I just took cuttings from my sweet potato, great experience, same concept

[@twosistersflowerfarm]

That is awesome!

Thank you for sharing ! I noticed 2 more things this year. Contrary to what I hear, my dahlias do have a very long vase life (over 3 weeks) because they make roots easily when put in water (which seems logical for plants of which you can take cuttings) especially the side shoots (like tomato plants). Hence, I suppose that we can easily take numerous cuttings any time during the growing season. I got some in September and the main problem will be to keep them alive until next spring …

Oh wow! That's really interesting.. thanks for sharing your experience :)

[@darlenecullen9806]

How many plants of each variety do you grow?

[@raisingsunshine351]

Good video but would love to hear how you store them also!

Filmed our digging + storing process last season- you can find that video linked in the description box.

I bought 10 tubers. First time ever. I want to buy more now, bad idea? ❤

Go for it!

Hi, wonderful

[@eunicelunsted]

Thank you for sharing!! What did you push into the seed tray before planting the seeds? I assume it makes a hole but I never seen this before.

[@twosistersflowerfarm]

Thanks for tuning in- and good eye! Yes it's a tray dibber I randomly purchased off of Amazon this spring. I didn't expect to love it so much but it truly does help to speed up things when I'm planting a lot of trays! I'll try and link it here if you want to take a closer look: amzn.to/46UD1wl

@@twosistersflowerfarm , thanks!!!

My dahlias had powdery mildew. Any suggestions as to avoid this next year or should I throw these tubers out?

[@twosistersflowerfarm]

Powdery mildew shouldn’t affect the tubers so you should alright to dig them up and store them over the winter 🧡

Aren’t plants just amazing?

[@twosistersflowerfarm]

I agree.. they are ✨🧡
