Muito obrigado JSacadura. I have successfully propagate local variaties of figs with your technics. I wanted to buy some good variaties of dark figs with juicy red or purple inside. Do you suggest an specific type? I am in the Algarve Portugal. Do you have a supplier in portugal? Thank you again!

I cut a horizontal branch off my Olympian, removed a few leaves from the cut end and stuck it in a pot of dirt. Kept it watered and about a month later, I had another fig. A lot easier! And 100% rooted!

[@goodmusic3679]

Your videos are the best resource on fruit propagation, hands down! I rooted about 150 grape cuttings this winter using these same grow bags - I found that a heat mat (with a spacer) greatly accelerated the rooting process. Quick question: When should you move the cuttings into full sun? My grapes leafed out about a month ago but they haven't done much shoot growth since. I did give them a light fertilizer and they are still in part shade. Since grapes like full sun, I am wondering when/if I should move the bags into that environment. Thank you!

[@JSacadura]

First confirm that the cuttings have well developed roots by sampling some of the bags. If they don't they won't be able to support the rate of water loss by the leaves and I would still keep them in partial shade until they do. Thanks for the comment.

If you rinse the coco coir from the salt the roots will grow fine and being an inert medium has several advantages over the use of black earth.

[@NURKHOTIM234]

thanks for the video, very helpful. unfortunately at my place the conditions of cocopeat are different. I also use it for cuttings or grafting, and I've also uploaded this on my channel, but for some conditions and types of plants, using soil that has been mixed with other ingredients gives better results than using cocopeat. 👍

[@JSacadura]

I always say that growing fruits has a very important local component. What works for you doesn't necessarily works for someone else, who is in an area with different ambient conditions. It's true that coco peat isn't a medium that works well for all plant types. A soil, sand and peat mix, for instance, will be better in some situations. Thanks for the comment and for sharing your experience!

[@mary-yb7wp]

Good video

[@zedsforfun]

I have to say your work is exceptional, so clear and precise, I thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge here. You mention not disturbing roots, once you remove the cutting/plant from the bag, do you leave the coco coir in place then when you pot up?

[@JSacadura]

No. I meant, with the individual containers, we don't need to disturb the roots to separate the plants, which you have to do when they are rooted together, in the same container. Check this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6jRi3R6g69ro6s - at min. 10.00, to see what I mean.

Thanks so much for sharing your precious knowledge! I'd like to confirm if I get your instruction perfectly. You collected the branches in winter and store them in the fridge. Then in early spring you cut the bottom close to the last node, lightly scrape the bark, apply rooting hormone and plant it. Hope I get everything right. Thank you JSakadura!

Yes, correct. Good luck with your cuttings.

Hola, muy buen vídeo y fácil de entender. Estoy tratando de que varios esquejes de higos produzcan raíces usando este método. Yo use zip bag y las puse adentro de un contenedor plástico con tapa y se ven que van muy bien. Una preguntita, ¿cuanta humedad debe tener? El contenedor se ve sudada y con humedad. Además, Las tengo adentro de la casa dándole la luz indirecta del sol a una temperatura de más o menos de 74F… ¿debo ponerla afuera que esta mas caliente? Muchas gracias.

[@jimwhite9483]

Where can I get the bags? Looking forward to trying to root some cuttings from my grandma's fig tree. I really enjoy the videos. Thanks for the time and tips.

[@allanpennington]

I really like your videos thanks. I have successfully rooted raspberries, blackberries and boysenberries which seem really easy. Cut, poke in the ground, watch them grow. to my surprise I have had the same experience with red and blackcurrant which seem very willing to root from cuttings. Blueberries on the other hand have been a challenge but to be fair before I watched your videos I just poked any branch that happened to break or from what I had pruned into the ground and thought 'well if it grows great, if not so what'. But I will try some of these techniques with blueberries although most commercial cuttings are done with soft wood and kept in a mister. Not sure how hard wood cuttings will do?

[@JSacadura]

Softwood cuttings are easier to root with those fruit types. Thanks for the comment.

[@xgoldpt]

Mais um excelente vídeo como sempre. Onde comprou tantas estacas de figueira?

[@JSacadura]

Principalmente em websites estrangeiros embora agora seja mais difícil. Em Portugal, só vendem árvores já enxertadas. Mesmo assim, alguns viveiros portugueses têm alguma variedade à venda (viveiros castromil, viveiros albar, viveiros valter)

Boa noite. Sigo os teus videos a algum tempo e vejo-os todos com muito agrado. Tenho uma duvida sobre uma assunto diferente que talvez me consigas ajudar... Tenho uma ameixoeira que de a uns 4 anos para ca, começou a ter formigas. Quando podava um ramo, estava tudo esburacado e la vinham elas de dentro da árvore atacar. Como me disseram que nao faziam mal deixei andar. Mas este ano mais de metade da árvore morreu. Sabes o que poderá ser e se ainda vou a tempo de a salvar? Já é uma árvore com uns 50 anos, mas tenho duvidas que sobreviva este ano. Obrigado

[@paulbraga4460]

thank you so much for all your videos but particularly this one. a question please - about the timing for when to do things, given our climate/weather. When is the best time to root figs from cuttings? we are in the tropics - Philippines. we have 2 seasons - rainy and summer. we are now in the summer, really hot, so hot all schools, just about, have gone online. this hot period started March. Rains will come towards the middle to the end of May. climate change of course plays a role - sometimes rains don't come in earnest until mid-July and will continue to the end of October. occasional rains over November and December which brings cool weather up to mid-February...so i repeat my question - with this kind of climate/weathher, when is the best time to root figs from cuttings? do grafting? marcotting?...mygreathanks and blessings

[@tribalrock9385]

Olá. Hoje dia 11 de junho fiz umas alporquias. Este mês é o indicado? Obrigado. Bom canal!

[@JSacadura]

It really depends on how hot is this period where you live. In my area it's best to do the air layers a bit earlier. Otherwise, I have to check them often, so they don't dehydrate.

[@delpechmathieu7158]

Great content as always! By the way, I heard pomegranates were very hard to propagate, maybe it was wrong?

[@1965Haval]

Hi JSACADURA. Thank you for sharing this video with us. Obviously these are Fig tree cuttings which they are easy to root from cuttings. My question is can you apply same method to Plum, Apricot, Apple and Pear cuttings?

[@JSacadura]

In the video you can see other fruit types being rooted with the same method (kiwis, grapevines and pomegrantes). So, it will work with other types of cuttings (it just takes longer). But, in most cases, you wouldn't want to root plums, apricots, apples or pears as they will grow much better when grafted to a robust rootstock.

[@BridaRif]

[@nbeizaie]

Hi, I just found your channel and subbed :) I have a fig tree with a lot of offshoots from the ground. I pulled one out and it has some roots. If I plant it, will it produce the same fruit as the mother tree? Also any videos on English walnut pruning? can I cut the leader branch without killing the tree? My plants are in containers and I don't want them to become too big. Thanks.

[@reneek8223]

Thank you for this video. Why do the plants need to be dormant? Could one just cut from a say cherry tree in the spring and then plant from there. I would remove the buds.

[@SeekAndDestroyTM]

Hey J! Sorry to ask this on a video that doesn't discuss it, but is it possible to tbud graft early summer and get some growth during that season?

[@BocageDental]

When you get ready to up pot do you knock as much of the coir off the roots before planting?

[@Arturo-hc9pl]

I want to use this method for pine tree cuttings

[@MrDhuyvetter]

Thank you for your expertise. Where are you located, and what is the climate in your region? I try to do the same in Belgium, in a moderate sea climate, but most fig trees struggle to get their fruit fully ripened. Do you think I can substitute the tape with a wound healing wax like compo lac balm? Parafilm and Ugro coco coir is very hard to find in the euro countries. Online shop tips are very welcome.

[@nkc9788]

Can you root fresh cutting during the growing season?

[@flouserve]

Personalmente mi método es igual, solo que yo voy recolectando los esquejes a medida que los encuentro, da igual el momento del año, ya que se meten al frigorífico, enrolladlos en papel o tela, húmeda y esta dentro de una bolsa de plástico. Llegado el momento sobre noviembre saco los esquejes del frio para plantar, dejándolos al frio del jardín un par de meses, en enero los meto a casa para darles calor, sobre 21ºC y luz día y noche, en 15 días los tengo todos brotando, en cajas de plastico.

Can this be done with cuttings that were taken in the summer? I have purchased plum, apple, and peach cuttings but I have no rootstock prepared. My original plan was to root the cuttings simply to preserve the genetics, then worry about the rootstock later. After I watched the video, I was thinking I could place my cuttings in the fridge and wait until I have prepared rootstock, and graft them late summer or next spring... What do you think my best option is, considering that I purchased the cuttings in the summer? Thank you

[@piopiopiotr]

Where do you buy parafilm? Is there any special grafting kind? I bought some which seems like cheap plastic and doesnt strech as it should. I have seen some Parafilm M which is used to sealing labolatory equipment but it's pretty expensive.

[@JSacadura]

You can find Grafting Parafilm in Amazon. Its more adequate for grafting jobs than Parafilm M. 2 1/2 inch rolls will cost around 12 USD or 8 USD for 1 inch roll . Search for "Parafilm Nursery Grafting Tape" but beware of plastic knockoffs.

[@muhimmanmuhtadi6134]

Have been successful in the rooting at coco coir step, but the root always rot when repoted or let in the coco coir,, any advice maybe?

[@JSacadura]

Coco coir acts as a sponge and absorbs too much water that can rot the roots if you water normally. Keep the plants in coco coir watering very lightly until the roots are older and the plants can resist potting up without dying. Since coco coir is inert you have to add a few drops of liquid fertilizer to the water, to feed the plants until they age enough (you can also use a foliar fertilizer). Check the size/age of the plants in this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6jRi3R6g69ro6s - and the tips mentioned at min 09.30 - At this stage the plants won't die when potting up.

[@realvipul]

woun't it be good to keep the cutting in sunshine for short times to disinfect? 🤔

[@JSacadura]

Do you mean before rooting? You can disinfect cuttings with a very diluted bleach solution. In my experience, most of the times, that's not necessary. Keeping cuttings in direct sun (before or in the first weeks of rooting) is not a good idea as they will, most likely, dehydrate.

[@RM-nm4bn]

It will. Be sure to use softwood cuttings. If you improvise a humidity chamber (using plastic bottles, for instance) there is no need to use parafilm or other types of wrapping.
