Air layering - success

Great job, super inspiring, there enough root mass there to support all that top growth, or have you had to cut it back a little since?

So far so good. The two I have done looked healthy after a day. I will update how they fared over the weekend tomorrow

I do just cut the tips back a little to avoid putting too much stress on the cutting while it gets transplanted into a pot.

Am I wrong in thinking this is a much faster way to clone vs. cuttings?

I would have to try it a few more way. So far it feels about the same…maybe a bit slower. But if I scraped a bit or used some rooting solution it might be way faster. The big positive I see (imho) is that there is less risk of losing a clone. I bet it would work really well with hard to clone varieties.

Everyone looks happy and healthy. No drooping or overt signs of stress. We will see how long it takes for them to really start growing.
