Happy growing!
Great video! I wish I had known of this technique years ago. Sea berries and Goumi definitely don’t root if you take micro softwood cuttings and put them under mist, ie, standard commercial technique. I never had any success with dormant hardwood cuttings either. Excellent useful information right here, well done.
My pleasure to share. I've lost HUNDREDS of cuttings trying all sorts of methods and am really happy to find a path that works well for me. If I had this video available years ago I'd be in a forest of seaberry by now!
ive been most interested in the willow propagating, thats the OG by the book way to get the difficult rooters. You already have 30 seaberry sold Sean, the project farm would love more of your diversity, the comfrey have blown up 2nd year in, keep us updated on when they go live for sale.
Oh I am so glad you made this! I want to do this eithy elderberries!
Our pleasure to share! Elders are super easy from hardwood cuttings in the fall, but I find if I have to trim back an elderberry in the summer it's nice to be able to get 40 extra plants for free :)
Thinking of taking a cutting off my newish blueberry plant and see if I can get it to root. Experiment and a way to maybe add more to the garden.
Awesome video, big fans of seabuckthorn.
Somewhere, in storage in the shop, we have an old fish tank. Why do we care? Glad you asked. Fish tanks require bubblers! Gonna dig around storage and find that thing today. I have cottonwoods, which are a willow, and two russian olives and 3 honey locusts. I'm gonna try rhis using cottonwood to propogate my olives and locusts. I hope cottonwood helps a wee bit. Probly won't, but gonna try it.
Why not try!? Put in a few other types of plants at the outset so you can learn more from your experiment. Doesn't seem to hurt to have a whole pile in there :)
@@edibleacres , I want to get some cuttings from a guy in town; he has some chinese elms the responded amazingly to being pollarded. But so far, I haven't reached him. Otherwise, all I have is pine and juniper.
Great stuff,
We've had seaberry here for 3 years and I love the way you treat it. A lot of the most useful information on seaberry and it's real tendencies and preferences I've learned on this channel.
Definitely getting a willow cutting too. Useful tree, seems like one to have in the yard.
Thanks
We're learning as we go. It's nice to be surprised by plants and learn new things about them.
Awesome VIdeo on Rooting Sea Berry and Goumi using Air Stone Aerated Rainwater and Willow! Thanks for the tips!
I hope these ideas serve you really well and you get 100s of plants!
Excellent! Thanks! I can't wait for my seeds to finish stratifying so I can get on my way there! :) cheers!
Great video! Could you make a video on the marketing/ where and how you sell your plants from the nursery? Really want to start one myself especially since you schow how it can be done less complicated.
That is a good topic for me to plan to cover sometime soon. Other folks have asked similar questions.
@@edibleacres including me! Lol and I directed someone today to your storefront! Love love love your mission. Keep it up and please help us make it a universal gameplan! We can change the world with small things like these. I have a willow I use for rooting too! And she is gorgeous.
Very cool. I have a honeysuckle tree, it’s an old fashioned thing, and it too won’t root on small skinny parts but the bigger stems work. I have been trying to air layer them. I am also planning to make a home made cloner machine which would be the same principle as your aerobic water dish,.. moving water, clean with hormone from willow. Really awesome thank you.
Brilliant! Looks easy! Thanks for sharing! 🌱🌱🌱🌱
Hope it works great for you if you give it a go.
Glad I saw this video. I've had trouble rooting in water.
My seaberries started off really well but this mid summer sun and heat is killing them. We’ve had a lot of die back. Surprising for NJ.
They need full sun to grow... Something else must be going wrong with them. They may very well sprout with strong suckers next season from the base.
EdibleAcres I hope so, I have them in full sun and theyre getting a bit more than average since my yard slopes slightly downhill to the south-east. We have clay soil so when it gets very hot for a few days in a row it compacts very hard. Im going to keep they well watered and hope they make it until fall.
I agree with Sean. I have had cuttings die back and then the following year come back quite well.
You are amazing thank you so much for sharing!
My pleasure I hope it works well for you.
Thank you for the video!
Adorable
I have a bunch of sea buckthorns growing in my back yard. I don't know what it is about the fruit but after eating a bunch i feel awesome. I freeze tons of it so i have some for the winter. Its really good as a side dish or on salads. I also blend it up to a pulp with some green peppers and its the greatest condiment.
I feel the same way. Eat a ton of seaberries... feel amazing!
Great job. Thank you.
Genius! I'm wondering how much perlite and sand you put in the propagation bed? Do you think anything would harm the cuttings if it were pond water instead of plain rain water?
I try to be liberal with the perlite and sand in these beds... I think for watering the cuttings once they are rooting and in soil, pond water sounds great. While they are in the bubbler 'pool' you probably want clean, rain water. Less nutrient.
Very nice tips again :) do you feel that the aeration of water plays an important role ? Compared to seabuckthorn + willow together in still water ?
Try it and learn, and I suspect aeration is valuable. You decide for sure
I am in britain trying to propagate sea buckthorn have done two large batches so far with no success, nice one I will try this looks promising 🙂
We tried this method again this year and so far we're having rough and bad results... Oh well :(
awesome to learn this! i will be adding this to my playlist! did you try honeyberry? or nankings? can you try some this week??? you should try peach too!
Thanks for all the open info on propagating that you've shared over time Buzz! I'll be trying the peach and nanking for sure. Honeyberry keeps rotting on me so I'm focusing on stool layering and hardwood...
@@edibleacres air layering is a bit time intensive but I have had success on a number of glorious creatures. Also interested in grafting but haven't dabbled in it much. Yet. Soon... And. For true to seed species.. Cold stratification is key for multiple germinations. Cherry, peach, apricot, currants.. Etc. Cheers, fellow stewards :) let's do this!
Brilliant. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much. You are excellent with the level of detail you share, and I have some questions about specifics. I would love a more specific comment about how much sun they had when they were simply sitting in the water? About how many willow cuttings did you do relative to the number of Seaberries? How fussy must one be about cleaning the bubbler after this process in order not to contaminate the future projects? I will experiment with putting cuttings that are just starting to form signs of forming roots in a better rooting medium than just water, and I think I will have more success and not lose as many to rot. Thank you. :) Blessings :)
Hours of sun - probably around 4-6 hours of direct sun. I think they'd probably enjoy more but thats what they got.
Ratio of willows to seaberry - maybe 3 seaberry to 1 willow, roughly, but that isn't from a specific observation, just that I wanted more seaberry!
Cleaning - I wipe everything down with pond water and then a watering can with rain water and call it good. SUPER sterile :) I bet being more clean wouldn't hurt, though...
Keep trying! I would guess I've killed thousands of cuttings to get to a place where I can root hundreds now. I'm sure I'll kill so many more in the process of learning and refining...
I looked through the comments to see if you'd already answered this question, but I don't see the info on this comment thread at least - what kind of bubbler do you have and can you post the link here if you like it?
Great Thanks grateful , Can I propagate seabuckthorn hardwood cuttings int he way please?
This is meant for softwood propagation, that is how we've used it. Would it work for hardwood? I don't know, but I suspect it wouldn't be an appropriate way
@@edibleacres Have you tried seabuckthorn hardwood cuttings? Thanks for your reply
I’m noticing that Josta berry is super easy to root in my aquaponic system. Gooseberry has not been as easy. Any tips?
Gooseberry seems happiest to root out in the garden with the tips and stems touching the ground. Look up 'tip layering' either in our videos or online and I suspect you'll get best results with gooseberry that way...
I would love to plant these but my winter is below-0
Canada.
Look up zone hardiness for Seaberry... they are hardy to zone 2 I believe, incredibly hardy plants.
where did you get that metal watering can?
love your experiments! Till when in the year would you continue this method? Does it make sense to still start a batch off at this time of the year (zone 7). Thank you for your great work!
I can't say I know, but it seems to wind down on propagating softwood sometime in early September, so I would consider it too late now, but also what do I know really!
Do you leave the rooted cuttings in that spot over the winter or move them before winter sets in?
I like to let the cuttings be in the soil over winter. Too much work with everything else going on to also dig them up. I figure it's a way to test if they've made good roots. In spring, I look for swelling buds and transplant or pot up the ones that handled a long cold winter, and compost the stems that didn't.
Any info on where one can acquire sea berry cuttings, particularly different varieties like orange energy and leikora?
perfectcircle.farm would be worth reaching out to...
Awesome video 👍 how old do plants have to be before you take softwood cuttings..? I purchased a plant which is maybe 50cm/almost 2 feet high which I just planted. I assume softwood cuttings this year is a bad idea..? would it risk killing the mother plant?
I wouldn't push it super early on. You'd do well to make sure a new plant feels VERY secure and established in your space before you take cuttings from them. 2 years would be about the minimum I'd say. You can certainly stool layer them if you wanted to set that in motion, sometimes I do that when I first plant!
Just put some softwood cuttings in water with Willow cuttings. They have roots. Not sure what to do now. Maybe pot up in a potting mix?
You can pot them up in nice potting mix in a container until the fall, or plant them where you want them to grow with ample mulch and follow up waterings a number of times. Maybe provide a bit of shade for a while for them.
have you tried this with red elder berry? they grow all over the place, and was wondering when to and how to treat the cuttings..... thank you for the video.... p.s. the frogs and toads would love this set=up
Red Elder... you mean the poisonous one? It seems to grow in a similar way to standard elder so I'd be it would work. Hardwood cuttings in the fall might be easiest.
@@edibleacres didnt know it was poisonous, as we were told to cook all elder berrys first before using,, thank you
🌷
If I'm not mistaken, Akiva Silver prefers to avoid using Perlite. What are your feelings on the subject? (I realize this video is a couple of years old, so you may not still be using it.)
I have mixed feelings, mainly not super excited to use it, but to be honest I haven't been able to find another material that does what it does so when it feels very useful in a certain application I'm OK with it.
Hey Sean! It's mid September and I'm in the Northeast. If I rooted seaberry cuttings now, could I them plant them into something like an airprune box indoors under lights or would I be ok to plant them into my nursery bed outdoors for the winter?
I would not do what you are describing... Too late in the season.
Wait until roughly March and you can take dormant hardwood cuttings on bottom heat and they will be calloused and ready to grow in the spring...
Sean will that work for black berry? 🌷🦇🌻🐓
Only one way to find out :)...
Hi Sean, thanks for the video! How early can one take softwood cuttings from seaberry? (Italy, mediterranean climate) Our plants are already full of new leaves, should we wait full summer anyway? Thanks again for the generous sharing of your findings
I can't say, I don't have experience with that climate... In our climate it is roughly August 1st that is ideal, so perhaps you try 1st week of June and again July and see how that works?
will you be offering seaberry this fall?
We thought we'd have good numbers from summer work this year but unfortunately it didn't work out :(

Hello Edible Acres have you ever had any slime develop on the cuttings? Could it be that they are callusing? They have been in the water for about a week now...Maybe I should change the water?!
For sure... It seems to be a real thing. I wonder if the water I root in is getting too much nutrient? Probably need to change water more often actually...
@@edibleacres Wow! Thank you for the quick response! :) Do you think the best thing to do now would be to clean the cuttings from that slime? Because in one moment we had a dilemma whether we should clean them or not, thinking that the slime might be how callus appears/looks in the water....
So just to make an update, we washed the cuttings carefully and changed the water, weeping willow is rooting after a week and after just 4 days...ROSEMARY!!! IT'S HAPPENING! Thank you Sean
FANTASTIC videos! Thank you so much
Have you changed the water during 12 days?
In this video I don't think I did... I have had mixed results with this method and am still looking for better ways to go about propagating seaberry if I can find them.
seaberry = sea buckthorn
is this ?
Yes, two names for the same plant.
Can i get cuttings
We don't offer cuttings for sale but perfectcircle.farm may
@@edibleacres thank you
