    Finally someone that shows a full progression. Anything else is just a trim video claiming how to start a bonsai or make a bonsai. this gives a great idea to new comers to try it on their own. Yes it takes time but people only ever show trimming YEARS apart.

    Cutting almost all roots on the 2nd plant - BALLS dude. Also such aggressive trimming on the 1st plant but I noticed every time it came back, the small branch was bigger. I am an experienced gardener but new to the Bonsai game so I'm still studying. I have learned more from your video than anything I have watched on UA-cam. You know your shit. Keep up the good work!

    I'm figuring out what hobby I want to pick up and Bonsai seems really cool - I'm already into growing succulents and have been doing that (poorly lol) for about two years so I like things that stay small and take a long time to grow. I've watched a dozen bonsai videos or so now but this one made it seem soooooo cool and science-projecty and I absolutely love the colors! Thanks for this video, really shows off what attracts me to caring for bonsai in the first place

    But maybe you can give more time to grow a new leader before next pruning. It'll smoothen the trunk faster for more natural look.

  • @benclancy557
    @benclancy557 5 років тому

    I loved your video! the timestamped updates, the captions explaining your thought process, the methodical way you shot the tree at each step, and your
    detailed list of tools in your description are all things that i wish every youtube bonsai-er did.
    That being said, I'd advise not pruning your tree so frequently in the future, especially if you're trying to do something like a ground layer. especially with 100% indoor growth, you should be trying to maximize the growth potential of your tree at all times, not keep it in a continuous state of recovery. you pruned april '17, june '17, september '17, march '18, april '18, june '18, september '18, and sometime between september '18 and january '19. 8 pruning sessions in under 2 years would still be a lot for an outdoor chinese elm, let alone an indoor one. If it were mine, I wouldn't have pruned before layering in april '17 all the way through april '18, then checked the roots. I'd bet that that would've been enough time for the unrestricted growth to facilitate tons of new roots forming at the layer sites. then i'd sever the old root system, gently repot, and let it go without pruning again for another 6-8 months. then before spring '19, do a hard chop. you'd have gotten the same ramification, but with significantly better wound healing and branch thickening, as well as it already being on a better rootsystem.
    Subscribed, looking forward to seeing how those chili fusions turn out!

      How often would you prune an outdoor Chinese elm that only has the usual repotting and root pruning once every 2 years?
      I've heard people say you have to trim every 3 months, but it does seem like a lot.
      I've been pruning mine hard in winter, then trimming back to 2 or 3 sets of leaves in summer every year...

    I'm impressed that your tree lived through all that was done to it. My question is why did you do all that to it? From the beginning to the end of your video, I can't see that the tree has made any progress. All the tree's energy has been spent on simply trying to recover and survive. You still have basically the same little tree that you started with. I mean no offense. I'm just trying to understand the point of doing what you did.
