[@leokimvideo]

The joy of KZbin, suggesting this video to me even though I never do any gardening

[@cherrysmart3500]

😂....well now you can start....with hibiscus..🥰

[@TheJohnGray]

I know it’s an old video so not sure if you’re on here anymore but awesome experiment! Straight to the point and extremely informative

[@ruthwuebbeling5376]

I have viewed many videos on hibiscus cutting propagation and this one by far is the best! Thanks for doing all the hard work for me. Now I can make an informed decision on what is the best method to propagate hibiscus. Great job! Take care.

[@yvonneestrada9011]

[@calamorico]

Great video, loved the lessons! I've been wondering how to propagate those beautiful plants! Thank you sir!!

[@klanious]

That was a great video! Thank you sir.

[@ALittleSmiles]

Wow.. nice to see this.. and knew lots of new things... gr8 thanks!

[@sherrikosches9992]

Wonderful, informative and I actually learned something… thank you!

[@jessicajones641]

Great video! Thank you!! Never thought to use rubber dirt. That looks to be the most convenient way to check root growth!

[@plips71755]

Since you mentioned rubber dirt plugs too - what is the brand or where do you get yours. Rubber won’t absorb water as it is inert. I’m wondering if they are made from compressed coco and a peat which would give you a very spongy grow cube or plug. Thks.

[@stephaniewallace2710]

thank you soo much for sharing, I've been growing cuttings just by sticking them in small pots with potting soil & some just in cups with 1" of water they all have different outcomes,but I'll definitely Ste up my game & start this way. thank you soo much!!

[@b0bfelice]

Thanks for sharing! It was especially interesting to see the various results. Most videos just show "how to" but not usually the proof that it worked.

[@williamgrech4824]

Great video. I love Hibiscus. Do you sell your potted plants? I’m looking forward to your next video. Blessings to you and your family 🙏🏾

[@harryflynn6329]

Awesome video, thanks very much! Appreciate your work

[@mykaratejournal2120]

thanks for sharing your experiment and some great info. learning just never stops 😇😃

[@jessicajones641]

This video helped me so much! I ordered some cuttings off eBay and I decided to follow your lead by using dirt plugs, the hormone powder you used Hormex 8) and I created a mini greenhouse. After 2wks all 6 cuttings are showing new growth and one cutting has roots growing through the dirt plug. I assume the others have roots since they have new growth, but the roots aren’t busting through the dirt plug yet. Two of my cuttings (3wks old) haven’t shown new growth yet, but the small leaves have grown quite a bit so my fingers are still crossed those two survive.

[@saltlifegull4091]

Great info - thanks for doing the comparison - I always wondered about that!

[@jorgecarmona2447]

Very good info 👍👍👍🌱🌱🌱

[@kertdelacruzbaran271]

I love the ideas

[@mjzata8591]

wow thank you ! so inspiring and a project for this summer...you mentioned to do this at the hot time of the year..so i have about 3-4 weeks to prepare the area...i am not sure if you are still reading comments since your video was in 2015, but can i put them in the ground after they have rooted like in your video?

[@laurennail]

so helpful! thank you!

[@panumartlamangtong2514]

Thanks so much for your VDO !

[@LibertyLakeWildlife]

What is the "Rubber Dirt" that is mentioned in the video for planting media? I can't find any references to that using Google. Looks like good stuff to use so am interested in it.

[@lilcutter1100]

Hey great video what's the name of the rubber dirt an where can I get some

[@ladymary72]

thank you. very good

[@allpixels63]

Very nice.

[@plips71755]

Thanks for all the information. Can you please explain what rubber dirt is? I have been growing a long time but have no idea what this is and can’t find it on the internet either. I do know of root riot plugs, and similar grow plugs - but those are all made from organic biodegradable materials such as varying blends of compressed coco and peat - some with nutrients. Thanks bunches.

[@joannthompson765]

Where do we find this rubber dirt?

[@merrilllester]

Are all the hibiscus cutting propagated in the misting tents?

[@sv4673]

Thank you!

[@melchairericafort1075]

what kind of medium you use, sir?

[@geraldburton9902]

What do I search for to find rubber dirt?

[@mariadebreczeni6284]

wanderfool!!

[@ger3dine]

Very good video. Rubbrr dirt,? What's the brand name and what dtirr can I funf it in. Do you mean rubber mulch?

[@plips71755]

I think he is talking about grow plugs like Root Riot but they aren’t rubber. They are coco/peat blend compressed to give you a spongy cube/plug. Rubber won’t absorb water. It looks like a couple of folks have asked but no answers - maybe the club he mentioned or the Hibiscus Society might knkw what he is speaking of because he is definitely saying rubber dirt. It can’t be rubber mulch because that is a compressed cube and again that mulch is used because it doesn’t absorb water, get muddy and it cushions little bottoms on playgrounds. If you have figured out what he is talking about, please advise. Thks.

[@roycruz7636]

Thank's Sr moms love them, what month of the year do you cut them to plant them ?

[@jhh70]

Awesome

[@maravenu1512]

thankyou very much for ur informative video! do you keep these outside? what are that dirt medium and foam one called? what type of soil they require? do u sell ur cuttings sir?

[@plips71755]

Well after thinking more - I decided to check the Hormex site to see if they offered a rooting plug similar to the Root Riot ones and they do. So maybe he is using the Hormex rooting plugs since he ordered their hormone. But if so, they aren’t rubber - exactly what I said they were. Sure hope he answers so we know for sure since several folks have asked. Hope this helps some others.
