🪴ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
in this video I will share how I got my ficus plants to grow a branch (and more!) in less than three months. This method works with any ficus plant: ficus lyrata aka fiddle leaf fig, ficus elastica (tineke, ruby, burgundy, etc...) aka the rubber tree plant, ficus audrey, ficus altissima and more! I am also sharing the results of my methods I used on my ficus audrey and ficus elastica ruby.

I would love to see an update! How are your branches coming along? 😍

First, this video was the best I have seen about notching and I have watched over a dozen different videos on the topic in the last 24 hours. Thank you for actually showing you notching in action, and good camera work!

2nd - I want to give you props as a content creator.i almost always default to playing YouTube videos in 1.25x speed because so many creators drag on so slowly and spend so much time on filler commentary. I actually turned your video back to 1x speed because it was clear you already have a great pace. You had a little intro speech but it was short and sweet and on topic so I didn’t skip over it, and you maintained a great flow as the video progressed.

Thank you for being engaging without being gimmicky!

The more branches the better for me... I want a very brushy looking ficus tree

[DavidGarcia-kmhc]

Omg you are such a sweetheart. Thank you for the info suga.

I have a ficus audry, i bought it last year. it did grow bigger/higher but within the process it lost all the branches down so now it is bald with branches only on the top. I will try to rebranch it and come back to you within 3 months :)
Hopefully it works, i am sad my tree became bald juts like me. 😂😂

[jenniferdias]

You videos are amazing !
So informative and generous with your tips and advice! I am following you from the UK.

I am so glad I saw this I have a fiddle fig and it's like 4 feet tall with no branches just growing straight up I tried what you suggested and cant wait for the results

[lunalee]

Thank you for doing the cutting on camera! That is so helpful because I’ve been scratching my head at people describing this.. your video is the first on that made sense lol.

[angeee]

Thank you so much for this video! It’s been the most helpful when searching for notching videos. Very detailed. Thanks!

[sarabenegar]

Also you said that about cloning powder cinnamon works the same if you get it wet into a paste it promotes growth and you can put it on broken leaves or stems and it works like a band-aid healing it I use cinnamon on all my plants u should give it a try!

[erichgallardo]

Thank you Marianne, your video is very helpful, will try it as soon as my ficus elastica gets to be a little older. Salamat po !

Looking forward to a full Audrey video, thanks. Mine is new, with three distinct trunks in a small pot. It needs transplanting, as roots are growing out of the pot holes and especially at the soil surface, and I wonder if its best to try and separate the three trunks and put them in their own separate pot, or just let it grow as is. Will gently detangling the roots from its neighbors damage or endanger the Audrey, or can it tolerate this?
UPDATE: I went ahead and carefully depotted and detangled the roots, giving each tree fresh soil and thorough watering. The threesome was so root-bound that untangling took a good 20 minutes or more. It's been a week and they look great. I also notched the trunks as you demonstrated. I will update in a few months.

How I liked your presentations. It's clear and so informative. Now I can notch a part of my ficus without fear! Thank s a lot.

[Ashleigh.Mayhew]

Hi! Awesome video! 😊 It’s March 12, 2023, here in NH, and I just notched my Ficus Audrey. I decided it was time because there is new growth happening after all my leaves dropped off over the winter, so I’m excited to see what happens! It’s still a fairly young plant, but I believe it’s old enough for pruning. As a starting note, I notched in three spots. Will update if/when I see something happening!

[rizzyevanock]

Very informative, thank you for sharing a video.

[sentimentallia]

Ooo! It would be cool to see a ficus Audrey care video. I feel it’s a tad less finecky than the Lyrata but still confusing 😵‍💫

[laurenervin]

I wish I'd seen this video a couple months ago! I'll DEFINITELY be trying this with my Burgundy rubber tree. I also have an Audrey, but it's already pretty full. I'm really not surprised you got that one to branch out so fast, because I've noticed that my Audrey is a MUCH faster grower than my Burgundy

[rj]

Yes please are care video for the ficus trees.

[peterdecicco]

finaly someone showed it brach u are great

[saeedhhra]

I can't wait to see the results on my rubber tree after thr notching.
