You can air layer material up to 15mm in diameter.
“DynaBall” is a South African developed and manufactured solution for air layering.
Air layering is a very firmly established method of propagation where you require a genetic duplicate (or clone) of an existing plant.
The green DynaBall is UV protected, whereas the transparent ball allows for seeing the roots develop before your eyes. The hybrid DynaBall is half green and half transparent, the one half is UV protected and the other half provides a “window” to see when the roots have developed sufficiently for planting.
Great product, easy to use and proven success on using recommended method and material and of course what Bonsai is all about ...... patience for the root growth
Having never done Air layerings before I was a little hesitant to attempt it. I used the Green, Opaque Dynaball to do 6 air layers on a Ficus Microcarpa. After 33 days I removed 4 “successful” ones leaving the remaining 2 to become stronger. Two weeks later the other 2 were also strong enough to be removed. These are designed so clever … the little “funnel” made watering a breeze and I had no issues with the growing medium being washed out from the bottom funnel. Although the ones I used were “opaque” I found it easy to gauge the root development without having to frequently open the ball and disturb the fragile developing roots … as the developing ones tend to dry out much faster. Works like a “bomb” … Highly recommended!
This product makes air layering so easy, and the clear side means you can check for roots without opening up your air layers
Impressed, lso easy to use, can't wait to see it in action.
This is a great product for creating bonsai material from existing branches. I love the versatility is provides, as I can take branches that are already showing signs of ageing and, through air layering, create new bonsai material, especially of slow growing trees, such as Wild Olive. I love your meticulous and fast service!
