How do I grow a raspberry plant from a raspberry branch?

hey, I'd like to grow a raspberry plant from one of its branches, if possible I would also like to do it from a peach tree, and an apple tree.





Before you start answering, I have already been trying, but every attempt has failed. They look like they are doing well at first, but 3 or 4 weeks later when they should be getting roots, I take a look and there is nothing, and then, if they have leaves on them they all start to die.





For the raspberry, I cut off a nice green branch that was about 8 inches long at the point of a leaf. (that’s what a node is right?) I removed the lower leaves, I cut a little bit of the bark off the bottom part of it, and I dipped it into some rooting hormone. After that I just planted it, and I waited 3-4 weeks like the guides say to do. It looked like it was doing well at first, but it never got any roots… I have tried this like 3 times now… failed every time.





So what am I doing wrong?

How do I grow a raspberry plant from a raspberry branch?
To propagate a raspberry plant: Take a long shoot of this years growth(as supple as possible),do not cut .Bend the cane (this should be easy as the canes would still be very soft at this time of year) to the ground ,so the part that touches the soil is 2/3 or 3/4 the way to the top of the cane. Take a knife and gently scrape the bark (just to scratch the surface) on the underside of the part that touches the soil.You bury this portion of stem with the top of the cane sticking up out of the soil.You may have to use wire to hold the stem down or keep the top up. Roots will grow where you scarred the cane (6 weeks?), with any luck.You then cut behind the roots to give you a new plant.This method is called layering if you need to look up more info.
Reply:I have never tried raspberry, but I do cuttings all the time with a bazillion things and they generally work.





There's 2 ways: soft cuttings and hard cuttings. The soft cuttings are with the new growth, green stems. Try removing all leaves except one or two, and make sure the thing doesn't dry out at all. If it works, this soft cutting way is quicker, but it doesn't always work.





The hard cuttings are with woody growth. Strip off ALL leaves in the autumn, and shove the remaining bare stems into dirt, enough to cover a couple of leaf nodes. It takes until spring, but generally in the spring new growth starts, and this way I find is more reliable.

Reply:I'd take some moss,wrap around the branch that you want grow roots on,,put it in miracle grow water,,let it there till it gets roots,,as for the leaves dropping of,,they sometimes do that for the new ones to grow,,I've done with a shrub that I wanted to root,,but instead of cutting it of completely I cut it about half way,wrap it in grass cuttings or moss,,then stick it in the ground by the plant,,but this will take awhile,,when you have roots to your liking,,cut of the limp but not roots,,,good luck
Reply:try it again but use rooting powder i have found it works best then spray some cloud cover on the cutting its will keep the moisture in. try it
