So it has been 3 years now did any of the cuttings take?

Hi I’m in Bowie, Maryland . The way you described about the persimmons, I really love to have couple of those tree if possible. I don’t mind to pay for them. Not sure if you’re close to me, but open to driving to your desired location and get them. So far I bought 4 of them from reputed local nurseries but they never gave me any persimmon fruit Thanks in advance.

Can they be rooted by trying it in the fall? I just found some amazing trees I'm gonna go ahead and try it and if it fails I'll try again next spring. I've successfully roots grapes and figs from a fall cutting. Granted only a few rooted but they're noce new plants now. I can't believe I never knew about persimmons in NJ

And when I take cuttings I soak them under water with a little H2O2 (peroxide) to sterilize it just in case there' was any mold hitching a ride on the bark of the branches

if you go my previous comment, i do not remove the cutting from the pot once the green leaves developing. the cutting starts in a sandy soil so it can take root easily. once the green leaves showing, it still needs time for the rooting to develop. this is why there is no way to check the root is strong enough. i use the thick pint size pot with bottom hole for water drainage. when the buds turn to green leaves, it still not rooting, the leaves will eventually allow the root spout at few months. what i did, not to disturb the rooting process is to make holes at the bottom half of the pot before transplant to the ground with the pot. the root will eventually develop to penetrate the paper pot. that's why i use sandy soil so the root can develop easily. also the root will maintain its sandy soil environment when transplant. after transplanting, use root hormone dilute with water per instruction. i hope this solve your mystery why the cutting leaves fall off

i plant the cuttings with the pt/qt size paper pots inside the garage to keep it warm from cold weather at night. also wrapped in a plastic bag and tie with a string; after ten days, spray few drop water into the plastic wrap and close for another ten days. this is done when there are buds showing on the cutting. after a month, yellow leaves will develop. spray water into the bag and close it for ten more days. do not expose to sunlight or the leaves will break off. the root does not develop until the leaves spout from yellow to green. please read above comments so i won't have to repeat the detail on transplanting to the ground.

@@grandwonder5858no and never heard this before. i cut 2"length around the outer layer of the branch, smear aloe or root hormone on the exposed area. uses a long screwdriver to make a large hole into the wetted compose, in a large quart-size container pot with holes for water drainage. large enough to insert the branch. you can try two branches per container, fill in the branch with wetted compose. place the plant into a garbage bag and tie the opening. this will keep the moisture within and keep warm. after ten-day, spray some water into the bag damping the compose but not drowning the plant. you can repeat every other day until the new leaves appear. do not transplant to the ground until large leaves grow. that's when the root begins to sprout. when the branch multiplies more leaves, and more water sprays into the bag. when the weather is warm, transplant to the ground that is well-drained. otherwise, it will cause root rot and die. The best time for root-cutting propagation is during Spring when the leaves grow. it takes at least ten months for the root propagation. i would leave it in the car garage next to the water heater during winter. i made a mistake transferring too early when the green leaves appeared, but the roots were barely showing. it's better just leave it in the pot for a good 1-2 years. remember to transplant where the sun is best and a lot of water on well drainage ground.

Hi, do you know how long does it take to fruit from the this rooting process?

@rtchow3000 3 жыл бұрын

starting from seed takes forever. also you never know what type persimmon from the seed. once the cutting takes root, will take at least three years. following year will increase more, depends how you maintain it. do not allow water set in root area. should have proper drainage. use compose mixed with dirt 1 to 1. i uses cow manure already mixed with compose or chicken manure with 70% dirt 1% chicken manure. chicken manure can burn the root. i would not use chicken manure until matures 1 to 2 years old. i bought one that was just a a year old. takes another year for the plant to migrant to the new soil. the third year, few fruits. some years may get less bc the rain or lack of it. i did start many cutting from a mature tree. once the cutting is cut, keep it wet in a newspaper. i took a main branch and divide many cuttings that barely shown budding. cutting should be about 18" length. before insert into a sandy loom soil pot, use a stick to make hole to insert the cutting so the sand will not wipe off the aloe vera sap. smear the cutting 4-6" from the ground end with aloe vera. you can buy this plant leave in walmart garden/veggie section. do not disturb the cutting while waiting for the buds to develope with leaves. to avoid breaking the new rooting, best to start the cutting in a paper pot or pint size/qt styrofoam cup with holes at the bottom to allow water to drain off the pot.. when the green leaves showing, transplant the leaves cutting WITH the pot into the ground when the spring weather is warm. before putting the pot into the ground, make multiple holes around the pot side bottom half, this way you are not disturbing the rooting. the cutting rooting will work their ways into the outer pot as the plant gets more mature and taking hold to the outer surrounding. use root hormone with water once the cutting is transplanted. i live in northern calif great for persimmon growth. don't over water young plant and a good runoff. one extra precaution. persimmon roots running every which way, plant it away from the water pipe/sewage pipe. i would trim the top off branch to keep it manageable once reach maturative. persimmon can grow up to 10-15 feet. i will sell cutting once buds show on cutting. look for eBay under FIRESIDEVARIEITES if you interested in buying. not sure the price, depends on the competition.

@rtchow3000 3 жыл бұрын

you can do different methods by air root propagation. on a mature tree. find a suitable Y-branch, prefer a new branch coming off the matured branch. cut around the branch outer layer 2" in length. use a round plastic water bottle, cut it in half, cut off the neck, fill the bottle with wetted compose, tie the bottle very tight. wrap alum foil around it to keep out light and heat. the main branch will supply the nutrient as the rooting propagation takes place. it will take at least 6-10 months to see the roots sprouting when removing the alum foil. check frequently for rooting progress and cover each time. when the roots get thicker, you cut the end off the main branch at the Y junction. apply water at all times since the root is very tender. create a large ball shape compose of potato sackcloth or any thick cloth that will hold moisture. find a good drainage area to transplant the new plant. add root hormone to prevent root shock. persimmon tree requires frequent water. hope this will help those newbies. you can do this on other fruit trees as well.

Fuyu persimmons are the best. I had a huge tree in the backyard of my childhood home that my grandparents planted. Each season, the tree would yield at least 50 persimmons. Sadly, we had to move and we didn't think of cutting any of the branches to replant. :(

@healthhappinessandhobbies4662 3 жыл бұрын

Well more than likely the one your grandparents planted was grafted and if you took a cutting probably would not have survived. But you could’ve gotten a wild one which grows all over the East Coast and use that for the root system

@@GardeningwithZiggy I totally agree. Based on what I experienced, it works on grapes, mulberry, plum, etc but not on persimmons. Mulberry (dwarf) tree is the easiest one to propagate. I made a lot of them before and was quite successful. Gave most of them away to friends and my wife's co-workers. They were so happy because the tree produces a lot of fruits similar to blackberries. Fruits were smaller and sweet.
