AMAZING I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT AFTER Living 70 YEARS I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. I WISH MY HEALTH WAS BETTER SO I COULD DO THIS SORT OF THING. GOD IS GOOD...HE GIVES MAN THE ABILITY TO DO THIS BUT SO MANY DON'T EVEN TRY. Congratulations, you have been rewarded for your patience and preserverence. THANK YOU MR.LEAD YOU ARE AMAZING... AND SO IS THE LOVELY MRS.LEAD. BLESSINGS, LOVE AND RESPECT FROM TEXAS.
Youngins? Im 51 LOL. The issue is that people like my parents didnt hand anything like this down. My grandparents knew how to can, make bacon, make ham etc. my parents didnt hand this down.
I have no idea how I came to that video, I have no idea about plants or gardening what so ever, but listening to the joy and excitement and wholesomeness of this man made my day. so thank you ^^
Never heard of you or air layering. You randomly popped up in recommended and your thumbnail seemed interesting enough. But within the first minute I’m hooked. Your enthusiasm is palpable. And now I’ve got a whole new treasure trove of videos filled with information to learn from. Looking forward to the journey. I’m on the precipice of my next life adventure. Just bought a reasonably large chunk of land (40 acres+-) in east Tn, 1/3 pasture the rest woodland, beautifully sloping with a phenomenal view of a mountain range. Most all of it south facing. Planning on planting a small fruit and nut tree orchard. Grew up in rural WVa moved to Georgia at age 10 and now 30+ years later heading back to the country. Been a long time coming and man am I ready. It’s not very often we get to be excited for good things in this crazy, messed up world right now. But finding you just now, well sir finding your channel kinda feels like opening a gift. Looking forward to it. Sub me up and notify me! Cheers.
@Rico Grande ooooooo Germany. Another location on my bucket list. Some of my ancestry comes from Germany. Every few years I get a wild hair and just have to get out and go. 2 years ago it was Scotland, which is also where some of my ancestry originates, 5 weeks by myself. I travel off season and on my own. Completely on my own, I do the research, I book the locations and the vehicles, no help from no one. When I went to Scotland my phone stopped working and I didn’t have gps. It was awesome! Whoops. Sorry about that. Got excited when the thought of traveling popped up. Thank you for noticing my comment. I am seriously going to try this technique of air layering though. There are a bunch of old trees on the family homestead that I would love to take cuttings from. And before I watched this guy’s videos I couldn’t think of a viable way to make that happen. And he seems genuinely excited about what he’s doing and that he gets to share it with people. Slightly off topic …… actually totally off topic, what is the general view of what is happening in the world right now? You know, with the coronavirus and Afghanistan and Biden? How is Germany viewing the USA? If you don’t mind me asking.
@Rico Grande Thank you for taking the time to respond. I think most Americans are at the point of not trusting anything we see on mass media. So if I get the opportunity to ask someone from somewhere else, then I do. The majority of Americans are embarrassed by our current administration. We find it very hard to believe that he won the election. We are humiliated by the state in which our country has been thrust into by asinine decisions made from the moment this clown show set foot in the Oval Office. The majority of us can’t believe that the rioting and take over of major cities by thugs has been allowed to continue. And most of us are hoping that the rest of the world doesn’t pounce, what with being given the perfect chance to mow over such a weak and feeble ‘leader’ (I use that term loosely). I think everyone knew it was past time to leave the Middle East and Trump had set up as smooth a departure as one could hope to. Byedone, purposefully ignored the agreements and taunted the terrorist organization on national television then went on vacation. The fact that he removed the military in one fell swoop while leaving behind a multi billion dollar military complex and all American citizens really pisses off every single one of us. How can such a nincompoop be allowed any power? Before this he threw open the gates at the southern border, amidst a global pandemic, and created a humanitarian crisis. Honestly, we’re all just hoping that he doesn’t completely destroy everything we have and stand for before we can get him out. Sorry for writing a novel. There’s a lot more I could get into but I think I’ve probably already said too much. Again. Thank you for corresponding with me. Best of luck to you and all your gardening/horticultural adventures. Cheers.
Hi Mr. LeadFarmer, until now, I'd never heard of air layering, and I'm impressed! This is a simple, easy way for anyone to propagate their beloved trees! Also, your smile and enthusiasm for this is truly infectious. Consider me a big fan!
Just found you and automatically subscribing. Man, my grandfather died about 5 years ago, and he had an orchard of pecan trees a couple states away from where I am now. Every year his christmas gift to us was his own "McMahon" pecans. My fondest memories of my grandfather were picking pecans with him. My grandmother still owns the property, but has since moved away. Now, my brother and I will be able to carry on his tradition and keep his spirit alive. Thank you so much brother. And can't wait to see more of your videos. God bless you man. You made my whole year!
no clue what i clicked on at first,but the excitement this man brings to planting is something else! this shit is so sick and now ive learned something i would have never with out him. great content
Why can't more people be more like you lol, you really know and have mastered the true spirit of the outdoorsman, the method you tried has been used for eons to reproduce effective producing trees and it feels good knowing at least someone is passing on the knowledge to others. The method can be used for a number of fruiting trees as plants are capable of rooting anywhere along the stem as long as you protect it
Educating me alone was inspiring to try this. Retrieving a clone of my mother’s mother’s mother’s mother’s giant fruit trees on her rural land is going to be an epic 50th Mother’s Day gift. Thank you for everything you just did whether inadvertently or something else, stay safe brother!✌️
On my 7years on RUclips, I never ever commented something here but man u seem like someone with a GREAT personality. Stay the way you are, you seem really wholesome. Thanks to the algorithm who thought it was time for me to know how to plant trees out of branches, even though I don't even have a garden or something but I'm definitely gonna remember that! Greetings from Germany, keep up the good work
@@containsachemical Well tbh i rlly have no Idea why it says that my account is 2 days old but im 20years old and i started watching yt with ~13 and through all this years as a silent viewer i never felt the need to leave a comment until now. 🤷🏻😅 I dont think that sharing my opinion on the videos i watch would rlly care anyone so i held them back all the time. But i ment what i said in the comment i wrote here. Still probably noone cares about what i said but maybe he sees it and maybe it sweetens up his day a little bit and in this case i achieved what i wanted.😅😊
It’s amazing how fun it can be to learn something new when the person teaching you is genuinely excited and interested in the subject. You got yourself a new subscriber!
🌓When I tell you, this right here made me almost cry tears of joy, I love growing things and I love how the roots look on different plants and trees. I think I it’s one of the beautiful type of art of The Most High Yahuah creations. I have learned so much from you and your beautiful wife and I truly appreciate y’all. I will definitely try this once we move to Florida soon. I have a huge collection of plants and I can’t wait to have my own plant nursery when in Florida. Can’t wait to show everyone what I’ve grown. Blessings to you and your family. 🦋
I don't know how I ended up here. But this has got to be one of the most interesting and informative videos that I've watched in a very long time! Thank you so much!
RUclips is promoting black videos is how you got here , my recommended feed is loaded with videos from channels that have pictures of black people in their profile pic that I have zero interest in. I only clicked on this perticular video as the guy looked familiar and I was wondering if I knew him from something else.
if you want a new pecan tree buy or beg a few in the shell soak in water a few hrs the place in a pot on potting soil (dirt) cover pecan 2 inchs deep on it side wet weekly do not let dry out 90 days or so a tiny pink stem will grow 2-3 inches then 2 leaves appear when it get about 6 inhes tall place in 5 gal bucket full top soil--- same depth as in the pot this big bucket allowes the tap root to grow down as get it get 2-3 ft plant in soil full sun same depth this takes time so dont give up it is worth the effort
It wasn't a pecan tree air layer but thanks to your tutoring, I did my first air layer from my pear tree. Thanks for the heads up about the leaves falling. That was a shocker for me.
@@leadfarmer73 For trees that grow larger, and have harder wood or flaky bark when they get older, would you suggest doing this when its younger and the tree has more plyable bark and thinner branches like your tree was at? Most apple trees get harder wood and thick flaky bark here when they get older but resemble your tree when younger
Someone years ago tried to kill my dad's magnolia trees by removing the bark like you did. I held my breath watching you. But he saved his trees using rooting compound and wrapping them. I just never knew we could start new trees that way. Air layering... that's now a must for me! Thanks!
Wow really wierd seeing you in this comment section . I used to own a 07 turbo Fa5 tuned by xenocron years ago. You commented on some of my videos back then on my old channel. Regardless love the videos man.
Thats crazy. I remember being at the mayweather vs ctsv race and meeting you for the first time then being hooked on your vids and seeing you in this comment section for something completely different than what I expected. But i love to see shit like this. Shows how humble you are and how you’re interested in different things. Btw id love to win that red civic lol. Hmu tho cuz i love your content.
I would of never expected to see this channel here lol. Funny, you get caught up thinking people are only into 1 thing because of what you SEE, but completely forget that everyone has many different sides and interests. Pretty cool
I want to be as happy about what I'm doing in my life as this man is... I'm so glad to see people living their actual best life not just living for their best paycheck, thankyou for setting a great example for the rest of us
Love it! Air layered a pear tree last year about the same size as your pecan tree. Checked a few days ago and buds are sprouting leaves! Yeah!!! Enjoy your channel. We hail from south Louisiana
You can feel the elation of leadfarmer crafting the earth one tree at a time! Giving the land not just taking... Keep up the great work lead family.💚💚💚💚
I'm not even into gardening, but this video gave me so much joy just seeing how happy you are with the results! It's awesome to see how excited you are to encourage others to try it out and share all the magical tips! Idk how this video got in my recommendations, but I'm glad it did! Thank you for sharing! 😊
I know I didn't know about air layering, his personality is kept me watching. That and really know what air layering is in the first place. I like how he calls his viewers family.
I usually watch heavy machinery rescue and cars... engines...ww2 era tanks stuff and this came out of nowhere and im so happy that i watched it. he looks such a happy man and i really happy for him as well. Congrats man !!! I will definitely remember what i learned from you one day it may became handy. Thx alot for sharing with us :)
this is absolutely amazing wtf!!! this is the purest, craziest, most natural way to grow trees. and your positivity is truly inspiring tbh, very genuine.
Every once in a while youtube suggests a video on a subject that I have no interest in, but the creator so clearly loves their work and sells themselves so well that I become enthralled. Today is one of those days. Can't wait to see how the new tree is doing in a future video.
I love this! My land has a lot of pecan trees, but most of the younger ones are growing out in the tall weeds. This would let me transplant large branches up closer to the house where I want them!
I’m very Proud to have bought a little land with good soil and 4 adult producing pecan trees , after seeing your content I can’t wait to start using this as a map to success 🚜
I hate to say what everyone else has said but what a nice, informative video, and what a sweet man with infectious energy. Loved how excited he is and loved that he called me family. Instant subscription
I tried this Sept 2024, it is now Oct 2024. This worked on my dad's sand pear tree. I can not believe it work. Now i need help rooting my cousin grape vine. I am waiting for the bag to fill up with roots before i cut and plant it in the ground. I am so excited.
Congrats lead! ❤ I am do excited and impressed with my seed collection. Hard for me to stop. Lol. You and homestead heart are the best! My 12 year old son went in the garden and plucked some rosemary for his steak.. i didn't say nothing but i was laughing on inside.😊 Thanks for all u do
No clue whats happening here, but I love passionate people who have a craft or a focus. Love it! We should celebrate folks that are passionate, too many people floating through life
I'm not a gardener, I don't have a tree, I don't have a garden, I don't even have a balcony, but I watched all of this and enjoyed it all the way through. Great enthusiasm and presenting style about you, keep up the good work.
It is great to see, some creators are still producing honest, valuable content. You appeared to sincerely excited. I hope you continue to succeed and produce. Also, the information you provided seems extremely valuable. 👍
I am getting caught up on videos and this just made my day! I am happy to see that airlayering a pecan tree works it may just take a little bit of time for the roots to get going. You can see in your face how genuinely excited you are.
Ok, first- I'm SO glad to know this can be done. 2- you look pleased as punch! Like you just won the lottery. I love seeing people get excited about growing food!
Congrats 🎉🎉🎉! I just started watching your channel ( yes, I subscribed 😊) now that I have seen the process, I have a lemon tree in my yard to do this on, and my dad has a Japanese Plum that I am going to do this on as well. Thank you!
Thanks for showing the older video clips. I want to be sure I can do everything properly for my air layering attempts! I love seeing all the hands on steps in great detail :D
This is so heavenly! I love it! May God continue to richly bless you with more information and knowledge to share. I am so appreciative. Now I can plant my grandmother's mulberry tree in my own yard! I am over the moon with joy. I will try this!. Thank you Leadfarmer73! ❤️
OMG!!!! Thank you soooo much. I have been working on this for years and failed every time, using other techniques. Awesomely perfect timing that I found you, I have two Elliots that I was going to trim and discard cutting, saving a few. But now I don't have to be stupid anymore. Thank you, thank you.
Idk why this was suggested to me because I could care less about trees, but I’m so happy I watched this video. I’ve never been more interested in trees lol. This man is a true content creator👏🏾
@@leadfarmer73 You're welcome 🙂 I would definitely want to live near you if anything bad was to ever go down in the world. You are an extremely smart man. So glad i came across You're channel , all so helpful and very informative. I appreciate all you do and thank you again for sharing you're knowledge and wisdom with all of us. ❤❤❤
I dont know who you are. I done know what you are about. But I am so happy to see you so excited about something it brought a massive smile to my life to see such a wholesome thing. Congratulations on being the 1st to air layer this and it shall forever be called the Lead Farmer technique.
I loved everything about this video. Your enthusiasm is infectious and I just had a smile on my face the whole time! AND I am going to go outside and propagate my pecan tree this way. Thanks!
What's the best time of year to start air layering? I have a pawpaw I want to do. Just found your channel watching you start the pecan now. Loving it just subscribed
I would love for you to do a status update on this tree. Was the limb producing pecans before it was air-layered? If so, did it produce any pecans in the fall?
I had no clue what I was about to watch when I clicked on this video but it was pretty cool. Most definitely receiving positive vibes from this. Thank you brother. Know that you are appreciated.
i am 87 been around pecan trees all my life i have yet to see air laying work in real life he must know somthing hardly any one else knows------- grafting works great i can take cuttings of other trees and root them --no luck pecan trees what ever he knows is of value
I have never been interested on this subject, but the way you presented this with all your positive energy and your enthusiasm made me watch it through the end. I've never felt so peaceful waching a video. Thanks!
I don't know anything about what is going here but this video is wholesome AF.
Ditto first time on the channel, imma sub for sure.
Came to say the same thing. Watching him so excited made me excited, and I don’t even know for what….
He is showcasing a method that provokes root growth in a branch of a pecan tree called air layering. With this you can propagate(clone) the tree relativily easily

this was randomly recommended to me. never thought about gardening before but i am so gonna do this
You can feel the elation of leadfarmer crafting the earth one tree at a time! Giving the land not just taking... Keep up the great work lead family.💚💚💚💚
I'm not even into gardening, but this video gave me so much joy just seeing how happy you are with the results! It's awesome to see how excited you are to encourage others to try it out and share all the magical tips! Idk how this video got in my recommendations, but I'm glad it did! Thank you for sharing! 😊
I know I didn't know about air layering, his personality is kept me watching. That and really know what air layering is in the first place. I like how he calls his viewers family.
love the positive energy throughout the video, i felt excited when you showed the roots. Thanks for teaching.
I have no idea what's going on but your enthusiasm and excitement is contagious.
Dude this guy's face is so lovable from the first instant. Such honest eyes its insane.
I usually watch heavy machinery rescue and cars... engines...ww2 era tanks stuff and this came out of nowhere and im so happy that i watched it. he looks such a happy man and i really happy for him as well.
Congrats man !!! I will definitely remember what i learned from you one day it may became handy.
Thx alot for sharing with us :)
this is absolutely amazing wtf!!! this is the purest, craziest, most natural way to grow trees. and your positivity is truly inspiring tbh, very genuine.
Great class Lead!! You are a incredible farmer. Congratulations on that beautiful tree.
I you so much❤️🌹❤️
I have no idea whats going on, but your energy and excitement for your craft and content is infectious as well as informational.
Every once in a while youtube suggests a video on a subject that I have no interest in, but the creator so clearly loves their work and sells themselves so well that I become enthralled. Today is one of those days. Can't wait to see how the new tree is doing in a future video.
I love people getting honestly excited for something, great attitude and it comes across on your video perfectly. Fantastic video quality and audio a+
I love this! My land has a lot of pecan trees, but most of the younger ones are growing out in the tall weeds. This would let me transplant large branches up closer to the house where I want them!
This is amazing and so simple to do thank you for sharing this, may God bless your Family and your land 🙏❤
Thank you LMichelle🌹
Brother, I needed your positivity in my life. That southern hospitality is something I'm missing from my close friends.
I’m very Proud to have bought a little land with good soil and 4 adult producing pecan trees , after seeing your content I can’t wait to start using this as a map to success 🚜
Those roots were beautiful! I will be trying this method with a peach tree. I hope I do it right
Peaches work way faster than this. I have several videos on it.
Genius! I’ve been having no luck rooting camellias! Now I may! Thank you!
Simple as pie 😉
I LOVE these garden experiments. I have to get my air layer and grafting game started ASAP 🙌🏾💌
I hate to say what everyone else has said but what a nice, informative video, and what a sweet man with infectious energy. Loved how excited he is and loved that he called me family. Instant subscription
I tried this Sept 2024, it is now Oct 2024. This worked on my dad's sand pear tree. I can not believe it work.
Now i need help rooting my cousin grape vine.
I am waiting for the bag to fill up with roots before i cut and plant it in the ground. I am so excited.
just a farmer enjoying his wholesome life, i love it
Congrats lead! ❤

Holy shit finally a video that actually shows the whole process. Even shows how to effectively plant branch. Thank you so much, incredible.
I am getting caught up on videos and this just made my day! I am happy to see that airlayering a pecan tree works it may just take a little bit of time for the roots to get going. You can see in your face how genuinely excited you are.

Congrats 🎉🎉🎉! I just started watching your channel ( yes, I subscribed 😊) now that I have seen the process, I have a lemon tree in my yard to do this on, and my dad has a Japanese Plum that I am going to do this on as well. Thank you!
You are going to do it and love the results. Nothing like free trees 👏🏽👏🏽😂🤣
I think I have learned more cool things from you than any other youtuber - WOW!!!!
Thank you so much 😂🤣😂
I've never seen this guy or heard this guys voice before, but the happiness in his voice in the intro made me smile. :)
Thanks for showing the older video clips. I want to be sure I can do everything properly for my air layering attempts! I love seeing all the hands on steps in great detail :D
Excellent video of proof that it works sir! I'm gonna have to try this now. Just subscribed. Looking forward to more awesome videos :)
Awesome! That's a lot of branch, essentially a tree now. Hopefully you'll get enough roots before winter.
It has plenty to get it through winter
Have you tried to grow chestnuts? I'm trying them, not enough space for pecan trees.
This is so heavenly! I love it! May God continue to richly bless you with more information and knowledge to share. I am so appreciative. Now I can plant my grandmother's mulberry tree in my own yard! I am over the moon with joy. I will try this!. Thank you Leadfarmer73! ❤️
How beautiful is that😊🙏❤ what a blessing!
Thank you. That sounds wonderful. I say you do it. I’m glad that I could help.🌹
Mulberry trees need at least two in order to fruit if I remember correctly from my childhood.
OMG!!!! Thank you soooo much. I have been working on this for years and failed every time, using other techniques. Awesomely perfect timing that I found you, I have two Elliots that I was going to trim and discard cutting, saving a few. But now I don't have to be stupid anymore. Thank you, thank you.
You're so welcome!
Idk why this was suggested to me because I could care less about trees, but I’m so happy I watched this video. I’ve never been more interested in trees lol. This man is a true content creator👏🏾

What's the best time of year to start air layering? I have a pawpaw I want to do. Just found your channel watching you start the pecan now. Loving it just subscribed
Early spring and early summer
@@leadfarmer73 thank you!
this is great!...I hope you caged it away from the beavers😉
I sure did!🤣😂🤣😂 🦫
Your energy won you a subscription, 100% positive farming vibes
So, is it a certain time of year to do this technique, and does it matter the tree?
I like to start in early spring
I would love for you to do a status update on this tree. Was the limb producing pecans before it was air-layered? If so, did it produce any pecans in the fall?
I did in a live video
He's always so super excited. Love it😄
I be excited because life is incredible. ☺️😂
I had no clue what I was about to watch when I clicked on this video but it was pretty cool. Most definitely receiving positive vibes from this. Thank you brother. Know that you are appreciated.
Your excitement and energy makes me smile. I'm air layering my pecan tree today!
Leadfarmer 73 when are you and your wife the English teacher going to put all this knowledge in a book? I know y’all have been keeping notes.
Ya never know😉
i am 87 been around pecan trees all my life i have yet to see air laying work in real life he must know somthing hardly any one else knows------- grafting works great i can take cuttings of other trees and root them --no luck pecan trees what ever he knows is of value
This guys positive energy deserves 30x more subs alone.
