Re: air layer
Hi Guy, No I have not seen this particular method or clamshell devise but basically it is not too dissimilar to a normal air layer to which there are a number of variations, most of which work quite well. Yes this was interesting though, thanks for the post, Michael.

Re: air layer
Heh, I should have specified Australian Supplier. Although if the postage isn't too bad might still be worth itJosh wrote:Wasn't hard to find. Simply typed in clamshell propagator.Phoenix238 wrote:I'd be interested to hear if anyone finds a supplier

Re: air layer
Sorry couldn't find an Aussie supplier for you. Postage is a killer, it was around $45-$55 depending what you bought. I'll look into it further from some other angles and see what I can find out.Phoenix238 wrote:Heh, I should have specified Australian Supplier.

Re: air layer
I have just sent them an email asking for an Aus distributor or pricing for a bulk order. I'll let you know a response.

Re: air layer
Have seen similar: http://www.leevalley.com/us/Garden/page ... 36&p=46938
The clamshell seems to be a bit simpler though... and probably cheaper
