Thanks for watching my channel. I started my gardening channel based on my collection figs, at one point I had over 350 varieties in Seattle. Now I've expanded my channel to Bonsais and Kois as well.
In this video I show the method I used to root larger maples cuttings.

Yes you can grow maples from cuttings, and depending on the time of year is to how you do it, and maples are completely different then figs, you can’t compare the 2. First thing is to use course sand, it holds moisture and drains well as well as being sanitary , if you use dirt your introducing microbes and diseases and fungus immediately. If you use just plain perlite, it drains too fast and doesn’t hold the moisture long enough to keep them moist not wet. The cuttings you took wear you tore the leaves off, big mistake, you needed those leaves for photosynthesis. The moisture from the sand as well as the buds give the cuttings the nutrients it needs to make the cells to root out, while the leaves catch the energy from the light and send it down to the wound to help form roots. Also the cuttings steal the energy from the leaves to help survive. Japanese maples take longer to root out, so your best bet is to do hardwood cuttings early, bottom heat so it calluses up and then let them root out the rest of the year. And it’s really important you keep them in shade until fully rooted out, no sun period. Hopefully this will help you in the future. I do this for a living.

Doesn't Peter Chan say it's imperative to have "rooting trays" that allow optimum soil drainage to never allow complete saturation. Mold breeds in stagnation.

The popsicle stick is where your mold started . I've used them in the garden and every time I pull one out there's fluffy green or grey mold .

Growing from cuttings is definitely a powerful but tricky method to master! Definitely useful for anyone who wants to make bonsai forests, or for cloning the tree to make grafting supplies for new branches or for improving the nebari - not to mention just getting more trees for free!

I am going to try this method. So, I gotta goo out & buy a decent plastic shoebox , bag of perlite , a new spray mister (so I won't use my old ones that may have been contaminated with fungus potential), rooting hormone (this stuff can be sooo expensive). Plus, I think I will use a scalpel to get a real "fine cut" that is precision rather than typical snips that can cause microscopic crushing of the cutting at the cut end. Me thinks that is actually quite important is to keep from using snips that are DULL ... as in the medical arena, crushing tissue is one of the most problematic things during surgery. This is why everything is always sharp as could be to make an incision. Crushed cells at the periphery really screws up healing in human tissue, so we should be extrapolating that to nursery cuttings.

Out of all those cuttings, is that the only one that rooted?

I had a similar result with Acer palmatum (a couple varieties) when trying to root cuttings in sphagnum moss, although it seemed they dehydrated despite being in a "terrarium" to maintain high humidity. I had left 3 or 4 leaves on the tip of the cutting though, so perhaps removing those would have reduced moisture loss. I would have thought some leaf was necessary to move water through the stem, but your shoebox experiment would indicate that leaf transpiration is not essential.

I found that sometimes the JM cuttings can take many months to root. In December I potted winter cuttings in clear plastic yogurt pots. In March, two started leafing out, and by about June you could see the roots through the clear plastic. Never had luck with trident cuttings though.

Air layering works great for creating a new tree. Some variety work better than others. I have made a few bonsai from this method. The cuttings seem to root better for me, if I take the cutting during late fall. And usually start rooting in late spring.✌️😎

Regarding the ones that died, you put them into a bag, and then into a green house. I wouldn't think the bag would be needed if it's in a green house, just one or the other. I'm trying the bag method for the first time, so far so good. Leaves are not wilting, but I'm only one week into it at this point. And I used root promoter.
