- How do you mail bare root plants? I recently received some new fig cuttings and other bare root fruiting plants. Well it's time to return the favor. I'll be shipping a bare root plant through the mail and showing you how to do it step by step.

That was fast. Very fast. Lots of root growth on both plants. Great video..👍👍!
Yes, it was nice that she was just a little ways north of me. Probably could have drove it there, haha.
Those Smiffs are little rippas 😎
Just a tip on bare rooting trees, soak them in water (soil all covered) for a couple of hours and then take the hose with some pressure to the roots.
Thanks, I might try that next time.
Great video. One day I’ll be confident enough to try these shipping methods with my cuttings. Thanks for the information.
Loving all these fig videos. Thanks
Glad you like them!
A bucket of water works to get out the dirt. That's what we do to transplant seedlings in the aquaponics unit. Now, got to wait till early January to transplant the Brown Turkey. Right now, I should take cuttings and wrap them in wet newspaper for a few months. Plenty of room in the fridge. Merry Christmas!
Yep, I'll be doing the same soon. Merry Christmas!
It was nice to run into your family at Stewart Meats! I’ve been along time subscriber and to finally meet your family! And I don’t even live close….but had always hoped to meet ya all! Merry Christmas!
That was really cool and it was so nice to meet you too, Tina. Thanks for coming up to us and saying something. Merry Christmas to you too!
...did someone say "BONSAI??"
SPEAKING of bonsai and root care, go get yourself a "root hook," which is essentially a hand rake with only one tine. Great for getting in there and raking out big roots like these and getting down to the bare roots. Cheers Mike, thanks for all the great tips!
A root hook sounds like a good idea. Love the channel name, lol
What a great way to incorporate your viewers into a video. When I finish domesticating my woods, I would love to swap some dry root plants with you. That’s a season or two away for me, clearing the land is a bit more involved for one man than I thought. Thank goodness for hydraulic power.
Haha, I know all about clearing land. I've done it by hand, with old equipment both small and big, and hired help. In 15 years I've realized that sometimes it's best to just hire the right guy with the right equipment to come out and get the job done in an 8 hour day.
It's like Santa's been to your house already, Mike LOL. I was thinking, I wonder if you could propagate that fat root that you just cut off. I heard you could with fat roots but not sure about figs. Maybe in the future, when you come across roots like that to give it a go for us :).
btw, my White Adriatic fig that I put in the ground 3 years ago has finally fruited. In the last two years, I've been whining that it's lazy to give me fruit. I read somewhere that tip pruning encourages side shoots or fruiting. Last spring, I did that and voila, it worked. Now, I'm a momma to about 16 fruits on my little tree. I'm going to try and marcot a branch that is sticking out in my walkway. My family doesn't get why I'm always talking about this fig tree LOL. They will later in the New Year when it ripens. I tell ya, for one fruit at the store is about $1.50. Winning! :)
In case I forget, I wish you, your wife, and your daughters a Merry Christmas.
p.s., you made a lot of people out there excited about propagating plants and that's really cool. :)
So good to see you Mary! Hope you're enjoying your summer. Merry Christmas to you and your family too. Dang, that would have been a good video with planting the root. Wish I would have thought of that one, haha.
very nice video mike. looks easy peasy. good luck to each of you, hoping the figs grow well. cp.
Thanks Carmine, I'm getting as nuts about these figs as I am about rhododendrons. Starting to get more and more into fruiting plants. Cool to know we'll always have a supply of ripening fruit through the summer. Just need to hone my preserving and storage skills and we're set.
Ty Mike for the video... Charlie was quiet today😂
loved this video! i think i need to send a box cutter to Kim tho!
Haha, send me one too. I used my truck keys, lol
I feel good when I see you
It's good to have you here, Emad
Very cool video Mike can't wait to see how that fig grows man. You are making me want to grow more fig trees lol
It's an addiction. I think you'd have good luck with them if you could get them started in your soil. Your summers seem to stretch on longer and stay warmer into the fall.
Looks great Mike. If you have a really warm green house I'd be honored to send you a Meyer lemon tree.
Made my first lemonade from a yr old tree yeahhhh! Hubby did wonderful job staking in place. 🐊⚜️.
PS - Looking for a Clementine tree if you know anyone that I can purchase one from it would be fantastic?
I'd love to have a Meyer lemon, unfortunately I don't have a warm greenhouse but I do have plans to eventually build one. I'd love to build something in the 24 by 48 foot range. I already have the heater for it.
@@MikeKincaid79 I usually do everything on my phone, but I know it doesn't show your email. Therefore here I sit at my computer and I still can't find your email. I was going to email you mine so when your ready you can send me your P.O.Box or business address to ship it to you.
I’d be honored to have the tree but I don’t have a greenhouse yet. Don’t want to kill a nice little Meyer lemon. You can contact me privately through my Facebook page at Kincaid’s Nursery.
Happy Holidays to your family.
Great video editing. Awesomeness ‼️✅
Thanks Dan, I had fun with this one. Happy Holidays to you and your family as well.
MIKE, HAPPY THANKS GIVIN!! HAPPY/MERRY VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! thank for this video, just what i was searching for, other videos on this subject seems to leave something out of them! 110 thumbs up !!
Happy to include it all and Merry Christmas to you too!
Nice tutorial.
Thanks!
Thank you, Mike, for putting this info out there for us. Going bare-root is not as intimidating as I thought. I asked you about this a few weeks/months back, and here you are dropping the knowledge on us again! Thank you!
By the way, you keep threatening to start in on Bonsai. When are you going to go for it? Or is that your private deal, not something you share with the world at large?
Haha, already starting it, just takes time as you know. I'm hoping the massive fig cutting I took last summer will look good as a bonsai. I'm sure it will take a few years to develop. I have some thoughts about up-potting that cutting to a huge tub to get more branch growth and roots. I'll film it when I do that.

@@MikeKincaid79 I can see it on YT " Mike is gone Bonzaï " 😅
cant wait to see that Figzaï 😅
Mike: I sent you some cuttings from the Tehama White Mulberry in the antiquities area of the Mendocino National Forest Seed Farm. Several weeks later I found the letter I had intended to ship with it showing photos of the tree and the tags attached with all the cultivar information. Anyway if you got an envelop from Chico California full of cuttings with no information included thats what it was.
Glenda, I'm so sad to say that they are no longer with us, lol. I did receive the cuttings and thought that it was really cool that you sent them but they weren't labeled and I had no idea what they were. I kept them in my fridge for months while my wife grumbled at me, in the hopes that an identification would eventually come forward. I went back and forth about trying to root the branches but since I had no idea what I was dealing with, and the pressure was mounting, I had to get rid of them. I actually got rid of them just a week or 2 ago. I so wish that I would have seen this just a few weeks ago. Now I'm more interested in them than ever! For the life of me, I can't remember if I put them in the garbage or threw them on the burn pile (I know, the horror) but I'm going to run out and look all over the burn pile right now! I have so many projects going on and I need to know what it is that I'm working with and unfortunately we crossed paths just a little late. Not sure if you'd ever have access to the plant again but knowing what I know now, I'd root them for sure. I am very glad that you have finally come forward and I at least have a person to talk to about it, lol. I suppose I should have just wrote you back!

@@MikeKincaid79 I am sorry I forgot to enclose the information. Luckily I walk my dog at the tree farm almost everyday. They have the original California Pistachio tree, original CA kiwi vines and many trees brought from all over the world in the late 1800's still growing. I will take some cuttings from the Mulberry tree in the spring and send it to you clearly labeled this time. Really enjoy your channel.
That would be awesome! In the meantime I'm still searching for them, lol.
Hey Mike Happy Holydays.
Happy Holidays, Adrien!
Nice 👍
Thanks for the video . 👍👍👍👍👍😁
No problem 👍
Looks good Mike! I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving! So good to see you and to hear Henry🤣. He was not as talkative though! Always a learning something, great video!
What are you up? Hugs to your girls!🤗💜🤗
Happy holidays Camelia! Been working on those house plans lately. There's definitely a lot involved in building a house.
Thank you Mike you too! Are you building a house? How exciting! Yey! Happy for you guys! It is a lot of work but super gratifying in the end! Good luck! I am sure you are doing an amazing job! Can not wait to see!🤗🤗🤗💜💜💜🤗🤗🤗
We’re just starting the process. I’ve been working with an architect and the power company so far. We plan to hire out most of the work to the professionals but we’ll be the general contractors on it. New learning experience.
That's awesome Mike! It's going to be a lot of work but well worth it! Good luck, God bless! Can't wait to see the process! Hugs to you and your girls! 🤗🤗🤗💜💜💜🤗🤗🤗
Do you have a heater in your hoop house? If not what is the temerature it drops to at night? Great videos by the way! I learn a lot from them.
No heater and both ends are open through the winter. It freezes hard as a rock in the hoop house.
@@MikeKincaid79 Does your greenhouse stay below freezing even during the day? We have winters here in the upper Ozarks where we never get out of single F° digits for days at a time. You would think it would be much warmer than that here, but it's not. We're Zone 5b.
Mike I have a 12 lb bag of worm castings I would like to make a worm tea as Fertilizer to water my plants how many tablespoons would I need in 5- Gallons of water also wonder if it would work in my aero garden machine so ur the only one I can ask and turn to and u always answers my questions
I'll answer it but it may not be what you want to hear, lol. I've actually never used worm tea. I'm more of the mindset that you plant it in ground and let the worms do their thing in the soil. In pots, I use slow release fertilizer but the goal is always to get them in the ground. I know that probably doesn't help but maybe I'll get into doing some experiments with worm tea eventually. I will say that I have had a worm casting bin in the past and the worm castings make some of the best fertilizer imaginable.
Love those fig videos, I don't care what they are about. How did the Rhodes turn out, I hope not to much damage. And I plan on getting more cuttings next spring and summer of different kinds of figs, I have decided I need a bigger variety. 😂 As always love you and your family 💞💞💞💞
I'm still cleaning debris from that mess, lol. The rhododendrons will be OK though, thanks for asking.

I've got stuff from Kim, she's great. You ever gonna sell cutting of that massive wild fig you found?
I've got one in a 1 gallon pot that I could send you. Contact me on Facebook at Kincaid's Nursery.
👍wowww
Please, can you make a vedio on rooting an apple plant cutting and how to achieve better roots in apple cloonal rootstock (m9) after propagation
I plan to do some videos on rooting apple tree cuttings. I do have a video on grafting them here: czcams.com/video/AEWcib0GN_w/video.html
I have cuttings coming from Armenia!
Man, that's awesome! Love the thought of getting fig cuttings right from the source in other countries.
White Madeira
Sounds good! I’ve yet to acquire that variety. Keep me in mind if you ever sell cuttings.
@@MikeKincaid79 ordered on Etsy for a very reasonable price if in fact they are genuine and true to type
An hour north of you means 9 days with USPS these days.
Hahaha, ain't that the truth.
Hey Mike K. Would you ever consider selling that huge log cutting u made a few months ago?
That thing is priceless man, lol. Only one in the world. Just kidding, I'd consider selling it but there are so many future videos to be made with it as we turn it into a bonsai. I suppose if someone offered to settle my mortgage I'd part with it. Otherwise, I have made cuttings of that particular variety available in the past and could offer them again at some point. Thanks for asking, Jimmy, and Happy New Year man!!!
Mike, what do you think of decomposed granite as a medium? I was at the store looking for a rooting medium and stumbled on decomposed granite. Looks like the perfect texture. My only concern is that it will compact too much when watered. At any rate, I'm giving it a shot.
Never used it but I’d love to hear how it works for you.

Wow amazing..😯😲😲 are you selling your rare grapes cutting can buy it please..,
I’ll post them on eBay when I have them for sale. Thanks for asking.
@@MikeKincaid79 Thank you bro
Recycling at its finest 😂
LOL, that's it. Reuse those bags where I can.
Do you have to remove all of the foliage on the plant. I do see life on stem or limbs..
These were dormant plants and there was no foliage left on them by the time I got around to this. I have mailed plants with foliage. Here's a video about it: czcams.com/video/lv1LFsnCOZs/video.html At the end of the video, you can see how it arrived at its destination across the country.
Thank you 🙏🏻 ‼️. I have a house plant doing same circle root thingy that I had no clue could damage plant. I just repotted so will fix it but is it ok to wait until next November or should I do now? Do you know anything about pruning a kratom down to make more bushy? It took a bad beating by Hurricane Ida 😔. Ida destroyed A greenhouse that I only had for not even a year that was the size of yours. I’m so so sad because now I have to start saving again for another. Was expensive grrrr. Any suggestions on company with good price by chance? God Bless and have a fantastic day! South Louisiana here ( Mathews) 🐊⚜️
I'm not familiar with that plant but as long as it's dormant until spring, yes, you can wait until spring to up pot or correct any issues. It won't grow through the winter anyway. Sorry to hear you were affected by Hurricane Ida. Those darn things just keep pummeling you guys down there.
Comment
LOL
I wish I could trade figs with you Mike, but there's this thing called the Border :(
Where are you at?
@@MikeKincaid79 Victoria, BC
Dang, that’s just about 4 or 5 hours north of me. Maybe things will relax soon and the mail will flow better across the border again.
Off topic, but does anyone have a suggestion for a heating mat that actually works? The crap on Amazon does not seem to produce any heat.
Yes, there is a link to some really good heat mats in all of my videos
🌹🌺🥀💐
Hey Mike! Do you have the PJM Elite Rhododendron and can I buy some cuttings from you?
I do have it but cutting material won’t be ready until August.
