Air Layering Bonsai Tutorial EASY!

[@randomwalk4708]

My man giving you tips very detailed while he's pruning so fast, works like multi core processor.

[@ebenoid6643]

Yea but he takes small twigs sometimes too!🤣 it’s ok to put it through a simulated thunderstorm to strengthen the tree I guess. I’m about to try this method on my Japanese maple that’s about 8 ft tall

[@studentofthearts]

As a newbie to bonsai, this video has created extreme excitement for me.

[@ErosiumTV]

Best video on youtube for air layering in my opinion.

[@bobbrawley4544]

ErosiumTR well you ain't looked hard enough. It's a good video on air layering. And Chan certainly. Knows how to airlayer successfully But a best airlayer video I need to know what the climate at his location is. I need to know what time in the growing season airlayer can achieve best success for Chan. Possible for him all summer long . Chan didn't show us how wet the saghum moss was before adding it to the sealed plastic envelop. The cambium later is not just the green later that is removed with the peeled bark but the slippery white wood has to be removed as well. . I do appreciats his demonstration of the open pots containing successful airlayer For a best video on KZbin other techniques need to be addressed like "open pots " air layering that should be watered daily. The addition of Vitamin B1 and Amino acids to assured success in air layering. For a best video on KZbin of air layering a technique of air layering a servered branch . The cutting is placed in a water container the airlayer surgery is above the water the root growing zone is isolated in it's own container like a open pots or sealed bag and the leafing plant is exposed above the air layer. In short there is no best video on airlayer in because Chan's environment and special experience is not obvious to the hobbist like my self . An accumulation of many airlayer videos in English, Urdu. Vietnamese, Spanish and Italian is necessary to complete the picture

Do we have to water the air layering moss after doing it

[@lefthandluke8923]

@@sonasood1752 As I understand it, you keep the package sealed. No need to add additional water.

@@barisaslan1867 The practice varies from climate to climate, but in many places, if it gets too wet, the roots can rot. You definitely don't want it to dry out, of course.

Hi Peter, Thank you for this video. With so much confidence after watching your video, I showed my teenager how to air layer a branch from a "waterfall maple" today. I was pruning it and I didn't want to waste it. It is an experiment. I have a few different ones in my garden that I will air layer. Thank so much for being so inspiring and for sharing your wonderful knowledge with us.:)

Thank you so much! I have a huge Bloodgood in my front garden and she has to come down because she is pushing the wall out sadly. I tried taking cuttings and they failed, this will be my last shot at saving her, she is beautifully healthy and about 20 years old and I don't want to kill her, so if I can do this I can transplant an air layered section to my mums garden and hopefully get a bonsai from her. This will also mean I can get an air layer from a smaller red maple my mum has. I adore my maples, I've grown them from about 12" high. Thank you so much for your wonderful videos! x

Mr. Chan. Thank you for your great contributions. I stared bonsai a year ago. Today I air layered three maples. Wish me luck.

[@samhoskins8706]

Good luck.

[@LSandLM]

Thank you! I have a Japanese Maple var. Crimson Queen that is grafted to other stock and as a Bonsai (in training) it is unattractive as the base stock grows faster than the upper part. I am considering air layering the top of the tree to see if I can get a better looking tree in the end. But this will cut the length of the trunk in half and I'll have a very odd looking tree until it can be reshaped over the years.

[@clairedurkan9974]

Brilliant video - easy to follow and well delivered. Thank you.

[@iolio1]

Fantastic Tutorial

[@gianlucacoraggio4357]

I love how you show "How is done" without no fancy things going on. Just a question, there is some particular period of the year, when is best to air layering or doesn't matter? Thanks

[@HeronsBonsaiUK]

There isn’t a set time for air layering trees although typically it will be done in spring or early summer. This will give the air layerings there best chance of growth before the parent tree becomes dormant in the autumn. The important thing is to ensure that the parent tree is in good health and vigorous. Air layering an ailing tree will just stress the tree further and in extreme circumstances result in die back or even death of the parent tree.

Hello Peter, thank you for generously sharing this wonderful knowledge of air layering! I have a lot of moss growing in my garden so I was wondering if I can use them directly or do I need to dry them in the oven first to remove the insects?

[@justrosie]

So glad you mentioned the pines… I figured not all species could be air layered, sad to hear my 4 ft P. nigra is hopeless!

[@19Meikel62]

Oh hello and thank you for this video…I need a tip from the expert. In my garden I have mossed off some branches of a maple planted in the ground about 5 m high. In November I can still separate them from the mother plant although there are no leaves or should I wait until spring buds, many thanks, Michael

I want to try with olive and ficus (ficus carica). But I'm watching lots of videos about air layering and all of them put ormons on the "nude" part, not on the bark before. Of course, I'll follow that video, I just wonder how so many gardeners make it in the wrong way O_o

Hi Herons Bosai, i love your videos and love the little trees and bonsai you craft. i have a question which i would like some help with please. i have a large Acer bloodgood very strong about 25 years old but it has a very strong lower branch which has become a nuisence. is it pssible to air layer this lower branch and what time of year is the best time to do this. Kind regards and stay safe. Rob

[@tedkell92]

Do you remove the bark completely around the trunk? Is there any route for water to the top other than the moss? Would it make sense to take, say, 3/4 of the bark around the trunk and leave the rest in? Thank you for your videos and help.

That's great job Sir

[@MrNomads]

[@tomtom7963]

Hello Mr. Chan: for how long you keep the new tree soaking in the water ? Do you keep it in there for weeks or months until the root system us fully developed ? Thank you, HM

[@rowshane47]

Based on what I know, after cutting it, 5 to 10 minutes and then let it sit for 2 days.

[@Justamanonamission77]

I just love Peter Chan! Such a good instructor and he explains the process well. One question though...so we have to keep wetting the moss over the 6-8 week period? Thank you!

[@bobbrawley4544]

Josh Pickles Good question . Apparently not since the bag of saghum moss is sealed. But I'm guessing.

[@peterchan3100]

No need to wet the moss if you use plastic as the plastic keeps the moisture in

Hi Peter Watched the video today, plus those on pruning pines. Found them very informative and dispelled some of the worries I had about pruning pines.

Thanks for your video, never tried this before but will be doing this year, am I right to assume that it's ideal to take the air layer from a place in which the existing tree will keep its profile and once cut off should have cut paste put on?
