Treating A Sick Japanese Black Pine Bonsai
Japanese Black Pine Bonsai are susceptible to certain fungal issues like tip blight and often take a long time to treat and bring back to optimal health. In this video we show you the last stitch effort to rid a pine of tip blight by allowing its root system to grow free and gain more strength for the tree to fight the infection naturally.

Teach us Master Josh !
Thank you !
If you have a drill, drill a little pilot hole with the drill bit before screwing your little grow box together IF you dont want the wood to split like it did in this video.
Another excellent video. Thank you!
Thanks for the great video & great choice for music as well.
Nice job, Josh. Thanks for sharing
Awesome video again and great song choice. Even if this concept isn't applicable to myself, I think it has some really valuable information for new and old growers!
Took a minute to find it but “Alright Years - Say Yea” is now in my Spotify list. Lol.
Great video. Can you follow up on it? What happened with the tree?
There's a plan to do a follow up video with it soon. It's just had a change of substrate to start getting it ready to move towards being a Bonsai again.
dank u
Another excellent video, be good to see it's progress.
Let's hope that progress is positive!
Great video, informative, and the box build and wire removal montages were fun!
Garden material. Here in Florida most would plant that in the ground. Why waste time with junk when you can get 4 layers of branching in a 6 inch tall JPB?
Diagnosing before looking at the roots?
Very informative!
Very interesting video!👍👍👍
When you got the tree out of the pot, the roots looked very healthy all around, as you pointed out. Why, therefore, did you conclude that it is a root problem causing your tip blight and why did you continue to repot the tree out of season?
I didn’t take from the video that the cause of the fungus was from poor roots. The fungus was from excessive moisture and lack of sunlight. The point of the repot was to allow the roots to grow even more and provide more oxygen and drainage so that the tree gains strength to fight off the infection
Joel is 100% correct. The reason for putting the tree in the box and kiryu was to Increase the amount of space and oxygen to allow the root system to expand. In Bonsai we restrict a trees root system to keep it small but by doing this we also restrict its ability to fight off infection efficiently. Because the chemical treatment didn't completely rid the tree of the infection and I'm starting to see it in the new needles I need to give the tree its root system back so it can take back control of its health.
Why not use sphagnum moss for encouraging root growth or am I swearing?
It also works great on air layering.
Awesome info!
If you chop the roots, you should prune the leaves as well.
Damaged roots means lack of nutrients which means death of leaves.
Pruning lots of leaves as well, stalls growth EVENLY on both ends, and puts the whole plant into recovery mode as opposed to just the roots unexpectedly, which would shock all the leaves simultaneously.
Thanks for the video.... wondering what type of treated pine was used to make the box and do any of the treated-pine (CCA) chemicals affect the roots/tree for this or any other plants
What substrate did you use .. And thanks for the nice video👍👍
It's called Kiryu.
I would have soaked the tree roots in water while wiring the box. Maybe even add sum of my rooting hormone. What do you think about that?
I don't know about this black pine tree...
What I know in Indonesia is that the pine trees that are made into bonsai are called "cemara udang" whether it's black pine or other pines..
I do not know for sure
Cemara udang is not a pine, their scientific name is Casuarina equisetifolia. Black pine is Pinus thunbergii, White pine is Pinus strobus. Pine tree have "Pinus" on their name.
Pinus merkusii is a Sumatran pine, that can be found in Indonesia.
@@angryzombie8088 thank you sir...
I am indonesia..
I am sory...
Because don't know that
@@PutuBonsai No problem, the local name are usually confusing & not correct, so its always better to check the scientific name of the tree.
@@angryzombie8088 thank you sir
Thanks for the video. Just wonder if its safe to keep the tree in Kirio, as its supposed to be acidic?
Kiryu is only slightly acidic, it is commonly used in Japan on its own to grow black pine, some nursery's mix it with Akadama. In general I use Kiryu in a mix and only in this situation on its own.
@@BonsaiEn will it be a good idea to start seedlings in pure kirio?
Great video! I have a question about soil for pine trees. Would 50% macadam, 50% bark as soil be possible for bonsai pine? If not then why? Im greatful för answer🙂
Wow mantap
Hi. How's the tree doing?
What is the name of the substrate he uses? I think I recognize kitty. Kitty u? My try with kitty litter turned up a ball clay
Kiryu, pronounced ( Kiddy You ). Some places list it as Kiryu Zuna.
The name of the soil you used how do you spell it.
Nicee video brother
In a month that’s a weekly rain full here in England 😂
You guys must live under water? One of our towns completely disappeared. I was up to my knees in water out checking on trees haha.
@@BonsaiEn 😂 you could say that I don’t know if you have ever been here ? but if not let’s just say England isn’t known for its good weather 😂 I think from Christmas to now we only had two maybe three days it didn’t rain by where I live
What chemical did you use?
It's called kocide blue.
Want to watch but the music is making me so depressed
You youngsters are fun to watch…but after over 35 years into bonsai l realize learning on your own and each climate differs into growth rate of tree and maintaining. Nothing you say really applies here in Florida. I can grow a 4 tiered branching JBP in less than 2 years.
