How are the Hydrangea Rooted Cuttings Now | 1 YEAR LATER | Triple Cup Method Update

[@barblee9615]

The result from the 3-cup method is amazing, but what amazes me is you can resist removing the blue tape for a year 😄

[@MikeKincaid79]

Lol

[@JS-jl1yj]

I remember watching your video a year ago. That is an incredible result. I would uncover the plant, remove all rotted leaves, transplant it into a deeper pot to cover all roots, and start taking care of it as if it was any other house plant, until Spring when it can be planted in the ground outside.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Thanks for the vote. I'm just amazed that it's still growing in that sealed system with no input. Nature is awesome.

[@camicri4263]

Hi Mike I remember that, it was over a year already! Amazing how resilient plants are! Let it go until you see sign of stress and strangle and then pot it up and fertilize it slightly, this plant deserves to live it's an absolute fighter! Really amazing..... that's my kind of propagation neglect 😊. Awesome video thanks Mike! Great to see you, hugs to you all! Blessings 💞🙏

[@MikeKincaid79]

Hugs, hugs, hugs!

[@SueHawkins6816]

I vote for keeping the Hydrangea cutting in its three cup environment until spring. Then pot it up when the weather is ready. Ammazing results! You are an inspiration when it comes to growing things. I have been using your two cup method for cuttings with a terrific success rate.

[@MikeKincaid79]

I'm really glad to hear that, Sue! I love that 2 cup method for transplanting. I just recently did that with a house plant here.

[@lakeshorevideos8352]

@Mike Kincaid79, I lost my computer & went through MAJOR life changes, but YOU inspired me to get a “fig tree start”!! I’m thrilled to have located you again!! I’ve got LOTS of your videos to catch up on! God bless you & your family!!!

[@Growing-Our-Retirement]

Very cool! I say leave in the 3 cup until spring. Then I imagine you may have to slowly acclimate the plant to less humidity. Then come pot it up. Will be fun to see what you do 🌲🌲🌲

[@MikeKincaid79]

I’m kind of wondering if it’ll last a couple more years in there.

[@Growing-Our-Retirement]

I think it will eventually push the top off!

[@robertdurkin7596]

Hi Mike.. Yes I always to remember your wonderful plants videos, let's growing more plants 🪴 though the fall and winter in the greenhouse, good job, Mike!😉👍👌🍂🍁🏡

[@lesaamoore]

Oh my! I can’t believe you left them for almost a year, wow! Awesome. Not sure I’m into abusing the poor girl. I would like to see the hydrangea have more space for the new leaf growth, and darker leaf growth. So, up-potting or ground, more air exposure, transitioning to hardier sun. That’s my vote cause I lost two of 5 after rooting on transition. I’ve got 3 in ground, very slowing growing new leaf buds, and one from a 12” thin old wood, with leaves growing at bottom that I can’t seem to stop pests keep eating, but are growing back.

[@theoverworkedgardener5648]

Very cool video Mike. At this rate the plant might out last us all in those cups 😂

[@20twenty_sti40]

Amazing! I would love to see it hang out in its own little biodome for the time being. But up pot and plant the other (now 2-cup) hydrangea to see how this one will take off in a larger pot.

[@lesaamoore]

That’s a good idea

[@roberthester5055]

After your original video I did a set of 18 and got all but one. Several with roots like yours and most were too moist so I opened and poured off excess moisture and then retaped. But I switched to 1” tape since the 1/2” had let rain water in, mine have been outside in Seattle all this time. Just this week I did 3 rhodies and cutting from variegated JM.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Nice. I'd love to hear how those plants work out in this system.

[@starjazzbell6941]

This is fantastic! I'd like to see how well it does replanted in the spring. I wonder if it would be super hearty or have a special growing advantage. Then, start another cutting from that one using the same method to see if it does as well or better. Maybe you'd create a super hydrangea.

Wouldn't that be cool!

[@baldyeti]

Keep it air-tight, for sure. Unless it’s growing, it might not be mold. Just saturated plant cells. Air-roots are wicked! Next year when you open it, I’d lay the stem on its side so they can get into the soil before they desiccate and let the new stems shoot up from there. (Raft style in Bonsai 😉)

[@MikeKincaid79]

It's been surviving that moldy (or whatever it is) leaf for a few months now. I like the idea of leaving it in there.

Mike, you the best!! Since using 3 cup method, 100% off the hydrangea cuttings have rooted! I tried to root cuttings from dodonea viscosa which is a native plant in Hawai'i but they didn't root & got moldy. Will have to figure out how to root those..

[@MikeKincaid79]

Nice! Glad to hear of your high success rate. I'm sure there are plenty of plants this won't work for. Here's an article I found about your plant: bit.ly/47hXJ9a

[@sandratronco]

Hii, here in Italy I would take the cups off, plant it in the soil outside and keep on eye on it... if it suffers the cold weather during winter I'd just cover it with a very light cloth till spring and then it's done!

[@MikeKincaid79]

It's a tough time of year to plant this outside. It's use to a warm house and I don't think it would survive the winter here at this point. I miss Italy. Spent 6 months there in 1998, in Aviano, when I was in the Navy. Beautiful country!

[@MikeKincaid79]

Once you see roots growing well in the cup, you can slowly take the lid off over a few days to acclimate the cutting to less humidity.

[@emptynestgardens9057]

I'd take lid off and treat like a houseplant until Spring. I feel like rot is starting to set in without O2.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Thanks for the vote! The leaf that's rotted and stuck to the side started rotting months ago but still hasn't caused any problems. I, like you, thought it was going to kill the hydrangea for sure but it's still going strong.

[@Gladys7477]

But plants don't use O2 They take in CO2 and give off O2 for humans/animals to use. Since it's been this long there must be a balance of the gases inside those cups.

Currently being hardened off outside under shaded patio.I’ve seen your videos on overwintering rooted cuttings and I just want the best advice for the cold season. Should I leave them outside or could they go back to the windowsil where I was successful from the beginning or garage ?? I just don’t want to lose progress they are doing so well to this point. Thanks I’m advance😊

[@trevorjohnson5610]

One more question :a cutting that has rooted but lost the one leaf used to propagate also in window sill is rotted but no new growth but growing roots prior to the leaf drop…is that ok since it’s rooted or is it a problem that I need to get some leaves going and change the environment?

[@garyhamilton2979]

How about a bigger version? Pot it up then seal it again. Can this be done with other plants and is there a reason for not using compost? Good to see you back in the hoop house.

Mike I’ve had various clones in cups in a box and some in 3cup. They’ve all been north side for 8 weeks Light is fading fast and temperature, can I put them in my greenhouse now? I’d keep them in cups and box environments maybe letting air in later. Winter won’t get below 40.

[@MikeKincaid79]

You can do that but they won't really do any growing at 40 degrees. I'm sure you're aware of that.

[@elizabethswindler6099]

Hello. Love your videos. I would like some clarification on what kind of clippings to take. Someone told me that if your clipping already have a flower, that that cutting will never bloom. Is that true or does it matter whether it was flowering or not. If you get a chance please let me know. I don’t want to waste my time or space on a non flowering rooted cutting. Thanks

[@MikeKincaid79]

No, that is not true, lol. Any cutting of the plant, whether it has a flower or not, carries on the same genetic material and contains all the undifferentiated cells in that cutting. Those cells can turn into anything the plant needs to survive and thrive, such as roots, stem, leaves, flowers, etc. I've taken many, many, many cuttings of flowering stems and grown them on into beautiful flowering plants. Good luck and have fun!

[@anne-9374]

[@MikeKincaid79]

Are they inside or outside? Outside, they will go dormant and new growth will emerge in the spring. Inside, you will need proper lighting and fertilizer all through the winter. If they are outside, don't fertilize now. Let them sleep through the winter and then give a dose of slow release fertilizer in the early spring.

I believe he talked about this in another video.

quick question, my dad has a pretty old Hydrangea macrophylla that got whiteish/yellowish leaves (no brown spots or something like that) he never fertilized it. Its yellow leaves on hydrangea basically an iron dificiancy? Thats what i read online anyways, but extra confirmation cant hurt. Also will the yellowish leaves turn green again with the right furtilizer? My climate is not cold enough for it to lose its leaves(8b is pretty much as cold as it gets but most of the time its above freezing temp). So if its only restoring new leaves i might as well prune it in that case.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Yeah, sounds like it needs iron and nitrogen. I’d fertilize with a dose of slow release fertilizer in the spring. The leaves might green up a little but the new leaves will show the best green in the spring.

I remember when you did this experiment last year I cant believe it's been a year It's more fun to see it sealed in the cup If there are major changes to it along the way you can document it for us 🇨🇦🦩

I couldn't agree more. Laughed when I read "boring" lol.

Its going to crash sooner or later so why waste a good plant id make a $20 dollar hole for her now just because she made it that long

[@MikeKincaid79]

Well, nothing lasts forever, but none of us really know what this plant is going to do. It might live 2 more month, might make it 5 years. In the end, everything dies. In the meantime, we can push the envelope, satisfy our curiosity, and learn a thing or 2.

It doesn't look very healthy. It's not supposed to be yellow.

[@MikeKincaid79]

It's all an experiment

@@MikeKincaid79 I can't remember, since I wrote that a month ago, but I'm pretty sure you said in the video that it looked healthy. What does "experiment" have to do with you saying a sickly yellow plant looks healthy?
