Great video. You are a born teacher! I have rooted in domes before, but had trouble with the transition out of the humidity dome. If possible, could you do a next step video from here. Thank you so much for your no nonsense, straight fact based teaching. I really appreaciate it and hope that your business flourishes!
Just found your channel after helping my grandma with clearing her back garden and discovering that 3 rose bushes my grandpa planted 35 years ago were still hanging on after not being fertilized for at least a decade, competing with weeds for sunlight, and a clear stint with some cane borers that must have wiggled in when grandma took a hedge trimmer to the whole kaboodle each fall (she was not the gardener of the two of them, and can't bend down to weed anymore). Two of them are in a pretty sorry state, only one skinny but luckily very healthy stem left. I'm hoping I can save them. They've got full sun now, I'll be stopping at the hardware store for some organic fertilizer tomorrow (I think I'll do a half-strength chemical fertilizer to give them an immediate boost and add a cup of manure or something to the base of each for the long-term). I'm a little nervous that I've found them too late to rescue them, but they've made it this long without me. And if nothing else, I think I'll be able to propagate some of them. Thank you so much for your advice; it's so hard to sort the hacks from the real help - I was so afraid I'd try something that'd kill them outright. You've got me feeling so much more confident that I can do this.
Thanks Rochelle. What a nice project to bring some of your grandpa's roses back to health! Sounds like you've done them some good already clearing away the competition to give them some light. Your feeding plan sounds cautious and reasonable. Other than that just stay consistent with watering while you see what it wants to do. Best of luck!
I made my own domes with used plastic bottles been great the past couple years. And now i am moving to a house with a yard can't wait to plant all my green babies
A different subject but just wanted to come on here and say thank you. Last year I had a climbing iceberg 1 of 3 planted at the same time that did not do well and I was about to dig it up thinking it had replant decease and you urged me to hang on and let it develop, well they were wise words ! It's throwing up lots of buds and doing really well this year so thanks again Jason - you were right :)
Thank you for this very thorough explanations! I've been trying to propagate our rose bush from our garden, it smells beautifully. I've been watching so many videos and now realize that I was deceived, as you pointed out in your Expose video. Appreciate your honesty and your system looks wonderful! Wishing you much continued success!
🌹Thank You for all your informational content 🌹I've always had a Love for Roses❤ I appreciate the knowledge you're providing, they are very helpful...I just started my beginner's rose collection. Gives me more reasons to continue to add more roses to the collect! Roses are so Classic. Thanks, Jason!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Impeccable timing Jason.😂 I was literally just getting ready to check my freshly flowered roses in the morning for possible cutting candidates. My current temperature at 10 pm is 16C/60F which will probably drop another 3-4 degrees by early morning. The sunny day highs are 25-28C/77-83F, about 5 degrees cooler in semi-shade. The plan is to capture as much of the warmer semi-shade temperature as possible and insulate the bottom of the dome to hold as much heat as possible until morning. The temperature is not ideal, but this is the real world at 1,400m/4,600ft elevation and fully off grid. I will wait for the afternoon clouds to provide cover at the warmer part of the day, take the cuttings, plant, and seal the dome wrapping towels around the base and top to hold the heat (careful not to cover the vents) until the sun warms the morning. I will also keep 5 gallon water jugs out in the sun and store that collected heat under the dome during the night. This method is try #1 here on the property, so it will be small and probably quite time consuming to monitor the light and temperature. As the weather and roses cooperate I will try more throughout the warmer months. Very primitive, but the anticipation is fun. I expect 20-30 percent success, maybe 50/50 at best, but only time will tell. The quick reminder was perfect.👌 Thanks🤙
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm That's my hope, just a little buffer for the colder mornings. It was 14C when the sun came up, but the cool breeze keeps the temperature down until about now which is about 9am. It's definitely close and well worth the time to clip and stick a few either way.😉
Thanks for the video. I am still struggling to propagate. I lost 100 lady banks rose cuttings because of damping off so this is a great reminder. Thanks
Really helpful Jason. Glad I found your channel! I’ve been using clear plastic boxes here in UK, they have clear (though ridged) lids so I can check on them super easily, with them upright. Will now be trying with a heated mat under (my seed starting heat mat) as some cuttings are not taking so well.
another excellent how to video, i've propagated using similar methods, 36-50-72 deep trays with tall tray domes , heat mat, fluorescent tubes. a tip to easily get cuttings from cells, I use a 6" landscape staple as forceps to lift the cell out of the tray i've been doing larger cuttings in square gal pots with 2 wire hoops supporting a clear produce bag. i will try your clear tote method this week with some rambling roses
Thank you very much Jason for suggesting gruss an teplitz in 1 of your videos.. i was lucky enough to buy it either for Trevor white or Peter Beatles.. pater beales had 20% off deal so i managed to replace my dying rose de rescht & got Grus an teplitz too .. R de rescht came with giant roots so hopefully won’t die on me .. i’m quiet chuffed with both of them thanks to you..London England 🏴
Another great video, headed to Office Depot to get one of those file boxes. I take it (3) 1" Holes drilled in the bottom (top of the dome) are needed, a point which you added in post production. Question: I was told by a very well studied Rosarian that if you trim some of the leaves of a leaflet for rooting, (i.e., there are five leaves on a branch and you trim three of them such as in your video), those two remaining leaves will shut down and not be of any use to the stem. He said roses are somewhat unique in this as it does no harm to other kinds of plants. He mentioned a lot of scientific Latin after this which I am afraid I did not retain. He is the only one I have heard this from. He said if you are trimming for rooting cuttings, take all five leaves, if not, leave all five. As this is only one opinion you might want to research this point further to prove or disprove. I should add this fellow looks after 3,000+ vintage roses so not just "some guy." Thanks again for all your videos, very helpful.
Thanks. I'm afraid that without some starting point on the research he referenced, I can't make any sense of the idea that trimming leaflets shuts down the rest of the leaf tissue. It doesn't at first blush seem to make any biological sense or match my experience at all. I can always reconsider if I saw some evidence, but for now I'll file it with other odd one-off things I hear in passing.
Thank you for educating us on the how to. My issue with alot of plants is that while they are pretty, and some varieties have massive blooming, they are not fragrant. I want a fragrant garden.
Thank you for all the details - this is so helpful! I'm inspired to try this today. Can you leave the domes in the sun, or should they be somewhat sheltered? Thanks again!
Thanks Katrina. Sheltered is better in my experience - in the sun those little domes trap heat quite quickly and that can badly stress out the cuttings (which have no real way to replenish lost moisture from their tissues)
I'll encourage you to keep going of course - there's a lot of little choices you make along the way (especially in selecting the right maturity of the stems and the right humidity to ventilation ratio) and so it's only ongoing experience that can really guide your feel for it.
Thanks for this well explained video. Can you please tell how long it takes for roots to develop after this process before it’s safe to plant them outside.
Hi Jason, could I put semi-hardwood cuttings in the shade outside in the summer rather than under domes? I'm guessing it wouldn't be as reliable but do you think some might root? I'm in North-West England.
It depends on your humidity. I wouldn't be surprised if you could, considering England can be pretty foggy. I live in the mountains of the eastern US, and I only use a humidity dome indoors. It's stays so humid outside here for most of the year, that some trees will sprout new branches from a cut log sitting on the ground.
Thank you for the videos! Since it is summer, can I place the domes outside? If so, do they need to be in full sun, partial sun? I don’t really have a set up in my house and would like to give it a shot outside. I’m in middle Tennessee so we definitely have the necessary humidity!
I see some others have asked similarly questions. Sounds like the shade may be best? I’ve not had any luck with propagating roses so I’m keeping my fingers crossed! Thank you!😊
Excellent video Jason, very helpful and concise. In your videos you mention using 'bark based soil' for propagation. Can you clarify what you are using? Pine bark, triple ground hardwood bark, or something along those lines? Thank you!
Hi Jason. Thanks. Great video. One question: in a video 4 years ago "Complete Rose Cuttings" you preferred misting over domes. In this video I see many successful domes. Please: Which method is more effective for roses, azaleas, rhododendrons, camelias and small shrubs?
They both work fine, but for slower rooting plants the domes are a lot more manageable, as the mist takes a bit of fine-tuning to match temperature and humidity.
I’ve watched so many of your videos and I’ve tried to propagate roses from cutting at least a dozen times. What happens is they always turn black and die. What am I doing wrong? They’re rotting… so is there too much water? I’d really like to be able to do this but it never works for me. Any advice? Thank you for sharing so much knowledge with us! Love your videos!
Hi Jason. Thanks. What about the light? The domes are inside. How much light the room needs to have? Temperature is clear, moist is clear. Thanks again. Great videos. The best I have found in the net.
I do add supplemental light to move things along a bit, but natural indirect light is usually okay too. There's a little bit of trial and error in setting it up. Too much light will see the cuttings yellowing and dropping leaves unusually quickly. Too little light may see slow progress rooting.
I check every day to see if they need more moisture, but moreso it's misting than a true watering. Once the majority of the cuttings are "pulling back" to confirm rooting, I transition pretty quickly away from the domes to open growing, but still in a somewhat shaded spot.
Your video is great. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Question for you is when you pot up these cuttings do you fertilize (heavily) to help them grow faster? What is that schedule like?
Yes, I start on a dilute liquid feed as soon as they've rooted. It takes me about a year and a couple of repotting steps to get the roses into saleable or planting size.
If your region experiences a shorter growing season, would it still be possible to plant these perennial cuttings outdoors and allow them to thrive before the end of the season?
Great video Jason! Do you propagate chrysanthemums? I like to change out the flowerbeds in front of my house with seasonal color, but buying that many mums can get pricey. How long does it take for mum cuttings to be ready to plant out and bloom early fall? Thanks!
I've grown them from cuttings and they're quite easy. There's loads of free info on scheduling them as a crop or for the garden, and here's a good resource I found pretty quickly: www.ballseed.com/PDF/GardenMum-CultureGuide.pdf
Thanks Sheila. That amount of ventilation seems to be about right for the amount I want to mist the cuttings. If you found it was difficult to establish or maintain condensation on the inside of the domes you could cover for a bit, but air circulation & venting is also key to success.
This is a great video! Very helpful. I have a few questions though. How many holes do you drill into the dome? What if I use a smaller dome for fewer plants, then how many holes will I need in the dome ? Do you leave the dome on the cuttings the whole time?
I am so glad I found your channel. Saskatchewanite here retiring soon and looking forward to having the time to learn this skill. When you quote ideal temperatures, are you referring to air or soil temp?
Air temp in the area of propagation (under the domes, this is in a basement room). In the very most ideal setup there would be bottom heat to a little higher than the air temperature, but during the heat of the growing season that would be tricky to do without tipping over into too warm.
I have a floribunda rose in my garden I want to propagate. If it is hot out (summer time) can I propagate right in my garden bed or do I need to do a dome as you showed in this video?
Thanks for this video, it is super helpful. I just propagated 4 rose cuttings, my very first doing them, I am using the good old coke bottle method. I see mist on the inside so that seems like good news. My question how often should I water these cuttings. They all all under one coke bottle. Question regarding soil that I used, I have potting mix, compost, and sand mixture, is that ok? I saw that combination in some videos. The cuttings plants day 4 today, can I change out the soil or is it too late? Thanks appreciate you input.
I mist more than water - just to keep the humidity up. There are no roots to take up proper irrigation. Coke bottle or milk jug is just fine of course, just a different size of humidity dome. I usually don't add compost to the potting mix, but go with what works for you - it's just a matter of having loads of microbes in the mix can sometimes turn to rot.
Thank you for sharing. I followed your advice and now I have retired Prospero by David Austin started on May 23, 2024. It’s August 3, 2024 and one rose has produced a rose bud. Should I cut bud OR allow to bloom? I’m I. The mild climate of the San Francisco Bay Area in Alameda County.
Thanks! I’ve always heard not to use flowering shoots. It’s nice to know that’s not true. I assume you do remove the flowers from the cuttings though. I should try some cuttings from my lavender. Thanks! 👍
My pleasure. I do remove the flowers when I take the cuttings - and ideally I suppose I'd take it from something like dianthus or lavender when it's in its vegetative stage, but I'd never let it hang me up from an attempt.
It's not really a gimmick, but it's not necessary either. I prefer the stability of the solid plastic, and just transplant before the plants become rootbound, like most people. Air pruning helps to prevent plants from becoming rootbound by killing off roots (by drying them out) that would run around the outside of the pot. IMO air pruning just gives you a slightly prettier rootball and a slightly more stressed plant, but people grow in air pruning pots successsfully all the time.
I think I'd agree with Christine's reply on this: I usually use standard plug trays but it wouldn't surprise me if I have some air-pruning plastic in my rotation somewhere
Jason what did you use to make the holes in the dome? I tried drilling into the "dome" and it and after the drill entered the plastic it just cracked away from the drill bit. Any ideas? Please help!
Hi Jason, I'm getting ready to propagate my floribunda iceberg rose . Am I supposed to use a sterilized medium .I have a pro mix from a big box store. And Coco pet, I got online. Which one should I use. I have been watching your videos and getting quite an education. Thank you, Steve
It's not the best idea - higher than necessary rates can actually slow down healthy roots. What I've seen is excess callus formation that just doesn't seem to want to develop further.
I live in Central Florida. Temperatures here are never 72 for 3 weeks. Can you share ideas on how I can start rose cuttings using the dome & not get excessive rot.
It's okay if you're a little above the ideal temp for prop - there are loads of rose growers and propagators in Florida. Your humidity is high enough perhaps to skip or reduce the dome requirements, but I suppose you'd have to give some attention to a shady location with as favorable a temperature as you can manage. I go indoors for best temp control, but even in a carport or on the shady side of a house may be doable.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm OK, I can work that in. I grow tomatoes all summer long in the afternoon shade of a big birch tree. Everyone say it won't work but it's been 6 years so far. Thank you. I'm going to give it a try and your tips will give me something to monitor for.
Hi Kenneth. I've added a couple of trays to my propagation ideas list on Amazon amzn.to/3CkHSt9 and I should also say that if it's easier for you to source, a 50-cell tray isn't all that different for spacing and might be a good compromise between small and larger rose cuttings.
Hey im pretty new to prepagating cuttings inside. Im trying to prepagate some butterfly bush cuttings, but what is best with the humidity dome? Direct sunlight for a couple of hours a day or does it have to be indirect sunlight?
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm ah okay, if the butterfly bush cutting rooted can i then put in into direct sunlight? Sorry for asking many questions, but im basically new to all of this 🙂
Yes, I've played with the amount of foliage quite a lot. Trimming makes it a lot easier to fit more plants into a tight growing area without having the leaves overlap each other. Overlap of foliage has often led to rot, so I try to strike a balance.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm I see; very interesting. Thanks! I'd always presumed that leaf trimming was to reduce water loss, or to get closer to the plant's natural foliage:root ratio.
I started doing it for the first reason you mentioned: reducing water loss (and because that's the way I was taught!) But I've experimented with leaving more on, and so long as humidity is managed, I never saw any issues with desiccation from too much foliage area. I have definitely seen issues with tight/overlapping foliage turning to mush with the high moisture under the dome though.
I tried this with Alberta wild rose in late May, made sure the soil was not soggy (drops were not squeezing out), 72c tray, domed it, in the shade under a chair on the deck (maybe it was too dark there) and they all rotted, 100%. Not sure what I did wrong. Maybe some varieties cannot propagate by tip cuttings past a certain date? I am in Alberta and wanting to try propagating some of my Manitoba Morden roses (very few varieties can overwinter here in zone 3a) - do you think it's possible? There are no rose propagators in Alberta (that I know of), so I am thinking probably not, as this seems to be pretty much semi-desert country and we have a problem with water/rain as I have recently found out. For some odd reason most of the operations here just get their plugs in from BC, I am thinking it's the desert-like climate. Backyard propagators are few and far between here.
Thanks Maisie. Wild roses might be one of the cases when seed propagation makes a lot of sense - you can get loads of seedlings with minimal effort. Yes, the Morden series propagates relatively well from cuttings. It's true that BC supplies a lot of the horticulture industry in Alberta because we're not too far away to ship in and have a more favorable climate (here on the coast) to get a faster start on things with less heat to add.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm I will try seeds, thank you. I bought a couple Morden roses, will try a couple cuttings (they are pretty small and not much material there, lol)! They cost a pretty penny in Alberta ($23 per gal pot), and can't find rose plug producer here! I used to live in Agassiz, zone 8B round 20 years ago, I could grow anything there. I sure miss BC, it is so very hard to grow anything here! Up here things like 2nd year Nanking cherry sell well rurally from backyards (people need a good reason to travel for a plant), but I would like to try some hardy unpatented roses, see if they draw the trips to my place and sell.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Partly retired here - winding down, so just want to grow the stuff that will really draw on their own, without having to have a couple thousand plants to water in this desert, lol. We haven't had a drop of water in over 2 months here since snowmelt, not sure the well could handle the water needs anyhow for a huge inventory. Sure thinking though a few hardy roses might be a great addition to Nanking and some of the nicer fruit bushes that overwinter here. I'll try some cuttings off the Mordens I got and see if they overwinter with such a short window to try to root them here. Love seeing your work - it's always good to see Canadians do well at this!
I read to do lavender cuttings before they put up flowers. Do you find this to be the case? Because if not I'm about to go lavender cutting crazy. Haha!
I got the roses to root but what do I do with it over the winter? Right now they are in a little pot under a little dome outside. They only started rooting about a month ago. I do have a grow tent inside should I move them in or plant them?
That depends a lot on your climate. My area is (relatively) so I continue to grow out in the unheated greenhouses and just shelter them there. In a harsher winter climate you may have to decide whether to grow them (active) indoors with supplemental light usually, or to put them into a cooler sheltered location to hold them dormant. Planting them this small seems a little risky to me, and I'd rather grow them into a 6 or 8" pot before putting into the ground.
@FraserValleyRoseFarm I am in alberta so we get cold even I think the garage would get to cold in a pot because it's not heated. Will it do anything to them if they don't go dormant for the winter if I keep then in a tent? I am just so excited they rooted at all I just want to go around and take cuttings of every rose I see next year
I won't say all, but many. If it has a stem (some plants are more "basal") it works easily on many annuals & perennials especially. Trees and shrubs too, but usually taking a longer rotting period and sometimes a specific timing.
Yes. It's been my practice to use 3-4 nodes, but 2 would be fine. I've even heard from people doing single node cuttings! Come to think of it, that's make a pretty neat video...
Do you think you can grow roses like this from cuttings from a florist? I've taken some cuttings from my roses as well as tried to chop up cut stems from a florist to no avail. They do grow new leaves sometimes, but when I've pulled them out to check for roots (because I've been assuming new leaves mean new roots) they have never had roots and then die quickly afterwards. Thank you for your helpful video and any advice you can offer!!
Okay, thank you@@FraserValleyRoseFarm ! I took four cuttings from the florist roses and one is growing new leaves (one of the two that didn't have leaves on the cutting) and the two with leaves still have leaves, so I'm hopeful to see something happen, maybe in a couple weeks!
Hi Jason, is the size of the pot important for propagating cuttings? Shd the small cell type, like yours, be used or could 4 inch pots be used? I was wondering if 2 or 3 cuttings could be put in a 4 inch pot as I have quite a few of those I'd like to repurpose. Thanks for your informative and helpful videos!
That would be fine. Pot size doesn't matter. The cutting just needs the right environmental conditions, and as long as it gets that, it will usually root. I remember many years ago, before I understood much about plants, a big storm came through my area and knocked down a bunch of branches and whole trees. Somehow, a sugar maple branch about 3 feet long and slightly bigger around than a pencil, fell and stuck into the ground (skinny side down, so it was technically a cutting that got planted upside down) underneath the tree, where it had shade. By the time I got around to pulling it out of the ground, it had rooted and made some new leaves, and had me a little confused lol.
Thanks Sandy. You can choose between the pot and tray sizes and be successful either way. For a long time I was doing 9cm pots with 2 cuttings per pot and it worked fine. The cell trays are easier to fill and I fit more cells (especially the 72s) into the same space, so it's working for my scale of production but there's loads of flexibility on it.
Minimal intensity. You could even get away with using an old t5 flourescent light. A light that's too intense will kill your cutting just like direct sunlight.
Lower than seedlings in general, but not zero. You may have to play with the height and schedule to see what gives you the best results. Ours are 2-3ft above the cuttings and run 6-8 hours total (morning and evening, when there's less window light)
@FraserValleyRoseFarm I did manage to find some at a store. Thank you so much for your reply! I followed your instructions, and hopefully, I'll have some new roses soon!
In general rot is going to be because of too much moisture around the cuttings or contamination of microbes in the soil, tools or carried in on the cuttings themselves. Some people treat with a disinfectant to reduce the risk, but I find that I get a good rate of success just controlling the moisture and using clean tools and a clean potting soil.
It's situational to your climate, but yes my best results come in late spring/early summer when there's loads of fresh semi-hardwood growth and there's still time to root before winter. Longer topic about grafted roses. Here's my video on it: ruclips.net/video/ztNP_52of9c/видео.html
Personally I'd suggest that you switch over to propagating with potting soil rather than water. The rootlets that develop under water are physically different than roots in soil - and often you'll see some die back related to the transition. So IMO why not start with potting soil and then you avoid the transition.

Thank you so much for your no nonsense, straight fact based teaching. I really appreaciate it and hope that your business flourishes!
Thanks. I'll note down the video topic.
I came here to ask for next steps too! I can get roots but the transition out of domes is what I need help with. Thanks!
I also would like to know how long in the dome.
I've had the same problem. Cuttings root but then die.

Your channel is fantastic and your presentation is excellent as always. Thank you for sharing your expertise!
Just found your channel after helping my grandma with clearing her back garden and discovering that 3 rose bushes my grandpa planted 35 years ago were still hanging on after not being fertilized for at least a decade, competing with weeds for sunlight, and a clear stint with some cane borers that must have wiggled in when grandma took a hedge trimmer to the whole kaboodle each fall (she was not the gardener of the two of them, and can't bend down to weed anymore).
Two of them are in a pretty sorry state, only one skinny but luckily very healthy stem left.

Impeccable timing Jason.😂
I was literally just getting ready to check my freshly flowered roses in the morning for possible cutting candidates.
My current temperature at 10 pm is 16C/60F which will probably drop another 3-4 degrees by early morning. The sunny day highs are 25-28C/77-83F, about 5 degrees cooler in semi-shade.
The plan is to capture as much of the warmer semi-shade temperature as possible and insulate the bottom of the dome to hold as much heat as possible until morning. The temperature is not ideal, but this is the real world at 1,400m/4,600ft elevation and fully off grid. I will wait for the afternoon clouds to provide cover at the warmer part of the day, take the cuttings, plant, and seal the dome wrapping towels around the base and top to hold the heat (careful not to cover the vents) until the sun warms the morning. I will also keep 5 gallon water jugs out in the sun and store that collected heat under the dome during the night.

Thanks - I try! Your temperature regimen sounds promising as your natural temperatures (averaged) aren't far off the mark for optimum rooting.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm That's my hope, just a little buffer for the colder mornings. It was 14C when the sun came up, but the cool breeze keeps the temperature down until about now which is about 9am.

I always learn so much from your videos. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much!
Thank you very much Jason for suggesting gruss an teplitz in 1 of your videos.. i was lucky enough to buy it either for Trevor white or Peter Beatles.. pater beales had 20% off deal so i managed to replace my dying rose de rescht & got Grus an teplitz too .. R de rescht came with giant roots so hopefully won’t die on me .. i’m quiet chuffed with both of them thanks to you..London England 🏴
Great finds!
New subscriber. I'm very impressed with your videos. You explain things so well and so clearly. Big thumbs-up!
Another great video, headed to Office Depot to get one of those file boxes. I take it (3) 1" Holes drilled in the bottom (top of the dome) are needed, a point which you added in post production. Question: I was told by a very well studied Rosarian that if you trim some of the leaves of a leaflet for rooting, (i.e., there are five leaves on a branch and you trim three of them such as in your video), those two remaining leaves will shut down and not be of any use to the stem. He said roses are somewhat unique in this as it does no harm to other kinds of plants. He mentioned a lot of scientific Latin after this which I am afraid I did not retain. He is the only one I have heard this from. He said if you are trimming for rooting cuttings, take all five leaves, if not, leave all five. As this is only one opinion you might want to research this point further to prove or disprove. I should add this fellow looks after 3,000+ vintage roses so not just "some guy." Thanks again for all your videos, very helpful.
Thanks. I'm afraid that without some starting point on the research he referenced, I can't make any sense of the idea that trimming leaflets shuts down the rest of the leaf tissue. It doesn't at first blush seem to make any biological sense or match my experience at all. I can always reconsider if I saw some evidence, but for now I'll file it with other odd one-off things I hear in passing.
Thank you for educating us on the how to.
My issue with alot of plants is that while they are pretty, and some varieties have massive blooming, they are not fragrant.
I want a fragrant garden.
Thanks. You definitely have to select carefully if you want fragrance!
Thanks so much. I’ve been trying to propagate cuttings, but mine always seem to fail. Nevertheless, I’m going to keep trying.
Very beautiful information ☺️ lk
Looking forward to see those new roses :)
Thank you! Can you do a video or tell us here about next steps after the roots form?
Most encouraging! (By the way, when you said "agastache" the auto-transcript came out as "egg stacky"!) I'm off to buy a dome (one to start with).
Thank you!
Thank you for all the details - this is so helpful! I'm inspired to try this today. Can you leave the domes in the sun, or should they be somewhat sheltered? Thanks again!
Thanks Katrina. Sheltered is better in my experience - in the sun those little domes trap heat quite quickly and that can badly stress out the cuttings (which have no real way to replenish lost moisture from their tissues)
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you - and I enjoy all your videos!
Thanks ! great vid!
Great info! I've tried to propagate roses before with no success. Not sure what I'm doing wrong
I'll encourage you to keep going of course - there's a lot of little choices you make along the way (especially in selecting the right maturity of the stems and the right humidity to ventilation ratio) and so it's only ongoing experience that can really guide your feel for it.
Thank you 😀
merci beaucoup
Thanks for this well explained video. Can you please tell how long it takes for roots to develop after this process before it’s safe to plant them outside.
Hi Jason, could I put semi-hardwood cuttings in the shade outside in the summer rather than under domes? I'm guessing it wouldn't be as reliable but do you think some might root? I'm in North-West England.
It depends on your humidity. I wouldn't be surprised if you could, considering England can be pretty foggy. I live in the mountains of the eastern US, and I only use a humidity dome indoors. It's stays so humid outside here for most of the year, that some trees will sprout new branches from a cut log sitting on the ground.
Thanks Christine, I'll give it a whirl. If it doesn't work I haven't really lost anything👍
Worth a try if you find the right spot in the garden!
Thank you for the videos! Since it is summer, can I place the domes outside? If so, do they need to be in full sun, partial sun? I don’t really have a set up in my house and would like to give it a shot outside. I’m in middle Tennessee so we definitely have the necessary humidity!
I see some others have asked similarly questions. Sounds like the shade may be best? I’ve not had any luck with propagating roses so I’m keeping my fingers crossed! Thank you!😊
Thank you
Excellent video Jason, very helpful and concise. In your videos you mention using 'bark based soil' for propagation. Can you clarify what you are using? Pine bark, triple ground hardwood bark, or something along those lines? Thank you!
Locally it's composted fir bark, but I've been told that the bulk bark materials all vary just about entirely by region.
Hi Jason. Thanks. Great video. One question: in a video 4 years ago "Complete Rose Cuttings" you preferred misting over domes. In this video I see many successful domes. Please: Which method is more effective for roses, azaleas, rhododendrons, camelias and small shrubs?
They both work fine, but for slower rooting plants the domes are a lot more manageable, as the mist takes a bit of fine-tuning to match temperature and humidity.
I’ve watched so many of your videos and I’ve tried to propagate roses from cutting at least a dozen times.
What happens is they always turn black and die. What am I doing wrong? They’re rotting… so is there too much water? I’d really like to be able to do this but it never works for me.
Any advice? Thank you for sharing so much knowledge with us! Love your videos!
Hi Jason. Thanks. What about the light? The domes are inside. How much light the room needs to have? Temperature is clear, moist is clear. Thanks again. Great videos. The best I have found in the net.
I do add supplemental light to move things along a bit, but natural indirect light is usually okay too. There's a little bit of trial and error in setting it up. Too much light will see the cuttings yellowing and dropping leaves unusually quickly. Too little light may see slow progress rooting.
Hello !
I watch you grown the rose from seeds !
Do you sales rises seed or malls rose ? I love roses !
Thanks to share !👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for this video. Would it go also without the hormone?
Great channel. (QUESTIONS) Could you talk about how much and often you water those domes and how to change from dome to air.. Thanks
I check every day to see if they need more moisture, but moreso it's misting than a true watering. Once the majority of the cuttings are "pulling back" to confirm rooting, I transition pretty quickly away from the domes to open growing, but still in a somewhat shaded spot.
when did you start rooting them ?
2 to 3 weeks before the video.
Your video is great. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Question for you is when you pot up these cuttings do you fertilize (heavily) to help them grow faster? What is that schedule like?
Yes, I start on a dilute liquid feed as soon as they've rooted. It takes me about a year and a couple of repotting steps to get the roses into saleable or planting size.
If your region experiences a shorter growing season, would it still be possible to plant these perennial cuttings outdoors and allow them to thrive before the end of the season?
Thanks Kim. I suspect yes, but it would be important to get as early a start as possible.
Great video Jason! Do you propagate chrysanthemums? I like to change out the flowerbeds in front of my house with seasonal color, but buying that many mums can get pricey. How long does it take for mum cuttings to be ready to plant out and bloom early fall? Thanks!
I've grown them from cuttings and they're quite easy. There's loads of free info on scheduling them as a crop or for the garden, and here's a good resource I found pretty quickly: www.ballseed.com/PDF/GardenMum-CultureGuide.pdf
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you!
What about the holes in the domes, do you cover the holes part of the time or always leave them uncovered?
I was going to ask the same question.
Thanks Sheila. That amount of ventilation seems to be about right for the amount I want to mist the cuttings. If you found it was difficult to establish or maintain condensation on the inside of the domes you could cover for a bit, but air circulation & venting is also key to success.
This is a great video! Very helpful. I have a few questions though. How many holes do you drill into the dome? What if I use a smaller dome for fewer plants, then how many holes will I need in the dome ? Do you leave the dome on the cuttings the whole time?
I go with 3 holes of 1" diameter with a spade bit on my drill. I do leave the dome on until there's early rooting.
I am so glad I found your channel. Saskatchewanite here retiring soon and looking forward to having the time to learn this skill. When you quote ideal temperatures, are you referring to air or soil temp?
Air temp in the area of propagation (under the domes, this is in a basement room). In the very most ideal setup there would be bottom heat to a little higher than the air temperature, but during the heat of the growing season that would be tricky to do without tipping over into too warm.
Your instructionals keep getting better. 🫡
Thanks!
I have a floribunda rose in my garden I want to propagate. If it is hot out (summer time) can I propagate right in my garden bed or do I need to do a dome as you showed in this video?
I'd be willing to try in the garden bed, and I know some people who swear by it - but for me I have more consistent results under mist or dome.
what kind of plug tray do you have your roses in? Summer Song! That's awesome! I'm jealous. 😆
I've been using 32 cell, 50 cell and 72 cell - all depending on the size of the cuttings.
Thanks for this video, it is super helpful. I just propagated 4 rose cuttings, my very first doing them, I am using the good old coke bottle method. I see mist on the inside so that seems like good news. My question how often should I water these cuttings. They all all under one coke bottle. Question regarding soil that I used, I have potting mix, compost, and sand mixture, is that ok? I saw that combination in some videos. The cuttings plants day 4 today, can I change out the soil or is it too late? Thanks appreciate you input.
I mist more than water - just to keep the humidity up. There are no roots to take up proper irrigation. Coke bottle or milk jug is just fine of course, just a different size of humidity dome. I usually don't add compost to the potting mix, but go with what works for you - it's just a matter of having loads of microbes in the mix can sometimes turn to rot.
Thank you for sharing. I followed your advice and now I have retired Prospero by David Austin started on May 23, 2024. It’s August 3, 2024 and one rose has produced a rose bud. Should I cut bud OR allow to bloom? I’m I. The mild climate of the San Francisco Bay Area in Alameda County.
Marginally it might be better for the rose to disbud, but no major harm either if you want to enjoy the bloom.
Great instruction video. Just one question, is there any venting in the dome?
Yes, I drilled 3x 1" holes in the clear portion (the top, once inverted as I usually use them)
Thanks! I’ve always heard not to use flowering shoots. It’s nice to know that’s not true. I assume you do remove the flowers from the cuttings though. I should try some cuttings from my lavender. Thanks! 👍
My pleasure. I do remove the flowers when I take the cuttings - and ideally I suppose I'd take it from something like dianthus or lavender when it's in its vegetative stage, but I'd never let it hang me up from an attempt.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks! Great to know 👍
When do your part on into bigger pots?
I don’t have rooting powder but all my rose cuttings grow in the ground without it
I’m looking up 72 cell flats now, ready to take the plunge and start. What do you think of air pruning style ones? Is it a gimmick?
It's not really a gimmick, but it's not necessary either. I prefer the stability of the solid plastic, and just transplant before the plants become rootbound, like most people. Air pruning helps to prevent plants from becoming rootbound by killing off roots (by drying them out) that would run around the outside of the pot. IMO air pruning just gives you a slightly prettier rootball and a slightly more stressed plant, but people grow in air pruning pots successsfully all the time.
I think I'd agree with Christine's reply on this: I usually use standard plug trays but it wouldn't surprise me if I have some air-pruning plastic in my rotation somewhere
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you both for the replies!
Jason what did you use to make the holes in the dome? I tried drilling into the "dome" and it and after the drill entered the plastic it just cracked away from the drill bit. Any ideas? Please help!
I used a spade bit on my cordless drill - slowly!
could you comment on the temperature and humidity? maybe the vpd values you target
I'm not using any meters or automation - just making sure I can visually see some condensation inside the domes, which makes it likely to be above 90%
Hi Jason, I'm getting ready to propagate my floribunda iceberg rose . Am I supposed to use a sterilized medium .I have a pro mix from a big box store. And Coco pet, I got online. Which one should I use. I have been watching your videos and getting quite an education. Thank you, Steve
Thanks Steven. I use straight up ProMix or Sunshine mix with no problems.
Thank you
Hi Jason, I wonder if it is possible to take cuttings from grafted roses. So far, my trials have been unsuccessful.
Yes, many of my stock roses are grafted - and I've done well with cuttings from (most of) them
Interesting, can I use a stronger IBA (rooting hormone) than necessary, for example use hardwood strength for softwood ?
It's not the best idea - higher than necessary rates can actually slow down healthy roots. What I've seen is excess callus formation that just doesn't seem to want to develop further.
I live in Central Florida. Temperatures here are never 72 for 3 weeks. Can you share ideas on how I can start rose cuttings using the dome & not get excessive rot.
It's okay if you're a little above the ideal temp for prop - there are loads of rose growers and propagators in Florida. Your humidity is high enough perhaps to skip or reduce the dome requirements, but I suppose you'd have to give some attention to a shady location with as favorable a temperature as you can manage. I go indoors for best temp control, but even in a carport or on the shady side of a house may be doable.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm OK, I can work that in. I grow tomatoes all summer long in the afternoon shade of a big birch tree. Everyone say it won't work but it's been 6 years so far. Thank you. I'm going to give it a try and your tips will give me something to monitor for.
Could I use plastic milk containers as a dome?
Definitely. Same method, just a smaller dome.
Jayson
Trying to follow this video but I cannot Find the 32 cell tray you are using. Any leads?
Another great learning video..Thanks
Hi Kenneth. I've added a couple of trays to my propagation ideas list on Amazon amzn.to/3CkHSt9 and I should also say that if it's easier for you to source, a 50-cell tray isn't all that different for spacing and might be a good compromise between small and larger rose cuttings.
Do you use heating mats with indoor propagation ?
Sort of. There's heat directed under the whole table rather than a mat.
Hey im pretty new to prepagating cuttings inside. Im trying to prepagate some butterfly bush cuttings, but what is best with the humidity dome? Direct sunlight for a couple of hours a day or does it have to be indirect sunlight?
Indirect is nice because it doesn't heat up the dome too much - short periods of sun might be okay though too. It's a bit of trial and error.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm ah okay, if the butterfly bush cutting rooted can i then put in into direct sunlight? Sorry for asking many questions, but im basically new to all of this 🙂
Nice vid.
Have you compared leaving the full foliage vs trimming it?
Yes, I've played with the amount of foliage quite a lot. Trimming makes it a lot easier to fit more plants into a tight growing area without having the leaves overlap each other. Overlap of foliage has often led to rot, so I try to strike a balance.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm I see; very interesting. Thanks!
I'd always presumed that leaf trimming was to reduce water loss, or to get closer to the plant's natural foliage:root ratio.
I started doing it for the first reason you mentioned: reducing water loss (and because that's the way I was taught!) But I've experimented with leaving more on, and so long as humidity is managed, I never saw any issues with desiccation from too much foliage area. I have definitely seen issues with tight/overlapping foliage turning to mush with the high moisture under the dome though.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks for sharing your experience.
Hi Jason, can you propagate plants in orbeez?
Sure.
I tried this with Alberta wild rose in late May, made sure the soil was not soggy (drops were not squeezing out), 72c tray, domed it, in the shade under a chair on the deck (maybe it was too dark there) and they all rotted, 100%. Not sure what I did wrong. Maybe some varieties cannot propagate by tip cuttings past a certain date?
I am in Alberta and wanting to try propagating some of my Manitoba Morden roses (very few varieties can overwinter here in zone 3a) - do you think it's possible? There are no rose propagators in Alberta (that I know of), so I am thinking probably not, as this seems to be pretty much semi-desert country and we have a problem with water/rain as I have recently found out. For some odd reason most of the operations here just get their plugs in from BC, I am thinking it's the desert-like climate. Backyard propagators are few and far between here.
Thanks Maisie. Wild roses might be one of the cases when seed propagation makes a lot of sense - you can get loads of seedlings with minimal effort. Yes, the Morden series propagates relatively well from cuttings. It's true that BC supplies a lot of the horticulture industry in Alberta because we're not too far away to ship in and have a more favorable climate (here on the coast) to get a faster start on things with less heat to add.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm I will try seeds, thank you.
I bought a couple Morden roses, will try a couple cuttings (they are pretty small and not much material there, lol)! They cost a pretty penny in Alberta ($23 per gal pot), and can't find rose plug producer here!
I used to live in Agassiz, zone 8B round 20 years ago, I could grow anything there. I sure miss BC, it is so very hard to grow anything here!
Up here things like 2nd year Nanking cherry sell well rurally from backyards (people need a good reason to travel for a plant), but I would like to try some hardy unpatented roses, see if they draw the trips to my place and sell.
I wish you the best with your growing and selling Maisie. I think it's a really good plan to widen out your assortment and see what draws customers,
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Partly retired here - winding down, so just want to grow the stuff that will really draw on their own, without having to have a couple thousand plants to water in this desert, lol. We haven't had a drop of water in over 2 months here since snowmelt, not sure the well could handle the water needs anyhow for a huge inventory. Sure thinking though a few hardy roses might be a great addition to Nanking and some of the nicer fruit bushes that overwinter here. I'll try some cuttings off the Mordens I got and see if they overwinter with such a short window to try to root them here.
Love seeing your work - it's always good to see Canadians do well at this!
Where can I buy the trays and tools that you use? Thanks!
I have some listed on the Amazon link below the video
I read to do lavender cuttings before they put up flowers. Do you find this to be the case? Because if not I'm about to go lavender cutting crazy. Haha!
Timing would be a little better before flowering, but I've been successful both ways.
Hi Jason, can hybrid tea own root roses survive zone 5a winters (with protection)?
It very much depends on the variety. If you know the name of the rose you can search it's rated cold hardiness zone
I got the roses to root but what do I do with it over the winter? Right now they are in a little pot under a little dome outside. They only started rooting about a month ago. I do have a grow tent inside should I move them in or plant them?
That depends a lot on your climate. My area is (relatively) so I continue to grow out in the unheated greenhouses and just shelter them there. In a harsher winter climate you may have to decide whether to grow them (active) indoors with supplemental light usually, or to put them into a cooler sheltered location to hold them dormant. Planting them this small seems a little risky to me, and I'd rather grow them into a 6 or 8" pot before putting into the ground.
@FraserValleyRoseFarm I am in alberta so we get cold even I think the garage would get to cold in a pot because it's not heated. Will it do anything to them if they don't go dormant for the winter if I keep then in a tent?
I am just so excited they rooted at all I just want to go around and take cuttings of every rose I see next year
So can we use this method for any tree plant or shurbs?
I won't say all, but many. If it has a stem (some plants are more "basal") it works easily on many annuals & perennials especially. Trees and shrubs too, but usually taking a longer rotting period and sometimes a specific timing.
@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you so much for your reply. I will give it a go anyway and u0date this section. Watching your videos from the UK 😊
Yay
can you propagate roses with only 2 nodes, then?
Yes. It's been my practice to use 3-4 nodes, but 2 would be fine. I've even heard from people doing single node cuttings! Come to think of it, that's make a pretty neat video...
Do you think you can grow roses like this from cuttings from a florist? I've taken some cuttings from my roses as well as tried to chop up cut stems from a florist to no avail. They do grow new leaves sometimes, but when I've pulled them out to check for roots (because I've been assuming new leaves mean new roots) they have never had roots and then die quickly afterwards. Thank you for your helpful video and any advice you can offer!!
Yes, it can be done but cut roses aren't the best source for cuttings, and so it's hit or miss.
Okay, thank you@@FraserValleyRoseFarm ! I took four cuttings from the florist roses and one is growing new leaves (one of the two that didn't have leaves on the cutting) and the two with leaves still have leaves, so I'm hopeful to see something happen, maybe in a couple weeks!
Where can I find the Arthur Bell Rose sold in the U.S. Thank you
Sorry I don't really keep up on US suppliers, as most don't ship into Canada.
Was that with lights under the domes, or indirect light?
Both
🙏🏻
Hi Jason, is the size of the pot important for propagating cuttings? Shd the small cell type, like yours, be used or could 4 inch pots be used? I was wondering if 2 or 3 cuttings could be put in a 4 inch pot as I have quite a few of those I'd like to repurpose. Thanks for your informative and helpful videos!
That would be fine. Pot size doesn't matter. The cutting just needs the right environmental conditions, and as long as it gets that, it will usually root. I remember many years ago, before I understood much about plants, a big storm came through my area and knocked down a bunch of branches and whole trees. Somehow, a sugar maple branch about 3 feet long and slightly bigger around than a pencil, fell and stuck into the ground (skinny side down, so it was technically a cutting that got planted upside down) underneath the tree, where it had shade. By the time I got around to pulling it out of the ground, it had rooted and made some new leaves, and had me a little confused lol.
Thanks Sandy. You can choose between the pot and tray sizes and be successful either way. For a long time I was doing 9cm pots with 2 cuttings per pot and it worked fine. The cell trays are easier to fill and I fit more cells (especially the 72s) into the same space, so it's working for my scale of production but there's loads of flexibility on it.
Is the promix the fpo biostimulant one?
No, I've been buying the one without
@Fraser Valley Rose Farm the all purpose one? I have berger 6 and 7 on hand. Ill try to get some promix
Can you tell us light requirement?
Minimal intensity. You could even get away with using an old t5 flourescent light. A light that's too intense will kill your cutting just like direct sunlight.
Lower than seedlings in general, but not zero. You may have to play with the height and schedule to see what gives you the best results. Ours are 2-3ft above the cuttings and run 6-8 hours total (morning and evening, when there's less window light)
Can I use willow water instead of rooting hormone?
Worth a try!
Can roots grow on rose cuttings in water. I am just experimenting to see if a rose cuttings can actually develop roots in water
They can, but I generally find using a potting soil easier.
What rooting hormones do you use?
It's a talc based rooting powder called StimRoot. Likely the same as Hormodin/Hormex at 0.3 to 0.4% IBA
Do I have to use rooting hormone to propagate roses? I don't have any. Will they root without it?
For fastest results, but it's still possible to succeed without if the conditions are good
@FraserValleyRoseFarm I did manage to find some at a store. Thank you so much for your reply! I followed your instructions, and hopefully, I'll have some new roses soon!
I've been trying to do roses but they keep rotting what am I doing
In general rot is going to be because of too much moisture around the cuttings or contamination of microbes in the soil, tools or carried in on the cuttings themselves. Some people treat with a disinfectant to reduce the risk, but I find that I get a good rate of success just controlling the moisture and using clean tools and a clean potting soil.
Are rose cuttings in late spring more successful than the hardwoods in winter? Why are the roses sold at nurseries all grafted?
I have better luck propagating my roses in fall. By spring they are producing buds.
It's situational to your climate, but yes my best results come in late spring/early summer when there's loads of fresh semi-hardwood growth and there's still time to root before winter. Longer topic about grafted roses. Here's my video on it: ruclips.net/video/ztNP_52of9c/видео.html
Dear sir I cut the stem from the rose put in water untill it gets tiny little roots but the moment I plant it it dies ,what do I do
Personally I'd suggest that you switch over to propagating with potting soil rather than water. The rootlets that develop under water are physically different than roots in soil - and often you'll see some die back related to the transition. So IMO why not start with potting soil and then you avoid the transition.
I don't know why but RUclips only let me watch the into and setup, it cut the video off at 2:04 for me. I hope i got the jist
Oh, that's really bizarre. If you need any other info, I have more videos on the topic or you can try again on a different device or browser.
