    Thanks for this video David! I really like what you did to wire the tree in the pot with the bamboo sticks. I'm always scared to let ugly wire marks on roots that I may want to expose some day. I'm definitely going to try this on my trees!

    I had a Ficus in my room but the artificial sun lighting wasn't strong enough, and the leaves started to fall out. It was also in Akadama Bonsai Soil but it would dry too quickly and would have to water every day. I then repotted it in a bigger pot with Organic Sphagnum Peat Moss, placed it outside It is now doing well, filling up with leaves!

    Welcome back! As usual, guys, another GREAT creation. I can't wait to see this in a few years. Ficus grows pretty fast so it shouldn't take too long to look pretty spectacular.
    Just out of curiosity, does David sweep up his soil mixture to be used again? He uses akadama like it isn't the most expensive soil in the world outside of Japan 😂 That stuff is precious to me. I save every grain of it because it costs so much. I can get it locally for about $40 for a standard 14L bag. In Japan it's around $10-15 depending on the brand. Is it inexpensive in Canada?

    Wow! That's amazing and so scary 😮
    How long does it take to grow new branches and leaves?
    Is it possible to use a wire to change the direction of the roots, for example, to pull them out of the soil and give them the desired direction and shape?
    And may I cut all huge roots inside the soil and leave only smaller roots around the trunk?

    You're very gentle on the roots but maybe more radical sorting comes later. Looks there was some potential to thin out more to make way for more feeder roots? Still, it looks very promising.
