I take hardwood cuttings in the spring as soon as the leaf buds swell. I usually take about three nodes per cuttings and shove em deep in the soil or in a big pot with a bread bag over top. Then by fall they are more then established. I also do green cuttings they root very well in pots with bread bags over top. Or a good humidity tent would work. I use indirect light for green cuttings and i usually put them next to a wall or on the concrete in pots to get the bottom to heat up faster. But with harwood sort of almost awake cuttings in spring they can be in full sun as long as you give them adequate water. I dont use rooting horomone for either and i find with green cuttings there is a higher succes rate but it requires a lil more care as for the spring cuttings they are so mucb easier and i usually have around 80% or more succes. Anyways thanks for the info i love watching vids on propogation.

Thank you for this video as there were no other videos I could find with propagating green grapevine cuttings. I need to propagate my seeded Concord, Niagara, Catawba, & Muscadine grapevines for more plants in addition to giving some to my neighbors so that they will have their own. Instead of me performing all the work & running up my light & water bill while they come & harvest them. Shalom!

Thanks for the propagation ideas. I have tons of vines all along my wall now. Thanks!

One of the reasons I'm interested is because the previous owner of our place planted two grape vines that produce vigorous vegetative growth every spring, but they make no fruit because he put them in spot where they just don't get enough sun. So the good news is, there's a lot of material there for cuttings. Hopefully by taking green cuttings I'll be able to place them in a better spot and actually get fruit out of those plants.

Thank you cause that was my first thought when I watched another video about pruning..

Wow excellent.

One thing I've discovered from experience with cuttings: just go for it. If it's stemmy, goes from soft to hardwood, etc. Just do a bunch of cuttings, stick them in some dirt and see what happens. 😂 Then if it doesn't work go look and see if there is anything on it I just did some cuttings of wild muscadine vines and a grape vine a few weeks ago. They're looking good. Didn't even lose their leaves. I'm gonna check in the morning and see if they have any roots.

And I took SWC this summer and stuck them in a bed of sand and put them under mist. They are doing great!

Wow! I am so excited I came across your video! I am going to experiment with this on my established vines I have. I just ordered seeds to grow from seed, but this method may also expedite growing more for the property! Thank you so much! -Lorelei

I mean, it's possible but you never know what you'll get and it will take a lot longer to get a vine and many years to find out if it's something useful. Starting from cuttings from a known variety is far better.

That's a great tradition. There is a seed savers exchange group called the flower exchange that shares flower bulbs, seeds, cuttings. There is also so much to be found in farm and city yards if you just ask the owner.

Years later and this vid is still helping people... thanks! I suspect that maybe the reason so much info about taking fruit plant cuttings is only about using dormant hardwood, is simply because orchards/vinyards happen to do a lot of pruning when the trees or plants are dormant. So at some point way back in the day people simply decided to save those trimmings and see if they'd root eventually. But now it seems a lot of people insist that's the ONLY way to do it... which doesn't make a lot of sense to me. In spring/early summer plants are usually bursting with growth hormones etc so... yeah. Using green cuttings just seems easier and faster.

@HardcoreSustainable

2 жыл бұрын

It can be easier and faster with some fruit types and some varieties. Usually green cuttings are more consistent than dormant cuttings with all grape varieties. The ideal time to prune grapes is in spring, just before the buds open. This is true of a lot of fruit trees as well. But the best time to take dormant cuttings is in the fall. You can prune anytime fruit trees are dormant, but pruning can trigger growth hormones in the plant, and that's better to happen just before the plant is about to grow than when it's trying to go dormant or in the middle of dormancy. There's also less chance of disease entering the plant if you prune closer to a time when the plant can grow and heal itself, which is in spring.

May I suggest, that when you trim your cuttings, cut the end, that you want to root, UNDER WATER. This is an old florist's trick to keep rose stems from forming an "air lock" in the stem end.

@HardcoreSustainable

4 жыл бұрын

Wow, thanks for the suggestion! That totally makes sense. I'd never heard of that. So if you do it out of water, the vascular tissues will draw air in and create problems? I wonder how far up the air can be drawn. So maybe if you had already taken cuttings, you'd cut a section off the bottom of each under water and then keep them submerged until you put them in the rooting medium?

I've got squeaky cutters like that too! But seriously, This isn't difficult at all. Vines root really, really easily and the best way is to lay a stretch of vine on the ground, cover several nodes with earth and cut free and pick up your new vine three months later. It's called ground layering.

Hi it;s agood idea to take cutting from the mother plant, at least you know what the grape is. I'm going to buy a Grape plant soon, then i will take cuttings, in the second season, yep buying from nursery's are expensive, thankyou.

I found using fabric pots works well for rooting grape cuttings.

One reason grape vines are expensive from the nursery is that they are grafted onto disease resistant root stock. Simply rooting the fruit variety will not be disease resistant. Cheaper but likely to get infected and die over time.

@HardcoreSustainable

4 жыл бұрын

Yes, it is true that you can get guaranteed disease free vines from a nursery and the grafted ones are more expensive because of the work involved in grafting them, and the fact that they will grow more vigorously if the rootstock is matched to the soil. Or the rootstock can slow the vigor of a vigorous variety. It might be worth it if you are planting a large commercial vineyard, but you can get a lot of green cuttings this way and treat them to be disease free on your own. You can also get your own rootstock, increase it this way, and then graft your own vines. That might not be worth the work, though. I find there is disease anyway that will find your vines and you just have to have strong healthy vines.

Nicely done. Clear instructions, easily understood, with results both good and bad. I'll be giving this experiment a go next season for Northern varieties. We are in upper Vermont, the Northeast Kingdom. Have you tried to winter cuttings once started in a green house to set roots further rather than the nursery Route? I wonder if less interruption of the growing process, ie: multiple transplants, might benefit the vines better.

@HardcoreSustainable

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, definitely less transplanting would help, and making sure that they have really good roots established when you transplant. I've done dormant cuttings before and they work good too, but they take longer to root from the time you take them since they have to be overwintered.

It does work, but you have to be careful about a lot of things, like keeping the cuttings from being too wet or too dry, making sure you have a good clean soil mix, and that you coddle them until they have good root systems and top growth before planting them out in a nursery row. Good luck with yours!

Thanks for the info on the rooting hormone compound.. I bought one of the cheap ones at Walmart and checked it and it had 0.1% IBA in it.. I did some math though and if anyone else like me buys one of these cheapo mixes that only has .1% IBA in it you can get the same strength mixture by increasing the amount per quart of water added. My particular container is 56 grams at .1% IBA so I need 2.5 tsp of powder to get to the strength of his 1/4 tsp in a quart jar. So my canister will make approximately 10 quarts of rooting hormone where his will make about 44 quarts from what I assume is a 25 mg package. So if you buy the cheap stuff just put in about ten times the amount of powder 2.5 tsp as compared 1/4 and you should do fine on the strength of the rooting hormone...

Any chance of seeing what the vines look like now please ?

But the ones you have look good. 👍🏼 And on East Coast it would be last year’s growth, not “this years growth”. Just saying. Great job.

These are green cuttings, which means this year's growth. Last year's growth would not be green cuttings, they would be dormant cuttings of last year's growth. There are tons of videos on dormant cuttings. The problem with them is that you have to wait until fall or early winter to take them and then wait all winter to plant them out. The entire point of this video is that it's about GREEN CUTTINGS. You take these in the middle of the season from THIS YEAR'S GROWTH and then root by the end of the season and are ready to plant out the following spring. So, this is different from what you are talking about.

With the cost of buying new grapevines, you could quickly save a fortune by using this method. You mentioned the price you paid was five dollars per vine, the vines I priced recently ( in 2022) we're twelve dollars each, so you can see, you could quickly save a great deal of money by rooting your cuttings.

@HardcoreSustainable

Жыл бұрын

Yep, depending on the variety, new vines can be much more expensive. Of course, this method doesn't work for grafted vines (though you could get a lot of rootstock going), which tend to be more expensive than own rooted vines.

Thankyou for this video! Question: does it make it any easier if you slightly scrape the bottoms of the cuttings before dipping them? It seems to me like that would allow the hormone to penetrate a bit better? Edit: Also! How long do you leave the cuttings in the bucket before transplanting then to their final spot? Do you wait until there’s a specific amount of growth, or until a specific time of year after starting them?

I've never seen that suggested for grape cuttings but it might help. The only problem might be in promoting rot because it would create more dead tissue to breed bacteria and that might interfere with the grape cutting forming callous tissue. Might be worth a shot though to test it.
