My dad would only use rooting hormone with things difficult to root. Even though rooting hormone helped things root quicker, he believed that the healthiest plants emerged from those that rooted without hormones. My dad had the grenest fingers of anyone who was not professionally involved in gardening. He came from a long line of gardeners and has taught me a lot. It's great to see you teaching others.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Your dad sounds like a cool dude!

[@CaptainMattsWorms]

Great Video Mike! Have you tried adding some worm castings as you are rooting? I raise millions of worms for fertilizer for my garden and also to show others how to care for them :) the results are outstanding!

My parents have overgrown grapevines that are probably 100+ years old. Been thinking about getting some cuttings and seeing about rooting them up for anyone in the extensive family who'd like to have a piece of the old farmstead.

Right on! That's what it's all about

[@geodegroot8310]

It's always a blessing to have a great family farm crew to help with the research! With the average current farming age of 55 years of age, it's great to see that young farmers are ready to take the bull by the horns! Thanks for the grape insight.

You may use as well lentils. Leave a bunch of them for 4 days in a glass with some water. After you see them developing some roots of their own, mash them and you get a nice natural rooting hormone. You may keep it in a fridge for about 15 days to use it with everything...from graoe cuttings to apple tree cuttings. Love your videos. Cheers!

[@surfingranny2011]

I was taught 3 buds to a cutting. Slanted cut below bottom bud and root hormone it. Plant TWO bottom buds underground to form roots, leaving top bud above ground to grow the vine. Root hormone comes from willows. You can make your own 'rooting water' by cutting up a willow branch in small pieces and pouring hot water over them. When cool, you have a solution to place cuttings in for better rooting. And walnuts have the opposite of the willow. Things don't grow under walnut trees as they are anti-rooting.

[@verizonwireless4402]

I have been taking cuttings from all the plants. Thank you so much . Love to watch all the videos from you. I learn a lot.

[@MikeKincaid79]

So glad you're learning from them. Have fun taking cuttings!

[@stelviodelbrava6218]

I saw your helpful videos and tried grafting European Cabernet Sauvignon on American rootstock that is resistant to Phylloxera. Omega grafting, then waxing them and sticking them in a bucket with basic garden soil in a very small greenhouse. 80-85% rate of success. Initially I kept all the cuttings in the fridge for three-four months. I believe that when you take them out of the fridge, graft them and put them in a warm greenhouse, they callus like crazy and develop fast roots. Thanks, man! Greetings from Europe.

So glad to have found this. My friend has beautiful sweet green seedless grapes in her yard growing for over 40 yrs. I took a four nice “semi-hard” cuttings the other day, brought them home and some parts were growing sideways & I can’t tell which was the top from the bottom. Any suggestions to determine that? Love your videos and that you actually answer questions. I always give LIKES when questions are answered. ♥️Love your rose videos too. I had over 55 roses at one time. I’m excited to duplicate many of the others I have. One of my favs is a long stemmed red rose called Veteran’s Honor. Very prolific bloomer here in Portland Oregon, resistant to disease, never see fungus on it, very sparse fragrance, but huge deep red blooms galore all summer long. Thank you - so happy I found your vids. 😘

[@MikeKincaid79]

Thanks so much for the nice comment and support, Jan! Thank you also for the red rose recommendation. I'll look for that one at the nursery. To tell the top from bottom, you can always look at the bud sites. There will be an area where the previous years leaves fell off the branch in the fall and a scar will be left behind. The new bud is always just above that scar. Good luck and have fun!

Mike, it's great to see your cute garden assistants. I love that they are learning so much from you about propagating different plants. Great life lessons! I've decided that tomorrow morning, bright and early, I'm going to take cuttings from all of my different hydrangeas, my variegated red-twig dogwood, my burning bush, and from my hardy hibiscus, so I can propagate them. I'll call them my Independence Day plants because I'm liberating them from their parent plants. Okay, so that was lame, but I'm ready to go, with planting medium already in the pots. I just got a brand new container of rooting medium too. I finally used up the old jar. I hope your family has a wonderful 4th of July weekend! ~Margie

[@heavymechanic2]

I worked commercial farms (Idaho & Washington) when I was a young man, its completely different from the backyard garden model by using tons of fertilizer and more pesticides than is reasonable. I started using organic products like fish & kelp, once I figured out how the soil food web works, people tell me I have mad gardening skills. Our property has a Concord grape that was planted in the 40's (according to a visitor). I took a cutting in January when everything was completely frozen, in a few weeks the hardwood cane was budding leaf growth in a water bottle filled with potting mix. Did the same thing with a Blueberry Grape and gave the rooted cutting to a lady in a medical office.. Learning from this channel and have some success this year with peach trees indoors in a cool room.

Here is an idea for an experiment: Coat the entire cutting that is going to be above ground with parafin (either canning parafin or melted candle wax) to control drying out of the cutting. See if it helps, doing some with parafin and some without.

[@MikeKincaid79]

I know a lot of people do that. I just never have a problem with them drying out so I don't worry about it. I suppose a hotter or drier climate may need this.

[@greenfingersclubmalta]

There’s no need for that, unless you live in a desert

And simple mulching would be preferable rather than wasting candle wax or using paraffin petroleum based by products.

Thanks Brian. Once they develop enough roots, just pot them up, fertilize, water, and grow them on for a year in a protected area. The following spring you can plant them with more confidence. I've planted newly rooted cuttings directly out in the garden and had great success but there is an element of rolling the dice with that if the weather is bad that year or you get some early frosts.

you can root a mucadine easy just leave a long vine when purning in fall droop it down to the ground place some dirt on it and leave a foot or more uncovered at the tip end next spring check for roots if so cut main vine bring back up to the wire dig up the rooted vine plant where you need it

[@c.d.7742]

Thanks for this video as I have one Coronation vine that survived up here in cold Canada and would like to propagate it. I started four cuttings I purchased from a grower, and only this one seemed to be hardy enough to survive winters up here. Your girls must really enjoy learning horticulture hands on. When I was a kid many decades ago I loved doing gardening here on the farm with my parents. Seeding was my favourite part, but weeding during summer not so much. Back then we pretty much grew all our own vegetables for winter food supply.

[@MikeKincaid79]

We grow quite a few vegetables every year and my wife cans close to 50 quart jars every year. We do a lot of pickles, beets, and green beans. I'd like to do a big project this summer of growing tons of broccoli so we can blanche and freeze it. We tried it last summer on a small scale and it worked out well.

Thanks for the info! I'm starting some grape vine cuttings today. I'm wondering if, instead of using rooting powder or gel, if watering with willow water can make a difference? Do you have any expeience with that?

[@MikeKincaid79]

I've played around with it a little but no official experiments. I found a study (and there's limited info) showing that it isn't effective and doesn't contain the hormones that we think it does.

I need to figure out which variety of grape I have growing and then get a couple of cross-pollinator varieties. The grapes on it are plentiful this year but with a cross-pollinator, they will produce more grapes and much more flavorful. Great job, Mike!

[@MikeKincaid79]

Yes, I agree 100%. I've got 3 different varieties here just for that reason. They seem to produce tones of grapes and the grapes are getting bigger and better developed each year as the vines mature more each year.

Most grapes are self-fruitful, so cross pollination is seldom necessary. My biggest problem with grapes is the over abundance of grapes on a vine. I have to prune the bunches back so the ones I leave are big fat grapes.

[@magahoochi2]

How often did you water them in the winter while outside? Thanks. Great video.

Not too often, just enough to keep the medium moist. During the colder times, that can be once a week. When it gets hotter in the summer, it can be once a day.

[@旖丁]

Mike, That is a great demo! I just bought some of the very same kind of hormone you are using here. Question: can I root grape vines in mid April in Texas or is it too hot already? I may have missed it, but what is the time frame it took to root those vines?

[@MikeKincaid79]

They root in about 6 to 8 weeks. As far as rooting them in April, it depends on if the new growth has already started and how far along it is. It's best to get them started right before the new growth emerges.

[@lukeott58]

I have to know how much you cutting goes in the soil? It looks like 1 node in the ground and 2 nodes above the ground??? Curious if anyone sells cuttings? Great job and great helpers. Thanks Mike 😊

[@laughatapes3781]

. Can we propagate these cuttings in the Fall inside a greenhouse, or it must be done only in the late Winter time? I've got some cuttings, but not sure if I did the propagation now, will work out too.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Yes, you can do this at any time through the late fall and winter. I prefer the late winter because they will root and then have all summer to grow big and healthy. If you root them now in a greenhouse, you have to manage them all winter with a heat and light source. You can also just stick the cuttings now and wait for them to root when the weather warms. I'm not sure what the advantage of that would be.

Just pruned my grapes today (very late) and I saved several pieces and I'm going to try to root them. Just ordered some of the same root hormone you use through your link, but it won't be here for several days...you think it would be ok to just take them out of the soil and still dip them in the hormone (and stick them back in) or might cause some type of shock?? 🤔

[@MikeKincaid79]

I'd put them in a plastic bag and into the fridge for a few days until the hormone gets there. I had pruned my grape vines and the vines just sat out in the open for a few days on my burn pile before I decided to go back and take some cuttings, and you see how they rooted!

[@redshedacres]

I'm assuming you keep the cuttings moist during their potential rooting time and then perhaps put them in a container for water to keep them moist by osmosis? I have just started some cuttings as you described and watered them in. Now I'm not sure about the moisture directions.

[@MikeKincaid79]

They aren't sitting in a container with water. I just water them every few days.

[@ltgemini1599]

Hi. I received a large concord vine (5ft??) on a mature woody stalk in a large nursery pot. It came from a very overgrown bush at leat 30 ft tall, crawling up a tree.. It has 3 small bundles of unripe grapes on it. Its July in Ohio. Can I keep it in the container during winter in an attached unheated garage until spring? Should I try to prune it this year? I can keep it outside but didn't want to have it buried in snow. Thank you!!

[@MikeKincaid79]

Yes, you can store it in an unheated garage or shed and it should do just fine. Make sure to keep the soil moist through the winter (but not soaking wet). I prune my grapes in late winter.

[@BrentFullmer]

How long after cutting are the cuttings still viable? Do they need to be planted immediately? How long can you go after cutting them from the original plant before they're just dead?

[@MikeKincaid79]

As long as you care for them, they'll continue to grow. They just need food and water.

[@Dino_Dani_]

Cool video! What kind of soil do you recommend using? Do you water them often or do you let them sit? Is it possible to start a grape growing in the summer/fall months in California?

[@MikeKincaid79]

Here's a good video about propagation medium: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m327eaxqdplgrs0 I water just enough to keep the medium lightly moistened, but not waterlogged. That could mean once every 2 weeks in the winter or once a day in the summer. I take grape cuttings from previous seasons growth in the early spring before the buds break. That being said, you can probably root them in California now, just find some older wood. Might even have time to get some green cuttings going in your climate.

good show mike and the girls. i guess the hormone does the job. i'm trying to root geranium cutting. grandpa used to take a vine on the plant, put it in the ground with the extended leaves exposed, put a rock on top of the buried part, and voila, a new plant. happy 4th guys.

Hey Mike and girls, awesome video!! Gotta love those roots (it never gets old seeing roots like that). Mike could you do an experiment showing which rooting hormone roots best?? Clonex vs Dip n Grow vs Hormodin 3. Please I want to purchase a rooting hormone for my cuttings but don’t know which one is best and I want to give them their best chance you know. Please?? I would really appreciate it. Thanks Mike!!

Not sure if you saw it but I did a whole video on just rooting hormone a couple years ago and my thoughts on it. I don't think one is better than the other, just different hormones and concentrations for different plants and types of cuttings.

use natural hormone. try honey, even human spit, really. research it

Which brand of rooting hormone works best on grape vine? I had to cut down a vine that had grown up into a tree and was kind of bummed to see it was already sprouting tiny grape bundles way up high, but now that I cut it down I want to cut up the vine in several pieces, root them and replant it where it will get more sun at a part of my fence where I can reach them once they bear fruit. I'm looking at several rooting hormones on Amazon and not sure which is best for this type of plant.
