  • I was told to take cuttings in late october or early november and plant them directly in pots after letting the cuttings sit a few days. Then put them in a protected place to winter, watering them once a month. I was told that they will sprout in the spring. Do you think this is a good method? If the cuttings are kept outside in the winter, what need would there be to put them in the frig?

  • Does it need to be in sunlight or would a warm room be better. Thanks for you great tips would love to see how you air layer also ? Ty

  • Hi, thank you for the video. Can you take a cutting from a fig tree during the summer and still get it to root?

  • @Dillstuck Yes you can do that. Just remove all the leafs and figs from the cutting. Good luck!

  • Hi, Nice video. You sort of inspired me to make a video and try this youtube thing myself. I started growing figs two years ago. I always used news paper but now use sphagnam moss mostly.

  • @tmc200527 Thank you very much for creating your own version on “how to root fig cuttings”. I hope you will be able other wonderful videos such as the ones you made!

  • i have a friend who is going to send me some cuttings, i am going to try to get them to root in my aeroponic cloner. think it will work.

  • @mikracken

    Good luck! and I hope everything works out fine. If possible you could ask him if he could send you some suckers. This would save you same!

  • Very interesting! Do you think using rooting hormone would improve the odds with this method?

  • @Norman60Fahrer

    I have never used root hormones but I guess it could work. However, someone told me that you should use gel based hormones and not powder based hormones. If I can remember well it had something to do with rotting… Remember that there all sorts of way to root fig cuttings that go beyond what I show in this video.

  • Great Video! i followed your directions with 20 cuttings and had 85% of them root.

  • Did it root and how long does it take to root?

  • @southsidedezi

    2 out of 3 did root and survive. As stated in the video, there is no specific time frame. These ones took a few weeks. Good Luck!

  • nicely done and very helpful thanks

  • Thanks i will try this option with my fig cuttings hopefully it will work!
