the best 1020 trays and pans. Longer lasting than the flimsy cheapo versions.
Thanks! Great find, but WAY more expensive than he mentioned. It’s 10 trays for $60.
Why don't you pinch off the large leaves? When I do cuttings, I always take off all but the smallest leaves so that there is less moisture stress.
Enjoy your vids so much!
Question: when using sand or perlite (for example) as a propagation medium, how do you prevent the medium from falling through the propagation tray hole?
Thank you!
How long do they stay I there 3 to 5 days then give light? When do u take top off
Don't you need light for the plants to grow? Doesn't that tray on top block out the light? I'm confused
You're promoting rooting at this point, not leaf development, there's enough energy stored in the plants to root without light. He also said 3-5 days in here to get them started.
@@liquidgold2735 Thank you.
Hey, Luke! Happy MLK Day! Could you post a link to your supplies? I don’t think I’ve ever seen those trays for $1.50/ea. Thx for all the great info. You are always conscious of cost & that helps me a lot!! ❤️
I agree...I haven't seen the trays or inserts at that price. I would like to know who the supplier is as well. MIGardener? Please?
Resa RM - hi! I actually searched “hydroponic supplies” and found a supplier not too far from me. Most of them support the cannabis industry, but they do have the trays & inserts for about $1.50/each. Hope this helps!!
The dollar stores in spring through fall, any garden shop, wal mart, or miner garden departments!
Do you have links to where you got all the supplies for this project. Or the brands of all of the products?
Good to know that rock wool isn't good for transplanting - I was wanting to use this but I'll save that for my indoor hydroponics!
Wow great idea!! I would like to see more videos of the cottage garden!😁
Where do you get them for 1.50? Thank you.
I hadn't considered the potential problem associated with rock wool. Thanks Luke!
I honestly learned this technique from growing medical cannabis but it really does transfer
Curious.... Do you do all propogation without light for the plants? If so, what benefit does it provide by having the cuttings in the dark?
Every winter I try to propagate my basil but it always dies. I'll try this method..
You might want to wait until the end of winter/early spring for your propagations to grow. You'd be surprised the difference that will make! Best of luck!
Nice idea! Curious about the choice of a opaque lid as opposed to a transparent lid. Dont the basil leaves need light? I think the video said it takes 3 days for basil to root. If I tried something that takes longer should I use a clear dome? Thanks!
Question on the Rock Wool...you said not good for outdoor transplanting. Hmmm how do you remove it without damaging root system...I like the start up...no hormone powders?
Sharon Abel It’s pretty easy to rip a cube off a mature plant. With a very young seedling you’d likely rip roots though, you’re right. I’ve also had a lot of success cutting my rockwool cubes into very small pieces. And those are harmless to move outside with the plant!
@@JimmyBHarvests thanks, I appreciate it!
I use Rockwool to transplant outdoors all the time....and it works just fine. A lot of what you say is overcooked.
I’m in Australia. Where do I get flood pans from that fit 50 cell trays? Is that the correct name for them?
A 1020 tray is all you need.
Thankyou! Found them on eBay. Nowhere near as cheap as U.S. unfortunately.
If you eat eggs- save your egg trays. Poke 2 or 3 pinholes with a hot pin or thin nail in each plastic cell. Set the bottom tray into the top half (it should fit near-perfect with still room for a little water.) Fill with your regular compost mix or what medium you prefer. Cover lightly with a cheesecloth. If you get your eggs in pressed cardboard containers, even better to cut them apart & bury the whole thing in the garden when they are big enough. Be careful of overwatering the cardboard ones though- you don't want them to fall apart before they go into the ground. (Once in the ground they dissolve pretty fast.) If you & your family save egg trays all year you will likely have more than enough by early Spring to reuse for years.
what would u do different for blueberries? since they root slower and would the acidity be a problem for them? thanks.
Maybe peat moss for medium, since it's more acidic? I'm using mycorrhizal fungi (Great White) and rooting hormones for my blueberry cuttings. I've never done it before, just learning as I go. :)
I propagated high bred willow for wind barriers. I usually cut them in the fall and can put them under damp earth or in a bucket of water during the winter..then pit them in water snd they will root. It was a fun process.. Great info. I have lettuce growing indoors here in Michigan the leaves are curling under around the leaf. The soil seems damp. They look good but the leaf curl. Can you advise me. Tyia
If he would use simple rooting powder(that you can buy at almost any store that has a garden center) he would get better results, also use a clear dome instead of the flood tray
I don't need that stuff for basil, but on fig and rosemary I use it and it does work great.
Some plants don’t need any fancy materials to clone. Some plants will root just from a broken branch touching soil and getting wet. Some plants need butyric acid to trigger natural hormone production and take root.
Hey there! Great video. Could you hook us up with a link/info on where we can get the heavier duty cell tray (at least) etc. Thanks.
How long does it typically take to achieve a root mass large enough to transplant ?
What temperature range is necessary ?
Can you make a video on how to grow things in warmer or colder climates than they’re typically used to? Would love it as we have to do a lot of work to get things growing here in hot Southern California, but it’s still possible.
How do you xplant from straight sand? Gonna fall apart. Food for thought: The cutting also has the same maturity of it's mother. I kept a mother in a areo-garden and even bonsai'd it. It had tinny-tiny leaves until I need more cuttings. (can check for gold in the sand. It's happened. Will be tiny/dust). I've noticed numerous sailing shirts. Race? I used to race 5o5's years back.
...so once they get roots, you pull them from the rock wool to plant in potting mix?
Can you do this with other plant cutting, let's say like tomatoes?
I also like to propogate, sometimes plants too.
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 even plants? What do you propagate besides plants? 🤔🤔🤔
Great video Luke😊 gonna try it. I have a question though. If you cant transplant the rock wool starts into a garden, I'm assuming they all just stay in pots? And they dont get the same rot if transplanted into bigger pots? TIA, Shelly
Shelly Altman if you let your plants get big enough first it’s pretty easy to take most of the rockwool off the plant. You can also start your plant in smaller cuttings from a rockwool cube and I’ve had nothing but success transplanting them outside
Do you keep this tray at a specific temperature? Have you used this setup on other types of plants?
rosemary, fig, basil, and tomato. It works like a charm!
MIgardener I’d love to see how you do fig cuttings.
@@MIgardener
I discovered a fig tree on my property and would love info on propagation.
Awesome video as usual! Thank you!😊😊
Just a quick question for this year, when do you start Your plants indoors?
What other edible plants can you propagate
Where can I purchase all the items?
I got all mine at my local hydro shop, but most garden centers should have what you need.
@@MIgardener I have never seen them at the price you have said that you got them at...even the cheap thin gauge 1020 trays and inserts are more expensive. I'd love to know your source, please? I'm curious if they ship!
It would help if you had shown a pack of the medium unopened (clearly showing the name of the product) or put a link of where to get it on the description. As many times as you mentioned the name it was difficult to understand it. Something like rockwood?
Rock WOOL
I have wool from my sheep. What if I used that?
I love those permanest tan trays. I have a few of them.
They are amazing!
Where did you purchase them?
@@julieblauvelt1649 Hi Julie. I purchased mine from Park seeds. They are not cheap, but they are so heavy duty that they should last for years.
Wouldn't flooding the reservoir to fill the cells with 1/4" of water risk root rot, as they'd be just sitting in that water? Also, I hope you'll give an update on this process and let us know what to do when the roots start going through the hole (not just hydroponics but also with the plan to get them into soil).
When do you use the humidity dome? For how long should you keep it on? Dont the starts need sunlight? Thank you
Ayesha good to keep them in the dark while they start their roots, too easy to dry out when you first cut them!
@@JimmyBHarvests thanks!
Can you use rapid rooters, or are those not sterile enough?
Tell me about those smart gloves of yours.
Don't most cuttings need light?
Can i use foam instead of rockwool
If I use rock wool, does the basil go into individual pots? You said it doesn’t do well planted in the garden? Appreciate your videos ❤️
You don't use a clear dome because they root so quickly. Basel doesn't need a rooting powder. But you said to not use rock wool if you are going to plant the propagation outside. Where do you keep all of your Basel propagation's?
Great video as usual.
I have seen vids on prop allot, I like yours the best! I get all that, all the vids stop at that! What's next! Thanks!
I do not use Rock Wool as it is not biodegradable but I love your videos.
Propogation station starts at 7:42
Why no hormone? Also won't those big leaves take away nutrients that are needed for root creation? Also do you not need nutrients added in the medium or water?
Are these items all sold at Home Depot
Great video hands down!
Thanks David!
The humidity dome blocks all the light. Won't the plants die!
Sorry this is probably out of context of the video but what do you recommend should I grow my own seeds or should I buy it plants for somewhere like star nursery. Also sorry for the late comment lol.
Dumb question, the cuttings, don't they need light?
Great vid.
Is there more plants you can do this with other then just basil? Thanks
Where do you put these trays once set up? I am assuming since the cuttings are covered they do not need light.
what happens to the rock wool once you transplant the cuttings? and would you advise using a rooting hormone?
And where are you supposed to get all the stuff
great idea!
Can you lavender cuttings with this method
My sweet basils that i planted last summer survived winter in LA and the stems are becoming woody. Should i pull it out and plant new ones or keep? Its been flowering since november
When a basil plant bolts (flowers and goes to seed) it stops producing large leaves and is basically ready to throw in the compost. Basil is grown for the leaves and though bolted basil isn’t bitter like other bolted greens, it isn’t going to produce large deep green leaves anymore and you’ll get better produce from starting a new plant.
Thanks!!!!
How do you do that
Sir I need jeromine variety of apple cuttings. I Am from Pakistan I am watching ur every Vedio according plants it amazing sir please reply
How sterile/viable are the jiffy discs? once you rehydrate them.
Where did you get the trays please add a link thanks !
I like your gloves. Who makes them?
What is the name of the insulation? "Rock wool" ? Thank you,
yes, rock wool
What time of the year would you do this?
Do you find a heat mat below is necessary?
so i dont need a clear tight fit top for humidity and light???
Any top will trap the humidity and basil at least roots so fast that light isn't necessary, the plants will be rooted and ready for transplant before the lack of light causes problems for the plants
i like to use clear to keep an eye on things, and they seem to grow better. but no, you dont need the light to start roots with basil.
The cuttings don't need light until the root, and then you can leave them off because they don't need humidity after that.
@@MIgardener Don't you need a leaf node on the stem for it to root.
Where can I buy the flood trays for $1.50 each?
Yes, where. And please do not say Amazon. :)
@@MiddleEastMilli I bought mine from Park seed, but they were a lot more expensive. They have different sizes.
check around. I got mine locally at my local hydro shop 2 years ago. They are NICE!
Drill holes in an ice cube tray!
Where can we get those parts to make that grower set upz
If I wanted to "rinse sand until clear" how would I do this? I can't use a colander....and I can not think of another way to do it. Help! Thank you!
Use an old pillow case, scrap fabric in a colander or cheesecloth. It's easy! Just wait until the water runs clear. Have fun!
I posted a reply to you. Please look at comments. I rarely comment on YT, but this man is great!
@@talliebird1731 Ohhhhhhhh! Ok! I can do that! Thank you Tallie Bird! :)
I put a square of finely woven weed mat material in the colander first then put in the sand.The weed mat holds the sand in but lets the water flow through.
I use a bucket of water. Sand sinks but the rest floats. Mix it as you fill it with water then let it settle for a couple seconds. Drain off the top and add more water. After that, rinse and repeat (pun intended)
