I grew these in my old urban nursery. They are in such high demand someone can make a living only growing this plant. I got started growing mine after I put in a perimeter hedge on my property. To save money I grew my own from cuttings and realized I developed a skill that can make big money.

[@daniellesjoy]

Amazing!

[@paulstewart323]

Definitely looking forward to seeing an update on the cuttings

[@daniellesjoy]

Wonderful, we can 100% do that!

[@paulstewart323]

Have you propagated green giants before? I'm doing it for the first time. 2 months in and no sign of roots.

[@daniellesjoy]

@@paulstewart323 Hey good question, it could be that the roots are still dormant. Are you using bottom heating?

[@paulstewart323]

@@daniellesjoy no. I am keeping them in a warm area though

[@philbrownred6500]

Definitely looking forward to a follow up.

[@daniellesjoy]

Thanks, Phil!

[@johnliberty3647]

I had better results taking cuttings from july 15 to sept 15 in zone 7 NC. I also cut away 66% of the green foliage. If your way works for you keep doing it your way. I just wanted to share that other methods have worked great for me.

[@daniellesjoy]

Great tips thanks for sharing!

[@arthurworkman6877]

Great video

[@daniellesjoy]

Thanks!

[@CoH_88]

Great video thanks for sharing - I did this recently from a few cuttings and used the same rooting powder and have them in potted with soil hope to get some roots soon!

[@daniellesjoy]

Wonderful! best of luck!!

[@a3_a3]

are they green giants or emerald greens? they look like the latter

[@daniellesjoy]

Very observant!

[@ismailgurgel]

Any updates on these cuttings? Did you say that I cant leave them on a window? No sunlight for them?

[@daniellesjoy]

You can give them partial sun but no direct sun all day

[@devbachu7072]

Yes privacy is important too many fast people

[@daniellesjoy]

Yes

[@alismanoogian1579]

Can you provide an update?! Would love to see what this looks like now!

[@daniellesjoy]

Yes we can look to share more on our channel!

[@michaelcarey5638]

would like to see updates. I live in Zone-5 PA. Winter is usually December-ish. After the 1st month and re-potting when is it safe to plant outside? Doesn't sound plausable for ME to try this in January?

[@daniellesjoy]

Usually the fall and spring are the best time to plant

[@naturelover6520]

Does the tray need to have holes at the bottom?

[@daniellesjoy]

You can do either

[@dukefuller1171]

So one should never dip a cut into the container of rooting solution . You have just contaminated the rooting hormone with whatever pathogen the cut may have had. I use a shot glass so the extra contaminated rooting solution can be discarded

[@daniellesjoy]

Good tip

[@ashleyshrader6679]

Do they use these for Christmas trees?

[@daniellesjoy]

Really up to you what type of tree you use for a Christmas tree but the Green Giant is mostly used for privacy landscaping

[@webbztv9439]

Does it matter where you take the clippings from? Did I miss that in the video?

[@daniellesjoy]

I would try taking clippings from the best looking trees that are healthy so that you have their same genes in the cuttings

[@dougmoore224]

Hmmmm....need 15 arborvatae planted....could you plant them for me as you would be much better at it

[@daniellesjoy]

Hahaha

[@rke1987]

Those look an awful lot like emerald green arborvitae 👀

[@daniellesjoy]

Interesting

[@MikeMurphyinc]

Do you have roots?

[@daniellesjoy]

Have you tried this and not had success?

[@MikeMurphyinc]

@@daniellesjoy I tried for the first time about 2 weeks ago, still waiting

[@YourGypsyJoker]

any follow-up?

[@daniellesjoy]

Not yet!

[@SteviReeves]

Your answers are not definitive, and you have provided no update. I enjoyed the video, but why are your answers evasive? Did they propagate or not?

[@daniellesjoy]

I did sorry you feel that way!

[@kiehljoseph]
