I purchased the air pods - a year later I’ve had no success with them. Time to try the plastic bags I think. You’re right about the moss drying out inside the pods & having to keep it watered.
After reading your comment section, im going to return to keep watering the air layers lol
Wild moss and the root ball cover is exactly the method i used and i have no idea too 😂 im so excited to see the results in a couple of months ☺
Nice video! Do you have an updated results for these tests?
I have a second video showing what happened. After 7 weeks I didn't see any roots on either the plastic-wrapped or airpod branches, but I did have lots of little white bumps that are the beginning of roots (I was too impatient to wait any longer). I potted the white-spotted branches and did see success with both of them rooting. They did will for a few months and continued forming new buds, but the temperature rose and I watered irregularly so they didn't thrive, but I feel like they would have done well if I'd been more diligent. I will be trying again after our weather cools and I'll just use the plastic wrap because that seems to hold the moisture better.
@@masterofnone7243 Thanks for the quick reply! I'll take a look.
Very nice video I have one question have you tried this in the winter time I live in Virginia and we do have freezing weather in the winter time, my concern is freezing.
Sorry for the late response. No I have not tried this in the winter. I live in southern California. I rarely reach freezing temperature where I live. You should try it using heating mat.

@@masterofnone7243 thanks for the link but my tree is a little too far for that I have a dog on a invisible fence and he probably fry himself.
Great idea on the bagging! While I too purchased the air pods, I am more excited about the bags. Could you return with results? I am headed out to air pod my Nellie Stevens Hollies. Full sun? Partial? Or shade? I have no idea which to choose. But want them easy to visually inspect. Thanks for the bag idea! Going to also try water bottles and easter eggs. : )
