Comments (6)Yes, you have it. Ground or mound layering and stooling are very effective propagation techniques. They require a little more effort than cuttings, but as hobbyists we usually don't worry about that so much when the technique is sure to yield a higher % of successes. Besides, I'm thinking you want to take advantage of anything that moves you closer to a sure thing, and an established root system w/o having to wound, (as is the norm in air layering) goes a long way toward reducing the stress of separation. Since you understand dedifferentiation and redifferentiation, you'll appreciate it's likely that tissues in the old stem will reorganize into a new apical meristem after separation & you'll end up with a twofer out of the deal. Here is a tree that had a trunk too tall for good bonsai. I'm shortening it by several inches, using a ground-layering technique: I cut a hole a little bigger than the trunk, then made a vertical slit up the sidewall, and then continued it across the bottom to the hole. I applied a tourniquet on the trunk (you won't need one because of the preformed adventitious roots), slipped the split pot over the trunk from the side, taped it back together, filled it with soil, and kept it moist.

Comments (4)We watch it and really enjoy it. I was afraid that it had been cancelled because it was so long between seasons. I see that they changed the name this season. Last season I think it was just The Exterminators. I think he is funny and he really seems educated about the different animals that he catches....See MoreWho do you think is the most handsome man
Comments (106)How could I forget country singer, Josh Turner? He was co-host in the last hour of the Today Show this morning...I'm so glad I saw it. Not only is he easy on the eyes, but he also has such a strong bass singing voice and his deep speaking voice is beyond charming. :)...See MoreTV commercials that you really dislike
Comments (67)I agree with Alisande and others on the car commercials, seeming to promote racing / speeding, what a message to send! :( Personally I can't stand the Progressive commercials; I find them highly annoying, and it's really time for an update. All the white, Flo's make-up, and it's not funny or entertaining at all. Just get them out of here! I do love the Bud commercials. There was especially one (maybe it was for Coke, ha!) during Super Bowl a few years back, where these guys on the road notice a truck that had accidentally left a side door open. They're reaching, trying to get closer, looking like they're trying to grab from the truck. Instead, as the one guy finally gets close enough, he pulls the door shut! Helpful citizen, that's great! Regarding pharmaceutical commercials, on one hand I wish they weren't legal and on the other I think they are useful in informing people that there are actually real, very serious side effects connected to some of them. And I'm not against (legal) drugs, but I'm cautious. But one time I literally thought one commercial was a comedy-show parody and not for real (I came into the room while hubby was watching, didn't know it was a commercial break). The list of side effects was so horrific I thought it was funny, thinking *they* (the comedians) really got the point across well. "If you have anxiety, would you not rather be deeply depressed and suicidal, and most likely dead before the week is over???" Then it turned out to be a real commercial for a real drug! I have a hard time understanding why anyone, after hearing that list, would want to even entertain the thought of using that specific drug. It was so over the line I can't believe this drug ever was approved, but that's a different topic. It was just jaw dropping, though....See Moresocks
