- This video shows the process of How to Propagate Illinois Everbearing Mulberry trees using softwood cuttings and a mist irrigation system. The process involves taking cuttings during the summer, dipping the cutting in rooting hormone, and putting the cutting into a soil that drains very well. Then you mist the leaves every five to ten minutes during daylight hours. The Galcon programming video is located here: • How to Program the Gal...

Great video! It's been a few years now, but do you remember roughly what percentage of the cuttings rooted successfully? You noted that the other row of mulberries in the nursery bed weren't doing too well. I'd like to try this method instead of air layering the Illinois Everbearing.
Where the leaves appear are the nodes, the inter-nodes are the spaces between the nodes, good video overall, Thanks.
Thanks
Great tips, thank you for sharing!
The best mulberry propagation video out of many I watched. Very clear directions and good pictures. Well done! Thank you!
"Make sure you caution with this rooting hormone" SLASH! Love this guy. The new Super Dave.
You are welcome.
nice instructional video on cutting propagation. Question for you...you're planting these in August, how long do they sit in the sand till you replant in soil? Do they have enough room to establish a nice root system without tangling into the neighboring cuttings? Thanks :)
Thank you for the great questions Oneda! I had the same questions myself when I started out and I should have covered them in the original video. Because I slacked, I went ahead and made a separate video to give details on your questions. The video is linked below. The quick answers are: The softwood cuttings will go dormant in four months and can be moved at that time without shocking them. As for the spacing, I adjust spacing depending on the plant and root type. There are many more details in this CZcams video: czcams.com/video/srMr23pJXKY/video.html
wow thanks so much! :)
You can make all the cuttings you want off a patient plant for personal use. As long as you aren't selling it.
Yep.
You gotta share some with them pest,dogs,birds,the animal kigdom.They fertilized your soil man !
I'm with ya.
I need to know how to.propagate coz of our silkworm,thanks for thr info i krpt on propagating but rare were growing.
Good luck.
so how did they do ??? looked through your videos and did not see any thing as a follow up ! Am interested in what king of % you achieved Would be nice to see a visual follow up !! !
They are extremely easy to propagate.
Can't remember the exact percentage success. As pointed out in many comments, mulberry is very easy to propagate so I'm sure it was quite high.
What type of mist nozzles are you using and where did you find them?, Thanks
I'm using Dramm Stix. I can't remember where I bought mine, but I just did a quick google search and it looks like there are quite a few people out there selling them.
How long should you wait till you see any growth in your cutting are planting?
A lot of dependencies. In a humid climate with just the right sun and water you should have root growth in a week or two and added leave growth in less than a month. In less than ideal conditions it will take longer.
Is there a follow up video to this? Did it work?
I did have 4 plants that made it. Sorry, no follow-up video.
How do you prune these? Does pruning effect its everbearing qualities?
I prune dead wood and damaged wood. Then I shape the tree to the desired shape and propagate the cuttings from the good wood that was trimmed. The fruit grows on the new growth, so if you are pruning in spring before the plant has fruited, you will have reduced fruit.
Patents??? What a load of BS. Patenting nature should be criminal.
Call your Senator.
I can't argue with that. But as a public figure and commercial nursery business I have to follow the laws :(
Hello, do you have any tips on propagating elderberries?
Wow! I just assumed I had done a video on this in the past because I propagate these all the time. Thanks for pointing out that I missed this. Elderberry are extremely easy to propagate. You can use a mist irrigation system like is shown in this video. However, if you don't have that setup and don't want to go through the expense of setting one up, here are some other ways: Hardwood cuttings - take cuttings in the winter and just stick them in some soil. They will likely root and grow the following spring. One of my favorite methods is just to dig up the suckers that elderberries have and put the sucker in a pot. Put the sucker in the shade and keep it watered for a few weeks and it should take off for you.
is illinois everbearing mulberry a variety of mulberry? what are the other varieties and how do you recognize them?
The fruit is usually different with each variety.
There are many, many different varieties of mulberry. I'd recommend googling and getting familiar with what grows well in your area.
Are you selling any rooted cutting?
Cut few and stick them in a wet soil. Or in a cut bottle but you need to wet it a lot. No root hormone necessary. Got a massive mulberry is like 20 years old but is a full fledged tree at this point.
I do not sell mulberry in the nursery. Sorry.
Newbie here, how long before the cutting become fruit bearing?
I have Illinois Everbearing that has fruit in the gallon pot.
When taking cuttings you usually end up with fruit in a year or two. It takes longer with seedlings.
Looking mulberry trees in chicago, kenwood hyde park neighborhood. I'm starting a silkworm project.
Cool.
pick and eat before it's dull--it's just a bit tart that way, not so insipidly sweet. :)
Thanks!
why my mulberry tree does not have fruit ? thanks
Late freeze killed mine every year so I had to buy Ill. Everbearing.
Not sure. What zone are you in and what type of mulberry?
Checking if a tree in your yard is patented or trademarked? I just want some dam fruit.
ok.
@Great Escape Farms thanks for propagating technique. Much appreciated.
@@bossman6627 Most welcome.
Thank you for your nice video. Do you graft the mulberries in your farms? May I ask you, if is possible to show us how
to graft a normal mulberry tree to an overhanging tree. Thank you very
much.
Hello Blerina! I do not graft the mulberry trees. I'll likely be doing some grafting later this year on other plants and will do a video on how to do that. I'm not sure what you mean by an overhanging tree. It should work if the overhanging tree is a mulberry. You can not successfully graft a mulberry onto a non-mulberry tree. For example, you can't graft a mulberry onto an oak tree. You can graft a white mulberry onto a red mulberry. They just have to be in the same family.
Hello, thank you for your answer. Overhanging I mean that: naturally the mulberries grow as a huge tree. So when you don´t have so much place in your garden, the method of grafting of normal mulberry to whiping(overhanging) tree is a good solution, also the tree looks nice. Using such method of grafting the tree/branches doesn´t grow up-side direction but down-side. Of course I´m trying to graft a mulberry onto mulberry tree. There must be some secret how to graft it to whiping tree. I beleive that it will not be so difficult but you must now how to do it exactly. You can find so many videos about the other kinds of grafting but for the method I´m asking I could not found it till now. Best regards, Blerina
Best of luck on this method. I'd love to see a video on what ever you get to work. Please keep us posted! Thanks!
may u send me some cuttings plz?
I'm sorry, I no longer ship plants.
Shake the fruit onto a tarp
Yum.
Patented fruit and food is disgraceful. The only owner of nature is God and he gifted nature too all of mankind for our survival.
Amen!
Get to the point!!!
