    Adam
    Thank you for the video, even though I have been creating Bonsai for nearly 40 years your videos have encouraged me to try new techniques.
    You never fail to astound me with your depth of knowledge ot the subject.
    Where did your gain such a depth of knowledge?
    Best wishes
    Keep them coming.

    Great to see this Adam. I’ve been wondering the best approach for some Thuja I bought early on in my bonsai journey to practice on and this was really helpful. Thanks. Keep em coming!

    Hi Adam your getting rather good at your presentation explaining what you are trying to achieve, great to see your air layer proved successful and you have given all the trees some well needed pruning. Really enjoyable watch, thank you Adam.

    thuja are so great. fast growing. easy to root from any most size cuttings too. mine i got off the sale rack as garden center stock a few years ago. its already getting a fluted trunk. i have not even done any root work on it yet. this is the 2nd or 3rd year ive had it. i think you made the right cuts on those lowers of the last tree btw

      Thanks Mr Jeetro! 🤗 I think It's great to try new stuff and experiment in any Art - This is how we can truly push the boundaries of creativity and discover our own unique styles as artists. 🎨🎶📸✨

    @Vaasth Рік тому

    nice vid, I would consider slip potting the one tree that you are trying to thicken into bigger pot
    are you keeping the rest of the tree that you took the airlayer off to see if it pushes some buds?

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  Рік тому +1

      I am keeping it for sure! Great idea on the slip potting! I may just do that!!

  • @jackthefarmer08
    @jackthefarmer08 Рік тому

    Nice examples for a beginner. Your mixture of soil seems to be working well, but we don't have akadama here where I live. What can I substitute akadama with?

    • @gamerwithin8241
      @gamerwithin8241 День тому

      I can't find akademma in my country either. You can use turface instead of akademma, but if you can't find turface either like in my case. I find using crushed red bricks work

    1/ this summer I lost quite a few trees planted in these plastic pots. When under the sun they get so hot you can hardly touch them.
    2/ would’nt a plastic bag be more efficient than anti-transpirant?

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  Рік тому

      Hey, Sorry to hear that. It doesn't get that hot where I am so its always good to use what works for you in your conditions. The plastic bag would also work but remember to open it every few days to air it out or you may get fungal problems! 😊

    Hi Adam, I've been watching a lot of your videos, and this one made me ask: I have a leftover small thuja Christmas tree (a free surprise from our big box home store) and want to make my first bonsai with it,. It's about 18' tall from the top of the 6" pot it's in, and today is December 29, and I'm in Connecticut. What do I do with my little tree to make it survive the cold of our winter?
