Mist Propagation - Rooting Nursery Plants Like the Big Guys

[@lucybrenton149]

Good morning! Just in time! I have failed at propagating due to lack of consistent watering. This will help. Please keep your content going… it IS making a huge difference! Thank you to you and your whole family for working so hard ❤🎉

[@blubbietweeduizend]

When in doubt, lift the tray. If it feels light then it needs water.

[@jkkelley7582]

Love, just love this new mist system! I know nothing about a system like this! Thank you for showing all about it!

[@John_GGG]

Bonus points for the sun savvy hat.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Bright, hot days are here. Wife stays on me about sun protection, and, she’s right.

[@anniathome]

Perfect timing, sir! Thank you! My husband has been trying to figure this out for me. I’m sending him this video right away! Blessings!

[@chadolson6889]

Can you provide a link to where you got those misters from?

[@teresaholland4790]

Thank you Sabi, dirt Farmer I need this East Coast of Florida crazy winds go out and or excessive rain. Go figure I will watch intently.😂❤

[@jakemoniz5622]

I always love to see new additions at the nursery! I hope yall grow for many years to come 😊

[@amsohn1]

Thanks Creig, great info... blessings ❤

[@dianegrammy]

Thank you for your step by step instructions on this. Love all your videos and seeing your kids helping you!

[@denisebalog994]

Craig, I'm not seeing the misting deals on the links posted. Bootstrap or your Amazon store. Very interested in purchasing through your link. 👍 Thank you.

[@Lynnhopeacres]

Was just wondering about your new mist system this week compared to last year and look here it is!

[@HustleSquad-mn8vx]

I love hydrangeas & roses and I want endless amounts of each I think I didnt mist enough before

[@ClearwaterAngus]

Whats the name of those mist nozzles or tubes id like to try this style

[@mikespillman5086]

Do you have a video on what you do with your cuttings once they’ve rooted going into winter? How they should be stored over winter?

[@shelliconaway37]

Thanks for this video! Gives me some ideas on mine ❤

[@DannyTDeese]

Hi , I Love your Videos! Where are you getting those Drip heads Can't find them anywhere? Thanks

[@denisebalog994]

Excellent 👍🌱🌱🌱 I'm all about drip system for my gardens and my heart skipped a beat with excitement because I am literally at this stage of getting ready for my hydrangea propagations 🙌🙌🙌⚡💦 I don't have to figure out something new, just get those stick deals, the second timer and go👍 I have the frame and shade cloth too. Curious, what percentage of shade cloth do you use? I have 40 and a few panels of 65. Wondering if 50 would be the sweet spot. Thank you so much! I'm about to close my Nursery for this part of the season. Opened 2/1 through Memorial Day. It's been a push and labor of love. I actually have a greenhouse business interested in my perennials.🤗🌱 Time to get back to growing and perfecting the propagation side. 👍🌱💦 As always, thank you 🤗

[@drewjohnson4673]

Where can I get these mist heads and the legs? Thanks, Mike

[@Growing-Our-Retirement]

Looking great. Interested to see how the shade cloth works Vs plastic.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Me too! Will keep it updated here

[@ronfarquhar9319]

What about heavy rain,with just a shade cloth? I guess they media will dry ou,t?

[@savvydirtfarmer]

I don't do a thing. It dries out ennough. That's why having a good draining media (not sopping wet) is critical.

[@brownthumbnursery]

Would you mind sharing the model number of that dig timer? I can’t seem to find one that does down to seven seconds and repeat every 10 minutes.

[@lilyrosedaisyvioletsweetpe1207]

💚💚

[@nrbrtmuller]

Been looking for those misters for 2 years, can't find them anywhere

[@patsfaith]

Question: Why not drill your hole in the white tubing and the use the barbed end (that you cut off) and insert it in the white tube? That’s basically a drip system, you’re just using a different supply tube. 🤔

[@savvydirtfarmer]

The PVC is too rigid (hard). Poly tubing that the barb is made for, has some “stretch” that allows the bard to work with.

[@patsfaith]

@@savvydirtfarmer Gotcha!! Thanks for the reply! :)

[@NickPirone]

Hey where did you get the misters at? Thanks

[@kckola4553]

What are the mister models and where do you purchase?

[@Dicofol1]

Can we use a regular sprinkler pop nozzle instead of these spray heads ?

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Use whatever works.

[@teresaholland4790]

Me too 😢

[@alexsummersell3567]

What is the model number of your DIG irrigation valve?

[@ourcoupleofacres8859]

Same question please!

[@stevepilz9107]

And a third

[@wb4833]

Dig 710 AP

[@alexsummersell3567]

Thank you.

[@podskizee]

what misters do you use?

[@Couldnt-think-of-a-clever-name]

What kind of bender is that for the conduit? When I google search it just comes up with hand benders.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Pipe bender made for this application. There's a link in the video description.

[@angiebaker3693]

where to buy the mist ?

[@timothykrott7248]

I'm no where near as big as you, I have a couple hundred perennials propagating. I mist mine inside my 10x16 poly tunnel.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Excellent! I need to get better at perennial propagation myself

[@timothykrott7248]

@@savvydirtfarmer my success rate went way up when I started misting.

[@DJDOUBLE077]

I had the same problem last year. I ended up adding roll up sides to my greenhouse so i control wind and avoid rain. This works great for me. My current Achilles heel is rodents eating my rooted cuttings...please HELP!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

I’ve been fortunate so far and that hasn’t been a major issue here.

[@Couldnt-think-of-a-clever-name]

Cats maybe? Mine just presented us with a mole.

[@countrygoodsusa]

Thank you so much for your insight. I just got my nursery license and I am starting propagation. I have a question, can I start without a mist system? I want to do this but I haven't quite gotten it worked out. Did you start by hand watering? Is there an option to do that with success?😊

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Look at my propagation video from 2 or 3 weeks ago for a different method.

[@buckWildest]

look into mist bed propagation. i make hundreds of starts using one that is only 3x6ft and i cost me about 150 bucks to make if your creative and handy. my first round of fig trees that came out of it make me about 600 bucks profit and paid for the whole system.

[@Couldnt-think-of-a-clever-name]

We just got ours, too! Now I'm binge watching all his videos lol. I can't more subscribers but I can double your views from just me alone lol
