Easy Plant Propagation Under Humidity Domes: Perennials & Roses
updated
The levels of protection included: 1) grouping plants together, 2) shelter from wind in an unheated greenhouse, 3) crop cover, and 4) moving to a minimally heated area. As you might expect, you can easily see the difference between those that were given the lower levels of protection and those that were provided higher. This is especially true with the younger/smaller plants that are far more vulnerable.
In this video I'll show you the results, and they really are quite striking! You can easily see the difference in the foliage, of course, but more importantly, in the health of the roots.

Whether you're a cut flower grower, a small farmer that wants to add some perennials to your farm stand, an aspiring backyard grower, or just an avid plant lover who wants to see *all* the options, this video is for you. I'll discuss the different ways to add a wider selection (and better pricing) to your plant purchasing. I'll also discuss how teaming up to pool orders with other small growers is a win-win for all involved.
Now, the specific supplier info in this vid is obviously based on the marker I know: North America. Nevertheless, the basic options would be similar wherever you go: seeds, bulbs & bare root, cuttings & plugs. So I hope you can get something out of this no matter where you're joining us from!

Now I can already anticipate some push-back on this topic. No worries! Let's discuss. The main objection, I suppose, will be from people who say "my soil is too poor/clay/rocky/waterlogged/sandy/alkaline etc. so I need to improve the planting hole to give my trees a fighting chance!". I respond with this: you can't realistically solve a "whole yard" problem one hole at a time. If it's poorly drained, for instance, your rich planting hole just became an easy place for the water to collect. If it's infertile, let your roots anchor into it, and then mulch, improve, and feed appropriately from the top down to support the whole root system.
For those who may argue anecdotally along the lines of "I planted with heaps of manure in the bottom of the hole, and it always worked for me" I'll say two things: 1) I'll never try to argue against your personal experience or success - I don't have the same facts in front of me as you do, and you're really the best person to make that call, and 2) I'd suspect that a similar dressing of manure added as a top layer and watered in regularly as the plant(s) established would deliver the nutrition equally and avoid some of the potential risks.

Some of these can be overcome with some by adjusting which plants you apply it to or the manner of use. In my situation, I'm confident the advantages far outweigh any concerns!

1. Plant the mums out in the garden fairly early after purchase - the more time they have for rooting, the better. In my example, I'm starting late, so I've trimmed the flowers. That'll serve (I hope) to allow more light down to the foliage, and redirect the plant's energy from flowering to rooting.
2. Propagate by cuttings. Again, this is likely better earlier in the year - on mums you've already overwintered. I'll show in this video, however, that it's possible to root cutting even from flowering stems.

The topic for discussion is how each of us has developed a plant business to provide activity and income for retirement. Those who have watched my videos on backyard nursery in the past will know this: I wouldn't suggest the plant business is either easy or a sure money maker. It's not just a matter of sinking your retirement money into plants and expecting a quick return. I hope you'll see from the discussion that it pays to do a lot of research and to understand your own abilities & risk tolerance levels.
Thanks so much to Larry and Martha for participating in the video!

I should say a couple more things I didn't have time to address in the video. 1) of course if you're in a climate with no serious cold, it makes no sense to wait until spring, and you're more likely to tackle your structural pruning in the coolest part of the year. 2) if you're in a climate much colder than mine, you may also be offering some winter protection to your roses in the form of wrapping/covering/mounding with soil. It's still a good idea to time this protection carefully and let your roses see some cold beforehand. A touch of cold can help settle them into dormancy, which makes them more likely to survive the conditions inside the protective layer.

Sorry to say it, but the responsibility and blame falls on the buyer. It's your job to ask the questions that matter, and demand satisfactory evidence before opening your wallet. Vague claims and a lack of independent evidence should mean you won't purchase, full stop. That's the only power the consumer has to convince these supplement makers to offer specific, reality-based claims and back them up with research.
I mentioned that even within the humic acid industry, there's concern about the false claims. Here's a link to one of those suppliers: youtu.be/qxlotcSrSWQ?si=vu6_KyASO2JNxyLL&t=27 Note that even though he acknowledges the problems, it's still his business to promote the benefits of humic acid. I'm not judging, I just always consider the source.
The products profiled in this video, the the sections discussing/showing their packaging, website, claims and even commercials are offered here under what I'll be happy to defend as fair use. One of the better outcomes user-generated video platforms like YouTube is open criticism of business practices. If HB101 or Superthrive don't like it, it's completely within their power to specify and prove their marketing claims.

We haven't gone ahead and built the more familiar "from the ground up" version of a retail garden center. Partly that would be from a reluctance to sink big money into the effort. Instead, we're trying to bootstrap our reputation from local plant sales, garden clubs and social media - and the result is a less formal shopping experience. We're adding more plants as we can propagate them (with some bought in for additional assortment) and we're now working on the bones of our display gardens.

Many thanks to the owners, Paula & Greg for having me out to the nursery for this demo and tour. I'm also grateful to Julia & Rajpal for the tour and demo, and everyone else on the team who welcomed me onto the site.
Incidentally, for those who follow my channel, Paula & Greg were the managers who hired me straight from horticulture school many years ago. I worked under their leadership for many years (at a different nursery). It's exciting to see how far they've taken their new venture, and I can't wait to see what else they'll do with it.

A couple of questions I'll answer here in the description, even though I expect I may have to answer again to comments:
1) Yes, we'll have some mix of roses and/or clematis climbing both of the metal pergolas we've already built, as well as the custom (curved garden) shade structure to follow. I don't yet know which ones, but will update you when they go in the ground.
2) I don't expect that Lisa will often join me for videos, so I'm happy you got to meet her. It made a lot of sense for this subject because she's the big-picture thinker for garden and nursery projects. For more routine garden and nursery videos I'm generally more comfortable with the topics, and so we just follow a natural division of labor.

It goes without saying (or maybe not!) that you'll have to evaluate this timing and advice as it applies to your own climate & hemisphere. As you go into lower latitudes and warmer climates, you may push back into later months or even get to the point where these particular seasonal differences are irrelevant.

It's important, I think, to note that I may not yet have the solution to the problem even after this closer look. What I have is a little more information, and the makings of another attempt. Plant propagation is all about persistence. While many plants will root from stem cuttings with the same basic conditions and methods, other plants can be quite particular about the stage (ripeness) of wood, temperatures, time of year, rooting hormone. In short: each plant can be a little different. My modest (but non-zero!) success rate only serves to motivate additional attempts.
If interested, here's a link to that study I was looking at on blueberry cuttings:
