I have a great suggestion for you u Pour some dried dirt in the bottle after you make your holes. Fill it halfway. Now lay it horizontal. And slide it over your branch . Now using a funnel now fill with water and you can ad rooting hormones to the water or rub it on the cambium that you exposed , before covering the branch. Also make sure the cambium is covered with a-lot of the dirt once you turn it vertical . Them zip tie to another branch for support Twine if zip ties too short. Enjoyed your idea !

Great simplistic well thought out video. I'm here in Indiana on some land. I'm focused on sustainability and homesteading. I've been involved in aspects of components of the life for a lot of years. I'm now culminating the knowledge and executing. I have some new plum, peach, apricot trees I'd like to propagate using cloning. A lot of my trees are on root stocks primarily to offer size traits or cold hardiness I believe. None of that I particularly care about outside of climate related issues. They claim I'm in zone 6A but literally everywhere around this one swirl in Indiana is in 5A or 5B...... I've long thought zone 5 and the powers that be are messing with me. I'd like to know or see the time frame on rooting, removal and subsequent planting of that peach clone. I subscribed and hope to see the before mentioned and more from you. I've noticed a lot of videos show things that work in theory and seem successful but rarely do I see updates or coverage of those things shown and followed on a time frame. Makes me question how much and successful some things shown are in producing viable things long term. Good luck and great video how too and showing little tricks that only people who do these things know.

John Coale II thank you for watching though I didn’t get to film any of the results from this propagation I plan to do so in progression next go around. This tree is on its last leg do to some water damage and I wanted to get as many propagations done on it as I could to carry it on. But typically I leave the bottles on for 8-10 weeks to form a good root ball that will do well when transplanted into a container and then ultimately into the ground. I do my propagating as soon as the nights no longer freeze which is early for me down here in south east Texas.

I take it your air layering/ propagation didn’t work as we didnt see an update as promised. I’m about to air layer a peach tree so I hope it works. I know I need to use rooting compound or honey to stimulate growth. Only moist not “soaking wet” moss or filler will do. Needs to be sealed top and bottom so it won’t dry out. The condensation will keep it moist enough over the months. I appreciate your video and wish you success out on your ranch. 😃 yay Texas! I’m a born and raised Texan myself living in East Texas.

If you keep it covered and moist and preferably dark it will force roots out. Doesn’t always work so if you have multiple branches to try it betters your chances of one taking. I usually do branches I am planning to prune anyway. Also time is of essence you don’t want to do it while it has fruit. Early spring or after fruiting is complete works best for me
