I really appreciate that you share the timing of the various steps you take (i.e. summer, winter), and the state the plant is in at that time (i.e. dormant, budding). Many share ‘what’ to do, but the ‘when’ can be a critical detail for success. Thank you!
Been doing a lot of propagating past couple years , hope to start my own nursery one day , going to try this method . Awsome video as always. Can’t wait to watch your videos once spring is in full effect
Feeding people is easy! Nice video, thank you again folks. Last season you showed us when you laid down the saw dust in your pathways. Maybe you could weave a comment into a future video about your experience of using it. I've not come across that before and it would be interesting to know. Big love from Banbury, UK!
Thank you! It's early April here on the coast of Rhode Island and the black raspberry canes are just about ready to bloom their leaves. I am am probably too late to tip layer them but I am going to try to do it with a few and see what happens! Thanks again!
Thanks! Yeah, its soil that was a front lawn 3 years ago. We piled mountains of woodchips and compost and a few years later it is like a rich black cream!
I love this video! Softwood and hardwood cutting propagation are weak areas in my repertoire. I'm hoping to propage pretty much every plant I bring onto my property to increase biodiversity and perhaps make a few sales. At the beginning of the year, I ordered some black cap raspberries - I already have a gooseberry, so this will come in handy very quickly. Does it not work on other raspberries? I am now living in a new-to-me biome, and am learning a new set of flora.
Awesome! I've done it with forsythia. Berries are more useful of course. I've heard hydrangeas can root like this too but haven't tried it. Will bury some soon so see. And will do gooseberries like you said.
A great way to do this is to put the tip in a pot of soil. It will root the same way but will be easier to transplant without disturbing the bramble bed soil.
Wow! Thanks!!!!!!!!! Super helpful. Good explanation of detail and video shots of important steps along the way! Very clear and easy to follow. Sharing :) Blessings :)
Great video! I assume the central piece you cut just dies? Or does that start growing "backwards" into the air? You also mentioned grapes, do you have any favorite cultivars of seedless fresh eating grapes that you would recommend for a colder area like you, or do you primarily have wine grapes? I really love your channel, it is the first one I watch every day!
Thanks for watching! I have some grapes but nothing that is amazing variety... Somerset Seedless is hardy for us here and incredible flavor, and I like normal old Concord.. Growing 'buffalo' grape recently which is super hardy and very nice as well!
Thank you sir. I have a blackberry (in UK) that has appeared, by itself, and I found it by tripping over it! It had rooted at the tip! Unfortunately however, it does not seem to produce any fruits, unless the birds eat them before I find them! Blessings and peace
What trees are these plants growing under? I see a lot of one type of leaf - is it American red oak?. I am on a site with no mature trees and desperately trying to find out about potential trees to plant to produce biomass so that I can start building soil with leaves etc. I have sandy "dead" soil - made worse by geoengineering. Am in Germany.
Hello sir. I have access to huge currant plants. Black, red and the yellow ones. I tried to dig some up and replant at my new house. Didn't work lol. I was trying to find a video to see if there is a way to transplant them. Not sure if I'm suppose to dig some up or do trimmings off the bush. Just seeing if you can point me in the right direction. Thanks.
I would take cuttings from the bush when they are dormant and plant them out in rich garden soil for a year. Don't try to dig out plants when they are in leaf!
A great propagation technique, and one of plant survival. I'm reminded of a 700 year old English Yew that uses a similar cloning techinque, only on a slightly larger scale: ruclips.net/video/SIjN-qC6qqc/видео.html
Writing a newsletter for the nursery talking about propagation techniques and using this video hyperlinked in the text!
Cheers.
Thats awesome! Thanks!

This is very inspiring. I'm going to tip layer my parthenocissus vines next Spring. Thanks
Hope it works wonderfully.

I will talk in greater detail about the sawdust when the time is right, but the basic story is I love it!
Nice action! thank you and looking forward to it
Thanks for another great video. I love that you can just put your hand in the soil and lift out the roots!
After 3 years of soil building we get rewarded!
Thank you! It's early April here on the coast of Rhode Island and the black raspberry canes are just about ready to bloom their leaves. I am am probably too late to tip layer them but I am going to try to do it with a few and see what happens! Thanks again!
Very reasonable to set the tip layering in motion at this point in the season.
@@edibleacres Thank you! I am at it today!
Another information-packed video. Yall are doing great--thanks.
That is BEAUTIFUL soil !!! Thank you so much for this video, great stuff !!
Thanks! Yeah, its soil that was a front lawn 3 years ago. We piled mountains of woodchips and compost and a few years later it is like a rich black cream!
This works very well with goji berries as well. I did that in the fall.
Amazing, right? That was a nice surprise!

I haven't had success with raspberries, but they are easy to dig up and divide runners from so I haven't tried to hard to also layer them.
Awesome! I've done it with forsythia. Berries are more useful of course. I've heard hydrangeas can root like this too but haven't tried it. Will bury some soon so see. And will do gooseberries like you said.
Gooseberries are crazy effective with this method.
Very nice! As always you inspire us to do more.
I did the same thing on Wednesday with my pink gooseberries. They tip layered and i have 5 daughter plants to plant as a thorny hedge row
Thats great! And now you can propagate those and get a crazy number of plants! (of course, that is only if you wanted tons of free fruit to eat :)
EdibleAcres hopefully there will be more then enough for the birds so ill have some left to harvest!
A great way to do this is to put the tip in a pot of soil. It will root the same way but will be easier to transplant without disturbing the bramble bed soil.
Thats a great 'tip' :)... I did that for a while, works wonders and I should have mentioned that in the video. I'm glad you suggested it.
Wow! Thanks!!!!!!!!! Super helpful. Good explanation of detail and video shots of important steps along the way! Very clear and easy to follow. Sharing :) Blessings :)
Great video! I have heard of this way of doing it, but you made it look so easy and fun. I really want to try this now :) thanks
I made it look easy and fun because its fun and also easy :) Everyone can do this with the right plants, since they truly want to do it already.
Thank you so much for sharing! Is this the same thing strawberry runners do?
I don't know if it would be called the same thing, but it is basically the same idea.

They most likely produce on 2nd year canes, so maybe it is a young planting?
@@edibleacres Well as I said it has planted itself so I am not sure when the original ancestor appeared haha. Anyway thank you for your reply sir.
We do "brick" layering here.
Often, I will do it directly into a bucket, when it's done, you have a potted seedling.
Glad that works for you. For certain plants that works incredibly well.
What brand pruners are those? They sound amazing!
Those would most likely have been Okatsune
Thanks! This method seems working well for vining plants!
Most vining plants will respond well to this approach.

EdibleAcres awesome!! Thank you sir
Sean, it is July. Can I bury the tips now, or should wait until October?
Thank you.
I would encourage you to try it now and then in October see how/if it worked. If it didn't work (yet) leave it over winter...
Wow, cool!
Life finds a way! :-)
Why do we need any nurseries? We can do everything ourselves, it's easy!
As a nursery I agree! Except they are nice to get the initial plants from and then you should be off and running!
This year I start my own nursery.
A great propagation technique, and one of plant survival. I'm reminded of a 700 year old English Yew that uses a similar cloning techinque, only on a slightly larger scale: ruclips.net/video/SIjN-qC6qqc/видео.html
That is a crazy video. What a strange and powerful experience it would be to walk 'inside' that massive being!
