Dear friends,
I would like to ask your valuable help! I have made some air layers since last February 2010 which I have cut last October 2010. These are a prunus (which had formed enough white hairy roots) and a punica granatum (which had formed quite a little hairy roots). I have potted them after cutting and have put the pots into black plastic bags. They both have sprouted some tiny buds and some leaves. So today I shifted from black bag to transparent bag so that the leaves take the light needed. Did I do correctly? Thank you for your responses.

Dear friends,
Here is some question for you concerning these airlayers of mine ![]() Well, both prunus and pomegranate have new branchlets with new soft leaves. I would like to repot them into a suitable training pot with the suitable substrate but I am not sure whether it is OK to do it since there are new shoots evolving. I would like to have your recommendations (... and I promise to upload their photos soon) Thank you! ![]()

If you don't touch roots, it's OK.

Of course I will let the layers to grow out free in order to obtain the maximum possible of roots.
I would like to make out of them small bonsai of about 20 cm. The length of branch of prunus and pomegranate as well is now about 32 cm. That lower branch of prunus will be cut back later, I just have kept it for reason of better securing the air-layer to the pot. Unfortunately, as it usually happens, the new shoots are not at the place where I would like them to be. So, what is your advice... should I cut the air-layers to 20 cm. now? Or what should I do about it? Thank you! Thank you! Thank you once again!
