    Whenever I plant or transplant a tree, I remind myself of the saying: The first year it sleeps; the second year it creeps; the third year it leaps. It helps me stay more patient.

      Yes, I heard this on a different bonsai channel. Seems to be true as I planted 2 Japanese maples in the garden 2 autumns ago. They barely grew last year, this year they’re growing and I’m hoping next year they shoot!

    its the perfect time of year to scoop great trees for little investment, as the various supermarkets that bring in potted plants for their market, and it's time to let them clear out! Found two lovely Hinoki Cypress in 1 gallon pots, for $9. each... love it they are in the bonsai area of our garden and I'll see what we want to do with them this fall.

    Hey Jelle it’s Zero the potter from our meet at the National Arboretum in DC. I’d love to see a video or even a short about the finer points in pruning juniper. Close up images of a branch and where and what you are cutting back for different stages of development and refinement. Enjoyed the video as always friend

    styling juniper still frightens me a bit. I do have a juniper that I'll be airlayering into three next year but I just let it grow at this moment. I'll have to take the leap at some point.

      soweit ich das beurteilen kann 2 teile lava, 1 teil kokosfasern und 1 teil tongranulat. lava und ton sind seramis denke ich, verwende ich selber auch. gibts in fast jedem baumarkt mit pflanzenabteilung. und das umtopfen würde mich auch interessieren welche jahreszeit das gemacht wurde, kennen es nur im frühling und herbst.

      Hi Joe, I have diatomous earth, which is sold as kittylitter locally, as well as the branch ceramis which are just small baked clay particles. I never took the deep dive to figure out what that is..

    Good work brother. But you probably should be wearing gloves when handling soil and/or various bonsai substrates. Just I've seen and researched soils and all the tiny little monsters that are in it under microscope in the lab for years and I've seen the nasty nasty and very dangerous sort of infections and such that people pick up from handling soil and potting mediums and from working in it in the garden without protection. Especially if you've got any tiny little scratches and cuts and open wounds that they could get in.
    Seriously bro it's better to be over careful than under, and find out the hard way. They're often very resistant to antibiotics too so....
    Anyway love the content and sharing your expertise, so stay safe so can bring more. Haha. thankyou. Bri
