PNEUMATIC CUSHION Filed March 14, 1927 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Zia/072257 Grwld Quote 719072,
Patented Sept. 3, 1929.
Application filed March 14, 1927. Serial No. 175,077.
This invention relates to pneumatic cushions and particularly to cushions known as Wedge cushions, and used particularly as back rest cushions in automoblies and other 6 places. One object of the invention is to provide a pneumatic cushion of wedge shaped cross section. Another object is to provide a pneumatic cushion structure which will cause the cushion to assume the desired wedge shape as an incident to inflation thereof. Still another object is to provide a cushion structure in which the front and back portions comprise plain sheets of material united face to face in such a way that the cushion will as sume said wedge shape as an incident to infiation thereof.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a pneumatic cushion of the class described which will be'strong and durable so as to be capable of supporting a relatively heavy load; to provide such a cushion which may be used as a seat cushion; and in general, to provide an improved pneumatic cushion of the class described.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be understood by reference to the following specification and accompanying drawings in which I have illustrated a selected embodiment of my improved cushion and its construction and in which:
Fig. 1 is a plan showing the appearance of the cushion when deflated.
Fig. 2 is also a plan showing the appearance of the cushion when inflated.
Fig. 3 is a side elevation.
Fig. 4 is a section on the line 44 of Fig. 2, an
Figs. 5 and 6 are sections on the lines 55 and 6-6 respectively of Fig. 1.
Referring now to the drawings, my improved cushion comprises front and back sheets 10 and 11 respectively, of rubberized fabric united together along a marginal zone and along intermediate zones to form a sealed envelope or chamber divided into a plurality of chamber portionsv of various sizes and shapes. 7 The sheets 10 and 11 (as shown in Fig. 6) of rubberized fabric, comprise inner rubber portions 12 and 13 respectively, and outer fabric portions 14 and 15 respectively. The fabric portions are eifective to protect the rubber sheets or portions from excessive wear and puncturing.
In the present embodiment of my invention I prefer to unite the sheets 10 and 11 together (as shown in Fig. 6) in relatively narrow zones by means of vulcanizing under pressure. By this means, a large portion of the rubber will be forced outwardly towards the cdges of the united zone and reinforcing beads mdlcated at 1616, integral with the rubber sheets, will be formed. It will also be understood that a considerable amount of the rubber will be forced into the interstices of the fabric in the said zones. By thus joining the front and back sheets, a very strong bond is formed therebetween and the chambers defined by the various united zones are very strongly reinforced by' the beads 16 so as to wlthstand a relatively high pressure without danger of separating the sheets at their joints.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, I prefer to unite the sheets 10 and 11 along a relatively narrow marginal zone 17 which extends entirely around the outer edges or peripheries of the sheets so as to form a pocket or chamber,
adapted to be inflated. In addition to the peripheral or marginal zone of union, I join the sheets in relatively narrow intermediate zones 1818 extending from the top edge 19 of the cushion downwardly towards the bottom edge 20 and terminating in a pear-shaped button-head 21 adjacent the said lower edge. The button-heads 2121 are preferably pearshaped or rounded so as to avoid sharp cornersin the joint between the front and back portions of the cushion whereby the joint is somewhat stronger and there is less danger of producing an imperfect joint whereby the I joined sheets might possibly be easily separated. The zones 1818 are preferably disposed at an inclination to the adjacent side edges 22 and 23 so as to form chamber portions 24 and 25 of varying width. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the chambers 24 and 25 are relatively wide at their top portions and narrow at their bottom portions.
I further find it desirable to sub-divide th chamber portion intermediate the chamber portions 24. and 25. For this purpose I unite the front and back sheets in the manner described in a relatively narrow zone 26 terminating in button-heads 27-27 at its opposite ends adjacent the said zones 18-18. The lower portion of the said intermediate chamber portion is further sub-divided by means of a zone of union 28 extendin cross-wise as at 29 and downwardly at its sides as at 30 and- By uniting the front and back sheets which form my improved cushion in the manner above described, it will be seen that I rovide a large chamber sub-divided into a p urality of inter-communicating chamber portions or compartments of various sizes and some of which chamber portions vary in their cross sectional dimensions from top to bottom. In the present embodiment, the chamber portions adjacent the bottom edge 20 of the cushion are relatively small and as they approach the upper edge 19, their respective sizes increase progressively. It will further be noted that all of the chamber portions are inter-connected by passageways provided between the ends of the various intermediate zones of union and adjacent zones.
For the purpose of inflating the cushion, I prefer to provide a valve 33 which as shown best in Fig. 5 preferably comprises a valve mechanism 34 having a shank 35 provided with enlarged heads 36 and 37. A rubber sleeve 38 is slipped over the shank 35 so that the heads 36 and 37 will be effective to retain the sleeve thereover and in which position the sleeve may be cemented or otherwise secured by suitable means. The shank 35 with the rubber sleeve 38 disposed thereover, is positioned between the front and back .sheets 10 and 11 of the cushion so that the portion of small diameter of the shank 35 will be disposed in the marginal zone 17 in which the sheets are united. When the zone 17 is vulcanized, the sleeve 38 will also be vulcanized to the'inner rubber portions of the cushion and the valve mechanism thereby firmly held in place. The valve mechanism 34 may be of any suitable type having a check valve or other provision for preventing the escape of air from the chamber, and in the present instance I prefer to provide the rubber sleeve 38 with an inwardly extending portion 39 which may be conveniently squeezed between the fingers to prevent escape of air from the cushionwhen the valve mechanism 34 is being manipulated. By this construction it will be apparent that the cushion may easily be inflated by blowing thereinto, and pinching the extension 39 betweenthe fingers to permit the taking of a new breath preparatory to further blowing. It will of course, be understood that I may provide independent chamber portions connected together to form a unitary cushion structure, suitable means being provided for inflation of each of the chambers. For protectingthe valve mechanism I extend the sheets 10 and 11 outwardly to form flaps 40 and 41 as clearly shown in Fig. 5.
In Figs. 2, 3 and 4, I have shown my improved cushion as it appears when inflated. It will be observed that the cushion is substantially wedge shaped in cross section, being considerably thicker from front to back adj acent its upper edge 19, than it is adjacent its lower edge 20. The cushion assumes this shape in cross section due to the fact that the front and back sheets are joined so as to produce chamber portions which are smaller at their lower ends or adjacent the lower edge 20, and larger at their upper ends or adjacent the upper edge 19. It will further be noted that the chamber portions 42, 43 and 44, intermediate the side edge chamber portions 24 and 25 are progressively larger as they approach the upper edge 19, and this arrange ment causes the portion of the cushion intermediate the chambers 24 and 25 to assume the said wedge shape. The front and back sheets are maintained in spaced relation by inflation of the cushion" and the described arrangement of joined zones is effective to control the spacing of the sheets, since the smaller portions of the sheets which form the smaller chamber or compartment portions cannot be distended by inflation as great an amount as the larger portions which form the larger chamber portions.
The arrangement of chamber divisions or portions illustrated in the present embodiment which includes chamber portions extending lengthwise and crosswise of the cushion and transversely to each other, is particularly desirable, since it tends to prevent folding or buckling of the cushion except along desirable lines. It will be understood as by an inspection of Fig. 2, that the cushion will not readily bend along a horizontal line such as defined by the zone 26, since the side chamber portions 24 and 25 would oppose such bending. The cushion may however, be bent a certain amount along vertically extending lines defined by the zones 1818 and thereby be caused to more closely fit the back of a person using the cushion for back rest purposes. I 1
I prefer to notch the upper edge 19 of the cushion as indicated at 4545 and the lower edge of the cushion as indicated at 46-46 so as to permit the cushion to assume such shape as is incidental to inflation thereof. By an inspection of Fig. 2 it will be noted that the cushion more or less squares itself, as the notches 45 and 46 are closed up. The upper edge portion of the cushion also buckles slightly, as indicated at 47, but such buckling is not of such a great extent as to be objectionable and to require the provision of additional notches or other means for the purpose of eliminating the same.
I prefer to provide somewhat enlarged 12o corner marginal portions as indicated at 48 and to provide suitable eyelets in these corner portions as indicated at 49 to facilitate fastening the cushion in any desired position on the back of an automobile seat or other place. 7
I am aware that many modifications in the arrangement of joined zones or chambers or chamber portions may be made, as well as in the form and construction of the cushion, 1
vention, the scope of which s ould be determined by reference to the following claims, which should be construed as broadly as possible, consistent with the state of the art.
I claim as my invention: 1. In a pneumatic cushion of the class de- 'scribed, the combination of front and back members united together around their outer edges so as to form a sealed envelope adapted to be inflated, whereltfi intermediate portions of said members w be spaced apart and will enclose a chamber, said members also being united along relatively narrow intermediate zones so as to divide said chamberinto a plurality of compartments respectively disposed crosswise and lengthwise of the cushion, said compartments bein of relatively small size along one edge 0 the cushion and of relativelylar e size along the opposite edge, whereby t e cushion will be caused to assume a wedge-like shape in cross section when inflated, and the crosswise and lengthwise arrangement of said compartmentbeing efiective to prevent undesira 1e bending of the cushion.
2. In a pneumatic cushion of the class described, the combination of normall flat front and back members united aroun their outer edges so as to form a sealed envelope, said envelope bein adapted to be inflated so as to form a cham er therein, said members also being intermediately united in relatively narrow zones extending lengthwise thereof adjacent opposite side edges of the cushion and so as to form lengthwise extending comthereof, the
partments of greater width at the top edge of the cushion than at the bottom edge thereof, the portions of said members intermediate said lengthwise zones being also united so as to orm compartments extending crosswise of t e cushion and of greater capacity along said top edge than at said bottom edge, said compartment arrangement being effective to cause the cushion to assume a wedge-like shape in cross section, and also to prevent undesirable bending of the cushion.
3. In a pneumatic cushion ofthe class described, the combination of normally flat front and back members united around their outer edges so as to form a sealed envelope, said envelope bein adapted to be inflated so as to form a cham er therein, said-members also being intermediately united in relatively narrow zones extending lengthwise thereof adjacent opposite side ed es of the cushion and so as to form lengthwise extending compartments ofgreater width at the top edge of the cushion than at the bottom edge ortions of said members intermediate sai lengthwise zones being also united so as to form compartments extend ing crosswise of the cushion and of greater capacity alon said top edge than at said bottom edge, sai compartment arrangement being effective to cause the cushion to assume a wedge-like shape in cross section, and also to prevent undesirable bending of the cushion, and valve means for facllitating inflation of said envelope.

Re: Reading last chapter first
^ Definitely a valid way to look at it. As for trips, I'm the same way that I'm with books. I travel A LOT, particularly internationally. I'd generally rather go to a new place than revisit an old place. However, I make more exceptions for travel because even if you revisit the same city in a particular country, you're bound to see new sights. So, for me, that's how it differs from books. (But, I do understand that rereading can give you and others great pleasure so again, it's just a personal preference.)

Volunteer pumpkin - what do I do?
A month ago I prepared my 15 gallon containers for this tear's tomatoes and chilis. In one of my pots, a pumpkin sprouted - probably from a seed from last year's jack o'lantern that went into the compost. It's now growing very happily in a tomato cage.
I think it would be fun to see if I can get one or two pumpkins - even though there is not much space. When the vine gets to the top of the cage do I just pinch the tip or is it better to cut the vine between leaves? How do you hand pollinate the flowers?
Realistically I should just pull it out since there is no room, but on the other hand, it won't cost anyhing to bonsai it to see what happens.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Holly
Holly, I wouldn't prune that vine much. They need the leafs to produce and mature fruit.
Can you let it climb the cage and then crawl around the others? Pumpkins, depending on the variety, need room. If it is something like Baby Bear (very restrained variety) it might do well. But normal Jack O'lantern varieties generally get large. Wish I could tell you what to do.
Here's a link on hand pollination.
Tahlequah, OK
Here is a link that might be useful: Hand pollination of Squash
Thanks George!
The pollinating link is fabulous. I just don't have the heart to pull it out and put it in the compost bin, so I may try letting the vine do 'laps' around my containers.
It's an interesting experiment and we'll see what happens.
Pumpkin vines tend to root into the soil at every node if they can, and yours will need to if it is to produce. A pumpkin takes a lot of energy to produce. It could be fun to try growing a pumpking vine "piggy back" across containers. :) If there are bees out there the pollination will likely get done anyway. Male flowers usually come first (but not always). You need both to get a fruit, the female will develop into a pumpkin. Be sure you provide some support for the growing pumpking if it sets; the vine won't be able to support it on its own (unless it's a really tiny pumpkin!)
Update: I have a pumpkin! I hand pollinated a few flowers according to the instructions posted (thank you, thank you) and one started growing right away. Unfortunately I broke the main vine before I went on vacation so I wasn't able to get the vine back to the ground to do laps :) I made a hammock out of fabric to support it - tied between two tomato cages.
Now the vine looks terrible, probably because it's been in the 90's and it gets full afternoon sun on the black nursery pot, but the pumkin looks about ready to pick. Almost all the way orange and about as big around as a salad plate. Not much of a crop, but I'm happy with it.
Should I let the vine die or just cut it off now?
"Volunteer pumpkin - what do I do?"
I had to laugh. The title sounded like it was an emergency or something!
...hello?...911? I have an emergency. There's this pumpkin...I don't know where it came from, it just showed up. Now it's growing towards the house! And the children! Help!

SECU buys 8,000 Lenovo PCs
When the State Employees Credit Union buys local, it buys a lot of local.
The Raleigh-based credit union announced Monday that it is purchasing 8,000 PCs from Lenovo, which will assemble them at its Guilford County plant.
SECU spokeswoman Leigh Brady said Lenovo's North Carolina operations were a significant factor in the not-for-profit's decision to purchase the PCs from Lenovo, which is the No. 1 PC company worldwide.
"It's helping to keep jobs in North Carolina," said Brady.
The PCs that the credit union is buying from Lenovo also exceed the government's Energy Star specifications for energy-efficiency.
Lenovo, in addition to its Guilford County plant that opened in October 2012, also has a headquarters in Morrisville that employs about 2,200 workers. Moreover, the Chinese company's presence in North Carolina will nearly double when it completes its acquisition of a line of servers from IBM.
The PCs that SECU is purchasing will replace existing units at its 253 branches and 5 operations centers across the state. SECU, which caters to state employees and their families, serves nearly 1.9 million members.
"It's been four to five years since we did a refresh on all of our PCs, so it was time," Brady said.
All of the PCs are scheduled to be delivered this year. SECU hopes to have about 6,500 of them installed by the end of April, Brady said.

I am looking for a container that will hold an entire box of Persil powder. I currently have my box on the floor, and besides making the floor a mess with powder, the bottom of the box gets damp from the concrete basement floor. I'd like to find something, a large jar with lid, perhaps, that I can set on top of my washer for ease of use. Any suggestions? Thanks!

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal regulators have charged the Chinese affiliates of five of the biggest U.S. accounting firms with impeding the government's investigation of Chinese companies by refusing to turn over documents.
The Securities and Exchange Commission said Monday it has started proceedings against the Chinese affiliates of all so-called Big Four accounting firms — Deloitte, Ernst & Young, KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers — and a fifth major firm, BDO.
Hundreds of Chinese companies trade on U.S. stock exchanges. The SEC has been investigating many of them for possible accounting fraud. The agency says the accounting firms, which audit Chinese companies, have refused to cooperate in investigations of nine companies and to provide documents.
The Chinese affiliates of the firms, which are subject to Chinese law, say they cannot hand over the documents because the Chinese government won't allow them to do so, and could penalize them if they do. The Chinese government maintains that providing the documents to U.S. regulators would violate Chinese sovereignty and its secrecy laws.
In statements Monday, some of the Chinese affiliates said they hoped the issue could be resolved in negotiations between Chinese and U.S. authorities.
Ernst & Young Hua Ming LLP said "We hope that an agreement can be reached between U.S. and Chinese regulators that will enable our compliance with all applicable laws and regulations."
"While it is unfortunate that the two countries have not yet been able to find common ground on these issues, we remain hopeful that a diplomatic agreement can be reached," Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu said in its statement.

Editorial Review
Excerpt from New York Times 10/12/08
You may think of Fodor's as dependably bland, but its "New York City 2009" (Fodor's Travel, 552 pages, $18.95) is the can't-go-wrong choice for just about any first-timer to the Big Apple. First, it's beautiful — great layout, nice maps, easy-to-read font on thick paper. And design matters with guidebooks: they have to be legible in low light, on crowded buses and in airports when you're jetlagged and your contacts are killing you.
The best way to break up this mammoth city is by neighborhood, and Fodor's devotes about 200 pages to that task. The neighborhood guides pack information into breezy prose, and have sections like "Where can I find ...?" which gives you two choices each for a coffee stop, "a quick bite" or cocktails in each neighborhood, eliminating possible excuses for entering a Starbucks or McDonald's. If you're browsing in the bookstore and you want a quick sense of why Fodor's stands out, look at their seven-page section on ground zero that starts on page 48 and somehow manages to explain the site and the history in depth while also hitting the right notes about the tragedy.

Police say it was a seven-vehicle crash and a major fuel spill that kept the eastbound 403 on lockdown for most of Wednesday.
Two people were injured in the collision, which snarled the morning commute and spurred two other crashes on city streets as drivers tried detours to escape the mayhem.
The 403 crash happened at 6:30 a.m. near Waterdown Road just past the ramp to Highway 6.
OPP Constable Graham Williamson says a driver who was losing power tried to move his vehicle onto the right shoulder.
"There was a chain reaction in trying to avoid him," Williamson said.
Two transport trucks, one full of propane, and four other passenger vehicles then collided.
Williamson said a Mitsubishi Lancer sedan, which was also involved, rolled into the ditch as a result. Originally, that driver's injuries were believed to be "quite severe," he said.
An air ambulance was dispatched but quickly called off. Four land ambulances were called in — two from Halton region and two from Hamilton.
The other person injured had been in another passenger vehicle. Police did not immediately have the victims' genders or ages.
One person was taken to Hamilton's General Hospital and the other was taken to Burlington's Joseph Brant hospital.
OPP were able to reopen the lanes around 1 p.m.
"The biggest problem was the road closure," Williamson added. "There was a substantial fuel spill. Tankers can hold 200 litres on each side."
Williamson was unable to say how much fuel had leaked onto the road.
The massive backlog that remained reached up the Ancaster hill and across the Linc all the way to Mud Street. It led to two separate accidents within the city after scores of drivers scrambled to get off the highway.
Hamilton police and paramedics were called to both of those crashes, but neither one was deemed serious. The first was just after 9 a.m. in the area of York Boulevard and Queen Street involving two cars. A second call came at 10:30 a.m. for a crash on York Boulevard at the 403 ramp.
"There's a lot of congestion," Constable Debbie McGreal-Dinning said Wednesday morning. "Watch your speed, spacing and just be patient. You can't get there any faster."
The Ministry of Transportation was also called to the scene of the 403 crash.
Police continue to investigate. Charges are pending.

How desperate do you have to be to try and burglarize a house in the ****ing daytime?
Well, drug paraphernalia explains it. Meth and reason do not mix.

So, does this mean the previous sketch in the article 6 days ago of a young black male suspected in the local burglaries was incorrect? Or that this is assumed to be a different burglary suspect?

DEFINITION of 'Index'
A statistical measure of change in an economy or a securities market. In the case of financial markets, an index is an imaginary portfolio of securities representing a particular market or a portion of it. Each index has its own calculation methodology and is usually expressed in terms of a change from a base value. Thus, the percentage change is more important than the actual numeric value.
Stock and bond market indexes are used to construct index mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) whose portfolios mirror the components of the index.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Index'
The Standard & Poor's 500 is one of the world's best known indexes, and is the most commonly used benchmark for the stock market. Other prominent indexes include the DJ Wilshire 5000 (total stock market), the MSCI EAFE (foreign stocks in Europe, Australasia, Far East) and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (total bond market).
Because, technically, you can't actually invest in an index, index mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (based on indexes) allow investors to invest in securities representing broad market segments and/or the total market.

The PlayStation 4 is breaking records at GameStop. During an earnings call today, GameStop president Tony Bartel said PS4 sell-through since launch on November 15 is 80 percent higher than the total number of PlayStation 3s sold during GameStop's entire 2006 fiscal year.
The PS3 went on sale at GameStop in November 2006. The company's fiscal 2006 ended in February 2007, meaning the PS3 was only on sale during GameStop's fiscal 2006 for a period of three months.
Bartel declined to disclose the exact number of PS4s GameStop has sold so far for "competitive reasons," but did say that GameStop's share was higher than any previous console launch. The PS4 has officially sold more than 1 million units across North America so far.
Bartel also addressed future PS4 sales, saying of the 3 million units Sony plans to sell by the end of the calendar year, a "large portion" will be sold at GameStop.
Also during the call, Bartel said GameStop is poised for success this holiday with the PS4 and Xbox One due to its industry leading market share. For the latest quarter, a record 52 percent of all Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 games sold in the US were sold at GameStop, he said.
GameStop attached software at a rate 2.2 times greater than the competition, he added. In addition, Bartel explained that every GameStop associate received three hours of training on the Xbox One and PS4 to ensure that GameStop employees are the "most prepared staff in all of retail."
Looking ahead to the Xbox One launch this evening, Bartel said the value of reservations and additional allocation of the next-generation console is 15 percent higher than the total number of Xbox 360s sold in fiscal 2005.

Have you started your own cuttings? Please, let's see them)
I was wondering if anyone here has ever been daring and started their own cuttings for growth?
It can be fun..You can get a double if not more of your favorite tree and they grow very well in pots producing great foliage and fruits!
How did you get them to root? What's your method?
How many have you had a go at and how are they doing? Pics or course...I will post some on my day off this Thursday or Friday...)
Cuttings will produce right away, if the tree you've taken the cuttings from has already reached mature node count. That's essentially how grafted trees are produced - from a mature tree, take cuttings, graft to rootstock - fruit immediately. Mike, I have not grown anything from cuttings, as I depend on my rootstocks to help protect my trees since the vast majority of my trees are in-ground. But, if you're going to keep things in a container, cuttings are pretty easy to do. Some cultivars are very easy to grow from cuttings, such as Improved Meyer. Most folks will remove some of the leaves, so you don't have too many leaves to support, dip in rooting hormone and put in a rather dense mix to keep the roots moist. Once roots have sprouted and you see some growth on top, (tiny flush), you can move to a more porous mix. How are you doing your cuttings?
Patty S.
Got back from CA 2 weeks ago. My parents live in So. Cal. Them have a Chinese grapefruit which they grew from seed from China. They've had it for 20-30 years and it' has never fruited for them. It flowered once and that is it. Of note, my uncle in N. Cal. also had some seed and his does fruit. Anyways, I took some cuttings from my parents tree and brought them back to OK. I cut the bottoms of them, left about 3 leaves on them, stuck them in rooting hormone and miconizzheal fungus and planted in 511 mix. I put them in a large clear trash bag, mist them and close off the bag. I let fresh air in the bag every 2-3 day. They've stayed moist so far so no more misting. Its only been about 2 weeks but so far they are still green. I keep my fingers crossed.
I'm hoping a change of scenery will help them fruit. If this works, I'll roots some for my parents and put it in a pot by the pool where it is nice and sunny. The location of their current tree is not good (clay and too much shade).
Wish me luck. Any advise would be appreciated.
Hi Mike, I rooted these , two Persian limes and one key lime . I took cuttings in early June , used rooting powder and put them in a peat, garden soil mix. Kept them outside under a peach tree without covering. About half rooted out of twelve cuttings. Honestly, I was not expecting much, but was happy with the results. Gave a few away already , and these will also be gifts. Lost one yesterday with all that rain we had. Take care, Kev.
While I did not do my own cutting, this Meyer lemon tree is the result of a rooted cutting.
I rooted about 8 Citrandarin cuttings. Harvested the wood in May and many rooted by July. I even had some root over a year later! Imagine that!
For rooting, I have a large plastic storage container filled with perlite/potting soil kept just moist. It sits outside in dappled shade and stays quite warm over the summer. This is where I do the rooting. I also use rooting hormone on the cuttings and reduce the number of leaves per cutting to only 2 or 3. Large leaves get cut in half.
Edit: Yes, the lid of the container stays on tight. It holds in heat and humidity. I usually have to sprinkle in some extra water maybe every couple weeks.
Here's a photo of last year's cutting that's bloomed already!

Serg, hello...I would say It takes me a couple of months before they take and start to grow..But that is because I root them in spring when it's warm, not in the cold months of the year..I never tried over winter...
Dave, fantastic work...Yes it is that easy..Easier than people think..As long as they are kept warm and moist...
I love your idea, since I pretty much do the same thing...Great job.
Patty...Graet advice as always..You are right, especially in cutting the leaves off and back...Thank you and by the way, my Mom sends a hug your way and said that if you need more slippers, to let her know)
Steve, yours are getting pretty big, good job. I could never get a fig to grow from a cutting...Wow..I did stick one in the ground over the spring and it took!
Kev, great job..Isn't it fun, especially to see them fruit and grow that fast at such a size? I can tell you this...Try buying one at a local store of like Logee's..Expensive..You save so much money..
Keep up the good work.
Vanman..Good luck! They look fantastic..It would be nice if we could keep them in a humid environment for years to come..But they will be ok once you take the bags off for good)
Hi Mike
Could you post a close up picture of the kumquat and another close up of the changshou. coul you also fill me in on your soil mix. While my mix works great for citrus trees, it does poorly for un-fortunella trees.

Hey Sharon, what a surprise! That's so sweet of you.
How have you been? How's the plants?
Yes, I have been thinking of stopping by..I miss you all there too.
I barely spend any time with my succulents anymore..They still abound in growth and color too..I will see you there soon I hope..
I need to save my lime tree from gophers. This is an established old Bearss, so is it too hot now to start cuttings?
Every week more branches die and we can't find the gopher tunnels. The roots could have spread for a long way. The tree is old. Otherwise healthy.
We plan to try grafting onto a large lemon seedling that produces lemons so small and seedy it's hardly worth the trouble.
It's never too late if you live in a warmer climate Desertdance..
The key is to keeping your cutting in a very warm environment...I have even rooted some in warm pond water..
I would start now before it's too late.
I am so sorry to hear about your problem..
I'll get some started today.
Probably best to do the citrus in pots since they don't go dormant? I did olive cuttings in ground, and they are now big trees. We had to move them, and they suffered some shock, but are fine now.
How long should the cutting be?
From what I read above, leave 2-3 leaves on the branch and rooting hormone on the stem?
The photo shows the tree is full of limes. Even still some blossoms. It's hard to find a branch with no limes. They aren't yet ripe, but to get a good branch, I may have to remove the limes. I'm hoping the cutting will still root.

I rooted some budwood without leaves. We'll see what happens.
Stripped the bottom and gave it an angled cut. Dipped in rooting powder. Planted in small containers with medium weight soil. Put outside with a ziploc bag on top and a warming pad on the bottom.

Isn't air layering easier than trying to root cuttings? Just tried my first one with a fig so maybe I should have seen if it takes before commenting.
Are the cuttings you are using fresh green wood or the older "woody" stems?
Hey, Mike, another great Thread!
Yessir, you're very skilled at rooting citrus cuttings....you make it look easy! Those cuttings you rooted are excellent and vital. The frogs clearly agree, haha! I, too, can't wait for you to post some of your exotic Jade updates for us ;-)
Queenskitchen, I think fresh green wood is better for rooting, at least in my experience. The mature, hardened cutting I attempted to root wilted almost immediately.
Veggie girl, I rooted a lemon cutting without rooting hormone....but it took a long time. I didn't use a dome, bag, or humidity chamber of any type, so that probably slowed things down, as well.
This is the only cutting that I've successfully rooted - and it took 9 months!!! I was going to throw it out, but noticed a tiny root...so I potted it up, and now it looks alright, though a bit stretchy due to growing beneath a bench (didn't want the tender new growth to get blasted by the sun). This is a variegated pink Eureka Lemon. The cutting has bloomed twice during the rooting process.
My aunt will be visiting in November, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to give this cutting to her.

If anyone has been following my other thread "Meyer lemon Air layer, help! " you are familiar with my story and our ranch meyer lemon tree. When I began the air layer process onto the tree I also brought home 6 cuttings to try aswell.
4 of the 6 cuttings died. 2 developed very good root systems. One has grown quite a bit of foilage while the other hasn't grown any. They have spend 2-3 months potted inside a bag and north facing window. 2 weeks ago I decided to pot them up and them outside for first time uncovered. They have been outside for 2 weeks. They seem to be doing well.
I've done a few citrus cuttings over the years, a few have died due to neglect.
But this is my 'best one' you can see another plastic bottle method one next to it.
My method is plastic bottle cut in half, peat, perlite, fresh cutting. Plonk cutting in moist soil put lid on leave until it fills with roots. :)

my 7 yr old seedling of calamondin was getting very gangly, so i decided to air-layer and cut the top portion off.
it went very well. i posted in the thread earlier this past summer.
i started in may and here's a pic of it in oct - it's in a 1 gal nursery pot (half-gal in reality).
