Cinnamon as Rooting Hormone - Will it propagate cuttings faster?

Рет қаралды 98,138

4 жыл бұрын

Is cinnamon a good rooting hormone / rooting agent? In this video I clone tomato plants and test to see if cinnamon can help plants grow roots faster. I try multiple propagation techniques to learn what yields the fastest root growth.
If you’ve ever wanted to grow tomatoes from cuttings, clone cannabis, or create a mother plant- don’t miss out on this great garden tip. Learn how to use cinnamon as rooting hormone!
Cinnamon contains anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties which will help you propagate your plants quicker.
In this video I will be growing tomato plants from cuttings, but these same techniques can be used for roses, cannabis and plants of all kinds!

Thanks Marvin I agree! I’ve seen a lot of diy rooting hormone videos that say things work but never actually show a full experiment proving it, which is why I wanted to test these things myself. I just released a bunch of videos on this very topic, testing a variety of possible rooting agents, and was surprised to see half of what the internet claims would help a plant propagate, actually hurt my cuttings and slowed root growth. Be careful what you believe 😆 thanks for the support!

While your vietnamese cinnamon may work well for rooting cuttings, Vietnamese Cinnamon is not actually from the real cinnamon tree . True cinnamon is Ceylon soft bark cinnamon (also known as Cinnamomum verum), which is made from the actual bark of a tree native to the islands of Sri Lanka, near the southern tip of India. Ceylon cinnamon has been lauded for its ability to stabilize blood sugar as well as its perceived sweetness.A plant called cassia (Cinnamomum cassia), by contrast, is native to southern China and spans a much larger territory, making it more readily available-and way cheaper. All cinnamons have some amount of a natural compound called coumarin, which imparts flavor, but the amount found in cassia is considerably higher than that in Ceylon-and can even be toxic. Though cassia is considered safe in small amounts (up to 1 teaspoon per day), eating too much could be harmful because coumarin has carcinogenic and liver-damaging properties. .

Interesting. I've been rooting in water a long time but I may try the cinnamon bc it inhibits fungus. Another story. A few wks ago I chopped my small Pilea's off their stem, they were getting very leggy. I applied cinnamon to the open wound, used a pencil to create a hole in my fresh-soil pot and inserted. No wilt whatsoever and, 3 wks later these plants are huge and very happy! One big caveat. My home is very dry so I started using a humidifier every day, 12 hrs/day. Humidity went fm 37% to 50ish every day. I am very sure this had a lot to do with the health of these plants but didn't set up a control to prove it out.

another neat thing i have heard of is that you can take a cut, wrap the cut end in wet paper towel, then a ziplock bag. put that in the fridge for over a month. then you can root it when convenient .the trick is to keep it moist so you may have to spray it water in the fridge once in a while. this is for cannabis but i'm sure it will work for other plants.

They all grew roots. That’s why I find all the alleged rooting aids hard to evaluate. Cuttings of many plants, including tomatoes, can be rooted by just sticking them in the ground, or putting them in water. So if you get roots using cinnamon or honey or willow tea or aloe vera or something else, you don’t really know if the roots are from the extra ingredients, or just the roots you’d get anyway. To really find out would require very extensive, controlled trials- something I’m not prepared or equipped to do.

Some cinnamon will flake off into the water but most of it will stay on the stems. I didn’t add anything extra to the water

Is it cinnamon & water ? Or just cinnamon

Dip in cinnamon, then put it all in water.

Water control??

@JimmyBHarvests 5 ай бұрын

A control is a sort of 'do nothing' scenario used as a comparison. In this case i was comparing water + cinnamon to just water

What about Jelly Belly Cinnamon or Sizzling Cinnamon Jelly beans, as they are made with real Cinnamon?

It is my understanding that tomato plants will root in water without any help? Is this wrong? I wish he would do this with a tree clipping or some other plant that does not propagate at all without help. It appears if you use cinnamon on a plant that will not propagate alone, using cinnamon will not do anything. However for testing water v cinnamon alone it was a very good video.
