I put rooting gel on the wounded bark and then wrap with a mixture of sphagnum peat moss and pebble-size pieces of horticultural sponge. Usually, the mixture of moss and sponge bits are only slightly damp because too much moisture will starve the air-layering of oxygen -- not to mention invite all kinds of anaerobic bacteria and mold.
