Important Guidelines:
Air layering is a propagation technique used to root branches of a plant while they are still attached to the parent plant. It's a common method for propagating mango trees, and tissue paper can be used to aid in the process. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to air layer a mango tree using tissue paper:
Materials you will need:
Sharp knife or pruning shears
Tissue paper or sphagnum moss
Plastic wrap or clear plastic bag
Twine or rubber bands
Rooting hormone (optional)
Step-by-step process:
Choose the branch: Select a healthy, medium-sized branch on the mango tree that is at least one year old. The branch should be flexible enough to bend without breaking.
Make a cut: About 12 to 18 inches from the tip of the selected branch, make a clean, upward 1-2 inch-long cut through the bark and the cambium layer (the greenish layer just under the bark) using a sharp knife or pruning shears. Make sure the cut is not too deep to avoid damaging the inner wood.
Prepare the tissue paper: Take a few sheets of tissue paper and moisten them with water. Squeeze out any excess water so that the tissue paper is damp but not soaking wet.
Wrap the cut area: Take the damp tissue paper and wrap it around the cut area of the branch. This will help retain moisture and encourage root development.
Cover with plastic bag: Wrap the tissue paper-wrapped cut area with a sheet of clear plastic wrap or use a clear plastic bag and secure it in place with twine or rubber bands. This creates a mini greenhouse effect and helps maintain a humid environment around the air layer.
Check periodically: Over the next few weeks, check the air layer regularly to ensure the tissue paper remains damp. You may need to add more water to keep it moist. Avoid overwatering, as it could lead to rot.
Rooting hormone (optional): If you have rooting hormone available, you can lightly dust the cut area with rooting hormone before applying the tissue paper. This can help stimulate root growth.
Wait for roots to form: After several weeks, roots should begin to form from the cut area. You can gently check for root development by carefully peeling back the plastic wrap and tissue paper.
Cut and pot the rooted layer: Once you see a sufficient amount of roots (usually at least 2-3 inches long), you can remove the air layer from the parent tree. Make a clean cut just below the rooted area. Transplant the rooted air layer into a suitable pot with well-draining soil mix, and care for it as you would with any other young mango tree.
Remember that air layering is best done during the active growing season, usually in spring or early summer. Not all air layers are successful, but with proper technique and care, you can increase your chances of success in propagating a new mango tree.
