3:41Plastic cups hold moist cocopeat around prepared guava branches, with black wrapping enclosing each setup.
8:05A check after 45 days reveals rooted branches ready to separate and pot.
10:44The gardener removes bark and scrapes away remaining cambium to discourage the wound from healing over.
18:22After a month, the cotton-rope setup shows longer, denser roots than the jute setup in this demonstration.
20:24The newly separated branches are planted upright in well-draining soil and watered thoroughly.
27:44Another method uses drilled cross-holes, followed by aloe vera gel and a cup of moist growing medium.

Clear plastic cups become little growing containers halfway up guava branches in Shafikul Garden's tutorial. Filled with cocopeat and wrapped to hold moisture, they let roots develop while the branches remain attached to the tree.

The upload drew roughly 129,000 views in its estimated first day, more than twenty times the channel's usual start for longer videos. Guava is familiar territory here: a leaf-propagation tutorial from 2022 remains Shafikul Garden's most-watched regular upload.

This session puts the preparation under a closer lens. In a comparison using jute and cotton rope, the gardener strips away bark, then scrapes the exposed section. The narrator explains why: "Removing the outer bark alone is not enough, because a thin green cambium layer may remain on the exposed wood."

The aim is to encourage rooting rather than let the bark heal over. The prepared sections are coated with turmeric powder, wrapped in rope, moistened and enclosed in black plastic. A later check shows denser roots on the cotton-wrapped branch in this demonstration.

Despite the title's promise of speed, this is gardening on a plant's timetable. The results shown follow waits of a month or longer, and the description notes that weather, branch choice and growing conditions affect success. Once roots have formed, the gardener cuts below them and transfers the new plants into pots with well-draining soil.
