Air Layering Guide: Cloning Your Plants
Air Layering - A Guide to Cloning
If you like plants or love fruits then this is the article for you. Today we want to give you our Quick and Easy Guide to Air Layering Fruit Trees. Air Layering is a way to duplicate your favorite plants and increase the number of fruits you want by creating more of the same plant.
We, at Ricardo’s Nursery, will go through exactly how to air layer in a simple and easy to understand way. You can also watch this process on our YouTube channel @Ricardos Nursery .com
1. Use a sharp knife to cut the thin layer of skin around the branch. Remove around 2-3 fingers lengthwise of the outer bark skin layer to reveal the cambium layer. By cutting the skin from the tree we are interrupting the energy process and encouraging regrowth at the site of injury.
2. Create nutrient rich mixture for the air layer. Our secret potion is a mixture of peat moss, planting mix, and sand so we can keep the moisture locked into the air layer. Mix and create a paste out of these ingredients.
3. Wrap moist mixture around the open branch. Use the paste you created, place a large handful into a plastic sleeve or recycled plastic grocery bag to wrap it around the branch and cover the injury entirely. Major HINT: Be sure to use a lot of pressure when you are air layering!
4. Tie both ends tightly with flexible tape. Tie it up tight with green tape (which is very flexible) so that we prevent outside air from entering and keep the layer moist. This same method works for nearly all fruit trees from mangos and guavas, to peaches and avocados. This method greatly decreases the amount of time you have to wait, especially compared to if you were growing from seed.
5. When ready to plant, cut just below rooted section. How will you know when the air layer is ready to replant? You will see visible rooting. Remove the plastic sleeve and cut just below the rooted section and have all your planting materials ready. Transfer into the ground or planter quickly because you don’t want those roots to dry out. This process of developing roots usually takes around 6 months.
That is significantly faster than if you were to use a seedling, which takes nearly six months simply to germinate. If visual learning is more you style, don’t forget that you can also watch us go through this process on our YouTube channel.

I was diagnosed of HSV (Herpes) few years ago and my doctor told me there was no permanent cure for the disease. I was given medication to slow down the progress of the virus. At the initial stage it was not so bad till it progressed to a stage were i had difficulties going about my daily activities because i constantly felt pains in my penis, and around my genital were i had these blisters. I was totally devastated and i was even ashamed to complain to anyone. I saw a publication about a doctor called Dr.Water, and from what i read, he was using herbal medicines to cure illnesses like HERPES, Human papillomavirus, ALS, Diabetes, HIV, and so on. I opted to contacted him via email, after a few dicussion, i ordered for his medicine. He prepared the medicine and shipped it to me. When i received the herbal medicine, I took it according to his instructions. After using it as instructed, few weeks later i went to the hospital to have a blood test and the test came out negetive. To my greatest surprise, i was cured of this stubborn virus just by using a simple herbal product.
That is why i am here sharing my testimony as much as i can to create as much awareness as possible so that people can also benefit and be cured too. contact him for help, via his email: {DRWATERHIVCURECENTRE@GMAIL.COM} or WhatsApp (+2349050205019). this is my persona email: marianosuarezsm@gmail.com, you add me on hangout

My dad (Ernesto Bucoy) was having many health issues with one of them being, Stage 5 kidney failure. Dialysis was no longer an option but a necessity and a transplant was not just a cure but a life-saving option. At that time, Ernesto’s kidney function was at 11% and was still continuing to decrease. To explain this in terms that everyone will understand, this means your smart phone battery is on red with little battery life left and you are racing around trying to find your charger because you can’t remember where you left it last. If you keep messing around with your phone, the battery is going to continue to decrease (or die) if the charger is not found in time. This was the same scenario with my dad’s kidneys. In this case, the “charger” was a new kidney and without one, he will have to depend on a loaned “charger” called dialysis to keep his kidneys working. I went online searching for possible solutions, or even a kidney donor. We were too poor to start thinking of buying a kidney and also paying for the transplant, that was too much money already. Luckily for me, i came across a post online talking about the healing prowess of a gifted herbal healer in Africa (Dr.Water). I read through the article and saw his whatsapp number. I contacted him on whatsapp and told him about my dad’s condition, he requested for our medical reports, which I took photos of, and send to him. A week later, he (Dr.Water) sent us some herbal medicines, promising that if we use them properly, my dad will regain his health. I did as he instructed, and a few days later we noticed tremendous improvements. We finished the treatment and just like that, my dad’s kidneys were completely revived. No surgery needed, no transplant and no dialysis. My dad is now healthy and perfectly fine. I choose to share this because i know i also benefited from someone else sharing their stories too. If you have any kidney disease, Kidney failure, kidney stones, kidney infection, HIV, hepatitis, warts, herpes, diabetes, asthma or any illness, Here is the Doctor’s whatsapp number: +2349050205019. And his email DRWATERHIVCURECENTRE@GMAIL.COM. This is my own little way of helping other sick people out there. I wish you good luck.

🟨🟦🟨 I have been suffering from (HERPES) disease for the last four years and had constant pain, especially in my knees. During the first year, I had faith in God that I would be healed someday. This disease started to spread all over my body and I was been taking treatment from my family doctor. Few weeks ago, I was searching on the Internet if I could get any information concerning a better treatment to this disease. On my search, I saw a testimony of someone who has been healed of HPV (Genital Warts) by this Dr.Water and she also gave the email address of this man and advise we should contact him for any sickness, that he would be of help. So I wrote to DR.WATER telling him about my HERPES outbreaks. He told me not to worry that I was going to be cured!! hmm i never believed it. Well i followed through with the procedures and got his remedy few days later. I started experiencing changes all over me as the Doctor had promised and assured me. After some time i went to my family doctor to confirmed if I have been truly healed. Behold it was true, i was healed and no traces of the virus in my body anymore. So friends i am here to also share my story and authenticate the name DR.WATER as a genuine and confirmed healer of herpes and even other diseases like HIV, Diabetes, warts, cancer, hepatitis and others. My advice is if you have such sickness or any other illness you can email DR.WATER on Drwaterhivcurecentre@gmail.com, sir I am indeed grateful for the help I will forever recommend you to my friends!!! you can also WhatsApp him on this number +2349050205019
