Google Glipmse

Internet For Every one

             A unique, creative, useful and free plant was introduced by Google named as Google glimpse or Google Loon project.
             This plant is actually a gigantic air balloon having numerous w-LAN (wireless LAN) routers in SA (South Africa). These routers emit wifi signals and frequencies. Since it is a loon project, the balloon stands in air and sends signals to the ground.  This plant is providing free wifi internet service to all the people in the boundary of South Africa. If I say the word “wifi cloudthen I think this will be the most suitable word for this.

           I’m saying the word unique for it because this Idea is not been presented by any other in the past. It is creative because it does not occupy space on the ground. All of the stuff is in the air. No one have difficulty related to it until he wants to enjoy the rainy weather: D.
This Google Glimpse has put the soul in free internet connection. In SA the service is used by students, schools, offices and homes.  Google is convincing and facilitating most of the people living on this earth not only the people living in South Africa. And that's what I call Happiness. But   I wish that it could also be introduced in Pakistan so I could also enjoy this free internet too at my place and everywhere.  Well this is free service by Google and it worth.

             And this topic doesn't ends here. It will not only affiliate the people on the ground it will also affiliate the people in a traveling balloon and air plane in that area also. This Idea will be the cause of many innovative ideas. This is the biggest application having
What people say that this going to be the best day of my life at the day when they got this blessing.

Well thanks to Google.

ROOTING HYBRID TEA ROSES

When I heard about roses and different plants that they can be multiplied by taking cuttings, Budding and grafting I was amazed and on that point I decided that I will try to multiply my roses from these above methods. Initially, I decided that but after some time I realized that taking cutting is the best method.
            Basically, rose cuttings are branches of the rose plant which are cut and planted in the soil and after sometime they make roots. These cuttings are taken when the pruning season of the roses begins and in early spring in areas where frost is likely to take place and when the danger of frost has passed.
            I have read over the internet that several roses are planted by cuttings e.g. several Floribundas, Grandifloras, Several DA roses and many more but also read that rooting hybrid tea roses is very difficult and these roses are generally propagated by Budding or Grafting. I had a Century II, which is a hybrid tea, rose bush growing in a container. So, when I pruned it I thought why not take cutting of this rose and ignored all the myths. 

The things you will need to perform such experiment are:

        1.A healthy, Developed rose.2.Sharp Pruning.3.Coarse sand.4.A pot where multiple cuttings can be placed.5.A transparent plastic bag.
    I have completely used organic methods for the propagation of Hybrid tea Rose. Means I have not used any rooting hormone or inorganic Fertilizer or any thing. Here are some simple steps to propagate Hybrid Tea Roses:-
1.First of All, Selection of the suitable weather and temperature is really important. If there is raining the your cutting will probably get fungus, If there is too much cold weather than it will not reproduce because roses do not develop under 15’C, If there is a very Hot weather than Cuttings will burn and For areas where  snow is falling or temperature is  below freezing point than cutting will freeze. Basically, Cuttings are planted at the pruning time i.e. Spring or it can also be taken in fall in areas where there is no harsh winters.
2.The selection of right stem for cutting is very important i.e. For cutting minimum requirement should be stem of 6 cm long and width should be of minimum pencil size means ¾ cm or much wider.
3.Cut the stem with a Pruner vertically at 45’ angle just above the bud Eye which is nearly developing.
4.Take several cuttings for greater chances of rooting. I took three cuttings of which only 1 developed.
5.Take a pot filled with plain coarse sand with no organic or inorganic fertilizer.
6.Place the cuttings in the container such that Half or more than half part of the cutting is in the soil.
7.Cover the pot with some plastic bag to increase the humidity which is required for rooting.
2.You can also sprinkle some Sulfur over cuttings to prevent any fugal attack.
3.Place the cuttings at the shady location and prevent direct sunlight.
4.The signs of the development will be seen in approximately 1 to 2 weeks or maybe even much longer time period. When the new leaves are produced then the plastic can be removed.
