Thank you for this informative video. I just learned that I have been using my rooting powder incorrectly for the past 3 years. I trust my results will improve.
I've used willow water to good effect on some cuttings that were slow to root ( Daphne odora, Cornus Norman Hadden) the major limiting factor is the seasonality. I've found that mid to late summer is the prime time (in southern England) for success with willow water, which is ok for semi ripe cuttings, but not so great for evergreen hardwood cuttings which I like to do from November to february. Anyhow, thanks for another great learning resource Jason , love what you do
I had good results with rooting hormone by exposing about 1 in of the Cambium , simply remove the first one inch of skin from The Cutting if possible , then with the blade scratch the Cambium , then dip in rooting hormone , for some reason I was more successful in cloning plants by exposing the Cambium .
Excellent video, these same questions often cross my mind while working with IBA. Thanks for putting all the info in a concise video. I believe many growers will benefit from your illumination of this compound. There is another auxin IAA (Indole-3-acetic acid) that works in a similar way, but I don't see much comercial use of it. Ive only found one liquid rooting product that has IAA so far. Not sure why, my guess is it may not be as stable as IBA.
Good info, I agree with the conclusions. My question is in the shelf life of the IBA products. Seeing how easily they degrade on the cuttings (when they looked at using it on fruit trees) I am wondering if it becomes degraded by oxygen, moisture, light, or the bacteria/fungus in the soils the cuttings were stuck into. What are the best ways to store it and extend its life? Would refrigeration be good? How old is too old?
Yes, cool and dry. I store my main container inside a ziploc bag inside the fridge. Most suppliers rate its shelf life as 18 to 24 months if stored cool and dry.
BTW, when I read the research, it looked like most of the break-down was happening through biological processes in the plant or animal. Plants will fairly quickly convert IBA to IAA as needed.
I haven't done anything with humic acid, but studies seem to confirm that it works to promote rooting (either alone or in conjunction with IBA). I'd consider adding it to my process so long as it doesn't take too much time to apply - I do so many cuttings that I'd be concerned about adding another step. I'm a little more hesitant on H2O2 - in low doses it can work as a cleaner, higher doses could be a little corrosive to tissues. The studies I found (only with a quick search) were pretty mixed on results.
Is it a schedule 2 growth regulator? I see domestic growth regulators as a #2 item but I have never seen a product advertised as one, that's why I ask.

Some formulations of rooting hormone can be sprayed on the cuttings later on. I don't think the powder would work well that way, but the soluble solutions can.
Question: If i need to reapply hormone(in this case after watching some videos i realized my hormone was too weak), do i need to do anything to the cutting like scrape off some bark or cut the tip again or can i just rinse it and treat it with a stronger hormone?
Thank you Jason. I figured as much, but having your confirmation makes me more confident since you have so much more experience with propagation than i do. Thanks again, take care brother
I bought this dip'n'grow rooting hormone but have never been successful with it , I followed all the instructions for hard wood. Which rooting hormone is the best?
Hey jason, i see they have different strengths one is 3g/kg the other is 8g/kg can it be too strong for a specific application which would i buy for rose cutting propagation?
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm so the 8g ie 0.08% should be okay for semi hardwood rose cuttings as i think they are somewhat hard to root or should i try the 0.03%‽
Sir curious of why on the garden safe rooting hormone it says 0.01 IBA and 99.99 percent other ingredients??? What are the other ingredients ?? How can we figure out what they are? Could that be toxic because it has a lot of warnings?
Hi Alicia. As mentioned in the video, there's very little concern about the IBA accumulating in the tissues of the plant. The question I have is more about *why* you'd want to use the rooting hormone on these plants. Spinach plants wouldn't be produced from cuttings. Mushrooms are not plants, so IBA wouldn't work. As for okra and peppers, they're generally produced from seed-grown plants. It doesn't really work as a way to improve rooting on plants that already have roots.
When positioning yourself in front of interesting background (acc. to your own recommendations how to make a video) I should suggest you to avoid background directly messing with your body line. Here a pot and plant directly "grows" from your head. That is a classical photography mistake. I know you like plants, but using your head for planting, is it healthy and safe? 😜
Good call Mika. I once made a video with the bottom half of a wall clock behind my head - giving the effect of devil horns! You'd think I'd learn the lesson!

Great topic Jason. Found it very interesting & enlightening. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks so much Heather

Steven what were you doing that was wrong ??
Dianne Naworensky I was dipping the cuttings in water first and using too much hormone

Thanks for sharing your experience with it Robert.
I used tea from Plumbago tips. It worked great.
Hi, thanks for the informative video. What IBA % is required to propagate rose cuttings? 0.4 or 0.8% ? Thanks!
Very well done. Very informative and well-spoken argument, perfectly scientifically laid out. Good job, man. :)
Thanks Jake

I read (somewhere) when I was researching this that IBA tested with the highest success rate as compared to IAA and NAA.
This video definitely answered my questions on rooting gel that I could not find on google. Thanks for this helpful video.
My pleasure Jimmy!

Can we not use other thing instead of rooting harmone powder? Give example what thing we can use?
You could try willow-water.
This is not available here plzz tell me other thing That available in india

Some people use rooting hormone along with humic acid,hydrogen peroxide to promote root growth for rose in intial stages, is it ok?
I haven't done anything with humic acid, but studies seem to confirm that it works to promote rooting (either alone or in conjunction with IBA). I'd consider adding it to my process so long as it doesn't take too much time to apply - I do so many cuttings that I'd be concerned about adding another step.

@@FraserValleyRoseFarm ,Thank you very much , I like your videos very much, you have simplified gardening and cleared many popular misconceptions .

Hi Wayne, the way I read it, yes - and of course, it's still sold retail in BC, so I don't think it's restricted for domestic use.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you!
Thanks for another great video !! ✌🏻❤
My pleasure. Thanks for watching

Is it good to increase mushroom productions.
is it ok to foliar spray this iba ?
Some IBA products are formulated for spray application. The powders are not, but look at something like Hortus.
What if cutting was not dipped and a few days goes by, can hormone water mixture be used to water in soil where cutting already in?
Some formulations of rooting hormone can be sprayed on the cuttings later on. I don't think the powder would work well that way, but the soluble solutions can.
Question: If i need to reapply hormone(in this case after watching some videos i realized my hormone was too weak), do i need to do anything to the cutting like scrape off some bark or cut the tip again or can i just rinse it and treat it with a stronger hormone?
I'd just rinse and apply the new hormone.
Thank you Jason. I figured as much, but having your confirmation makes me more confident since you have so much more experience with propagation than i do. Thanks again, take care brother
I bought this dip'n'grow rooting hormone but have never been successful with it , I followed all the instructions for hard wood. Which rooting hormone is the best?
Just for ease of application I always go back to the powders. It's StimRoot in Canada, but in the US I think it's Hormodin.
Thank you this cleared up a lot!
Hey jason, i see they have different strengths one is 3g/kg the other is 8g/kg can it be too strong for a specific application which would i buy for rose cutting propagation?
Yes. Softwood cuttings take it at a lower concentration, and hardwood (or difficult to root plants) take a much higher rate
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm so the 8g ie 0.08% should be okay for semi hardwood rose cuttings as i think they are somewhat hard to root or should i try the 0.03%‽
Can we use root hormone on budding avocado branch?
Do you mean air layering? Yes, I'd probably use a low concentration - like 0.1%
Sir curious of why on the garden safe rooting hormone it says 0.01 IBA and 99.99 percent other ingredients??? What are the other ingredients ?? How can we figure out what they are? Could that be toxic because it has a lot of warnings?
If it's the powder, the other main ingredient is talc.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm ok thank you
Can hormodin 3 be used on on vegetables Ie spinach, okra, peppers, mushrooms etc for human consumption
