Man I recently got into gardening and planting trees after battling cancer ( cancer free now ) and medically retiring and I got to say you have some of the most valuable information I’ve seen! I’m so glad I stumbled across your Channel. I’ll definitely following. God Bless.
Thanks so much for the feedback and encouragement.
Hi from Ireland. If you take a piece of Elder stem and throw it high into the air, by the time it hits the ground it will have grown several roots. True story.
It's a real confidence builder!
How refreshing to see straightforward knowledgeable advice with no music! Thanks a lot - have subscribed.
@@LegendLength Being hearing impaired, if there is music, I switch off.
Agreed!
Music is often added when content is lacking. No such problem here - this is full of valuable information that needs no gimmicks. I’ve
subscribed as well…
I’ve only recently begun researching rose-growing as a hobby. Mildly surprised at the amount of diametrically opposed viewpoints from seemingly successful rose growers.
Weird? Right?
Ditto!
To start.... I had no experience growing a single thing. Decided I had a lot of time on my hands and would try my hand at gardening. Watching your videos gave me success. Ive rooted a number of plants this year. My garden has given me such pleasure and peace in my life. Decided to even bring some indoors under led lights. No idea my luck with this just yet hahaha. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge!!! Please keep up your excellent work. I appreciate you.
Thanks so much Sylvia - I'm so glad to hear about your endeavors.
I love your straightforward common sense... absolutely invaluable!!!
Thanks so much for the encouragement Theta Country!

You are a wealth of information! Just think that your years of experience , given away in minutes to help the likes of me, with propagation. Many thanks and God bless you.
I watched like 40 of your wonderful videos before taking some rose cuttings to try and preserve roses after my in laws sold their house with >50 rose bushes, and thanks to all of your advice I really perfected my setup and all of my cuttings have new growth (some varieties rather explosive, even) within 2 weeks! Thank you so much for sharing your extensive knowledge! I also only lost 3 of ~40 citrus cuttings and half of them have new growth after 3 weeks!
Good to hear you're getting into propagation! Best of luck with your cuttings.
Thanks for the definition of hard/semi/soft wood ✌🏻
Day 3 of loving your channel, Jason! Ppl likely have gotten the idea of slanting the top of a cutting from Arborists. When topping the height of a tree trunk, cutting it on a slant prevents the moisture from sitting/pooling on the cap, therefore preventing the top of the trunk wood from rotting.
THANK YOU FOR THE TRUTH ABOUT ROOTING HORMONE..... PATIENTS FROM YOU GUYS SEEMS TO BE THE KEY....
I learn something useful everytime I watch one of your videos. Thank you.
Subscribed immediately after learning from your knowledge. And without irritating music. Great
Thank you Jason! Excellent info presented so clearly as usual! My plants and I are grateful for your channel :)
One of the Best thorough videos yet.
Thanks!
I am learning all plants to cutting rooting. Some success. Lots of them failed. I keep trying roots and learned lots. Thanks for sharing your experience and learning something new!
Thanks - I'm glad you're keeping going. I find there's lots to learn even though I've been doing it for a long time.
Sir you have absolutely saved my life. For any question I have you have a video on it. Thank you so much!
I am trying cuttings of everything i see the last 12 months . Roses , hebe , bushes , etc etc . It's fun to see what works
Kind of addictive, isn't it? Even when it doesn't work the first time, it just makes me think about how to change my method and try again.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm
Very true . It's a fantastic hobby .
Fantastic videos, Jason! I found your channel just recently, but I am absolutely excited about how and how much of your experience you share. 👏🏼 Thanks a lot and keep on sharing 👍🏼
Thanks for the encouragement
Hi Jason.
I've enjoyed many of your videos over the last 10 months or so. And I've learnt a lot from 'em. Thank you for being the kind of speaker (and tutor) that you are: knowledgeable, helpful, serious, eloquent and generous. I never thought to myself 'oh, get over yourself already', and I never had to rewind a video because you were going too fast or being in any way unclear. In other words, I appreciate you and your videos a lot. A tremendous lot. Thanks pal! I wish you all the best on your business and in your life.
Kindest regards from The Netherlands.
Thanks so much Remco. I'm very happy for the feedback!
Very keen to watch your videos. Very well presented and explained. I'm new to gardening. Doing experiments. Learning every day. It's my routine job to watch your videos. I find your videos very helpful
Thanks so much - glad to be learning along side you!
Thanks a lot for sharing, it’s very encouraging to me as beginners to continue trying.
That's great. I wish I had pictures of my first setup to share - it might encourage you to know how amateur my first attempts were.
What I reverently learned is with the hard wood cuttings if you think they didn't take leave them they can take up to a year..
I was able to propagate my first rose due to you! Thank you!! 👍🙂🌹
So happy to hear it
This was incredibly informative and enlightening, I sincerely appreciate it!
My pleasure Heather
Thanks for the tips, very impresive for you experience in cuttings, maybe your next vidio will be about the procedures of cutting inside the greenhouse.
Funny!... the mnemonic I learned for telling up from down on cuttings using slanted and straight cuts was to slant the bottom (the part closest to the root) and cut the top straight - the idea being that the slant indicated something pointy that would be poked into the rooting mix. I am sure it makes no difference, so long as it is consistent and one remembers the protocol.
Brilliant video,wish l had known all this a long time ago, but will use your knowledge now. For some reason we do not get this sort of info here in the UK.
Fabulous information I can use to expand my garden for free.
I love are cuttings that used growth hormone safe for human consumption (eg :rosemary). wonderful lessons.
Yes. I did a video on rooting hormone safety as well: ruclips.net/video/rFFYKanfudw/видео.html
I've tried plenty of ways to root cuttings and I called this nursery that Martha Stewart went to check their roses. And the lady who started the business there told me she got her method from her grandmother putting cuttings in her yard and covering them with mason jars. This is how I finally got the method that works and watching your method of spraying them with a misting of water gave me another idea that also works.
I've rooted with covering with a glass dome and I've actually just trimmed the bottom and dipped in rooting powder and laid them on a table so the powder attaches more firmly before putting a hole in the potting mix with a stick or thick straw. I trim off the flower but leave most of the leafs and I dont cut the rose cuttings down to size at all.
I know everyone says to keep your knife or whatever you use to trim your cuttings steril but I never have. And since using these methods no mold or issues.
Thanks for sharing your success Fia!
This is really helpful. thanks for uploading!
though I'm not a rose person because of those thorns, this video was very interesting and explanation was easy to understand 👏🌹
Thanks!
Excellent. I have subscribed already at the first video I watched. Thank you so much.
Super information, very beautifully explained. Thanks 👍👍👍
Love learning from you!! Thank you for everything. i have nothing but respect for your knowledge🌱💚🌱
Your explanation is so easy to understand. Thank you. I really love rose, so i am learning to plant rose by cutting (my dream is having a rose garden :)). I tried cutting two weeks ago but all the cutting became black and died. I will try your method this week :)
Keep it humid by misting several times a day and under some plastic.
Love your outstanding videos, and simplistic. straightforward descriptions and "how to". Thanks.
Thanks for the knowledge Jason. Roses continue to be my biggest challenge by far. I have propogate figs and couoke of other plants successfully but not roses yet. I became hobby Gardner just before winter. With rose I find myself too afraid that cutting may dry out in cup so I keep spraying with water over the cuttings (just a couple of sprays) almost daily and all stems have rotted so far even though soil doesn't look terribly wet. I have no clue how you get them to root
Managing humidity and air circulation was my first big lesson in propagating roses. I started out indoors, and did the cuttings under a high clear plastic dome. Low success because of the poor air circulation. A couple of sprays a day certainly doesn't sound excessive - unless the air circulation is poor, and the cuttings spend too long with standing water. Also, check how deep you're sticking - the more stem below the soil line, the more chance of rot. I only put nine down by about 3 or 4 cm, enough to keep the cutting upright in the pot. I hope that helps, and best luck. You'll get it.
You can add about 40% vermiculite to your soil for better drainage. A high amount of peat in the soil will go soggy with daily sprays from my experience. Also my cuttings are outdoors under a plastic sheet so there is air circulation when the wind blows. When I have reported my cuttings I’ve been kind of appalled at the soil mixes I’ve grown them in. Too rich a soil is not good (compost) and normal dirt isn’t good (too compact). Check your soil before you discard your failed and also your successful cuttings.
@@elsagrace3893 I always do roses during their winter stage, will plant and cover with a mason jar while its still frosting out, Not all roses can be propagated that way, some are grafted only because of climate,temperatures, and soil quality, so if one of your grafted roses die out keep the wild root part for grafting new roses.
Hi Jason, it's Kieron from the uk, did you see the state of the scissors the guy from j. O. H. N garden was using to do cuttings, I thought to myself, what a peasant, everyone else always state you must use clean knives, scissors, etc, watch it and you will be shocked. Merry Christmas and a happy new year, all the best from kieron.
Thanks Kieron. Wow, another big fake garden channel I hadn't seen yet. How many of these guys could there be?
It is nice to have no music. Thanks for that.
Very useful informations to understand rooting process, starting try rooting on my rose for fun at the same time to experiment on how everything growth...thank you as always 🌻😊
I'm so happy I saw this! I'm just about to trim my fruit trees and was going to toss them! This dude is gonna have too many peaches.
Thank you for great videos you have got into growing my own plants from cuttings as it so satisfying , one question I have is when do I start feeding the cuttings.
Lightly as soon as they have roots.
Fantastic honesty. Thank you sir.
I learned a long time ago, that if you place a cutting in a jar or vase with water and willow cuttings, the willow hormones will act as a rooting hormone. Where I grew up, there was not such thing as rooting hormones, so, serious gardeners always had a willow by their water spout for propagation purposes and it was common practice
I really appreciated this straight forward information.
last year i transplanted crape myrtle trees .so far ive had a great deal of success.its an interesting hobby.much more fun than going to buy one.
You bet Shane - it's a great lot of fun!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm I'm not sure if spreading wood ash around them will help?
Excellent Video, thankyou.
Excellent Jason
Does the size of the pot mayter when propagating Roses
Thanks for these helpful tips! 🥰
Great video, i tried propagating roses but failed,, learned a lot from your videos.
What a great delivery of a tutorial vids 🍃🌿🌱☘✅
slanted cuts are for the tropics on fruit trees to limit the standing water on the end of the sheets and thus limiting the spread of bacterial diseases like phytophthora.
Thanks Rob. I'm given the same reasoning here (in our rainy climate) but I've tried both ways and haven't seen much of a difference.
You are such a well educated creator of plants and new life on this planet. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with the world. Do you sell cuttings? I am interested in gooseberry.
I'm more focused on selling the finished plants, but I might make the odd exception for farm visitors.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm where are you located? I am in Bay Area! I might make the trip.
Near Vancouver BC, but just be forewarned that even if you made the trip, the folks at the border don't allow plants to come back without special permits.
Hi Jason. Have you made a video on which type/class/species of Rose succeed better or more often for propagation?
e.g. does a multi-flora or single bloom Rose, fare better or worse for propagation?
BTW-Your presentations are so thorough, helpful & incredibly interesting, I’ll watch them in lieu of news or movies, they’re much-much, better.
Hi - thanks. I haven't done a video on that topic. I'll put it on the list
Your video is great!!!!....Really frustrating when new to it. I even bought these cloning cubes, a small greengarden. Anyway, I learn a lot with you. There is the node so important, now I just realized temp. moisture. ..what big mistakes I made!! Is there any book, easy, that can help me? Thanks so much!!!

Once you put the rooting hormone on the stem ... then do you put it in soil ? ... what kind of soil ?
Do you have a video of the whole process? I just can't seem to get any of my tree cutting to grow... thank you for help 😊
I have a few videos with the cutting process. Here's one: ruclips.net/video/211r10Jj_OY/видео.html
When is the best time of the year to take Rose cuttings to root more sucsesfully,spring,summer or Autumn ?and also which roses are hard to root and which roses are easy to root ? Thank you for sharing useful information with us.
Hi Macide. Late spring (June here) as the roses go into full bloom - that way I have plenty of semi-hardwood stem to work with, and it's not so hot as to cause difficulty with my timed mist. Which roses are easy to root? It varies a lot - I found landscape roses like Bonica are easy, Sally Holmes is a breeze, Super Dorothy, Fellowship, etc. I've had a bit more trouble with old garden roses (Gallicas in particular) and even some rugosas.
Fraser Valley Rose Farm Thankyou for the information you have provided me, I will keep on watching your vidios.
Thank you for the great information!! You where going to talk about temperature. Is there a better season to take scions? I don’t plan to use any supplemental heat. I live in North California where the summer gets hot. Your videos are excellent 🌷
We're coming into the best season here - probably for you and me both. Good active growth on the mother plants, lots of semi-hardwood stems (my favorite stage for cuttings) and it's still a while before the summer heat makes misting difficult. My best success is usually late spring/early summer and then again in September or so, when it cools a bit.
That’s great news! Thank you 😊 I have a lovely fragrant, climbing yellow rose called ‘Golden Showers ‘ that I’m hoping to duplicate.
Good video. I have a few questions: 1. When is the best to take cutting? For flower plant and fruiting plant. 2. Which part of the plant is best suited for taking the cutting?
There are different methods for plants that propagate well by division, root or leaf cuttings. For stem cuttings, you can choose softwood (fresh growth, this year), semi-hardwood (somewhat ripened growth from the same year) or hardwood (fully hardened off growth from the same year of previous years). I like semi-hardwood best, and I take most of my cuttings in late spring/early summer.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm What time is the best to take the cutting? Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter? How about fruiting plants?
Thanks for the helpful I formative video
Great video! Very information dense.
Can you tell us more about how to root ligustrum from hardwood cuttings, please ?
How wet should your potting soil be to start? I have a problem with root rot with my cuttings.
Not very. Just moist to the touch.
I’ve had that problem with peat mix seed starting soil that I used for cuttings. The water doesn’t mix so I douse it then it’s soggy. I solved that problem by putting the high peatnsoils in a big mixing bowl and moistening and stirring before I fill the pot. I can then see how damp it is. Also now I use my own mix of peat and vermiculite. I mist my cuttings several times a day with a hand sprayer so they need good drainage.
Lots of great info! Thanks!
Thank you. A question about leaving the leafs or not- some videos show completely removing all the leafs, some leave a few on top (with cutting the tips) etc. What is the science behind it? How to choose the right way, or does it depend on the type of plant?
I've been experimenting with it a bit. The theory is that the foliage will continue to photosynthesize and send rooting hormones down to the base of the cutting. In practice, the cutting will often stress out and be tempted to drop foliage shortly after sticking. If you leave on too much foliage, it can also tend to dry out quickly. For that reason, some people strip off all foliage on the premise that "it'll just drop the leaves anyway, and I'll end up having to clean up the mess - so I strip the cuttings clean and save myself the trouble". My experience is that is you leave an appropriate (reduced) amount of foliage in place and manage humidity carefully, it'll be a matter of weeks before I see any significant leaf drop. In the meantime, I truly do think the remaining foliage is helping the chances of rooting.
With me I general start my cutting with leafs in tap water in a sunny spot until I see the first sign of roots. then I slowly add in a bit of dirt then I transplants, leafs help produce food unless the plant is in its winter stage, then once it get roots it will start budding. Cuttings need a lot more moisture than an already rooted plant. I use to have the dried out leaf issue, not as much I water log my cuttings, if the leafs last at least a week it generally makes it. with leafs not enough water all the time is and issue.
Which plants would not be good prospects for propagation. I've had great luck with roses, hydrangeas, crepe myrtles.....if that's too broad, then what others should I try? Thank you for your help!
I've dabble in hardwood fruit trees, and found them tricky. But mainly it's just a matter of method - and I find the basic semi-hardwood cutting technique will do a wide range of fast-growing shrubs and perennials.
Just stumbled on your channel today and completely started binge watching lol (Netflix… step aside). I just realized the cuttings I’m trying to propagate are turning black from the top down. Any insight would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks Melissa. I'd look at your moisture levels - if they're turning black (instead of drying out and turning brown) that could be rot from excess moisture.
How about maple trees? Have you had success propagating them from cuttings? I am enjoying your content. Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us.
Thanks - it's not something I've played with, but always something new to try!
Can you root the perennial type hibiscus this way too?
Could you please tell me if you have any ideas on propagating Clematis. Thanks.
Wonderfully useful, thank you Jason! Yours Jennie
This information is so helpful.
Thanks … is it worth putting that ‘gunk’ on the top of the cutting to seal it like the stuff used in grafting ?
I don't think sealing the cut is worthwhile on semi-hardwood cuttings (my preferred type). I've seen some growers use a wax dip for hardwood grape cuttings, but mine have been fine without it.
IBA (Indole-3-butyric acid) based product concentration at 6:40
Probably not general rule, but all my roses have buds erected up (hm, how to say that differently?) and thorns directed slightly down so I have no problem distinguishing orientation.
Thank you very much for your effort in making all these helpfull videos.
Thank u so much for this vid. Just wanted to know if there is a best time of year to take cuttings?
Hi Nici - I take them in the late spring/early summer because I find semi-hardwood growth to be the easiest, and that's when my shrubs have lots of new growth ripening.
this is some quality content
please Jason advise whether using green moss increase your success rate in plant cutting propagation
I haven't used it myself, but I hear long-fiber moss a fairly good substrate for encouraging roots.
great video. subscribed today.
is there a best time of the year for hardwood cuttings.
want to try it on blue Atlantic cedar and its almost middle of autumn here in Australia.
found a large branch on the roadside and thought i might try my luck.
its sitting in a bucket of water at the moment.
need to purchase root hormone and propagation mix and use a large plastic storage container with a lid to contain the humidity l feel.
cheers
Is it better to put cuttings directly in pots? Or to start them in a glass of water? Or in damp paper towels? If in water, how long before planting them?
Hi David. So far my best results (semi-hardwood) have been directly in pots with a sterile potting mix. I've done hydrangeas in water (changed frequently) and planted after callusing - with the water changing, it was a lot more work than in pots, and I got good results either way. For hardwood cuttings I've been experimenting with a variation of the damp paper method, and the results have been quite good in comparison with in-the-ground hardwood cuttings. I haven't played much with softwood cuttings. But yeah, by far my best method is the semi-hardwood in pots.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you for the reply. I already have some roses in water and next will try comparing that to paper and directly in soil. Your video is very well done.
Hi Jason
Greetings
Quick question for you
I am trying to root roses from cuttings in January,Canada
Should I put my rose stem cuttings outside under protected shed or inside the house?
Thanks in advance
Depends on how deep a cold you expect. If the shed will remain above say -5c it should be okay.
Thank you very much for your helpful video........greetings from Australia........ I live in a temperate to hot part of Oz ...... I find it difficult to keep pots of cuttings moist without overdoing the watering.......can you suggest a soil mix which will help?❤❤❤
Peat or coir with perlite would be my first choice.
Does rooting hormone powder have a shelf life? If a jar is, for instance, a yr old, should it be thrown out or is it still good? Thx.
It's around 2 years before the powder loses some effectiveness. Store in a cool dry place in the meantime.
Jason you missed this but hopefully you've mentioned it more recently- one of biggest advantages of using liquid hormone is ability to dilute it to suit your current need (plant species and time of year etc. )One concentrated liquid IBA product can be diluted tomake 1,000 or 4,000 or 10,000ppm or whatever you wish. With powders you're pretty much stuck with the strength it comes.
Hello Fraser, thank you very much for information you have provided on cutting, unfortunately with higher temperatures and dry weather all the time I find difficult and the success rate are very low, any advice.
How soon do you water recent cuttings?
As i dont have any green house or mistings or those stuffs for me i propogate in a fish box thermocool with cocopeat and cover with the cover thats too thermacool and made a hole alot if holes so lights engought could pass into it. I see miracle ever since. The reason behind this great success i think is thermacool control heats and as i side a box there's a greenhouse effect. They root just in three weeks. I put the box outside on top of a chicken house...or shed what they call it?
Thank you so much! So much valuable information here ❤ Can you pls advise on propagating chocolate vine? I cannot find any video on how to do it... Should I just use the method for soft wood cuttings? Thank you
Hi Andreea - yes, softwood cuttings seem to be the recommendation. Slightly warmer and more humid than my normal semi-hardwood method.
I am very new to this. We had roofers put on a new roof. They accidentally damaged my hydrangea. Through your video I have learned that it is a hard wood cutting. I use growth hormone I stuck it in the pot I watered it I am using the box method just because I don’t have a system like yours in place with a sprayer. How long do I wait to open the box? And how long do I wait for the roots to take hold?
Hardwood cuttings can root quite slowly. Be patient, keep it relatively cool/somewhat shaded.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you! Your videos are invaluable to me. They have taken root. Like you said, I just need patience now so they can really root well. Thanks so much for all your help and your videos. It's amazing how much false information there is out there.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Also. I have a light system in my basement. They get 12 hours of light thru a clear box everyday. Should I move them out of the light? TIA
Great video. What is the benefit of having 4 nodes per cutting? I have ordered a rare varigated variety of monstera with only 2 nodes per cutting. Any tips on how to proceed with it?
Hi Hobbes. Good question. You don't really need more than 2 - the bottom one, with some rooting hormone applied, is first place the plant will root. The top node is usually where the cutting will shoot. The ones in between can *sometimes* root (I've seen it on just a few examples). Also if the top node doesn't shoot, the lower ones serve as a "backup" chance for new growth. The extra length of wood (and here I'm talking most shrubs taken as semi-hardwood cuttings) does seem to provide a greater reserve of stored energy in the wood. Monstera is a softwood type cutting, so if you use rooting hormone at all, use the lowest concentrations (like 0.1% IBA). Give it a spot with indirect light so it's not so quick to dry out.
Thanks for the tips, and clarity around concentration. Let’s give this a shot! 💥
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm I have never seen a video stop to explain why they choose the cutting. The nodes, etc. Best video,questions, and reply I could ask for!!
Any concerns/danger in using a Root hormone that is “stronger” than necessary?
Yes. Typically you would see excess callus formation (sometimes even at the top or sides of the stem, rather than just at the base) and then a long pause before proceeding to root development. A lower concentration will produce a bit of callus and then straight on to rooting.
Have you ever used this method for Coffee plants? Im about to experiment on some Liberica Coffee Plants and could use any extra tips you could have
Nice. It's not something I've propagated, but good luck!
This information must be out there somewhere, and I am wondering if you know. Are you aware of a book, data set, or collection of information indicating the best method to root X plant in X temperature, with X method? Nice to see your video, Thanks.
Hi Shelley. Yes, there are some good references, but it's such a broad topic area you may need to reference more than one source. I put one manual of propagation on my Amazon store (link in video description) and it's pretty comprehensive for woody plants. Otherwise, I can think of no database larger than the internet itself, ad indexed by Google and other search engines
Thanks for that Any info on Apple. I have some ancient heritage apple that have sprouted from plantings that were over 300 years old. they are quite good eating and I'd like to preserve them.
Oh Sulfur and wood ash. You have a vid that addresses this. Do you have info on pre-treating the ash with sulfur? letting the chemistry take place for a while before using it as an amendment. What ratios what time frame and what moisture?
Thanks Raul. No, I just worked out the roughly balanced amount of sulfur to neutralize the ash in the soil. Apples can be done by semi-hardwood cuttings or (more usually) by grafting. The grafting is worth the effort for some varieties because the tree might be hard to manage for size on its own roots.
Thank you for your advice, I was most worried about the use of rooting hormone. I have a question regarding the propagation environment, some people propragate cuttings on soil, and others on water, do you have a preference? Which leads to a better success rate?
In my experience, potting soil is much easier.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you! great, I am trying to propagate rose cuttings (I tried on water a few months ago but all rotted), now I am trying on soil, hope it works better :)
I'm looking to compare rooting hormone and am interested in your opinion as to which species has consistent rooting characteristics and also benefits from hormone treatment.
A have a monstera deliciosa with a really big stem that has no leaf, so this video was really helpful! Well... I guess I can apply all of it also for the monstera right? Always 4 nodes... oh, do you have any tips on how to place it in the soil? Thank you very much!
