Why am I Getting Mold on My Plant Cuttings | Why are They Rotting in My Propagation Frame

[@randrand8003]

Finally, someone answered the million dollar question about mold. This was so helpful. I watched so many videos, none were as informative as this. Not one of the other videos addressed the "how to avoid mold" question.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Glad it was helpful!

[@donaldkasper8346]

Mulch is rotted wood. That is where the mold usually comes from. Container covers keeping the leaves constantly wet introduces mold. Pot bottoms soaking in water introduces mold.

[@sle28]

I wish I had watched this video before I began trying to propagate cuttings. Would've saved me so much stress and heartache. Thank you! I love that you covered the part about heat/sunlight too. For anyone reading this comment, check out his video on cutting propagation mediums and his video on using sand to propagate cuttings. SO helpful!

[@MikeKincaid79]

Thanks, Sara, really glad the videos have been helpful. Have fun in the garden this summer!

Same. It happens almost every time.

[@roxanneturpin620]

"The more you make 'em work for it..." is my exact philosophy. I always say, if it needs to be pampered, it's not for me. Give me a plant that I can neglect and I'm happy! Thanks Mike, for all you do for us! You are good.

Thanks so much for your support, Roxanne!

[@rphjacobs9197]

I have watched over a dozen videos on rooting cuttings and your videos are BY FAR the absolute BEST!! You address the problems we will face instead of a generic “how to”. Thanks!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@MikeKincaid79]

And show you the results, months later! Glad you're enjoying the videos.

[@DJDOUBLE077]

Couldn't be more right...letting them work is the key to survival. Watching your videos is so helpful and your passion is motivating. Thank you for all your insight...definitely shortening the learning curve.

Mold is my nemesis. I'll try to see if 1 or all of the reasons here are the causes. Thanks for the info, Mike.

[@jazzcanada2001]

.Thanks Mike! Now I get it.......why all my Rose Bouquet cuttings didn't make it! Molds, fungus....I guess I over watered plus the very fact that the bin was always closed with probably heat from the sun even though it was shaded......great tips Mike.....will try again.......

[@natureishappiness8742]

Very well explained. Too much water is extremely dangerous. Just little bit moisture is enough.

[@bijismythe551]

Ok, I thought you were being dramatic at first and wordy but you got me, you explained everything very well. Note to self: trust the process

Glad you gave me a chance. I'm here to help!

[@f.demascio1857]

I am so grateful I found your channel today. I'm new to this, but charging forward with a ton of cuttings I made recently. Now I'm hustling to get them out of the honey/water I've had them in for the past 3 days. Moving into sand, 2 cup method, in totes. I just processed 96 cuttings into sand. Probably have another 300 - 400 to go. Getting them into sand now.

You ain't messing around! Go! Go! Go!

[@necymamaril3735]

This is so helpful for me because, I live in So.California which is hot and dry, and I have killed my plants by overwatering! I am just beginning to regain confidence in planting again because of instructional videos like yours . I love to have my hydrangeas back, clematis, azaleas, and the like. Thank you so much for everything.

[@MikeKincaid79]

You're welcome, Necy! Glad you're enjoying the videos.

Thanks dude! Just tried about 6 different cuttings of roses because of you!

[@bhargavi368]

Mike !!!! U are a eye opener when it comes to propagation Thank u soo soo much for sharing these with us I never got a crystal clear answer until I started to saw your vedios Now my cutting is there for one week and rest 3 weeks I'll follow ur 3 rules as I was skeptical about air circulation and how to give them and now u gave me that answer If my cutting is successful it's only because of ur teaching thank u once again!!!!!

[@MikeKincaid79]

Glad you’re having fun with this. I wish much success for you.

[@Sunshine-tf4ul]

Thanks Mike! Still struggling with these cuttings. 😪 No such luck yet... I tried the sand and Dansinol but I think it had too much heat under the dome, I should have cracked the lid open and given it some air like you said. And too much water 😓 right now in Hawaii, it's been really hot 🔥 too, I'm thinking the temperature may be too hot.??? Idk...But I'll keep trying, learning a lot through this whole process. Lol, looks really easy on KZbin videos but dang, this rooting process is mind boggling. I started 🙏praying to God to help my plants root and survive!🤣🤣🤣 but ty for all your help! I'll keep trying!😁💪🤙🌈🌟

[@MikeKincaid79]

Yes, heat is definitely a killer. Keep them in shade and out of any direct sun. Once you start having success, you'll be rooting all kinds of things.

[@chikalee517]

It was helpful. I made a perlite prop box for the first time and plants are not happy. Nothing rooting. I am guilty of all three counts. Too much water. Heat. No airflow! I’ll see if I can make it happy again.

[@teresaacuff8217]

Finally after several attempts I managed to get three out of 5 petunia cuttings to root. I added sand to my potting soil, very lightly watered. Then I put the pot with the cuttings in it inside a gallon size ziplock bag and set it on a window sill of a south facing window. It took a couple weeks but it worked. Working on some climbing rose and arborvitae cuttings now. Thanks for all your guidance!

Thanks Neil

[@acts.412]

Thank you for this video ! I'm currently in the middle of my first clear box propagation project. I only water at the beginning before putting my cuttings in the box and just rely on humidity to keep them moist. Every now and then i'll mist spray like you said :)

[@glencooke5659]

Hi Glen, here is it why my soil is going white, my first time, thanks, love your videos great

[@GMAMEC]

OK I it’s confirmed , my neighbors and family don’t have to worry about me checking on my plants, especially new cuttings,🌱 throughout the day (every 1-4 hours). Glad to hear you’re diligent too, if time permits, about checking on you plants when they need a little more help to survive.

[@amourdeparis]

I have successfully propagated roses, hydrangeas, and rhododendrons here in the PNW. I say, forget the propagation frame and initially leave the planted cuttings in a shady location. There's plenty of humidity in the PNW. I gradually introduce the cuttings to AM sunlight from the east as the stems develop.

Hi Mike, thank you for all the great information. Hope you are mending well. You reminded me of a joke: A little five year old boy never uttered a word. His parents worried about him until one day, he said, "Mom, this cocoa is cold"....his overjoyed mother said, "OMG, you can talk! Why are you talking now?" The little boy said, "Well, up until now, everything was great"

[@MikeKincaid79]

haha

[@monkeygraborange]

When dealing with cuttings, _always_ water from the bottom. A quarter inch in the pot tray once a week is a good rule of thumb. The roots reach *down* towards the water, not up.

[@MikeKincaid79]

Good advice

Used either honey or root hormone. Used clean sheers each cut. I’ve looked for days at what happened. FINALLY I think I’ve figured out what happened. Too much water. Thank you.

[@bobbrawley2612]

I got to be told 20 times about this over watering thing. You have a video where you showed a sorta clear plastic tote . Lid too. And the condensation on the lid was way more than I have achieved using the fist squeeze soil moisture standard. And in that video you emphasized little water yet those condensation droplets were huge ( size of a nickel) so I followed what I saw and not what I was told This spring starting in March I made a compost like with crushed deciduous leaves for the brown and a lot of some sort of ornamental conifer trimmings. Soft terminal ends ( last 6 to 8 inches ) the green conifer trimmings I put on the bottom, of the bottom of the pile. And by the 1st of July as I was aerating the pile . The bottom of the pile was a mass of matted white roots. So much profusion of roots that I could not identify any of the original trimmings . Which was the very tip and more important which or where was the cut end of the branch Now for the conclusion . This root mass at the bottom of the pile . Which had grown within the pulverized leaves was dry . Apparently never recieving rainwater moisture or very little and only ground moisture percolation or vaporized from the ground. . A guess would be 10% moisture but appearing and by feel mostly dry

I'm from Phoenix originally and there were times during the summer that no one would go outside so I completely understand.

Started 4 lemon tree cuttings 2 weeks ago. Everything seemed to be going ok, they were green and good. Little did I know I was overwatering them, then to make things worse I stupidly decided to totally enclose them with plastic cups limiting the airflow. I even left them on a radiator one night. 3/3 mistakes made, dear lord, I completed the mistake set to absolute perfection! They are all covered in mould now and three of them are brown. I guess they're all dead as a Dodo. Oh well, tomorrow I will start again with a new batch and take more care this time. Thanks for this 101!

I used natural very high quality unfiltered local honey from a neighbour (I'm in Greece) and mixed it with cinnamon in lieu of rooting hormone, I have fantastic lemon and orange trees which are at least 20 years old and were carefully grafted by my late grandfather - I took the top/newer foliage as cuttings as I've read is the right thing to do - I want to clone them for another property down the road. What's your view on my rooting mix vs "root hormone" powders etc? Am I better of procuring rooting hormone powder?

[@giselau5606]

I think if you remove all the bark and green material below for 1-2 inches you can propagate semi-hardwood really easily in water. The inner part of the stem is constantly watersoaked anyway, that’s it’s job, so it won’t rot. It’s the roots that can rot. Therefore, before roots have developed, „sharpen“ your stem + half it or even quarter the stem to give the stem ways to build roots, dip it in rooting gel, and stand it in water. I have seen cuttings develop roots in 5 hours, it was like witchcraft, had a full bundle of 1 inch long roots (olive)

The farther into summer we get, the longer it takes cuttings to root because the wood begins to mature and eventually harden off.

Why do some people say you need to tent cuttings for humidity? It is 'the greenhouse effect' .Doesn't humidity promote too much moisture?

[@MikeKincaid79]

It all depends on the plant, type of cuttings, time of year, position of the propagation frame or tote in regard to sun, etc.
