Hi, thank you that we didn’t have to wait 45 days!! 😃 to see the outcome!
You are so welcome Grace 🥰😄🥰
What time of year did you do this? Do you think summer would be a good time to try?
OMG I can't believe how well this worked. I have a one year old potted mulberry plant that was about 3 feet tall before pruning. It grew berries for the first time this year but only had 6 berries on it. After picking them I used this method about 10 days ago it now has over 100 berries on it. :)
That is quick 🤯
Wow that's awesome! How did you take care of it? I'm new to mulberries and i want to plant one from cuttings because i don't have an ancess for a whole potted tree and i know it's gonna take ages till i get to the stage that i can harvest some berries 😂 so any suggestions snd recommendations for taking care of it? Frequency of watering, does it love heat or shade or humidity, do i have to use fertilizer and specific soil or what? And thank you for sharing! Happy harvesting!
From Philippines here and own an Illinois mulberry variety. This method is true and tested even on potted trees. We also use organic fertilizer like dried rabbit droppings or vermicast for bigger berries and faster production. Recommend this video 👍👍👍
Hey I wonder will this work for che fruit and figs too ?
@@Scperma I'm not sure about that since we don't have che trees here, we do have fig trees, but it's not common and of tropical variety and we just leave them alone. I can only vouch with the technique in this video though. But I have to say, the berries we harvest is double in size compared in the video. Pretty sure the organic fertilizer helps. 👍
Edit: I also keep the size of my potted Mulberry tree to about 6-7ft. tall when I prune for easy harvest.
@@jackrespi8369 what size of the pot you use for potted mulberry?
@@etradez Hi, It's in an old plastic paint bucket, I think it's 16 liters size, the one that comes with a curved metal handle. I just drilled a couple of holes for drainage, but some of the roots came out of them now. I just leave it, I think it's happier that way.😊
Edit The size of the potholes I added is about the size of a bottle cap, I would say smaller even. One at the bottom and four on the lower sides of the bucket.
It’s almost July. It’s going to get really hot. Would you recommend that I do this now? Does it have to have berries?
Thanks for showing the whole 45 days in one video! This reminds me of pulling the flowers off a young pepper or tomato plant so it builds more structure before you let it go into full production. That's always worked pretty well for me.
You are so welcome! And yes, I totally agree!
I never thought of this with tomatoes and capsicum!!! Thank you
This is one of the best RUclips videos I've seen. It was so extremely helpful and my daughter and I are headed out to prune our mulberry now. We're in Florida too. I wish you were my neighbor! I've subscribed to your channel. : )
Mulberry leaves (tender young ones) are edible and great in a stir fry!
And the big ones can be dried and used for teas!!
Awhile back I asked you about my mulberry that had stopped growing. You suggested a hard prune. It stopped at about 4' and I took it down to 18" before it leafed out in the spring. It's grown more in the least 4 months than it has in the previous 4 years. Thank you for taking the time to answer! I guess I'll try this next 😁
Awwww! I'm so happy Melissa!!!! I remember your challenge and I'm so happy it worked!
@@WildFloridian I still can't figure out the tiny leaves lol the parent tree has Huge leaves 🤷♀️
How rude of me! Thank you for pointing me on a path! You have helped me with so much more than just the mulberry. I owe you many many thanks 🙏
one thing you can try is : in the winter time but florida has no winter so hard to say.
Year 1, prune to the base cut it to the base. (should shoot up multiple shoots)
Year 2, prune slightly above 1 foot or so or where you have 3 favored branches.
Year 3 maybe prune possibly around those 3 main branches to open up growths.
That way it grows more naturally like a tree and not seem like a vine.
Another idea is to prune it to 5 feet for ease of harvesting. Just an idea. they say 5 feet spacing between mulberry trees.
Also the cuttings can propagate to future trees as well. So get some root stock and clone away.
I am going to convert 60 acres of dry land into a mulberry forrest if i can and see how well my goats do to not kill the younger trees.
So I have two dwarf mulberrys in pots and I tried this, kinda. I just stripped all the leaves off one and maybe within a week or two I saw new growth then a ton of immature berries.
Very cool!!!! It is awesome to hear that works in a pot too!
This is awesome, and being able to see the full experiment from start to finish in a single video is spectacular! Thanks for putting this together and sharing this knowledge!
Just came across this video. Great thanks. Going to do the same on. My mulberries. Just a note. I bought 2 jujube trees, some animal,ate all the leaves and half of each branch,on both,in my potted Orchid. SAME result, i thought they would die .BUT weeks later, all new leaves and regrown branches. And it’s 200 percent bigger. IT REALLY. WoRKS. Thanks.
I had a jasmine plant in a pot and thought it was a weed then my mum told me that it is a mulberry sapling :)
Now im thinking of planting it in a bigger pot!
Do it! 👍
Tried this last summer. Worked phenomenally.
How to propagate mulberry: cut branch any size doesn't matter shove in ground.I have made 100s of mulberry cuttings. None have failed. Even a 4 foot branch I just shoved in the ground and left it in the dead of summer.
I bet they will grow if you just leave a branch on the ground. Mulberrys r just the best.
I should try that and see if it roots at the bud points! Thanks James! 😄
Another Thank You from Germany for showing the procedure, progress and result in one video! :)
so nice that you show the results
Nice information to know going into propagating my first Mulberry tree. Thank you!
Thanks for such a helpful video! I really appreciate how you show the entire process and end result. Mulberries are so good!
Thanks so much for being brave doing this experiment. Loved this information 😊
Greetings from Arizona growing zone 9B! we will be planting an ever bearing mulberry tree this fall! thank you for this video. we will definitely be using your tips and tricks! Cheers 🍷
I’m also in central Florida I’m trying it tomorrow thank you 😎
Thank my sister for sharing
When the fruits are done, I trimmed my tall tree and replanted the cuts.
Thank you for this information because I wanted more fruits.
Thanks so much from Trinidad and Tobago .
I also tried that technics and it really works, after a week new buds growing together with fruits coming out.
It's good to try new things in the garden every year. Some things work out and others might give you more ideas.
Yes, I did the technique he was showing. I pruned them around November and December. And now in February
they are crazy with flowers!
I can't wait to try it on mine
Yes!!! Try it! Hopefully that kicks your red mulberry into gear!
This is great! I can't wait to try this out.
Hope you enjoy it Amy! 😄
Seeing is believing and that's really how it's done to induce mulberries to yield lots of fruits. Empty plastic gallons is where I grow my mulberries, and doing that technique over and over is the way to go for it to bear fruits all year round. 👍
Can you explain further how you grow your please?
Thank you so much! I have a young tree, less than a year old....hasn't fruited yet...10' tall in FL Zone 9. I'm going to try it!
2.5 years and only a few mulberries. Definitely trying this!
Thank you for making this video! I appreciate that you showed the updates and progression every few days!
Of course!! 🥰
I also live in FL and have started doing the same with my mulberries. This was such a great video thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😄
Cool! Simulates winter? More like simulates a herd of foraging animals! Animals love white mulberry leaves, high protein content. Mulberries plus grazing animals is an easy win
Super cool to see this.
Thank you.
Wow, this one of my fav videos! Thanks for doing this
Awww thanks Cool Guy! 🥰😄🥰
Will try this. We have quite a lot of young mulberry trees. Our mulberries are much much bigger than yours. They are delicious and one berry is a reasonable mouth full. Our best mulberry about 18 months old we got about 400-500 berries at a guess. So 4x that would be amazing.
I found this great video trying to identify a tree by the one leaf remaining on it growing next to my house wondering if I should chop it, dig it and bonsai in the spring. I hadn't even seen a mulberry before moving to ohio 20 years ago. My neighbors had a giant old tree in the back yard and a small very old weeping mulberry in the front yard. I finally took cuttings and glad I did as they sadly chopped the giant for garden space. I feel like I saved that old tree, now it's a cute little tiny clump style pre bonsai. I hope I can keep it alive thru the winter. I might have to obtain some cuttings in the spring to grow food and use this awesome technique!
Interesting technique, I will try this.
I’m so glad I got to talk to you last weekend at plantapalooza, all of your advice is always super helpful! So thank you so much for taking time to answer all of my questions 🤦🏼♀️ I have decided to go with blueberries, and papayas for now, as well as starting some pineapple tops just for fun, and maybe add something else later, we’ll see. But I also wanted to give an update on my mulberry since I did this and was telling you nothing had happened. Well I’m looking today, I’ve got at least 10 bright green buds coming up and it looks like lots more on the way! 👏🏻 So I’m so glad I watched this video! I’m learning so much! Thank you again for all of your help
seeing you be upset about the noodles but then immediately going to improve them is amazing and inspiring to me! i would've given up but you didn't and i really respect that! I love your videos. And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this video 👍
WOW I've got to try this
Awesome! Thank you!
You're welcome Sandra!
Very informative video! Thanks!
This is awesome.
We live in SWFL and have our own Food Forest. Great informative video for a must have in your garden
Thank you that was awesome
i love mulberries
thanks for informative idea.proud pilipino as best example to ur vlog.
Thank you for sharing I love mulberry's
You are so welcome! 🥰
Thanks for sharing! I figured this out by accident a couple weeks ago when I trimmed the top of my new Everbearing Mulberry. I didn't remove any leaves, but I did cut every single new sprout. in effect, it made it sprout out of every bud still on the branches and would produce more berries each time. Now, I have been waiting for each new branch to bud out a couple inches, then I cut those every couple weeks.It just keeps making more berries! It seems that every time you cut a branch, it forces it to fruit!
I love happy accidents!!! 🥰😄 Thanks for sharing how it does a similar thing without stripping the leaves.
Yes, I have learned from other videos that tip prune after the initial round of fruit production forces new growth and more fruit. Good to see it confirmed in your comment!
very good information, thanks for sharing!
This is is fantastic information as I am just getting started on my food forest I have much to learn and Jacqueline you are a wealth of information, thank you so much ❤
You are so welcome! And that is so exciting Marci! I wish you the best for your new Food Forest! 🥰
Great video.
Great information, it worked on my white mulberry tree.
Yay!!!
Very interesting! Thank you for making this video
Glad you enjoyed it!
I feed my Everbearing raw new dog poop from 2 German Shepherds applied between harvest end and hard freeze winter. By harvest time, the poop is composted.
We had a mild freeze for a week and my mulberry lost all leaves and looked pretty sad, but after that it started growing like crazy and has never looked healthier. So confirmed that what doesn't kill mulberry makes mulberry stronger.
I’m so glad I watched this, what an amazing method. I am in Pinellas also and have a dwarf everbearing mulberry that I purchased from Elise at urban harvest not quite a year ago. It’s over 4’ tall now, but no fruit and it looks like the leaves are turning brown now. I’m going to try this method this weekend and see what happens. 🤞🏻Thanks
Thanks for the tip. We have several Giant Mulberry trees and they produce a lot of berries
OoOoOo Giant Mulberries! I hope it works for you too!
Thank you for sharing. I’m growing my first mulberry this year. They’re my favourite berries and the nostalgia from growing up in South Africa. I’ve taken some cutting and hope they take so I can try this method. I won’t try it on my baby yet as I’m terrified of killing it
Pruning is the key for mulberry s
...thanks for the video...yes that is how we do it here in the Philippines,to force mulberry to fruit...but of course you can choice if you want your mulberry to fruit in its natural way...like what you did let your old mulberry fruit by its own...and select other tree for force fruiting by cutting branches and pruning leaves....thanks for sharing your trial...
Grow Mulberry trees in full sunlight. Kill the completion/ie the lawn 10 feet around the tree. Plant more trees. Plant one Mulberry tree 10 feet from septic tank and leach drain, that can be your neighbours leach drain and septic tank. Once roots start deep organic feeding, you will have more Mulberries than you can eat after 5-7 years. Give your Mulberry tree a hard prune, if it's not growing. Irrigate in the summertime
I did it and it is working! I have a Pakistan Mulberry!
Hooray!!!
My Pakistan mulberry planted last year did not fruit this year will this accelerate it to fruit.
FL 9b here, Great info. I was gifted a small plant I got many 3 berries. Its In a pot. I cut it back not knowing and was so surprised how quickly it recovered. Will check out the propagation video.
Happy Accident! 😄 That is awesome you can grow it in a pot!
Thanks for showing us the whole process. Forcing the plant to put energy into the fruit and not growth.
Great video!
Glad it was helpful!
watched a few videos just stumbled upon your blanketflower video.. you got yourself a new subscriber
Yay! Happy dance 💃 😄
I have been doing this for years and I've experimented with that said best results I've had was simply removing all the leaves
Can you do
This like beginning of June ?
I mean end of June *
I also just did this method with some pepper plants it does work guys
Well i just learned something new! Ive got a few plants, so I'll definitely try this technique. Thx 😊
Yay!
Thank you! I need to check for any updates. I hope you found backyard orchard culture for any other fruit trees so you can keep them smaller and have more trees!!
we also use the same technique on sugar apples. A month or so pater you can see the apples have cracks coz they are are growing too fast... other trees we didn't prune or take of thw leaves have smaller fruits
Amazing video!
You are so kind
This channel is so good. I recommend you to grow figs, is from the same family and you could do exactly the same, prune them in october, that is when loses its leaves here in Europe.
Thank you 🥰 And thanks for the tip!
Omg! I have 2 mulberries I’m going to try this tomorrow!
What a great time lapse tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing this great technique and showing us the weekly progress. So amazed at how fast it pushed the new leaf buds out and even more impressed by the abundant fruit flush. I just planted two mulberries and have two more to put in the ground. They are all going to get this treatment tomorrow! (If it weren't already dark out, I'd be doing it right now! Lol) Thanks again for sharing this trick to get a better yield and better fruit to boot. 😋
Yay! Yeah I was shocked at the difference between day 7 and 14. In the week and a half since I filmed the video... the tree has put on another foot and a half 😱. I'm about to the prune all over again!
@@WildFloridian that's incredible! I can hardly wait for mine to get their roots settled in and grow!
I prune mine 4 times out the year because it keeps growing over 13 ft and it always put out new berries.
You talking about your mulberry trees is making me check out if our local nursery has some!
Oh yay! You should totally get one! They are so yummy! And wildlife will also enjoy it!
Bear in mind that the birds will poop purple crap all over everything near the tree. That would be on your car and house, so plan to plant as far away from the house and car and patio and deck and pergolas.
As long as you prune ,it will bear fruit again and again.😋
I’m propagating white mulberry, they’re very yummy
Well I guess I did this without knowing lol last year in fall I pruned my tree and removed all the sad leaves, this year mu tree has over Idk 200 or 300 fruits for sure!!! So this does work, and also if you cut the tip of the new growth it makes the tree focus on the fruits and not on growing.
great info...great 45 day speed up...i got confidence in it now also...LOL
It work with all year round fruit. Prunting make them put all energy in building stronger root then they bloom more flowers and fruit.
Can confirm. I have a massive mulberry tree that we had to prune back due to being overgrown with passiflora.
It's been 3 weeks and I have hundreds of berries coming in
I do this with my Bryce’s World’s Best, which is a Thai everbearing type, and get tons of berries. Saw it in a video from the Philippines too! I didn’t strip every leaf. Will try that next time.
Oh very cool! I'm curious to hear how much of a difference the stripping makes versus just a hard prune.
perfect timing! I just started my first mulberry cuttings in Brandon. I was already planning to keep them small through summer pruning but I didn’t realize it would also mean this much extra fruit. (also I highly recommend the book Grow A Little Fruit Free by Anne Ralph, super interesting!)
Wow. Me too
I gonna try this and I will tag you in the video ❤
Amazing! I have a mulberry bush that I got after watching your videos. I had it in a pot and was doing ok. I planted in a north esas sunny location and is doing better. I amended the soil w compost, bone meal, blood meal and at the beginning it’s leaves eww small but it fruited a lot. It’s been several months and I noticed the leaves are getting bigger. The fruit is tart sometimes and small. I don’t know about this fruit or if this is normal. I realize that I “over loved” the plant w the amendment since it is a Fl native but this was my experience. Loved this video. I am trying to grow stuff. I should try bananas. I live in South Fl, Miami suburb and my dirt is mayaca (hope I am writing it right). I have learned a lot from your videos. I even got a coral color tank that says “WILD FLORIDIAN” since I want to be “wild” 😆
I love this progression video. I remember years ago that Pete Kenaris used to say he pruned his mulberries back 3x/yr. I don't think he stripped them though. Great technique to get more berries!
Thank you! 🥰😄 Yes I saw the same from David and Pete... but I had seen them give a more detailed tutorial. When Mark sent me Mr. Wilson's video... it was so helpful! I'm happy I was to provide even more detail and take people along with Mr. Wilson's technique.
@@WildFloridian It reminded me that I need to get out and prune mine again! Thanks.
I wonder if this will work for acerola or Bahamian cherry tree. I bought two and eaten two cherries. They are not doing well.
@@mariangie1544 How old? Mine didn't produce good until 3 yo. Now, at 4 yo, it is going crazy. Very light pruning.
Is less than a year old but I bought it in Redlands farmer that specializes in fruit trees cuttings from mature trees that produces fruit faster. Spanish name of procedure is “acodo” I don’t know if I am saying it right.
I use my mulberry leaves to raise silkworms
I did something similar to my apple trees and had gotten one the first time they gave apples after I did this they produced about 40 apples or more it's crazy.
Love from Pakistan ❤
We do this with our Thai mulberry and Bryce's World's Best mulberry!
I was given a mulberry plant and is now growing tall in a container. Wondering when it’s going to produce flower. Got to try your method for pruning. Great video. Thanks.
Mulberries dont exactly "flower" they just startmaking little green spikey balls that turn into berries.
Make tea with your mulberry leaves it lowers blood sugar .. quickly ❤
thanks a lot for sharing. can you tellus how to solve the brown n yellow leaves problem?
