I think you'll find a suggestion regarding your airlayer - and a few other suggestions - in the following archieved thread.

Next it is a bit late to do a layer on a tree in Buffalo, NY. You can gather your info, check your positions and do it next year, sometime after the trees leaves are in and harden off. Most deciduous trees need 2-3 months to do a layer... this would bring you to the month of November.... not a good time to seperate a layer in Buffalo. You may want to think about altering your 'user cp' profile so as to get the info of where you are etc to show each time you post. Also the weather... your geographic location and the type of tree DO MATTER in mostly all questions Jay NOTE____ my post crossed with OMC's.. his suggestion to check the link to another thread is excellent. __________________ A Bonsai student living with his trees at N 44.37 W 77.49...
