What your Dahlia cuttings SHOULD LOOK LIKE

We demonstrate what dahlia cuttings should look like at different stages after taking the cutting. Some of these tubers are showing signs of distress, and we discuss what to do about it.

I have picked up many tips and tricks from you! I have a few cuttings going for my 1st ever go at it. Not sure of their exact start date but I had not been covering them with any bag or dome. Some look great and a few are wilting and struggling so I will be adding that today ...Thank you! I seriously could listen to you talk for hours!!!

So did you start with seed starting mix which does not have as much nutrient as regular compost……then after 56 days is that the same soil or have you changed it?

Hi there. I have to say your videos are great, very clear and concise!. I started taking dahlia cuttings last year following your videos with your bag technique, and have had nearly 100% success both last year and the same this year.
Though if I may ask a question regarding this video and the pot bound plant, would this be the start of a pot tuber plant? Or would you repot on again to form a pot tuber. Thanks again

Are you using 3 or 4" pots, or what is the measurement, and I can convert it. Thanks... great comparison of the ages!

Thank you for the videos. I have a question. Do we have to pinch out the main shoot off the dahlia clumps? (like the single dahlias)

Thank you.
