Here are some more secrets and garden tips to rooting petunia cuttings. We're going to root these petunia cuttings in the hoop house with peat moss this time because I get a lot of people telling me they can't find fir bark. I'll show you exactly how moist to make your peat moss for best results, show you what propagation tray I'm using and where to get it, and give you more garden tips for propagating petunias and growing them successfully.

Hi Mike, you did a great job with the petunias. Mine were doing great in my coldframe and they were doing great until we had a frost that was not forecast and it went down to -15c. The result was a total loss!! Going to try again this year as I have a new batch of petunias. Grew these from seed that was given to me so no cost.!!. The compost here in the UK Mike is 99% peat free so I will see how it goes. All the best Graham🇬🇧🇬🇧🌺🌺

Hi Mike, I’ve been propagating plants a couple of years now after watching your videos and loving it. But now I am totally baffled at what happened. I had 2 petunia “mother” plants , 1 pink and 1 lilac color. Propagated the same amount of each from cuttings and this spring planted them in ground and in containers. The buds were’t open yet but I had labeled everything so now as the buds are finally opening they are all blooming PINK! WTH? I thought they would be clones of the original plant. What would cause this color change? I thought maybe I mislabeled but I have yet to see any lilac blooms anywhere. I’m so confused and a bit disappointed. I was landscaping based on color but now it seems I will only have a pink pallet this year🤷‍♀️ I guess it could be worse. Ps. I added chicken manure when planting to most. Would that cause it?

I'd love to winter over some petunia's but live in Maine and our wintering over grow room stays between 50 and 60 degrees. Would/should we use a heat mat? It seems like with a routine of take cuttings, grow, trim back, grow and so on should work. We're talking indoor survival of 8ish months. With nursery plants we're talking $50 for 3 hanging pots. FREE unlimited plants your way. We've got pockets FULL of FREE. (being retired) TY Subscribed Great video Mark n Rosa

@MikeKincaid79 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for subscribing and I'm glad you enjoy the videos. 50 to 60 degrees is more than warm enough to overwinter petunias. I had a petunia hanging basket in my hoop house last winter and assumed it would die, but it sprang back from the dead last spring. It freezes hard as a rock in there. Petunias are fairly resilient. Good luck and have fun! You never know, you may be selling some of those $50 baskets one of these years.

Yes, they'll bloom multiple times in one season if you continue to prune back. 5 degrees at night isn't the worst thing as long as the day temps are getting up there a little more. Growth will be slower until later in summer.

Awesome! I'm gonna try some tomorrow on my petunias! I'll definitely feel bad about snipping them all back when they have so many blooms but also then they'll have more blooms so... I hope it works! Also could you give me a few suggestions on fig varieties that are either really sweet or really big? I'm trying to make a list of varieties since I have over 40 clones of the same tree😂

LOl, 40 of the same tree! You must like that one. I'm only a few years into this so I don't know if I'm the right person to ask. I've got a lot of experience propagating and growing figs now but haven't really tasted them all yet at their best. So far, I really like the Black mission fig. My Italian 258 is pretty sweet too.

@@MikeKincaid79 yeah.😂 I like it. It produces a too of figs but it's also huge. It's over 20 feet tall and twice as wide. But mainly because it's the only variety I currently have. Ok thank you! I'm hoping to order a bunch of cuttings of different varieties this winter

I cut my petunia and stuck all the cuttings in Sphagnum moss outside in a pot. I put mint cutting in there too. The pot only was 1/3rd filled with the moss. Everything I put in there rooted and is gorgeous. The roots attached to the inside of the pot. I’m not even going to put them in dirt because they lived all summer like that and are doing so well.

Hey, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Sounds like you've got it figured out.

They seem really leggy. They get fuller when snipped? Would love to see the time lapse of these particular cuttings.💕 thank you!

@MikeKincaid79 3 жыл бұрын

They do get leggy. I've got lots of videos about these petunias and growing them indoors through the winter, and finally bringing them out and creating a hanging basket.

Have you ever harvested the seeds from the petunias at the end of the season and use those to grow new plants

@MikeKincaid79 4 жыл бұрын

No, I wouldn't want to deal with the seeds but I know a lot of people are really into it.

Great video!! Just wondering if peat moss is your go to choice for petunia cuttings instead of sand? Or is this video a demonstration of an alternative for a rooting medium?

@MikeKincaid79 3 жыл бұрын

Yep, just a demonstration. I have many videos about propagating plants in different mediums. Petunias do well in peat though.

Can you share the link for this propagating tote? I can't find the one like you have. Thank you!

I've had it over 10 years and don't even know if they sell it anymore but I originally got it at walmart.

Did you get them in a hanging basket? Great video!!!

I bought them individually, but I do have some videos about hanging baskets of petunias if you're interested. Glad you enjoyed the video!

Well, "magic Mike", I took cuttings from my petunia today July 2, 2020. Put them in a seedling tray with the clear dome over it. It is in the plant room where the lights are on for at least 12 hours. Horizontal space is scarce so if i put a towel over the top of the dome to block out direct light, would that be ok? I wrote August 15 on the calendar to check up on these guys.

@MikeKincaid79 4 жыл бұрын

A towel sounds like it may work but don't cover too much light.

I'm hearing an overwhelming swing toward hanging baskets.
