No, not that kind. I live in a 'dry' state still. I'm talking about sprouts on my first air layer attempt. I decided to try it on an apple tree from my back yard. I girdled a select branch in the spring but by late summer it had only produced a bunch of root nodes, no actual roots. However the leaves and next year's buds were supple. After about a month with root hormone and in a protected warm spot, still no roots. I figured, what the heck, and instead of tossing it out I'd put it under the lights with the non cold hardy trees. The perlite in the old pot was stinky and green. I rinsed the root nubs and put it in a new plastic pot with sphagnum, wet the moss, and covered the pot with plastic wrap.
After about 2 weeks inside, I'm getting fresh healthy shoots popping in several spots!
