Right guys, I need your expert advise.
I took a walk up the woods with my dog today for the first time since starting 51cg.
I picked out a bunch of material that I would like to make an attempt at collecting. ( I have the land owners permission to take what I want)
I believe the ones I thought would make good Bonsaiwere a maple, and couple of different types of pine. I will upload pics next time I¡¯m there.
Is airlayering the best option or digging them up more efficient. I¡¯m yet to try either of these techniques. There¡¯s a bunch I can try on so it¡¯ll be trial and error.
What is the most effective way?
Cheers
