Aetherial Reduction: what am I doing wrong?

EvinnaReed has recently posted two rotations (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ible-Rotations) that are not in my gathering guide.

After spending hours work on this, I find that the 8/8 gathering rotation shown in the picture below is the best course of action for getting landborne/leafborne. Use the 7/8 rotation if you don't want to rely on procs and have to respawn nodes looking for procs, but it is a slightly less chance of a landborne/leafborne.
