Trying to Propagate Pine Trees From Cuttings

On our urban Homestead, one of our favorite pine tree branches broke so I decided to try and propagate the branches to grow more trees. I have had great success in the past with other trees and plants using this method. Thank you for watching. God bless!

[@user-jv5qz1pn7b]

I found a rather green "Xmas" tree pine that I'm going to try and clone all the cutting id expect to have a good couple dozen. That be cool if any worked being it's been preserved in cold outside for over 2 months

[@eremas1359]

I'm from Massachusetts so I'm surrounded by pine trees, specifically Pitch Pines. And I'm so excited to grow some of my own. Thanks for the video! It's given me all the essential details I need.

[@kenjikotaro6586]

Did I just know that cutting techniques can be done on pine plants thenks for the new info

[@hongopedo]

Pine trees are really hard to propagate by cuttings, it's not impossible, but almost. As you probably know, conifers are always hard to propagate this way, as they take ages to form roots (usually about 6 months), and usually die before rooting (without you knowing it, as they can remain green even after two years without roots if the humidity is high enough), but from all conifers, the family Pinaceae (pine trees, spruces, firs, etc) are the hardest... And I see a big problem: pine trees can't sprout from wood, they need their needles (the buds are hidden between each couple), so it is impossible for the ones without leaves to survive.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Thank you for the comment - I appreciate your input. majority of my cuttings have pine needles remaining and I'm hoping for the best. I did mention in my video that it takes at least a year to root and that I am hoping for them to root. I have propagated other types of plants and wanted to try - that's the beauty of gardening - try, try, try - if you don't try you'll never know. I do think that the cuttings with new growth will do the best in time. One thing I do know that is fruitful is growing pines from seeds (from the same tree). I show this in my I Grew Pine Trees From Pine Cone Seeds kzbin.info?o=U&video_id=3e9HTdw0ufk if you are interested. Blessings.

[@Zha_reef]

hongopedo MpAp yes very very hard ...i try it for a year ,but they all die,it’s like impossible

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Muhammad Zharif that’s the beauty of gardening. It is difficult to propagate From Cuttings but i think the conditions need to be just right. A Do Not Disturb sign needs to be on the pine cuttings (lavender too). If u mess with them and keep checking they will fail. Keep covered, out of direct sun and water occasionally and they should take. It is actually so much easier growing from pine cone seeds than cuttings. But then again i like the challenge. Thanks for the comment. Blessings

[@Madelin26]

Iba a sembrar unos esquejes pero ya que dice eso no voy a pasar trabajo demás.

[@chuckgoecke]

In general, almost all hardwood or conifer cuttings are hard and have a low success rate, like single digit percentages. But on the other hand, it's easy too take a lot of cuttings, so just take dozens, 100's, and hope for the best. But don't crowd them too much, and check them often and remove any with fungus quickly. Try various techniques for different species. I would consider 5 or 10% success a good result.

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

It's best to use the springtime shoots or candles as cuttings. Wait until the candles bloom in late spring and use them as cuttings. Pine rarely strike roots from hardwood

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I will try the candles in late spring - thanks for the tip. I have tried propagating pine in all four seasons, new growth, hard growth and semi - i only had one root (new growth in spring) but it died - i like propagating from seeds😂 my success rate is virtually 100% (depending on my care😂). Blessings

[@avenstrand8432]

Thanks, owing to try my hand at this. Thanks for the teaching!

[@OrganicallyAnn]

You are so welcome! Try using a stronger root powder for woody plants like Hormex #16. The ones from the box stores are not strong enough. Be patient, you may have to try several times before you have success. Be careful with it, wear a mask and gloves with any rooting hormone. Blessings 💚

[@WorldRockumentaryChannel]

Did you have great success? I have a mondell pine in Arizona. First year after getting a 6 foot tree in the ground and to survive the brutally hot summer was very difficult. The spear of the tree died back because someone forgot to water it. Lost about a foot and a half. It's growing great right now. I wish there was a way to graft a new spear on it. Very rare I've found. There's only one video on youtube about doing that. That video is a pro on a pine tree farm. Great video, hope they all rooted for you.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

These propagations are extremely difficult - in fact i only had one root, i messed with it and then it died.That little root system gives me hope; however it has been extremely disappointing thus far. My propagation fro pine cone seeds video has done remarkably well. I have 8 trees that are almost 3 ft tall. Thanks for watching - i hope you have great success 💚 Try using the root tone for woody cuttings, i believe it’s a level 16.

[@Super122891]

I have alot of success cloning plants with just water in a bottle and the bottom of the plant barely touching the water.. I guess it tells the plant that hey.. if your roots don't grow then you can't reach this water 😂 I get roots fast.. but I haven't tried with an evergreen plant.. trying it today

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Let me know if you have success with evergreens 💚

[@b2manufacturing]

Pines don’t seem to like being rooted, it’s nearly impossible, sterilized medium is necessary, and my success rate for rooting most pines is less than 20%, BUT grafting them I have an 85% success rate. Propagating pine isn’t usually done this way in a nursery setting due to the failure rate, usually we propagate from seed then graft onto the seedlings, that way we have all genetically identical copies. One thing you could do if you really like the tree is to collect its cones, plant the seeds(after stratification) wait until they’re pencil diameter then take cuttings from the tree, there are many ways to do it and some pines graft better when you use the candles, but one thing is for certain, it will not root without an apiary branch, auxin is produced in the tips which send the signal for rooting, among other things. Another thing is it has to be done in winter a couple months before the last frost, sometimes you have to store cuttings in the fridge for many months before attempting propagation. Pines are a pain in the backside, but it sure is rewarding when they take

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Thank you so much for this reply💚 I had great success from pine cone seedlings. The propagating from cuttings I attempted 3 different times of the year and only got one hopeful that ended up dying, because I got so excited and messed with it too much (smothered it with “love” 😂) - they are so touchy. I will be sure to try grafting next time. I love trying to propagate different types of plants, with alternate methods. Blessings 🌲

[@daver9643]

About how long will it take for these branches to root? Also, would this work if you took a thick branch cutting like maybe for a bonsai, maybe something with the circumference of a money quarter or bigger?

[@barbaramerk2281]

These branches never rooted, that's why there is no update. Pines can't be rooted this way, you have to grow them from seed (which is quick and easy). But you could try it with other conifers suitable for bonsai like cryptomeria (Japanese cedar) or cypress. Maybe even juniper. But not pine. Don't waste your time.

[@taitjones6310]

Pines are not known to root from cuttings. Let us know if you have any success with this. Gardening is a lot of trial and error. But you don't know until you try.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Tait Jones there are a lot of different opinions out there regarding rooting conifers from cuttings. I’ve heard it is difficult but not impossible so I will keep trying until I have success. U are so right - becoming a good gardener is all about trial and error. I will update as soon as I have something to share. Thank u for commenting 💚

[@ThePerson1959]

Very well explained. Thank you. I was thinking of trying to do this.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

ThePerson1959 thank u so much! I actually tried a few branches in February when I started seeing the tips with a bit of new growth on the tips. (I wouldn’t wait too much longer into spring if u want to try it now because the energy of the tree will go towards making new growth to the branches vs rooting). The branches I harvested are about 10” long - I stripped about 7” of needles and left 3” to the tip. I still scratched the stem a bit before putting it in root tone. They are doing good! I will film an update video around July to see how everyone is doing. I also incorporated a bit more exposure to sunlight (still covered with plastic). Not full direct sunlight but more than in the video. Here’s to hoping for success 🌲. My pine seedlings are doing awesome - and a lot easier to yield new trees kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZaceYearJWonM0

[@jorgecanales798]

I know it's an old video but, did you have any success?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

i only had one root, i messed with it and then it died.That little root system gives me hope; however it has been extremely difficult thus far. My propagation from pine cone seeds video has done remarkably well. I have 8 trees that are almost 3 ft tall.

[@JANEEDISTURBED]

I have a cutting from a beautiful Weeping Pine. And I just so happened to get a cutting that produced a very small cone on one of the branches! They're currently in water atm too! So what do I do next? I didn't use any rooting powder yet. And I want this one to take. Do I instead use the tiny cone it produced, or do I leave that on it and continue to just place it in a soil mixture to root?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I would remove the little pine cone, because it could pull energy away from trying to root and give it to growing the pine cone (is the pine cone full size - If it’sfull size save the seeds - it’s way easier than via cuttings). Root tone always helps, so be sure to get the cutting in whatever soil medium you are using asap. I try and get my cuttings in soil within an hour of cutting (once cut they first go right into water). I hope you have great success 🌲

[@user-bp7lz8ld2m]

I don’t know if pine trees are like cannabis but, I don’t think you should have more than one cutting per pot… is this correct?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

During the propagation process, it does not hurt to have a few cuttings in the same pot, even cannabis lol. The propagation process takes months to take, so I put them together to see if they would actually take. Once they are established you need to separate any propagation, because you don’t want them to tangle. I have not had success as of yet with the Pines Propagating. Only once, one got a small set of roots, but I ended up messing with it and killed it. Since that time I have not had any success. It is very difficult. I do, however, have great success Propagating Pines from Seeds. Thank you for your comment and for watching💚

[@daki-dalai]

Hi, thanks for the video. Did it work? I wanna try if it worked.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

About 4 months ago I did a short update video showing a pine cutting that wasn't from the first batch - the first batch died from fungus gnats and mold, second batch same thing, but this cutting was taken around this time of year and is hanging in there. I don't want to touch it because every time I mess with it too much by removing the plastic they fail. So far so good - let's hope for the best. The failed first two batches I think were from too much water - thus the fungus gnats and mold. Here is a link to that update: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaGzqYdrl5t6fNk Blessings

[@jeffreywitherell532]

How did your cuttings work? Did they root ?

[@NMcCauley]

When is the best time to do this ? Spring, summer or fall ?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I’d start them in the fall.

[@samham5281]

How are they looking 4 years later?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I only had one that rooted slightly and unfortunately when I messed with it it died. My pine tree that I propagated from seeds (see video) is doing great, it’s about 4’ tall and I’m getting ready to plant it in it’s permanent home. Seed propagation of pines is the way to go for sure💚 Blessings to you!

[@aux1z11]

Thanks for the vid, can you do this in the fall and leave them in a out building with no heat or do they need heat ?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

aux1z11 you are so welcome! I’m not sure your zone, but I would not let them freeze if your temps go to freezing - also they do need a bit of natural light so I think they might not take in a dark out building - unless it has a window that gets a good amount of sun. I hope this helps💚 blessings.

[@glensworld2542]

Hello Ann, I appreciate you sharing this information. How did the cuttings do, and was there a follow-up video?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I will do another follow up soon. I do have a few short updates. I only had one root (spring setting, new growth) but it died super easily - could have been because I messed with it too much😂 I plan on trying again in spring. The best propagating that I have had success with has been through harvesting seeds from pine cones (virtually 100% successful) and planting them. I have a video showing how if you’d like to watch it. Thanks for watching💚

[@DmanDanstube]

Did it work? I'm looking at adding about 100 or more to my property. And at 5 bucks a bare root sapling that adds up quickly. Or if anyone knows where I can order some evergreens for cheap I'm all in

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I would highly suggest you propagate from seeds. The cutting experiment only had one cutting take root. My pine seeds all took and i have 8 pine trees now that are almost 3 ft tall - follow up video coming soon. Blessings to you!

[@SeiferTV]

Did any of these take? I'd be surprised if they did, pines are kind of iffy about growing from cuttings, as far as I know.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

SeiferTV it has been a battle - the fungus gnats got the first & second batch. I have one currently that looks hopeful. I basically have kept it covered and very little water. As soon as I am sure I will post it. They are tough to propagate and there is so much mixed info out there. Even in Fine Gardening they say it can be done! So i will keep trying lol.

[@SeiferTV]

@@OrganicallyAnn I've been looking for more info, after seeing this vid and it seems like it can be done with aeroponics or something like that. There's a ... thing? called EZclone that kind of streamlines the process and it looks promissing

I definitely know that seeds work so far. I’m going to take a short video of my little cutting so you can see it and post it today - I’m not going to mess with checking if it has roots yet - I don’t want to ruin anything lol - It’s about 3 months old.

[@shirinshahabadi7752]

I tried this for the first time after my neighbor decided to copy a gorgeous and massive pine tree. I wanted to save it and help make more trees. I kept it covered with plastic the whole time and after some time noticed they started to turn brown. I had also left it under a lot of sun. I'm so sad and heartbroken as I feel the browning isn't a good sign. What did I do wrong? Is there a chance to save them? I have taken the plastic off now. They sit in a conservatory and we have had hot weather in the UK. P.s two cuttings are still green but have brown tips. Please help :(

[@manlymannysmanymediocremem7026]

don't put it under direct sunlight, it will heat up and cook your cuttings

[@stevebabiak6997]

Brown evergreen branches are a sign of a dead branch. If you have seen cut greens that are made into Christmas wreaths, they are still green even though they are effectively dead. Once they turn brown, they are most certainly dead.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

It has been one of the toughest propagations for me💔 failure after failure. I had one start to take and I messed with it to see the roots and i killed it😩 I will try again soon, I’ve just had too many life changes to try it again, but will soon💚

[@corysummers3008]

@ Organically Ann, was this successful? I've heard pines are hard to clone. I currently have blue spruce in pots, so was just wondering.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Cory Summers I don’t know yet. I Propagated them about 2 months ago. Some of the pine needles from the newer growth cuttings have remained green which I think is a good sign. I just did a garden tour video posted yesterday 12/17 and showed a peak at those clones. I don’t want to disturb them too much because I heard it can take up to a year to successfully root. I definitely know from Propagating other trees that it is best to not disturb them - aside from watering them for at least 6 months. I have had success with pine seeds though - video coming this week. Thanks for the question - blessings

[@Gvtteddybear]

How do I prevent my propagation from drying out? The needles are looking like they might fall off in a few weeks. I didn't use rooting hormone but I am keeping the bottoms moist in my moss terrarium jar

[@ADVNevada]

I have tried pine cuttings many times and I have never been successful.

[@Neyobe]

It’s very important to use root hormone. I’ve tried to stick a cutting of MANY plants in water growing up, and trust me, 0% of them were successful unless I used hormones for the roots.

[@happity]

@@Neyobe trees? Easy to root small plants like vines just in water.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

It has been the toughest propagation - I had one take after several failures, I messed with it and killed it. I am going to try a #16 rooting hormone - it’s better for difficult tree propagations. Here’s to hoping.

[@larrybaker359]

Whats the soil medium you plant the cuttings in?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I use peat moss, vermiculite and a product called 1st Saturday Lime. It helps combat the mold and fungus gnats - which kill these cuttings so fast.

[@willmackay]

How often do you water them? 😎🌲🤙🏼

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Will Mackay u don’t want the soil get dry, but you also don’t want it soggy either, so depending how quickly they dry out where u are will determine it. My first batch i over watered and they all rotted. With them covered it holds the moisture a bit longer - for me - I usually only water once a week - but i always check. Thanks for the question.

[@GodsGreatOutdoors]

I'll be following along to see how this goes! Question - do you just leave outside and let them slowly warm up or do you take inside during the night time? It is still in the 40s here (Indiana) right now so I'm wondering about the protocol of if it's ok to leave them outside when it's chilly like that. Also, do you mist them at all throughout the week or does the water inside the plastic just stay put and continue it's process?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

So I leave them out night and day. I make sure to have them in a filtered light area - not too much sun, not too little shade. I keep them as covered as I can, because every time that i mess with the cover too much they die. I also don't over water. Those darn fungus gnats are opportunists and love to set up shop with the cuttings. Blessings - I hope this helped.

Eshan raj thank u for subscribing I greatly appreciate it. i did an update in my 2018 garden Tour at the end of December. I have a new one coming featuring my repurposed green house but it’s not quite done - next week it will be up. It takes about a year for the roots to take. Blessings my friend

Any update

How many takes time to grow by Cutting..??

[@OrganicallyAnn]

It can take up to a year to root.

What happened to puppy's eye?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Suzy the Cockatoo she got scratched by my cat. Here is a video I did about it. It happened so fast. Thank you for the comment. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJ-lYYF4j52Dd6M

[@getoutofyourmomsbasement]

Update? Did they root, how did it turn out 1 year later???

[@OrganicallyAnn]

The first batch died from fungus gnats and mold, second batch same thing, but I did an update 4 months ago from a cutting that was taken around this time of year and is hanging in there. I don't want to touch it because every time I mess with it too much by removing the plastic they fail. So far so good - let's hope for the best. The failed first two batches I think were from too much water - thus the fungus gnats and mold. Here is a link to that update: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaGzqYdrl5t6fNk Thank you for the comment - Blessings

[@getoutofyourmomsbasement]

@@OrganicallyAnn thank you for the reply! I seem to get fungus growing as well and have been lighter on the water than I thought would be necessary but it still seems to be too much! Such a delicate balance there. Have a great day!

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Tech Dan you are so right - they are extremely delicate. Let’s keep trying - we’ll get it sooner or later💚

It’s been 2 yrs - get some healthy pines?

What happened to the puppy's right eye?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

She got it scratched by our cat - I have a video up where I tell about it. It was so sad, but they actually get along now. Nothing takes Kali’s joy - she just gives more love - she is such a special dog. Thank you for asking💚

[@akramabuf9224]

When the suitable time to propagating?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Akram Abuf well I have tried 3 different times. First batch was winter, second batch i did around mid spring and third batch was in like November(mid fall) - thus far November has worked best. Thank you for the comment 💚

Can you cut a pine tree down and start one the way with out digging up from the hard wood

[@rosshopkins2063]

No thats usually only pitch pines.

[@HearturMind]

Did it work? I am about to try this with our beloved white pines. They are starting to come down with storms and are thirty years old so we thought it would be good to get some babies in around them and do a new edge with them where our other trees there are looking like they are on their way OUT. Thanks! Love your pups and your hunky Popeye!

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Peace Hunter so far I have one that looks promising, I did an update with it around 4 months ago. They are super sensitive if over watered or uncovered too much. It’s best to keep them in a place where they can be undisturbed for as long as it takes - can even take a year to root. Over watering makes them mold and fungus gnats love to invade. The cuttings that have a bit of semi hard wood and new growth do best - it needs some of the pine needles. Also, very filtered light - too much sun and too hot kill them quicker than u can say, “Bob’s your uncle.” I hope you are successful to preserve that wonderful old tree💚 Thank you for watching - I appreciate you!

[@HearturMind]

So what do you suggest for a warm place that is semi sunny? Would a garage get too hot? Do you think a clear bin with a clear lid would work? Wouldn’t that cut down on the mold by letting light into the container even toward the bottom? Would a towel at the bottom that can be wetted when it starts to dry out help? Or filling only bottom with straws or a cut off hose so no water touches the stems? One last question-the one that is working, how long is it? I get that it should have pine needles. Thank you so much!!! Strength in numbers...I will try a large quantity.

[@adriandizon8135]

What kind of pine tree is that?

[@3hotznacot856]

Excuse me for asking this but will planting these branches reproduce full term pine trees

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I am hoping they will - that is what experts say. Thank you so much for your question.

[@jt8847]

So, did they grow roots? It's been almost a year. Any update?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

JT the first batch failed to fungus gnats. We had a really cold and wet winter this year and they got too wet and would not dry out enough. I tried again in April and I have one little branch that has managed to stay green so I am hopeful. I am working on an update video to show everyone what has taken this year and what is on the struggle bus. The video I did with the pine seeds was successful. I have a bunch of baby pine trees😄 I will try to get the update done this week or next. Thank you for your comment and patience - it means a lot💚

[@jt8847]

@@OrganicallyAnn Can you send me the link to your video of the pine seeds? I actually have a few pine seeds and do not know how to plant them. I'm not sure if I need to stratify them still or just go ahead and plant them. I got my seeds from South Korea. Could you tell me which way to go? I actually have 3 of my seeds soaking in water right now. I plan to put them in the soil tomorrow.

[@OrganicallyAnn]

JT sure💚 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZaceYearJWonM0

[@OrganicallyAnn]

JT that’s perfect - soaking it is what do too. The video will show you how I do it. Almost every one of the seeds I planted have taken 🌲 Blessings

Can we do this on mugo pines?

[@moihawk666]

im so confused.... you used hard wood and soft wood? did it work? ugh.... no help its not stimulating... its the fact that the cells can reproduce and extend.... i mean i appreciate this video this is the first one i looked at. and of course, root grow stuff but what about all organic? this video could have been 15 seconds long... cut, dip and push.....

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Moises Duarte thank u for your comment. I’m sorry if I confused u, In my video I tried hard wood and soft wood to see if either would take - other gardeners claim that eventually i will have one root, so I had to try. I have had good success with propagating other plants and trees so I am determined to try try again till it takes. Thus far I haven’t had success yet, but I do have a few now that have been hanging in there. My first batch I let get too moist so they rotted, second batch fungus gnats killed. This current batch is about 3 months old and looks promising - I used a more sandy soil and only lightly water it from the bottom in the dish under my pot. As soon as I have one that takes I will update everyone - they can take a while to root so please be patient. Blessings💚

[@nathanrobinson7042]

Is this about dogs or trees? Do you think that alcohol that wasn’t rinsed off those clippers prior to making them first few cuts burned the cell walls? It’s only 91% alcohol so It prob didn’t burn that bad. Smh

[@OrganicallyAnn]

Nathan Robinson both 😂 trees mostly, but the pups represent the “Organic” side of Organically Ann - they’re my helpers. I’m not too worried about the alcohol... though next time I’ll wipe em down after dipping... just in case. Thanks for the comment.

[@Jon_Villanueva]

When is the best time to do this?

[@OrganicallyAnn]

I’m still testing the best time. This video was done in mid fall, I’ve test late summer, and so far that one has lasted the longest. Each expert that I’ve researched has a slightly different answer. Some say fall, others say any time. So i will just keep trying year round till i have bonafide success 🌲 Hope that helps. Thank you for the comment 💚
