- In this video I demonstrate how we now root woody cuttings. This is an easy way to produce hundreds, even thousands of trees and shrubs each year, for free.

I'd love to see you on The Great Simplification with Nate Hagens.
You have these practical solutions like coppice and propagation that forward-thinking people need.
Thanks, I'll have to take a look.
Came here from 'The tree is not dead' . Now im going to root some tree cuttings with my grandson and hopefully plant some trees :) Thank you for inspiration.
Fantastic! The world thanks you.
I wonder how the pieces of suspected Populus sp. I've planted cold (with no care taken, during winter, etc) will go.
Well darn, look at them shoots. I always love volunteers!
Great stuff. I've just been through the beginnings of applying for woodland trust grant for their trees on your farm or more trees schemes and decided against because of their requirements for tree guards and fencing. Putting all that plastic into the environment and then having to get it off the land again and disposing of it properly in a few years doesn't make sense to me. So want to go with more natural methods of growing from seed and cuttings and using blackberry and blackthorn as natural tree nurses. So this vid is great and very encouraging. What species have you been growing from cuttings besides willow (love old man willow, best tree going!) elder and buddleia(???!) ? Always watch your stuff, thank you for all the info and encouragement. We're in Galloway.
All ribes species love growing from cuttings, and nothing seems to enjoy chewing on them. We have hundreds of blackcurrant, redcurrant, whitecurrant and jostaberry but only bought a few. We've also got sea buckthorn to work, and poplar is reputed to work well too. We once got an ash tree to root, so it's worth trying just about anything if you have access to enough material. I'm very keen to test this system with willow chip and trees that are reluctant to root.
Thanks, I'm going to try researching tree and hedge growing in older books as well. @@CairnOfDunnCroftPermaculture
I’m new to this channel. Are you doing any propagation of conifers?🙏
Not at the moment, but I have grown out a batch of giant sequoia in the past.
I am steadily growing a Willow patch for basket weeving. From 17 willow slips from Ebay. My method is to plung lots of cuttings in a bucket of water in the fall. By Spring they have rooted and ready to plant. Just planted a bucket full of them from last fall. As long as you keep the bucket full of water they will grow from a 18" stick to 5' slips. Have always loved trees and planted lots of them on my smallholding now. Just getting Sweet Chestnut fruits this year. Love your channel.
Thanks!
Great video!
Thanks!
Willow is probably the easiest tree to multiply.
It is. But you can grow more than willow with this method.
@@CairnOfDunnCroftPermaculture The method looks good to me.
@@tabascoraremaster1 thanks!
