Two Air layers Seperated Today

I separated Nero600m and Abicou from the mother plants today. They were started on 7-29-13 using
a Rooter Pot and the Q Plug. I covered the entire pot with aluminum foil but I already some root rot on the Nero600m but I still think it will be just fine.

Hey Mike

Thanks for the update and photos. looks great, plenty of roots for sure. In addition to the Q plug, what other growing medium did you use? sphagnum or peat or soil? Also, did you constantly add water? Or what do you think caused the root rot? I have a few air layers going in the RooterPot, no Q plug, and curious how often to add water. Thanks!

Nice looking roots there Mike.

Wow, you guys are all getting great results with the airlayers. Hopefully, mine will wake up someday.

Mark, I did not use anything other than the Q Plug. If fills the Rooter Pot completely, and snug. I did a couple using Root Riot Cubes and did
add some UPM to fill the cup. I never added any water after the initial moistening of the soil. It received more than necessary from all
the rain we have had. I covered the Nero600m with foil but it had already had too much water, hence the rot. I personally only want
mine to stay damp not wet. Without all the rain, I may have shot some every week or every other week with the hpyo needle.

Mike, thanks. I'm not familiar with the Q Plug, i guess i was thinking of the root riot cubes. I'm thinking maybe i should cover mine more. Tks!

I get my Q Plugs at    Kinsmangarden.com

Looking NICE!

Way to a go Mike! I like it!
