Another great video, thanks!. I tried to air layer my JM in March in Northern California using sphagnum moss and after 2 months the air layers broke off. Could it be a) I did it too early in the season ( I waited for new growth to happen), b) I put too much water in the moss or c) I used to much spaghnum moss resulting in the air layer being too heavy and thus causing it to break off? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
@MomijiEn3 жыл бұрын
It happened to me before. In my case, the cause was a mix of (c) above and the air layered branch was too thin after removing the bark. The good timing is either super early winter or mid spring (early May).
