As a beginner I find it interesting when you go through your thought process. Thanks.
Thank you for your kind words!
Very interesting demonstration . I think you should also acknowledge the person who is doing the camera work. Challenging work but a good job. 🎉
"Milton Chang Special" LOL, brilliant.
Thank you!
I have believe i have fallen in love with bonsai.
I'm glad!
Very detailed instructions.
It helps a newbie on bonsai like me.
Thank you sir
That's great to hear! I hope more people take up bonsai as a hobby. With time, you won't be a newbie anymore!
I noticed your logo on the pot when you were showing this video ? Nice looking pot!
I like what you do with ordinary stock from the big box stores, you make it look easy enough for a Newby to try.
Thank you, stay tuned for more videos!
One thing I've always kept in mind. Nature. Animals eat the bottom the plant shoots up, if the eat the top it bushes out of the bottom.
Super informative. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and techniques. I love how you turned nursery stock into very nice trees. 🫶👍
Thanks so much!
At first when you mentioned about killing several trees in your journey, I just accepted it as fact, but now I’m understanding more and more. Thank you again my friend

Thank you for watching!
Very nice!!
Thank you!
I am not a creative person and I struggle a lot with vision but I've still decided to take up bonsai for some reason haha. I'm killing trees left and right and styling progression is very slow but I'm enjoying myself and that's what matters. I'll keep going and will improve some day!
That's now I started too! I killed a lot of trees when I first started doing bonsai, but I learned a lot through trial and error. Here I am today! I encourage you to keep going and keep me updated on your progress :)
Some say that’s the only way to learn bonsai properly I believe that’s true but watching videos of the same species of people who know what they’re doing can help guide you immensely. I used to prune my roots right back and they died every time. Now I only prune what I don’t need and if it’s a lot I’ll leave them for next repot. Sometimes by then the roots I was going to remove look good now anyway
Thanks for sharing👍❤
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for explaining what you are thinking. And why you cut what you cut. Thanks

"the age of a tree is like lady's, it is not polite to ask. -Dr. Chan"
Thank you for the demo. A quick question, for the third maple, the truck and primary branches almost do not taper (while it is true that the trunk is thicker than the branches). Is that a consideration for you and how would you deal with that as this bonsai matures? Thanks.
It tapers some, but not very much…and then start tapering above the first branches. It is OK if it is not obviously counter to what occurs in nature. This is pretty much the same with most landscaping trees.
👍👌🙂
would you use any sealant for the breaking points on the second tree?
Hi there! No, I don't use sealant on my trees because I prefer the natural look. My goal is for my trees to emulate nature. Thanks for watching!
What are you feeding your trees with."😎Dennis
I have used slow release fertilizer, chicken manure pellets, now I use fish and kelp per instruction once a week. Will reduce to every other week when cooler, and stop all together for about three months in the winter.
The trunkage tells me that its more than 3years old 😎
The problem I have with nursery stock is the trees are often 2 to 3 feet tall before the first branch. I usually have to cut it off and get new branches to form lower down. Such a long process and a long wait before I can actually do anything with the tree. Any suggestions?
You can force the bottom to branch out by cutting the truck to about 60% of the final bonsai height. Select one of the top branches to grow tall and thick and cut it again. It may be easier for me to do a video and show you how the tree develops over time.
@@bonsaiheirloom That would be fantastic! Thank you!
what about a branch splitter tool?
Hey, you are an inventor! Go for it!
Hello. How to reduce the size of the leafs?? Greetings from Poland❤
Good question! I have an answer to this in my Q&A this week!
When do you put the tree in a bonsai pot?
Great question! I will answer it in my upcoming Q&A
How are these trees doing now? I want to do some Home Depot maples 🍁
