Good Evening: It’s that time of year again where I need to trim the trees and send out cuttings for beginners wanting to build a collection. Here is the list that I will send out this week. These are my own personal photos and I ask that they are not copied.
Thanks for your contribution and good luck rooting these. It’s a good assortment that should give you a lot of pleasure growing and tasting. I’m including 2 extra varieties. They will be surprises and will be more unique varieties.
If all goes well I will do this again next week. Thanks |

I want one soooooo bad! The only problem is that i can't get cuttings right now, can i get one from somewhere in a different time of the year? Like, spring? |

You can store them for quite some time in moist moss if you keep them cool |

That's a good deal. The VDB I received earlier this year is growing as a nice healthy plant with some figs already. I look forward to trying it next year :D |

I got in on this last year as well (and may get in on the 2nd batch...my collection is still small!). Good cuttings, great price. Those less common varieties he's referring to could very well be gems. Trust me on that! |

Mine came in yesterday. As I am incredibly new to this, I didn't expect the cuttings to be so thick and as long as they are. I feel like a kid in a candy store. Thanks. |

Looking good so far. I haven't seen roots in the cups yet but buds are swelling. |

Hey Dan the your cuttings are doing well in Iowa so far 100% success. They are soaking up some sun as it snows outside. Both packs went into damp sphagnum moss and just put the last cuttings into cups today. About 50 trees in cups total so far. As soon as they had roots showing in the cup I removed them from tote humidity as long as there was no budding out. Totally hardened to low humidity now by doing that. Couple leafed out and then showed roots in the cup so I slowly acclimated to low humidity. Thanks to the great info this forum provided I had good results. Now just keep up on the watering until spring. The quality of your cuttings are great Dan. Thanks again.. |

Hi, Chad: Hey your cuttings look great! I'm wondering two things; 1) how long have you been growing them and 2) where did you get your grow light? I need to buy a grow light. Any info is appreciated! |

Dan: I can see that all is going great with your cuttings. It's good to see such nice results! |
