Soooo…. I bought a sphagnum moss… I thought to try the air layering. I went to the Croton Encyclopedia AIR LAYERING TUTORIAL and found…nothing. Can somebody explain me what is going on?
And if you Search "Air Layering" in this forum, you will see some other references to it. It looks to me as if there were some attempts to get a tutorial going that never got traction.
I think it would still be a good idea if someone wants to take it on as a project.
Thank you, Dean. I have to search the forum more. …but it is much easier to google. I found everything I need. Air layering was easy. I can take it on as a project for the Encyclopedia. There are a lot of articles missing in the Encyclopedia that a general public (like me) would love to read....
I have a Word file for each of my plants...and now for my every croton. I can publish a book one day
BTW, I decided to skip the air layering. Too much work for me. I just trim, stick the cuttings in the water and forget about them. Some die, some root. Of course, I am not talking about the precious rare crotons…but a “general public” doesn't care about them either…
WOW!...Actually, I didn’t need any pictures when I read about the air layering online… It seemed so easy…except that plastic bag over the plant , which may not fit
…but the flaws in the descriptions never stopped me from being successful . I thought I would use the plastic food wrap
