In this video I’ll show you a simple way to propagate fig trees with 100% success! And I’ll explain an even easier method that’s nearly as effective.

So i put pete moss (the powder kind) moistened it a lil and added banana peels on the bottom of my cuttings.
I covered them in zip locs to retain humidity and i added hole at the bottom of my cups. Then i added those cups into smaller cups with a lil bit of water in them just touching the bottom of the fig cup. Do you think this should work? Im very nervous
Have you tried willow water for rooting?
Great video. Do you have trouble with fungus gnats using the soil?
Excellent video! Super informative and to the point! One question tho, the cuttings didn't receive any light up to the 8-week point when they all had leaves??
Great video – can you do the same thing for avocado trees or mango trees? Nonna has two that are massive and would love to do this if it’s a thing for those trees too.
Hello, can I do the same with mangoes? Thank you
Thumbs up! A friend gave me fig trees grow out of ground near his original tree. Do you know if that kind of tree will fruit? and how many years do I have to wait? Thanks!
Love to see/hear how those “bucket cuttings” worked out. If that’s a viable method it seems like it’s hella less finicky work.
My friend, what is this liquid with which fig sprigs fondle before planting
Looking to buy some of your tiger strip fig tree I really like the size of your cuttings ,please let me know
This is very helpful. I have had success propagating roses from cuttings, and this looks even easier!
I just found your videos and now I'm binging your whole channel lol so excited for more
Excellent rooting process!
What month did you start this? Thanks
EXCELLENT VIDEO! I'm a new home owner and I've adopted a HUGE fig tree with the house – like at least 15' tall and just as wide. It's out of control! Plan to prune it WAY down this fall – wondering if your propagation technique will work for me. Did you keep them in the garage because they need to be kept out of sunlight for that period of time? I am in El Paso, TX – so mild winters, but it does freeze. Appreciate any insight you might have for me as a super newbie gardener. Thanks in advance!
Great video. I’ve done everything you’ve done here except I went a step further and covered with a vented plastic bag as I don’t have a heat pad. Is that going to cause too much humidity?? Thx
Thank you for this video. I currently have a full grown fig tree and wanted to take a piece of it with me to my new house. You are inspirational!
Great and informative
Thank you. Didn't know to just prune in dormant stage.
when do you take the cuttings
I have a fig tree that sprung up along my fence. The figs are dry and awful. Could I graft better figs onto it? Any other options
Where are u located it seems warm when u pruning. I m in Bristish Columbia Canada we do the pruning here in January or February . Should I do some cutting in the summer instead?
Do thinner green twigs work too?
My figs die back in most winters. However it’s spread into quite a large Bush. I’m going to be air propagating this week.
What time of the year did you do the curing?
What do you think about doing cuttings before fall? I want to take cuttings from my trees before I move…
What time of the year should we use to prune the fig tree, so the pruned branches can be grown ?
This was made back in 2020, do you still have any of those fig trees available for sale. I am located in Santa Cruz Ca. I will gladly come to pick it up!
I also do the bucket method.I feel its more easy way to root because it much less work and much less space to use.thanks for sharing.its will help others to grow figs.
Hi! Great video!
Do you think I could plant a whole branch?
My tree has one big branch that gets in our way and I thought maybe I could cut it and propagate it, but I don't want to waste it:(
Also, it has a lot of fruit, would that be a problem?
