[@Bonsaicrazy]

Great video guys, that’s a good strike rate. I may give this a go thanks 👊👊👊

[@KitakuBonsai]

You should! Wishing you great success!!

[@MehranAshkanian]

Good success rate. But dont you think if you planted the cuttings in late winter you would have gotten a better results or given hem some bottom heat and some light by growing light. ? I am going to to as yu did with Junipers in end of Feburary with some light and bottom heat and see what happens Good like my friend 👌👌

[@KitakuBonsai]

You could be right. Bottom heat is a commonly recommended approach. I’m just trying to nail down a technique that’s as minimalist as possible. I’ve got nothing against heat or grow lights, I’m just trying to work with the cycles of nature as they are.

@KitakuBonsai Great idea. Seems you're doing much better with the bottom heat and grow light. Good luck Jelle.Keep giving out great videos👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👍👍🌲🌲

Why would people say you can't take cuttings from Junipers? They are one of the easiest trees to make cuttings from!

[@KitakuBonsai]

I don’t know either my friend, but sometimes people really think they know it all, and they rain on your parade. I just keep doing my thing. Thanks for your support 🤘

@@Yurup Hi my friend. I"ve never been successful with Juniper cuttings. But in about 6 weeks time I'm going to start with Jelles' technique . Wish me luck 👍👍🙏🙏
