The best free method to multiply and clone woody plants.
I show one of the best and easiest ways to air layer citrus.
Materials and products for air layering:
To make our lemon tree air layers, we have reused materials and products that we already had at home, anyway, here is a list of the main ones in case you do not have any of them and want to buy them:
🟢 Tin welder:
👉 amzn.to/3N6KwI4
🟢 Rooting hormones:
👉 amzn.to/43EyFrT
🟢 Grafting blade:
👉 amzn.to/42DXZNh
🟢 Pruning shears:
👉 amzn.to/3PdQTMq
🟢 Layering balls:
👉 amzn.to/3X8EgnR
🟢 Small pots:
👉 amzn.to/3N52rPr
🟢 Quality substrate:
👉 amzn.to/467Gwj9
🟢 Fish mix:
👉 amzn.to/3X3szPn
Today there are a wide variety of videos showing all kinds of ways to layer and cut any type of plant for its multiplication or cloning at little cost. That is why here I show you our most effective, fastest and practically free way of doing it, since for this we reuse materials that anyone can have at home. Reusing everything we can is essential!
In case you still did not know and at this point, I can tell you that an air layering is a form or manual alternative to the sexual and natural reproduction of plants, rather it would be a totally asexual reproduction and forced by the hand of man.
To force this type of reproduction, the method is very simple, you just have to make a cut in the bark of the branch to be layered until you reach the cambium (the white part behind the first layer of skin) and provide it with the ideal conditions that would have if it were planted directly in the ground.
That is to say, moist soil or substrate and an optimal temperature (the best time to layer is in Spring-Summer) with a small plus of rooting hormones in Clonex gel, in this way we will be able to make the plant develop roots right around that area.
A somewhat slow process that can take a few months, depending mainly on the vigor of the tree, shrub or plant, but which, nevertheless, is a way to achieve a plant with identical characteristics to the original.
Preparation of 33cl water bottles for air layers:
I have to comment on this first, as it is critical. To carry out air layering and if you want to go quickly, we already have specific containers on the market that can be reused hundreds of times, such as air layering balls, which you can see in the articles above, but we, in this case concrete we have used small bottles of water.
The smallest bottles that you can find in the supermarket and that have the same capacity as a bottle of coke, being perfect for this matter.
We modify these bottles in a homemade way with the help of a soldering iron, eliminating the part of the thread and making a hole in the base of the bottle to later cut it in half with scissors from one side and cutting partially from the side opposite, so that the bottle can be opened like a book.
It is here when we will have ready the homemade containers for air layering.
Let's get down to work, the good is coming!
How to carry out an aerial layering of a lemon tree step by step:
To carry out the previously mentioned process in a lemon tree to achieve a successful lemon tree layer and identical to the original we must follow the following steps:
First of all, we must locate a sucker or sucker (vigorous and vertical branch that grows in the center of the tree), this must be at least 1 cm in diameter, being perfect between 2 and 3 cm.
Secondly, and after locating the...
