If you like the video or have any questions, leave a comment and I will try to answer as many as I can. Thanks for watching.
Hola Maestro ! Gracias por tus videos y por todo lo que nos enseñas !
¿Con este método, puedo clonar un mini kiwi o un arándano y en que temporada ?
Gracias
I live on my farm in Texas and I am trying the cloning technique on an old mulberry tree that I played under a a child. It only has one little sticker branch still living. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Good luck mate 👍
GREAT WORK.
Superb tutorial. Many thanks.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment.
Excellent video! Thank you very much.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for the comment.
I will try this on my haskap berries this spring. I'll also try to bend some of the branches on top of the mulch and place a stone on top. They seemed very eager to spread. Lovely berry, haskap. It'll be all the rage soon. Great content Sir! Much appreciated.
Great video! Thank you for sharing your propagation techniques, I've learned a lot from watching your videos!
Great to hear it! Thanks for the comment.
Hello! I love your videos, I learned a lot thanks to you! That year I grafted cherries, apples, pears, plums, peaches, apricots, and most of them started, so this year I was even able to try plums) I want to have more pears in my garden, but I don't have a pear rootstock. Can you tell me if the rootstock of an apple tree is suitable for grafting pears on it? Thank you for your efforts!)
Very nice video sharing. ❤
Thank you.👌
Aonde tem estado....sentimos falta dos seus videos 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇨🇦🇵🇹
very good work my friend, congratulations for the videos you upload, I personally have learned a lot from you.
Thank you.
Glad to hear that! Its nice to know that my videos help in any way. Thanks for the comment.
Olá amigo. Maravilha.
Ainda bem que gostou do video. Obrigado pelo comentário.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good
Glad you liked it. Thanks for the comment.
excellente vidéo merci pour le partage marcottage du plaqueminier ou KAKI est-il possible merci
Excuse me Mr., much respect to the Awesome work You do. I have a question, would an air Layering procedure on a Lemon tree be done successfully during November in a Mediterranean type climate?
Well explained how long will it takes to bear
Boa noite, parabéns por mais um excelente vídeo. Gostaria de saber se o air layering também funciona em Abacateiros. Muito obrigado.
Sim, funciona. Dependendo das condições pode levar vários meses a desenvolver raízes.
I have learned a lot from you. Please help me. The best time for a pomegranate tree for the aerial layering process. Can you answer?
Is it good to use egg shells and coffee grounds for draining purposes when planting air layered citrus and breadfruit branches? Thanks
Do you think using a rooting hormone would make roots form faster or more reliably?
Interesant! Pentru altoire smochin, care este perioada ideala si, daca se poate, ce conditii sunt necesare? Multumesc mult!
The best time to graft fig trees is the spring when the trees start to move sap with dormant scions.
Check my many videos on grafting figs, like this one - czcams.com/video/NBV9OIfQlaY/video.html

Thanks for a great video! Does this method of growing roots work on larger main branches as well?
The larger the branch the older it is and more difficult will be for it to develop roots. This happens because the undifferentiated cells that turn into roots are less and less, in proportion to the older tissues, as the branch gets older. However, with the right conditions, its possible in some fruit types - I have done it in 4-5 years old, larger diameter branches, but it takes much longer and requires the use of rooting hormones. Nevertheless, its best to use younger branches, 1-2 years old, whenever possible.
@@JSacadura what other characteristics should the chosen branch have? thanks
@@JSacaduraThank you...
Not many. Any young branch of the right diameter will do. Avoid branches that are too thin, unless you support them during the air layer, or they might break with the wind (the air layer is a weak point). Its also best to choose a well positioned branch, easy to air layer and that doesn't affect the mother tree's shape when removed. One of the options is air layering a watersprout since these are young, vigorous, vertical growing branches that are usually removed anyway, so they don't compete with the fruit bearing branches.
Can we do this in any season or is there a season this is the most effective in?
Also, I have a tree that I think is on it's way out and looks like it is dying, can I try to clone it before it dies?
How well do citrus grow on their own roots instead of a grafted rootstock? Im curious because all of mine are grafted. Im new to growing citrus.
It really depends on the varieties and the zone. In my area, Lemon trees, particularly the older varieties, are often grown in their own roots. The trees take more time to grow and start producing but they live longer. The older growers often say that some citrus taste better when grown on their own roots, without the rootstock interference. The trees also tend to be healthier and bigger (there is always some degree of incompatibility when grafting a variety to a rootstock). However, a grafted tree will be more manageable (less pruning required to maintain it a certain size). In colder areas it's often a good idea to graft them in rootstocks that are a bit more resistant to cold, etc. There are advantages and disadvantages in both approaches. Commercially, grafted trees are the way to go. To the enthusiast, some varieties grown on their own roots can be interesting. Thanks for the comment.
@@JSacadura Thank you very much for the detailed explanation!!!
It definitely depends on the zone. Rootstocks survive in certain cold better than others. And if the root doesnt survive, the tree wont, but grafts with hardy rootstock tend to survive a zone colder than their native roots do.
If your air layered trees arent surviving beside the mother plant, then the mother is grafted to hardy woodstock, and you shouldnt air layer, but rather graft to hardy woodstock for your zone.
Bien explicado, como siempre
How often do you have to water your substrate?
In most cases you don't need to water the air layering medium. The plastic film maintains all the moisture that is needed to start the root development. If you are air layering in the summer or the air layers are more than 3 months old you can open the container and water lightly. It should only be required once, as I did in the lemon tree example. In the fig example no watering was needed.
Can ai yose composot only
Roots may not develop well if you use only compost, even if it's fully cured. It's usually better to use a light soil mix.
He intentado el acodo aereo en un árbol de kaqui y no ha dado resultado. Tambien he puesto varias veces trozos de ramas en tierra y tampoco ha enrraizado. Podrias decirme el motivo. Gracias por sus enseñanzas. Saludos desde Extremadura
Persimmons do not airlayer and grow from cuttings.
I like watching you use a Swiss Army knife to do your work.
I wonder though, how often do you sharpen it?
It must be a weekly practice.
Not at all. It keeps sharp enough on regular use. Last sharpening was a couple of months ago. It only needs more frequent sharpening if you are doing many grafts a day (usually during spring).
Lol, youre right... soft branches are not enough to dull good steel too fast.
I always like seeing the tools that good craftsmen use in their work.
And youre an amazing craftsman, who knows what tools work best, and you skillfully use them well.
Youre doing a good service providing us your skill and knowledge. Good show my brother.
Jsacadura do you know how to air layer a mango tree?
What abput roses? Apple trees?
You can propagate roses using the same technique. You can also do it with apples but I prefer to graft a good eating variety to a robust rootstock (you can buy one or grow one from seeds), as this tree will grow much better (the good eating varieties don't grow very well on their own roots).
Bonjour pourquoi gratter le bois ???
What about cloning olive tree by air layerig method?
No Problem. The technique is the same.
Bom dia
Gosto muito dos seus vídeos! Estaria interessado em trocar garfos? Obrigado
Hace tres años realice un acodo aéreo a limonero. Hace un año lo pasé a tierra. Este invierno parecia muerto sin hojas y la corteza comenzó a abrise secandose. En la primavera comenzó a brotar. Puede morir?? Es alguna enfermedad. Como prevención le reliace un vendaje a las partes de corteza reseca y abiertas. Ahora se está poblando de nuevas hojas
Si, puede ser una enfermedad (como la gomosis que es provocada por hongos). En algunas zonas es mejor injertar los cítricos en un porta injerto más resistente en vez de plantarlos en sus proprias raízes ya que las enfermedades son más frequentes. Puedes pesquisar por enfermedades provocadas por hongos e intentar un fungicida, se es el caso.
@@JSacadura muchas gracias por su respuesta!! Ecxelentes videos!!!
No rooting hormones?
I haven't used any rooting hormones. You can use them if you want, as they will accelerate the root development.
Olá amigo! Podes me informar qual a melhor estação para fazer esta técnica? Ah, e também, se falhar, o galho morre? Obrigado desde já, Deus esteja contigo.
Neste exemplo comecei a alporquia no final do inverno para que as raízes se pudessem desenvolver durante a primavera e o verão. O ideal é escolher um período em que a planta tenha boas condições de crescimento e evitar períodos desfavoráveis em que as plantas reduzem esse crescimento (outono, inverno, no meu caso). Se a alporquia falhar porque o ramo conseguiu regenerar a zona removida, tudo volta ao normal e o ramo sobrevive. Se não ocorrer desenvolvimento de raízes e a zona de casca removida continuar a impedir a comunicação da seiva açucarada, o ramo geralmente morre.
@@JSacadura Muito obrigado!
@@JSacadura Olá novamente, volto aqui apenas para agradecer. Tentei a técnica no mesmo dia em que fiz o comentário, e mais recentemente (há cerca de dois meses) obtive êxito em clonar uma muda de limão-bergamota (Citrus limonia). Muito obrigado, novamente!
What zone are you in?
Zone 9a - Portugal
Buen dia. He aprendido muchisimo con usted. Podria clonar una planta ornamental: POLISCIA con acodo aereo? No consigo enraizar esquejes. Gracias desde Pontevedra. España.
Will air layering be as successful with bushes, such as blueberry?
Yes, it will. The technique is the same and the time for root development will be 3 -4 months in most cases.
Olá. Excelentes vídeos! Estou interessado em obter diferentes variedades de figueiras e já vi que costuma multiplicá-las por estaquia. Onde vende? No OLX?@@JSacadura
