Something i would like to add to what i said in this video: When you move into the branch refinement stage you should also be moving the tree into full refinement at this point. So out of your growing container and into a Bonsai Pot with inorganic soils. This will help keep the growth tight and short out on the tips.
Interesting, this clarified for me that I've made the mistake of moving my juniper into a bonsai pot with inorganic soil before having even developed and refined it! That would explain why it isn't as full and lively as I'd expect this Spring. Thanks!
THanks Josh, great stuff again. Would like to see more on the pad creation end of things. Maybe with some real trees, if drawing them is a bit of a challenge? 😀
@@BonsaiEn awesome, thanks mate. Also wanted to say thanks for your podcast. I went up to Bonsai World on the weekend and spent way too much $. But now I have some really inspiring trees to work on, including a casuarina. Have you done any vids on those? Also, I'd love to ask your advice on my junipers if I could? I'm kinda stuck with the 2 that I have and need some good advice re: shaping. Cheers, Matt.
Great explanation on pad development. I got a late start into bonsai, and my trees are still "young" pre-bonsai junipers. I have had to temper my desire to jump in prematurely and start clipping, cutting, and bending and simply spend the time allowing the tree to gain size, branching, and thickness. I did repot as the soil they came in was quite questionable, put them into training pots that allow great drainage and air flow, and have been feeding with fish emulsion and liquid kelp. They're already looking bushier and I hope to begin seeing additional branch development.
Really liked this video! It actually explained how I can grow my nursery bought juniper for few yrs to get a bonsai material which I can finally work on, fortunately I saw this video before going straight towards wiring my juniper, now I know it ll take probably few yrs before they are ready for wiring
So, I have been wondering how to get the foliage pads so tight. I've watched other videos on creating tree pads. None of them, until this one, talked about creating a bonsai with proper pads by using the three steps to grow the tree, branches and pads. The additional comment below is important because you talked about when to put the tree into a bonsai pot and inorganic soil to keep the growth tight and short. I have never heard that before. Most of mine are in baskets of one sort or another for air pruning for trunk development, but I've never really known when the tree should go into a bonsai pot. This information is essential and I thank you so much for putting this out there. You did explain this very well, by the way.
Josh, this is the best information explaining it in the basic way of understanding and I appreciate it so much, it all makes perfect sense now watching this. Keep up this brilliant blogs mate 👌👌
Aussie Dave here Josh, wow another awesome video on the fundamentals of bonsai 👍🤗. Line 2 on the white board (wirering) was fantastic. I wish I seen your video before I tried to wire my 1 year old jacarandas ... with my wirering I nearly tore off the Camballin layer of the trees . Even now after 2 years they are heavily scared 😪.. Again very well presented..
Thanks mate for sharing this amazing video. You actually showed the process of creating a Juniper bonsai, I was so confused before because most people on youtube just show an already grown 30,40,50 year old tree and they just chop branches and do some wiring to create pads and jins etc and there you go a finished bonsai. That's very stupid in my opinion ,they don't show the process just the fun parts to create a juniper bonsai. Thank you
I've been a fan of your Modern Bonsai podcast, thanks for making videos to help explain these topics. We see a lot of reporting videos going from nursery pot to bonsai pot, one suggestion I would have is making a video about going between, or back to, nursery pots. :)
This was really helpful. My first juniper ever is in development right now, and I am going to prune it for the first time soon. You’re videos have let me know how to clean the tree in the summer, but also what to aim for in future years as it develops. Thanks!
Again, great detailed info. I've been trying for almost 2 decades, and as I've stated in other posts, my collection is a monument to my mistakes, year after year, and a showing of how little information I had. Your explanations are spot on and great knowledge base for people trying to achieve results. My only problem was in your explantions of cutting the branches to create the desired ramification on Junipers, it would be helpful to maybe have an actual branch to show where the ideal cut should be made. Other then that, I've learned something today. After almost 20 years of trying. Thanks mate!!! Looking forward to more!
Your video's are great man! it really helps to see the steps to take and also the visual part in creating/developing your bonsai. I understand it better than just watching someone cut their tree!
Absolutely brilliant!!! Thanks so much! Will have to rework my juniper in the coming spring. And also move two of my junipers in to plant pots to help growth. Wouldn't have done this, if I didn't watch your videos!
Hi Patricia, we have a whole beginners course which is taught in this format at www.thebonsaidojo.com we find people pick up fundamental techniques quicker this way.
great explaination and clear logical structure to the video. I have a much clearer understanding of juniper branch development. thank you for the videos
This was very easy to understand, thank you! It answered some questions I had about ramification and pruning on junipers so thank you! The drawing and white board help a lot as well! If you could do any more videos about pruning junipers and development that would be great! Some deciduous trees refinement and ramification process videos would be great too
Cheers for the video bro been a great help would love to see a similar video for pines. Also one on rafts would be great there are videos out there but none have much depth to them.
One question I'm hoping you can clarify for me: When we're working on creating taper on the major branches, you said to let a branch grow to its desired thickness and then cut it back (6:36 in the video). Do I understand correctly that this cut should be made to significantly shorten the major branch, and then emerging growth from one of the new resulting buds eventually "becomes the branch" and will recreate branch length as it grows out? Hope that question makes sense. Thanks so much for the high quality content - your channel is a tremendous resource!
That is correct, you grow the branch out long until the thickness at the base of the branch is reached, then you can cut the branch back and grow on from new buds to create taper.
The white board is great but I also think you should use an actual tree to show what you mean afterwards. I think it would help the people starting out, understand easier. Just an idea anyways... either way, your videos are awesome and I thank you for doing them!
Hi Josh thanks for the video I found it very helpful! I have a formal upright Chinese Juniper and wondered if you still need to wire the branches in a twisting shape as you did on this vid? The branches on mine come out straight and horizontal from the trunk and now might be too thick to bend, but I'm concerned that I won't be able to achieve well-shaped pads if I can't correct this. Many thanks
Your Branches will look better if they can be wired down and with some movement in them, there are options to do this which can be in the form of using raffia over the branch to bend it or if the branch is too thick to be physically bent you can use branch splitter to split the branch on the underside to help give it some flex. Although the last method is an advanced technique and you may need someone to help you. Raffia is a simple process though. Check out our video on juniper maintenance and raffia application.
thanks man you helped me a lot.. i still a beginner. i wish i found you video a little bit sooner because i already cut all the foilage and only left the foilage at the end of the trunk.. 😔 btw can you explain about the fertilizer for 2 seasons country and what fertilizer are best for asian 2 seasons country.. 🙇🏾♂️🙇🏾♂️
We have here in the states the izelli nursery and they put it out pre material. Is it possible to do a video on a coiled Black pine. And how to develop its branches
Thanks for the great information and demystifying junipers. I am wondering if you or anyone can clarify regarding getting branches on those outside bends? Do those new branches come from individual needles you leave on? I guess I am wondering if in the drawing those are individual needles you refer to as foliage to either leave on or remove?
Josh that was a great video mate. Super clear to understand. Thanks for sharing! Can you possibly share what fertiliser/s you use? I'm in Aus so can source the same. If you have a video or link on this please share it Thanks
Thanks for the feedback mate. When it comes to fertiliser it is on a use by use basis, i cant give you 1 cover all fertiliser. You need to learn what each component of the fertiliser does for a tree then decide what to use based on the goals you are trying to achieve. im usually mixing my own fertilisers for specific results. maybe i need to do a fertiliser specific video in the same kind of format.
@@BonsaiEn that would be really helpful. Be mindful however that if you make anything too difficult then most people won't do it. I'd your target is professional bonsai people then maybe. But, anyone like me who is an amateur, I'm never going to mix my own. Unless I can easily get the 3-4 ingredients and it's an easy mix. I'd guess majority of people want a simple solution that will get them most of the way there. 80:20 rule. My bonsai aren't going to shows, I just want them to be healthy and grow well. Hope that makes sense.
I just rewatched your video on how to get bigger thicker trunks and I had a question on the part where you said you could chop off the top portion of the tree (around 24:10 in that other video) after it was done being used for development. Would it be possible to air layer it as to not waste that part of the tree? And if you could when would be the best time to do so? Thanks btw😁
Hello! Any recommendations if we have long lignified branches without interior foliage to cut back to? Whats the best way to generate backbuds, let it grow and fertilize heavy? Or I guess grafting would be another option?
I'm not sure, but I think to produce badbuds, the tree needs to have more root than foliage. The tree will produce backbud to create a balance and photosynthesise the excess amount of energy coming from the roots. Do you have a big pot? It also needs light. Buds wont develop if the branch is in the shade surrounded by foliage and the tree may neglect lower branches to focus on vertical growth, in search of best light.
Great video thanks, exactly what I needed to know to help develop my juniper. Just one slip up , you said we could use liquid nitrogen hahahh I dont think that would end well hahaha but I knew what you were meaning i just thought it was funny
You can Actually Buy Nitrogen Fertiliser as a Liquid Fertiliser. It makes the nitrogen immediately available to the tree as oppose to waiting for organic fertiliser to break down.
Dumb newbie question: how am I supposed to put movement in the trunk if it hasn’t ever been pruned because I’m trying to let it grow so the trunk gets bigger?
Hi Chris, it's important to have trunk movement put in when the tree is young. Once a tree gets too thick it's hard to fix a straight trunk. This is why bonsai material is more expensive the regular nursery plants as they have had lots of work done since a young age. If a tree already has a thick trunk you will need to style the tree around that straight trunk, so maybe a slanting design or a formal upright.
@@BonsaiEn I have 4 small trees growing that haven’t been wired at all. I’ve pruned 2 of them but am unsure how much to prune on the other 2 (different species). Should I shape the trunk with wire now or let them grow out so the trunk gets bigger 1st?
So u saying people can't just have a Bonsai in a month or so? This takes years and years?...the GenZ kids or w.e. are screwed they can't wait for their phones to load lol.. Great video man I loved it and learned alot
We live in an age of instant gratification and Bonsai teaches us a harsh lesson all about patience. You can see it in the quality of the trees of those who don't understand that concept though. Thanks for Watching!
What you not telling here is that the hardest part will be to balance top and bottom part of the tree, when top will be growing really fast and the bottom can even die back. Energy ballance especially can be seen in growing cascade style. The bottom part will be always have lack of strength and the top part will always have to much of it, rebalance of the tree is something that must be done all the time or your bottom branches always will be weak and in bad shape.
Im in the middle of writing my dot points on the white board now and will hopefully get it all filmed today, scheduled release should be Sunday. All though its not a development specific video it is going to cover a large amount of care points for Japanese Black Pine. This one will probably be a big one.

How do you go about changing the soil on junipers who cannot be bare rooted?
Nice job dude
Nailed it on the simplicity of understanding how the structure
Of bonsai is created thanks
Your diagrams and explanation gave this beginner that wonderful flash of understanding. Sincere thanks !

SPOT ON!!
Excellent video. I shared it with my bonsai club.
Very well explained. Thank you
It would be really good to see a pad creation video where you demonstrate it as I'm still a little confused as to how the structure should be wired.
ill put that in mind for a future video!

Hi Martin, we have a black pine crash course on our channel which is in a similar format.
Thank you for a very useful video. I wonder if you can use a 3D discrition such as use the wire to simulate a pad, that would be great.
Nice for growth ✨️
