I started three airlayers on a cork bark chinese elm about 6 weeks ago.
All the previous air layers I've done were on pines, spruce, ume, or oaks, and all were left on for at least six months before being ready for removal. However, with these elm layers, fat white roots are pushing out all over the plastic wrap I used to hold together the sphagnum moss balls covering the wounds. If I used the same standard for these that I used for other layers I've done, these look like would be ready for removal already.
Should they be removed now? Or how long should I wait?
