hi everyone. sorry im totally new to the wold of rooting! would love to root clematis and various pines and spruces if its possible. do you have any advice for me?
is it possible to root spruces with rootone?
From freeplants.com:
Growing spruce using cuttings is not easy, even for professional growers.
Clematis: Softwood cuttings in late spring. As with almost all softwood cuttings, intermittent mist will dramatically increase your success.
Dwarf Alberta Spruce: Softwood cuttings in mid to late June under intermittent mist, or hardwood cuttings in the late fall with bottom heat.
Colorado Blue Spruce: Grow from seed. Collect the pine cones in the fall before they open and allow them to open in a paper bag to catch the seeds. Store in a cool dry place until spring, then sow them outside.
White Pine Trees: Grow from seed. Collect the pine cones in the fall before they open and allow them to open in a paper bag to catch the seeds. Store in a cool dry place until spring, then sow them outside.
Weeping White Pine: Must be grafted on to a white pine seedling.
Austrian Pine: Grow from seed. Collect the pine cones in the fall before they open and allow them to open in a paper bag to catch the seeds. Store in a cool dry place until spring, then sow them outside.
Mugho Pine: Grow from seed. Plant them outside in the spring.
As always, a google.com search will bring up tons of information.
ok thank you so much for replying!
Trying.............Red Rome Apple to Colorado Blue Spruce. If it takes we will have a Northern Pineapple. LOL
you are trying to graft the one to the other?
has anyone heard of the banapple? It looked like a small banana. It tastes like apple and banana, but I can't imagine the two trees grafted together. The roots of the apple tree couldn't possibly suck up enough moisture to feed the banana half.
This is supposed to be the most common way to make a cutting, called the mallet cut. They say it's most successful. I also use MGQuick Start for everything. Makes roots grow like crazy.
It looks like I might have a mite problem. The tree is doomed because they have to take it down for the path of the new septic system. I used Bayer Advanced systemic for fruit trees because "it's not as bad as the other stuff".
