Excellent job, in my decades long association with tress and dozens if not hundreds of attempts to air layer, I've yet to have a success. It's nice to see that the process is not just a myth 😂😂😂
Thanks for the long term development videos Jelle! I just attempted my first air layer with middling success. Got a few roots but also a partial callous bridge because I left too much cambium in. It’s very hard to judge how much to take off! This is the first time I’ve heard of letting the area dry a little before wrapping with plastic.
I sometimes think of air layering as a preparation for growing a cutting. Instead of thinking of cuttings and air layers as distinct techniques I think of it more like a spectrum. Managing foliage at time of separation seems to help. The one tree I could not get to grow roots via air layer was my ilex serrata. I don’t know why it failed but I will take the top off as a cutting while dormant before bud break in the spring and see how it goes. Keep up the good work!!! Mats
To me they are fundamentally different, in that a layer is provided with water and nutrients for the duration of the rooting process, whereas a cutting needs to survive on whats there at the time of separation.
Hoi Jelle, volgens mij gebruik jij ook pumice in je mengsel. Ik heb grote cementbakken met grote dikke prebonsai. Is pumice ergens relatief goedkoop in grote zakken verkrijgbaar? Bedankt!
I just thumbs up your videos before they actually start because I know they’ll be great. Have a nice evening!
You're the best!

Wo, any idea why you were unsuccesfull?
@@GrowingBonsai Not a clue, lol . I don't waste my time with it any more, just stick to cuttings
That all seemed to work out ok! Thanks for the lessons!
:) Thanks so much. The layer is all happy, turning color for winter!

Normally the back and wood are very different in hardness. You do not need to get the wood off, just scratch it so you get the living cells off.
Bagus sekali dan sangat inspiratif
😄
Not bad result and the water treatment definitely helps to encourage roots. Cheers
Yeah, was happy with that!
Excellent as always Jelle. Thanks for sharing 👍
My pleasure!
Job well done 👍 thanks
So nice of you

Vraiment très intéressant! Merci pour la vidéo!
Thank you!
Goeie leerzame leuke video.
Blij dat het bevalt!
Interesting that many ppl like yourself say to remove the cambian layer while others say not to remove it. Both seem to work though.
leaving the cambium is a risk. Those are the cells that are able to restore the bark. I cannot imagine why someone would recommend to not remove it.

Thanks for the reply. It's very interesting topic. Is something I definitely need more practice and experience with.
Have a go and try!

Bonsai Dusseldorf heeft het redelijk betaalbaar. En de website vulcastrat, zeg ik uit mijn hoofd.
Hi Jelle, could provide a link, whree you purchase the tall ziploc bags you use for cuttings? Can't seem to find the correct shape/size bags. Thanks
Not sure. Some amaz0n product?

:D

Warum so ein langer gerader Stamm , soll er ein Hochstamm werden ?
I ask my self the same question. Maybe we will see next year 🤷♂️
Aim is to develop a tradional broome zelkova. That requires a straight trunk. It will be left to grow out for a few years to fatten up though.
What substrate exactly did you use for the layer Jelle...?
to be honest, I do not recall. Normally I just use my regular substrate th-cam.com/video/i1zof0uTyW0/w-d-xo.html
