Do you leave the pots sitting in the water the whole time?

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@pakbowl420 no, just enough to wet the soil

[@gbaner1]

Can I cut a tall shoot into 2 or more pieces if there are enough nodes? I'm in Wisconsin zone 5B. If I take the cuttings in late summer, can I allow my pots to freeze over winter or do I need to keep them from freezing? I took some this winter and tried rooting them in my house like I've done with blackberries. I cut them into sections to have 2 nodes buried and 2 nodes above soil. After about 2 months they leafed out and actually popped out some berry blossoms. I haven't checked to see what the roots look like because it will still be a week or two until the weather is right to plant outside. Did I mess them up by trying to root them in winter?

Thanks Ross, hope you get to give it a try!

[@arlynhuber960]

Looking forward to trying this out on my black raspberries!! I got a question though, do you keep the pots in that water bath for a certain amount of time while taking root or is it just used to presoak the soil? Once they roots are established do you water from the top then? Also, do potted raspberries survive severe winters (in MN here) since they won't be established in the ground yet?

[@lynnbishop9493]

Since raspberries don't like to sit in water, I'd say just presoak. Dunno about snow, but you tried this last year so how did you get on?

Black and purple raspberries do not respond well to cloning via stem cuttings and are best propagated via tip layering.

Hi .. A few months ago. I found 2 raspberry seedlings in my tomato pots. I use 3 different Identifying Plant Apps. All 3 apps told me they are Raspberries. Lol Today they are 3" tall. My question is. How would you winterize these 2 little guys? Maybe leave them in their pot , plant them in the ground . Cover with leaves? Or should I bring them inside under lights? It's getting ready frosty here in Toronto at night. I need to do something soon lol Any advice will be greatly appreciated. All your videos are so informative. This week is nice out. I'm outside with the lawnmower chopping leaves for my Leafmold Bin. Listening to your Play Lists. Cheers

[@michealbonin598]

I love your videos! By far my favourite to watch for anything gardening related. I'm wondering.. after the shoots have been potted. Do they need to be kept in a greenhouse or similar set up to increase humidity? Or will they prosper regardless? And what do I do for winter? Bring them inside? Or leave them outside?

[@lwjenson]

I am wondering the same thing. I was planning on keeping them inside. I l'm just wondering if I have to keep them under lights or not

[@FreeAmerican]

Once they are rooted and growing, they will prosper. Depending on your weather and number of canes, I would bring them in the first winter. They will go dormant.

[@erwydconwyjester7321]

This is amazing. It’s given me the confidence to try taking my own cuttings. Quick question; when do you take the pots out of the water?

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

Thanks Erwyd. I only leave the pots soaking for a half day. It's just to ensure that the soil is good and most all the way through. It's a great way to water really dry soils too. Because you know the pot will be good and moist all the way through, evenly!

[@erwydconwyjester7321]

Ah brilliant. Thanks for clearing that up.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@erwydconwyjester7321 no problem. It works great for really large pots in the summer, like if you're replanting a tomato or pepper plant. Gets the soil good and wet before you plant, without drowning the plants after you plant!

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@erwydconwyjester7321 Its also a technique that mass growers use not just for bigger pots, but also seedling/speedling trays. Often, the seedling potting mixes can be quite hydrophobic. So we soak the trays for a few hours to get the medium good and wet. It eliminates the worry and guesswork, plus you don't have to really water or disturb the plants for the first week!
