    I've been doing something similar for my old garden roses, but instead of using rooting hormone, I gentle scratch off some of the botton half of the skin of the cutting with a knife or edge of a scissor, the part thats going to be in the soil, to make it easier for the rose to push out roots. I have an 80 percent success rate so far (zone 9a houston tx)

    Yep! Sand is the solution to my hardwood cutting problem! I´ve done cuttings last November, after watching your previous video on this topic and had very good success over winter , about 80 percent rooted. I stored them outside in a sheltered position. In February I relocated the cuttings to the back of the garden. Following a mild winter a horrible wet and cold spring killed all the tiny roots and the only cutting which came through was the rose Synactif. Only because back in November I ran out of dirt while potting this variety and added two hand full of sand to the pot! I Needed you for the explanation ! Thanks for the HELP!

      Hi Bradford. Yes, I've done a few videos on maintaining nursery plants over the winter. Here's one on fall/winter cleanup of potted roses: ruclips.net/video/tohjS_Q_qX0/видео.html Here's another one where I talk about the steps after rooting: ruclips.net/video/SSQDMvjkdb0/видео.html . If the cuttings are lightly rooted, I keep them from low freezing temperatures (semi-dormant) and water only as needed to keep them from drying out. In my greenhouse, that's a check about once per week.

    Considering I put these winter cuttings in the garden bed mid August,
    1) When is the right time to take them out of that bed and put in a pot? (I do not want to plant them out in the garden).
    2)And what is the best/safest method to get them out of the bed and into a pot ?

  • @Chuckles17
    @Chuckles17 3 года назад +14

    Interesting. From what I had seen and read elsewhere, I was planning to overwinter this year's rooted rose and lavender cuttings in my unheated shed over the winter, with the understanding that as long as the roses were hardy for the zone, they should be okay. But I'm in 5b, and we spend most of the winter below freezing, so now I'm a bit apprehensive. I wonder whether maybe I should take a few of each type out of their current pots (gallon pots, with sand, in which they rooted) and bring them inside, to be safe in case I've misjudged. I wonder whether disturbing the roots is more or less risky than the cold...
    I'm also preparing a hardwood cutting experiment. I've built a small, heated propagation box which I'm planning to leave in the unheated shed all winter. Reports seem to be that with the rooting area warm but with most of the stem up in the cold, hardwood cuttings can do really well and progress more quickly than one might expect. I'll be documenting it, to see what works and what doesn't, so perhaps I can pay back for some of what I've learned online by sharing my experience with others :-)

      i have similar issues but in 8b. not entirely sure what the b means. We retired to southern calif high desert. 3 months of 100 degrees.Winter gets cold enough to have a week of snow. Going into mid 30s end of this week for overnights.Day temp now is mid 70s. We had 2 late freezes after Spring warm up this year so none of my seeds grew. And have had two fall warm ups to seem like a mild summer so all the plantsand trees intown grew at the tips and got blooms in middle of leaves falling off! The tallest mountain and the lowest point in USA are near us and Death Valley an hour east. Interestingly English lavender I guess is close enough to a local sage plant and does well here. Nothing phases it. A lady started a lavendar ranch here so I bought a couple plants. Ive not yet managed to get my cuttings to survive and figuring out plants to try but how i found this channel. I thought of making our little trailer a greenhouse of sorts. We have an RV style hookup for it including electricity. The bathtub has a skylight over it. I could add a heater or heating pad and some shelves across the tub. We shall see.

    • @FraserValleyRoseFarm
      @FraserValleyRoseFarm  3 года назад +2

      Thanks. Sounds like an interesting experiment - that kind of bottom heat can have really dramatic results, so I can't wait to see how it turns out. I suspect your gallons would be just fine fully dormant in the shed, but not a bad idea to hedge your bets. Any way you can do so without the repotting step? I only ask because disturbing the roots/repotting at this time of year can be a little iffy.

    I have propagated English Roses for the first time from hard cuttings of September 2021 into Terracotta as well as plastic pots. They
    have developed about 1 to 2 cm nodes growth until the winter came . Our last winter temperatures here were from 4C to -10 C. I honestly didn’t know if they would survive but it was like an experiment.
    I put the pots outside along the side of the house where they’re somehow wind - protected and only very little rain or snow would fall onto the pots. Then I covered the pots with fleece .
    Well to my surprise those 8 pot have survived the 1st critical winter ( maybe 1 or 2 cuttings from each pot didn’t make it ) and you know what? 3 pots have started to bear flowers since August and 2 since September 2022.,
    I’m so excited about the outcome therefore I have done more planting from August 2022 and they look so far ( now mid October) promising .
    By the way , I just used the normal commercial soil and I keep the soil always moist from planting time and stop watering about 2 weeks before the frost comes .

    Hello Jason, I am retired and this is my first time rose propagating. I am located below Montgomery AL, Southern part. Like you, we have mild winters and very few freezing temperatures for prolong periods of time. My rose planting environment is our washroom that has one window and no wall insulation. At this time of the year, the room temperature is around 70 degrees and gets cooler at night.
    After dipping my rose cuttings in rooting hormone powder, I planted them in a moist mixture of moss and topsoil, FOUR CUTTINGS PER CUP. I feed the cuttings once daily using rain water I collected earlier and apply that water using a mist spray water bottle purchased at a local Dollar store.
    *Praise report. I planted several rose cuttings fives weeks ago and most of the cuttings are putting out tiny green leaves.
    *My question, is it time to separate and transition the four root systems from the one cup into four individual cups? And, do you recommend I maintain the same living environment and feeding schedule I started with until Spring?
    Sincerely, A retiree trying new things.

    Since I'm a novice propagator, I've been watching your videos. They are all well done and instructive.
    I've have been taking care of my parents' place since they passed. Since I need to leave their place next year, I would like to take some of the plants from my mom's rose garden when I leave. The plants are too old and big to dig up. So I've been trying to get roses from my mother's garden to root, using soft-wood covered by plastic water bottles, in either pure fir bark, or potting soil with perlite in it. The cuttings have been under the water bottle domes for about eight weeks, and only a few show some roots (but not a lot of roots), and many show calluses but no roots. So, some of the cuttings are alive but are making only a little progress. It is now the end of October, and it is beginning to get much colder especially at night, but not below freezing. I'm in the San Francisco, California, where the temperature is mild, but colder at night (usually around 45 to 50 degrees I believe). I don't think there's going to be much more root growth at this time of year. My questions are: (a) Should I just leave the entire set up as is, and wait until next spring and hope for more growth then (i.e. leave the cuttings that have a few roots or some callusing under the plastic bottles (for humidity) in the fir bark)? (b) Leave the set up as is, but for the ones that have rooted in fir bark, replace the fir bark with potting soil (more nutrients for the roots)? or (c) give up. Any response would be greatly appreciated, since this is probably my last chance to take some of the roses with me.

    • @FraserValleyRoseFarm
      @FraserValleyRoseFarm  Месяц назад +1

      I'd be inclined to leave it more or less as is until spring. You might transition away from humidity domes if any are rooted even minimally, as the trapped humidity may not be necessary at this point if temps are mild.

I picked up some paver sand from home depot. I'm hoping it is course enough and I'm excited to try this method. I guess it'll be obvious in the spring which ones were successful, because they'll grow leaves when all all the other roses do. I've learned so much from and you it's with the help of your videos that I'm so excited to propagate roses, and maybe I'll try some cuttings of my hydrangea too. Thank you for your videos!

      Thanks, but I do have a more recent video on hardwood prop: ruclips.net/video/4NONMYSK2h0/видео.htmlsi=OEJQKX51jxgOkQ19 It's not a matter of one method being objectively better than the other, but doing it in beds outdoors is certainly less work. I know that some who grow in climates with extreme cold winters do it inside a cool garage in pots or cups.

      @@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you for your reply! Yes, I've watched that video too, and I guess it could apply to roses as well. Because I don't have a big yard with a nice soil bed to work with, I actually like the idea of the cups. In my harder clay soil, I feel like it's more difficult to dig up the rooted plants without damaging the roots. I'm hoping the sand will make it easy to separate out any rooted cuttings.

I’ve been afraid to water it - it is the only one of several that have made it this far. The others I lost to rot so I afraid of over watering this one. Do I go ahead and repot it now and then water it with half strength fertilizer or water it now with the half strength and wait to repot it? Thanks so much. I love this, it’s great fun.

    Hello. I've got about 10 figs rooted in July, 2023. I really don't want to put them in the ground this year. I want to wait until next summer because I am in Salt Lake city, Utah zone 7A. My question is:
    1. Can I put them on a deck(outside) with a roof cover on top?
    2. Do they need the sun to survive during the winter season ?
    3. How often do I water them ?
    Thanks.

      1 - You'll know your climate better than I do. Figs come through fine here (zone 8) but might be a little tender for zone 7 in a pot. Shelter from cold wind can help some, but it's not something I can answer with any certainty.
      2 - They'll go fully dormant after a bit of cold, after which they won't need a lot of sun until they break dormancy
      3 - Once they go dormant, check every week or two to see if the soil had dried out too much.

Now I have 2 new cutting in the ground . Maybe I should add extra bigger plastic bottle on top becaise they have new leaves and we have -12. I'm not sure.

I have several cuttings of various plants (rosa rugosa, potentilla fruticosa, and saskatoon berries) and was wondering if you've any experience with them or have any other tips to help me out?
    For some background on what I have done so far, I took cuttings of various lengths ranging from 6 inches upwards to 2 feet, each set of cuttings still had a green cambium layer with a woody core, I removed the lower half of the stems and leaves, used rooting hormone at the bottom, sunk them down to near the base of the pots, and have the cuttings in an assortment of 0.5-1 gallon pots with a mix of peat and natural soil and a small bit of compost and vermicompost on top and watered in. I am planning on bringing them inside overwinter.
    The rosa rugosa are staring to lose their leaves and are inside, the potentilla fruticosa have lost most of their leaves and had a bit of wind damage before I brought them inside, and the saskatoon cuttings have just been hit with a slight frost and the leaves are showing the signs of the frost damage. I pulled a single potentilla out to see if it was rooting and I saw signs of white roots forming but only 1-3 millimeters. The potentilla are on a warm mat but the others are just inside.

    good stuff as per usual Jason. My query relates to cuttings taken later in season and wintering over. Failure # 1 was when i put the cuttings which had new leaf growth into greenhouse shelter - almost immediately over night they had a fungus grow over them and they died a couple of days later. rot. I am guessing the sudden temp / humidity / lack of air flow in small greenhouse cover contributed to fail. Other failures include either drying out or too wet. Q1 Can you break off a leaf node that has died on a struggling cutting and will it sprout again from that leaf node? Q2 Any tips on improving air flow inside without using a fan? cheers

    • @FraserValleyRoseFarm
      @FraserValleyRoseFarm  2 месяца назад +1

      Hi Angus. Yes, if you need to pinch off a growing shoot, there's still a chance that the cutting can succeed - once rooted it may send new shoots from another node (usually not quickly from the same node, as the dormant buds require a fair bit of time to activate). As for improving air flow, if you're not using a fan - I don't know, window? Door? Or at least an open position with some room around the plants.

      Thanks Joe. We're on the pacific coast, just about an hours drive east of Vancouver. For me it depends on how well rooted the cuttings are. In a small (4") pot and just newly rooted, I like to keep them away from deep cold. A quick dip below freezing each night doesn't freak me out - but a weeklong stretch at -10C/14F might see some of the weaker plants fail. At those times, the shelter of a greenhouse is nice because it cuts down on the desiccating wind. An unheted garage that stays above freezing is a just about ideal place to stick them for protection during truly cold weather.

      It's not necessarily that one method is better, but the in-ground method is sure easier to get going because you can basically use existing garden beds.

I know gardeners in very cold climates (like zone 3) who do the sand method in a minimally heated garage - and that's their best option because the ground is frozen outdoors.
