Dont worry bout your set up we come for the knowledge...your obviously a bright, hardworking young man. Thank you for sharing.

[@mariaclark7358]

Love your devotion to your plants nice to see a young man making a living from his flowers 💐 we need more young people getting involved with any form of gardening it’s not just for old folks like me. Love your advice and will definitely give this ago. Keep on growing good luck

[@lisagolden6215]

You’re doing such a great job for your precious family. I love watching your videos and am learning so much from you about flower farming. Keep working hard for your family because the dividends are priceless. ❤

[@Lckesner]

That was so informative and amazing! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video and explain propagation and cloning to someone who is just getting their feet wet in the dahliia growing industry. Much love

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

Thanks so much!

[@megbertch138]

Thank you for not showing us top of the line -too dang expensive- set up. I absolutely love that you kept this doable!🤗😍🤗 much appreciated❤️

[@dayenu5768]

Thank you for this excellent video tutorial! Your instructions are clear, thorough, and simple to execute! I was looking for information on what to do with my dahlias if I waited too long to take cuttings and found your video helpful for a different aspect and perhaps implementable for my current circumstance - thank you!!!

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

WOW! Glad I could help! I hope to do more of these this year !

[@dianebrown5970]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! You are very knowledgeable and easy to understand.

I just did this with Hydrangeas successfully for the first time. But instead of the watering every 4 hours, I put the pots in large clear containers to create a greenhouse and then didn't have to water once for a month because the moisture stayed. But I only did a few plants, this wouldn't be ideal for the amounts you are doing. My next project is Dahlias lol... when I find some Dahlias.

[@dayenu5768]

Wow - did you use the leaf shoots and pot them? Thank you!

[@zaviahopethomas-woundedsou9848]

I did not know you could do this! I have not invested in dahlias yet because I want many but do not want the expense of purchasing all the bulbs. Thanks for the video!

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

The video is up make sure you watch it !

[@joereddragon6724]

I recently bought 20+ varieties from a well known company with good reviews. I got a ton of terrible tubers that were so damaged that I know they wouldn't work. Some had 5 clusters and out of them, I could only save 2 or 3 tiny tubers. I was very disappointed to say the least. 3 varieties came in totally rotted. You can bet I am gonna try this to make it worth the investment.

[@lyndia2]

Great video!

[@sandrahornaman4248]

I truly enjoyed your video. You are so down to earth and real. Thank you. I’m looking for the NEXT STEP.

[@KiwiLawnie]

Mate I just stumbled onto one of your videos yesterday and I can't stop watching!

[@flowerfolkfarm3553]

Awesome info! Really appreciate this! I’m wanting to try this with the bits I pinch out, I just think rather than throwing them away they could be cloned. Thanks so much for putting together the video, it’s definitely helped me!! Blessings Anita 🐝

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

Thank you ! I appreciate it! I hope it helped

[@Moonjean]

I hope you will let us follow your growth in the grow room true the winter months. :)

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

I hope so too!

[@julietaing3380]

Thank you! I just started growing my bought dahlia tubers this season and I only got 12 tubers cause they are $13 each here in Australia. I am keen to try cloning so I can increase my stock. I am a beginner starting my cut flower journey.

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

The prices are crazy! Im glad you are supporting the channel here!

[@rachelhmua]

I just paid $25 per tuber Cafe Lait & Carlos watermelon

[@joannenardoni17]

You are so smart, your teaching is great, your like a little genius

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

I dont think that is entirely true haha. I am just willing to learn alot.

[@abbeypuffin]

i dont grow dahlies yet, but you convinced me with this great video! it seems like a tall flower and i could plant others around it

[@tinaholbrook9719]

Your set up is genius! Great job!

Thank you! I just found out recently that you can clone these. I am always looking for ways to stretch my landscaping budget.

[@Ruth1803ZigZag]

Another good one. Thank you

[@HannaARTzink]

Great, sometime my dahlia breaks or i snap off a branch, this way no wastage - more flower power! Thanks.

[@stoicbreathe]

Very well done presentation that I learned from. Thank-you

Thanks I’m glad it could help you.

[@Kyaroshenko]

Thanks, bro! It's was very interested.

[@threeliliesflowerfarm9129]

We pre sprout our tubers and take cuttings from the tuber shoots to pot up and grow on. We're pinching our dahlias back at the moment (here in New Zealand) and doing the same thing with the pinched material. Hadn't thought of using side shoots so thanks for the great tip.

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

Yep! it works the same way!

[@victoriaguillerault1094]

Gosh, I'm so new at this! So do I need nodes from cut off leaves below the soil line? I t doesn't appear so but that's what I have been told on some other dahlia sites! Thanks!!!

[@lindalagarce8996]

Great information! Letting propagation get dry is why it died on me so I’m going to try to set up this watering system to hopefully help so that it doesn’t happen again,m. Hugs and love from Texas! Yep, I’m binge watching you videos! Lol

[@missmrice91]

Great video thank you

[@donnihatcher2679]

Great info!’ Will the clone grow tubers?

[@cutflower36]

Do you have a web site where you sale dahlias? I'd like to check it out. I root my dahlias too, I just stick them in other pot in the shade. always looking for new varieties.

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

All the dahlia varieties work the same way. Some are a little harder to root than others.

[@pamelaslabaugh4648]

Very informative! Thank you

[@Grrrnthumb]

If you want to dramatically increase your strike rate, make sure those those world's-dullest-pruners get razor sharp, or use an actual sterile razor. No excuse for sloppy, frustrating, tearing cuts that increase cutting losses. Take pride in your tools young man, and keep up the good work!

[@rhondavanmeter5015]

New subscriber today. Where do you wholesale buy your 4" pots, dahlias, and other material from. I've enjoyed binge watching your channel as we are waiting for hurricane Ian to pass through.

[@belindagray3005]

I noticed that my notification bell had been turned off when I tried to turn it back on it wouldn't let me . I had wondered why you had not put out any new vlogs but found out I had missed 3 . I googled what would cause not being able to turn not and the only thing that came up was that the channel might be set for children. I haven't had this problem with any other channels that I know of ( going to go check on each one now ) but wanted to let you and maybe some of your other subscribers know. Surely I can't be the only one. Keep up the good work you are getting better every time . :)

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

That seems weird! I will have to check on it!

[@brownthumbnursery]

I’m not sure how you prep your flower stems when you take them to market, but it seems like maybe there would be some side shoots on some of them that you could take off and propagate as well is that a possibility?

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

Your right! There is. It is just a lot going on in full season with lack of hands to be cutting and bunching 2,500-3,000 a week.

[@silencedflower8441]

I LOVE PROPAGATING 💓 My addiction. I’m going to try this over the winter indoors., I have a beautiful peach beauty that I really want to get more of! Thanks for this tip. I have to dig mine up soon and put them away for winter. Getting frost damage too. 4b.👈🏻😜 🙏🏻💐keep growing.

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

Im glad I can give you some of my insight of how we do it.

[@dc0145a]

Do you label varieties? Do these eventually flower inside? Do you plant these out in the Spring? I have a heated greenhouse; I could potentially do this. 🤔

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

Yes and yes! We are actually making an online course as well as website!

[@cassiegeorge4770]

Are there certain dahlia types that work well with this method? You've previously mentioned growing ranunculus this way too, do you have videos for them?

[@marthaduffy8386]

I was really interested in the cloning process.

[@genevievelariviere84]

Hi! I was wondering if you keep your dahlias all winter in pots in this heated place indoor to plant them next spring or you're planning to have flowers during the winter with these clones?!

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

I don't. We keep them under our house in a crawlspace.

[@Abby-oz4wv]

what is your propagation success rate? Most of the folks showing cuttings sterilize continually and seem very fussy with clean environment? Thanks.

[@Abby-oz4wv]

wow I see the result of the careless approach to propagation in your more recent videos. Your entire dahlia operation collapsed due to disease and infestation. Sorry for you. You might consider updating this video so beginners like me don't follow poor advice.

I'm trying to get Dahlia cuttings to root at home but I can't tell what is a side shoot and what is not. I took about a dozen cuttings so I hope at least one roots

[@WindyBrookRidgeHomestead]

Side shoot is anything that isn’t the main stem coming out called the king Bud.

[@grapefruitpineapple7667]

Thank you

In the grow room can different colors be next too each othet?

Yes! we put them in different rows though.

[@rebeccapem5550]

I may have missed it but how are you heating the basement? I have a small heater in my grow room but it isnt doing a great job nor is it efficient.

A gas heater

About 2,500 bucks
