    Man Peter Chan is like the Grandpa people always wanted or maybe just me lol. He’s so nice and calming and awesome at teaching everyone. Great person. I also get a kick out of how excited he gets meeting UA-cam fans.

    Came at just the right time! I just bought 3 of these spruces to practice on and it’s still a little cold outside so I have been waiting for some nicer weather. I was just going to go through your playlist to see a previous post to see how to make a bonsai out when this one popped up so now I need to look no further! We are still in lockdown and when we can travel again is anyone’s guess so I don’t know when I’ll be able to get there maybe next year. Take care Peter.

    I bought an Alberta Spruce one year ago when I saw the previous video "Making Formal Upright Bonsai from Alberta Spruce", but today after watching both videos again I finally started cutting and wiring my tree! It 'sort of looks ok' I think, but I had a hard time picking out the right branches as it had a split upper-trunk, so after cutting one of those upper-trunks I didn't have so much branches left to play with. So the top is a bit thin, I hope it will turn out fine next year(s). Thanks for sharing all these videos Peter, I would never have done something like this without them. Steven

    Great to hear that Picea can be struck, I have about 12 and still several I have not trimmed yet so I will give it a try, I have Hormodin #3 I use for my JBP cuttings so hopefully that will work. I have wired them and they have a hard time keeping shape so I have been trimming instead of wire on the pads, will have to give it another shot, love my little spruces but I wear gloves when I cut them, love the smell, hate the resin.

    All the pine/evergreen/etc stock I find here seems to be multi-trunk trees to make the shrubs/trees look bigger in the pot. I don't know if the is a UK difference or just better quality nursery stock. Have been practicing with them anyway because there's no such thing as an impossible tree.

    Hi, I bought a picea just like these from my local nursery, but the inner foliage has died off on the lower branches making them too long. Should i keep them as sacrifice branches for a bit longer, jin them, or just cut them off? For clarity, the tree is every bit 60-80cm tall and I already cleared the bottom 1/4.

    Hi Mr. Chan. Can a more mature dwarf Alberta be made into a niwaki? I personally think it can but I'm slightly nervous about how it will look when wired. Thank you so much for your channel, it has been all i watch in the evening since finding it. P.s. currently in the process of rescuing a dwarf alberta from been planted to deep so I think a niwaki will give it some attraction for all it's mistreatment.
