I have also tried honey with good results. I have also heard about using saliva or spit, cinnamon, and aspirin. There are directions online for using all of these methods

    I did this sort of thing with my mom's roses - basically, I'd seen some of your previous videos, and then I saw the results of your one "Grape Propagation Results"video, and well, I decided to do a test involving some wild blackberries and raspberries, which did fairly well, until I tossed them out, as I don't necessarily want those at the moment - might try growing some of the blackberries I've found (one seems to be a nearly thornless variety, and some are very thorny), but at the same time, I did some rose cuttings, so that my mother wouldn't get too mad at me - out of about 20 possibles, only 9 made it, although I'll know better in the spring, and I hope to have footage of the bushes.
    I also tip-rooted my black raspberries (Jewel and Bristol) and my blackberries (Chester, Apache, and Arapaho) - got some good results, but I'll know more in the spring, especially once I remove my hay mulch a bit, and once they really take off next year or so.

      Well thanks a lot. No, I’ve never been a teacher, but I’ve always valued learning.
      I try to relate what I would want to know, and I usually ask myself “what questions would someone standing there have”.
      That is partly selfish. In the beginning, I was having to answer a lot of questions from people who made comments. I decided it was a whole lot better to try to give all the information in the video instead of having to type out answers. Having said that, I get tons of people telling me I talk way too much :-)

  • @michaelmartocci5149
    @michaelmartocci5149 6 лет назад +1

    I learn to do my own after experimenting with clippings. I don't use any growth hormones, cut them long, cut an sharp angle on one end , buried them deep 7in about, leave one leaf stem 5 or 6 in a pot, flood the pot once a day or if its hot, twice. Make sure holes are semi covered with shredded paper or plastic to keep the water in long but will drain slower, it works great, they all survived. But remember to water a lot until you see new leaf sprouting then use less water until normal or planting some where in the garden, good luck.

    Thks for the detailing the Blackberry propagation process, your videos are addictive. I had success in this part of the world with the cuttings following the steps you shared and now the new leaves are emerging from the nodes . I have used a basic Soilless potting mix so when should I start fertilising the pot and what should be used for same . Also would appreciate if you can share the frequency of fertilizer application as that would help establish the individual plants . Another challenge would be to keep these alive during + 100 F summers here .

    • @BIGALTX
      @BIGALTX  6 лет назад +1

      I very seldom fertilize blackberries, so I can't really tell you about any 'plan of action' in that respect.
      Maybe once a year I spread some 13-13-13... but most years I don't.
      But... I HEAVILY mulched them initially and it takes several years to compost.
      So they are getting their fertilizer from that.

    • @ashishtandon6186
      @ashishtandon6186 6 лет назад

      TexasPrepper2 Thks for the quick revert . My query was for fertilizing during the period all bare unrooted canes are potted together in the pot and then individually in pot before transplanting in the ground .

    • @BIGALTX
      @BIGALTX  6 лет назад +2

      No fertilizer when they are propagating.
      You want ROOT growth... not necessarily LEAF growth

    • @ashishtandon6186
      @ashishtandon6186 6 лет назад

      TexasPrepper2 Thks for your advise , I am exactly following your instructions and am able to start the canes with some good leaf growth but soon all the cuttings start wilting one by one . I am using sterilized potting mix , clonex , manual misting and plants are indoors under very low T5 lights ( Temp in 80’s here and without any fertilizer as suggested by you . Also I am using a dilute fungicide spray on weekly basis but cant understand why so healthy cuttings suddenly start dying . Can you share some advise that could help me save these ?

    10* Most blackberries and raspberries (wild and domestic) will grow without tending. Can air growth, soil growth, ... or the new cut and rootone hormone dip and plant. 2-3 nodes and you'll have a new start in no time.

    @greybeard804 6 лет назад

    Search "cloning bucket" of some such and give it a try. Of course, modify the ideas to suit. But it does work well. 80% + success rate on cuttings. I prefer a strong aquarium air pump for aeration. Very clean and untangling roots is easy. Tomatoes, grapes, peppers... You could fit what you had in that bucket into a 5 gallon cloner.

  • @montraydavis
    @montraydavis 7 лет назад +7

    Great videos! :)
    I have a question that I feel is never addressed in Blackberry propagation videos.
    Does it matter than you clone a fruiting cane? Does the cane have to be a specific age in order to be able to be cloned? Does it matter from where on the plant you take the cutting?
    I ask this because if the cane dies after fruiting, would a cutting die if it were a biennial cane ?
    Thanks for your help and time!

    • @BIGALTX
      @BIGALTX  7 лет назад +6

      It has to be a growing cane (which would be a first year cane).
      One that has fruited will quickly die.

    Question about your cuttings from someone that doesn't have any knowledge in this area, what is the difference between root cuttings and stem cuttings

    • @BIGALTX
      @BIGALTX  5 лет назад

      (I think) Root cuttings come from below the ground.
      They are actual pieces of root tissue.
      Blackberries propagate well from "root cuttings".
      Not sure about other plants.

  • @tinamariepayne7291
    @tinamariepayne7291 2 года назад

    • @BIGALTX
      @BIGALTX  2 года назад

      I've done them indoors, outdoors, covered, not covered, misted, not misted, etc.
      The best success was under a misting system that misted about every 5 minutes.
      BUT... summer has never been a good time for me to propagate (in hot TX summers)

Just left the clippings lying on the ground because I had no idea you could do this with em. My question is,Is it worth my time to pick the clippings up now if i soak them for a day in water? And,can this be done with the BlueBerries also?

    • @BIGALTX
      @BIGALTX  7 лет назад +1

      I think they are still viable... at least most should be.
      Make sure you do a lot more than you think you need, as you'll have a lot of "duds".
      If you soak them, I would only do it for a few minutes.
      BUT... make sure you know which way is UP and which way is DOWN.
      That's the only problem you may have... trying to determine which end to put in the pot mix.

      Ok thanks. I know last year I took a sucker off a Tomato plant and soaked it in water until it formed roots and then I transplanted it in soil. Turned out to be a really nice plant. And yea, there wasn't any doubt as to which way was up on my clippings. 👍

      Thank you for the quick reply. I watched your other video. I am almost positive it is orange rust. At the very beginning before the leaves start to die it looks like someone went around with a bright orange spray paint bottle and sprayed the underside of my plant. It seems to be affecting only a small area of my one plant. I am debating cutting it off and destroying it and spraying with something. I have some Safers Defender Garden Fungicide. I am in Canada so I am not sure if that product is available in the US. Would you suggest I try liquid copper? Thank you!!!

      It could be fungus, lack of water, too much fertilizer, insect damage... too many issues to try to diagnose.

      I have no idea what a prime ark freedom is compared to a prime traveler. Please explain. I'm assuming it has to do with how the berries grow with a thick stalk going upward and then there are the offshoots from that? I now have thornless blackberries growing as well as my new boysenberry plants from Oregon growing and I'm in Wenatchee, Washington in a high desert environment. I should try and root these in the fall and keep them till next spring?
