How to Make $500 Dollars an Hour with Trees | Sell Plants for Profit

Exactly what I'm doing! My retirement nursery is growing every year. I have 3000 plants after 3 years. Great video, Mike! 💜

I live next to a Christmas tree farm. I hike through the trees on my daily walk. I was horrified to see the person who leases this land had begun whacking down Doug fir seedlings as if they were weeds. I immediately began digging the seedlings up every evening and planting them on our newly logged property.

I had a neighbor years ago that made a good living growing Japanese maple saplings from seeds in his large back yard. They sold like hotcakes for $25 each as 1 year and $40 at 2 years.

I love how the entire family got involved. Even THE CAT helped out!

Mike, I love your family-friendly videos. They bring enthusiasm and positivity to a less-settled world. Thank you! I hope your family has a great weekend. ~Margie

Everybody loves Mike. 😆😁 I love the way he explains things little by little. Big blessing to you and your family.

Thanks Mike. I will not be critical of all the obstacles but thankful for all the potential. Those who find opportunities will always be successful.

MIke! Every time I watch your videos I get the itch to start my own plants! Thanks brother! Just ordered Japanese maples and getting them potted

I am so excited for you! It’s nothing like finding a deal and a home for new plants, flowers, trees etc. This is a great investment too.

Daggum!! Great score, Mike. Love your entrepreneurial mindset, brother. Thank you for laying out how simple the process can be. If you’re willing to add 1-2 years to the process, do the same from seed and double those profits! I appreciate how the family is getting more involved in your videos. That aspect adds so much to your channel. As if the knowledge, hope, enthusiasm, and laughs weren’t enough, you went and made it wholesome family entertainment as well.

Hi Mike, I love your videos always inspiring me. I have wanted to sell plants but really didn't quite know the what and the how! I know that it could work well for me here in Australia it's a matter of working out what plants people are gravitating towards, I have noticed a shift from traditional plants to low maintenance and fast growing. Absolutely loved the whole family getting in and helping, warmed the cockles of my ❤ heart. I love plants and gardening and just want to bless people with plants that aren't as expensive as in nurseries. I really appreciate all your videos.

for the first time in many year last year we went out and cut our own Christmas tree .. as the holiday ended I felt so bad to have killed that beautiful tree for only 1 month of enjoyment.. WELL...I found out you can propagate them.. so I took a few good cuttings and planted them in good soil .. and now I have 2 baby Pine (fur) trees.. I will be trying to keep 1 in a pot I can bring in for Christmas every yr till it gets to big .. 🌲🌲🌲🌲

you have so much energy, how have you not been approached for your own network show. you seem like a natural!!

Love to see you back on line more. You have such good information on horticulture. You really made a great find. I'm in MN and we can get trees through our county soil and water commission, (much smaller plants, and higher price) but you can not re-sell them by law, so no gains here. Lucky you!

Remind me of when I worked at a nursery. Ill be doing this as a small (very small) business plan with regards to fruit trees.

I saw an awesome use for Leyland, they were grown to full size then cut off about 6 ft tall and all branches cut off. It made perfect and beautiful fence posts! If you could do a line along a long border, you could make a showcase fence in about 10-15 years (they grow pretty fast).

Baaaargain! Good score, Mike. If later you decide to sell them, you could always make more plants from your existing trees to plant out on your property.

Another awesome video Mike! I'm planning to grow/sell my own Japanese Maples. After watching your videos on growing those red JM it has inspired me to do the same! I have 100+ seeds stratify in the fridge currently and will start growing them this spring! Can't wait!

Thank you for having such a strong dedication to life. I love it.

I live in a development and I first started to notice a few evergreen type of saplings growing around my pool. And around the back of my house. I started digging them up and potting them. Going to plant them soon so excited. Looking forward to seeing how yours turn out🙌🏻
