does it work on tree cuttings??

Tried this product on about two dozen blackberry bush cuttings and none of them made it. From what I understand, it should work on trees if you take a green growing tip, but apparently the rooting process is pretty sensitive to a variety of conditions including temperature, humidity, sunlight and soil/medium type. Warm, humid, partial sunlight and a sterile/inert medium is supposed to work. One person I found puts her cuttings under the exhaust vent of her clothes dryer and that works for her. Another fellow had a little more complicated misting system set up from pvc pipe and nozzles that worked for him. What I do know is that dipping a cutting, sticking it in a pot with some potting soil on a shaded back porch and watering daily doesn't work - or at least it didn't work for me. Hope you have better luck.

It depends on your cut, and make sure its not that thick in diameter.8 inches long, diameter should no thicker than a pencil.

No I have not used this on cherry trees. I would suggest calling the manufacture for information on this product for your particular type tree. I used it on a Bashovia shade tree in Florida and it did work on it.

I don't know. I bought it to use on apple trees, but I have not used it yet.

It does work for all trees, as I placed mine on an artificial tree. The piece is in fact 3D.... just small!

No, unfortunetly. It will work on anything with a straight blade (hand pruners, pruning shears, old fashioned hand hedge trimmers, and even a knife) but it is not intended to sharpen anything with a serrated edge (example-any sort of saw with teeth)

It works for older trees. I'm not sure about new ones. Something's have a different connector.

Depends on the height of the grass and the type of leaves. Works on two inch grass cuttings and Black Locust leaves. Not great on oak or maple leaves.

Could cut down various sized tree. It is sharp. Depends upon the amount of physical force applied and angle used. Not designed as an axe but if given a choice I would choose this tool due to the multiple uses.

I have used it on both dogwood and cherry trees. Not a huge difference this year but look forward to seeing if better this spring as I had not fed them in a long time!

I do not think this saw would do a quick and satisfactory job on branches 3" to 5" thick. I've used it on 3" branches several times but think it's use is more applicable in the 1 to 2 1/2" diameter branches. Consider using a chain saw for speed and ease of cut on your branches. Note: an electric chain saw will cut your branches quite well.

Yes, I've read that it works, but ONLY on a LIVING, FRESHLY CUT stump. I remember reading someone else's post that, if you want to kill the stump, you need to apply this weed killer to the stump immediately after cutting the plant/bush/tree. If you wait too long, the plant forms a 'scab' (I don't remember the correct term) and then the weed killer will NO LONGER work. Depending on the size of the stump, you could apply the weed killer with a cotton swab, a foam brush or a bristle brush. You just have to apply it promptly! If the stump is still alive - and it hasn't 'scabbed over', yet - then the stump should suck the weed killer down to the roots, killing the stump.

Seems to. We used it on apples from our own trees - all different shapes and sizes. I'm still amazed!

Yes it does, it works great on smaller trees but it is not long enough for the larger trees I use a ratchet strap on the larger trees l, I also use a cable lock i hope this helps you.

It should. I have used it on numerous citrus, stone fruits, vines and shrubs with success. Try taking spring/summer semi hardwood cuttings and fall/winter hardwood cuttings. The ambient temperature, bottom heat, light spurce, moisture levels and growing media are really key in propagation.

Hello Susan,I would not recommend this tool for that type of tree. That tree is more of a hedge than a typical tree with large limbs. There is also a correct way to prune this type of tree and you should follow that procedure in order to continue to enjoy the beauty and benefits of the tree. I included a website underneath for you. I hope this helps.http://extension.unh.edu/resources/files/Resource000594_Rep616.pdfregardsfrank

yes. I use it on all sorts of hedges (boxwood, privet, yew, juniper) and privet should be fine as long as the branches are not larger than your finger.

The branches on my shrub are about 1/4 to 1/3 inch in diameter, which it cuts with no problem. It will certainly cut larger branches, but not with the same efficiency or ease.
