My air layers I did in the spring did great on the JM. I made the chop last week as their were tons of roots and planted them in 2 gal. pots. But since you have a repot scenario in the late summer, they won't have a lot of time to get fully established for me to bury the pots and mulch them over for winter. So should I just plan to protect them from the frosts and snow of winter or will they survive if I bury them?
The red maple air layers aren't doing so well. I don't even see any new roots yet but the branches are thriving. So I'm going to have to leave the air layers on even longer and prob. due a late fall chop and pot (if I get roots at all that is). So the same issue arises, winter protection?
(Thanks. This is my first air layers and I've been enthralled watching the new roots grow. It's one thing to read about it, and see pictures, its another thing to actually witness it. Very very cool!)
Edit: Sorry, I didn't see a section that deals with layering. Admin, can you move this to that section?
