Thank You for all the content. I'm over 40 and just learning about propagation by cutting. I've got some 10 year old white Hydrangeas that the roots have become a problem and I think my only option is to completely dig up the area and replant. So stumbling upon your channel has given me hope that I can still keep these beautiful plants while getting rid of the unsightly bits. Every year I chop them back to at least one node showing and every summer they grow back to at least 6 feet tall with basketball sized blooms.

I have had success with hydrangea cuttings each fall by sticking them in a Tidy Cats bucket. I have a few of these laying around at all times it seems, I hate to throw them away so I fill them about 4/5ths of the way up with nice dirt from the backyard. I drill about a 1/2' hole near the bottom of the bucket so it can drain. I trim the cuttings to all sorts of lengths, dip em and jam em them into the bucket. Not too scientific about it. I stick about 25 in a bucket then leave them out on the basement patio protected from sun. I have brought the buckets into the basement of the days of below freezing weather in GA. Come spring time I cut open the sides of the bucket and carefully separate the root clusters. Some cuttings roots are entangled so I leave just leave them as one. I then put them into 6" pots or into larger decorative pots where I can fit 4 or 5 in. It's been lots of fun.

Hi Mike, very nice video - I've been doing cuttings for 30+ years, and you hit everything on the head of the nail "so to speak" the only comment I have is that I use sharp sand in 3 x 8 rooting beds, when I re pot I have to dig the cuttings out of the sand and they are always uncovered roots, and usually quite long. What I have always done is prune the roots before re potting in soil, it's good for the plant and strengthens the root ball. I also do the same thing when re potting my indoor lemon and orange trees (I'm in zone 4) so I have to re pot my citrus every 3 or 4 years and I prune the roots. All that being said, I just want to say "please don't give up on the hydrangea you "sacrificed"" It will grow just fine, it's what plants do, they want to live and they want to grow. All the best to you, God bless and never loose your enthusiasm I really like your videos - Wayne
@MikeKincaid793 жыл бұрын
Thanks Wayne, I appreciate your support! I started with sand over a decade ago and you're right, it makes a great rooting medium. I switched to the bark for the rhododendrons but sand is still hard to beat for most plants.

@@natalieaaby7002 For hydrangea, it's best to root them in the spring/early summer. They will root much more quickly for you and have plenty of time to grow. Having said that, I've seen people root them this time of year but it's more difficult and takes much longer. The cuttings you started in March should be just fine in the containers they're in if you live close to my area.

Hey Mike - tried all this a few years' back after watching one of your videos - Had a very high sucess rate with nearly all the plant species I tried, except for the Rhodies - only a small handfull of them took (and they were all of the same species of Rhody - all other Rhody species' cuttings failed). I'm guessing that it was probably the intense cold and snow that may have been responsible for them failing. .

Mike, you're a good teacher....and I'm a good student. I watched all your videos on hydrangea propagation.. So I said, what the heck, just for fun, let me try it. I did everything they way you did it, to the T. I used Hormodin 3. I don't have a prop tote, so I put baggies over the pots and put a rubber band around the bottom (3 cuttings in each, bigger pot). I put them under the patio umbrella table right between my chair and the side table - no sun, but lots of light. I checked them daily and didn't water them at all since they had plenty moisture. It's been 6 weeks. They are still outside and temps here in the Northeast have gotten to the low 40's 30's at night. I just checked them....and guess what? They all rooted!!! all of them! and they look great! I have to pay closer attention to your teachings on how to acclimate them to hardiness. etc. I'll like to try to bring them inside....? Thanks for the teachings!
@MikeKincaid793 жыл бұрын
That's so awesome! Glad it all worked out for you. Yes, you can bring them indoors for the winter but you'll need good lighting. To acclimate them, just slowly remove the bags and introduce them to less and less humidity over about a week. Alternatively, you can cut holes in the bags and get more air in there. It shouldn't take much or long as long as you have a good root system. Great job, Maria!!!

Thank you Mike. I'm in Charlotte, NC zone 7b. I usually put my cuttings between my Holly foundation shrubs and my house on the south side. It works well, but I may also try some on the north side that you recommend. On the west I have 2 huge Crape Myrtles that give full shade, so I could also use that side of the house, or even under the trees(no direct sun).

Loved this video! I just started propagating all sorts of plants this summer(experimenting so I don't break the bank next season). Had a few successful rootings😊 but did them outdoors. I took some cuttings and plan to take a few more this week (I'm in New Jersey) so will have to root them indoors, due to our cold front. I have a small room, with a tiny window...should I put my grow light in the room? I dont think the tiny window allows enough light into the room. If yes, where should I place the light? I assume NOT overhead? (BTW, none of my cuttings are hydrangeas, but all "seem" to need the same lighting requirement as you described. Thanks! I've loved your videos that I have seen so far🌺🌱
@MikeKincaid793 жыл бұрын
So glad you enjoyed the video! I love making them for you. You may need some supplemental lighting through the winter. The problem is twofold with winter window lighting. One is not enough light coming through the window due to the sun being low on the horizon and two is that the amount of daylight is lower during the winter months so the plants think it's winter even though they are in a warm house. I think it confuses them.

Mike Kincaid plastic beads, huh? That’s worth a try, but wouldn’t that dry out a little too fast? I would be filling my frame with perlite, but I’m not sure whether that’ll hold onto moisture well enough, so I’m using bark, because that’s what you use w/ so much success.

@plantpropagationchannel26033 жыл бұрын
@@Braedenfish yeah, but it's pretty hard to get good sand where I live. I'm pretty sure you want lime-free sand for rooting cuttings, and pretty much all of the sand you can buy around here has a lot of lime in it. the only exception I can think of is pool filter sand, which is just silica sand, but that is probably too fine-grained for this purpose.

True facts. One thing that helped me start getting propagation down (other than watching your videos) was putting a cheap hygrometer/thermometer in the propagation chamber. Then you can know at a glance when your heatpad is malfunctioning and heating the medium up to 105 F, or that there is 99% humidity at 80 degrees and you overwatered them initially, etc.. Before I had some basic data, it was all a frustrating guessing game on what variables I was messing up. Thanks once again for sharing your knowledge
@MikeKincaid793 жыл бұрын
That's a really great idea, Brian! Sometimes I take it for granted because I've been doing this so long and I "just know" what the cuttings need. A hygrometer/thermometer would definitely give factual info that people could work with as they're learning, cutting down on the trial and error. Love the idea.

Mike it's been a few years since I was an Apprentice Horticulturist but does acidity or alkalinity not affect the colour of flowers on Hydrangeas... Blue flowers grow best in acid soils of 5.5 or lower and in alkaline soil of 6.5 or higher... You bring a lot of enthusiasm with your videos and encourage folk to propagate their own plants without going out and buying them each year. 2023 the price of everything for the garden has skyrocketed because of Carbon tax and because of all that people have to go back to their roots and take cuttings following your directions in your videos. BTW I was an apprentice 50+ years ago and I remember having the same enthusiasm as you but now with age and arthritis has affected how much and what I can do but I can still take cutting and if I have too many I share with friends...

All of my azalea cuttings I did last year got pulled like that, and I replanted them in pots w/ pine bark and they all survived just fine. Granted, their roots were much shorter than the ones on your hydrangeas, but those roots grew like CRAZY once they started growing. also in there was one cutting from a ramapo rhody, and he continued to root and grew too, and it’s still alive. I actually lost my original ramapo this year to root rot when it got hot in July, but at least I still have the baby I rooted.
