      Sounds like a great idea! I hope to visit Nottingham and Greenwood Bonsai Studio and maybe meet Corin Tomlinson. Like the easy reggae music that plays when showing fast forwarded work on a tree.

    I finally discovered that the KW Bonsai Society has a Facebook page. Now that I'm back on Facebook, I've gone ahead and "liked" the page so I can get information on upcoming meetings and the like.

    Fabulous tree!🌳 I like the view at 33:05 very much. In this view you can see into the many trunks and there is much too see and much depth in the trunk. The root base with the long partly crossing roots in this view is also great in my opinion. The current front is great, too, but in another way. It is more like a wall.

    Loved the videos for about 4 years now and this particular channel inspires me.
    I am attempting something barely heard of on You Tube. Im beginning a bonsai made from Pothos that I braided together. I havent seen any updates on the initial care, but im hoping to make a video or 20 about its progress. Once it roots, ill be filming updates of the pruning and growth.

    Been binging your vids for the last 2 weeks, I really enjoy your content and love seeing the passion you have for the plants.
    Will start my own Bonsai journey in our Spring. You totally inspired me.
    Much love from South Africa❤️🇿🇦🇨🇦

    Oh I didn't know Mr. Busch has books published in English, too. He's the owner of the bonsai nursery in my hometown!
    Last time I was there in spring and that time got myself my first little trident maple. It's a great nursery with many beautiful trees.

    I deliberately put mantis ovae around my garden, and my pots. they are good at thoroughly eliminating other insects, like spiders, wasps, ants. they don't bite and look really cool too)))

    Have you ever watched a channel called Weird Explorer? It is not actually weird, just a bit unusual. The channel is run by Jared Rydelek who tastes all different kinds of fruit. Sometimes he travels and finds interesting fruit or he orders them on the internet or looks around in markets or ethnic stores in New York. Then he makes videos about the fruit, reviews the taste and tells a little bit about the plants that produce these fruits. You should collaborate with him and get the seeds. He has already tasted very many fruit - the jackfruit among them. But it seems that there are soooo many different fruit and their varieties in this world. It is amazing.

  • @scratchpadski9094

    Great video, the large root pruning you did definitely looked better afterward. Also, fun to see an idea for water retention being implemented using tin foil,i just might try that!

    It's now jackfruit season in India........ Very delicious fruit. Seeds can be cooked with vegetables removing the thin seed cover it's also delicious. Raw jackfruit can be cook as a vegetable .......but it has to boil before cooking since it has some latex like substance.

    If you want to make pot covers/shades that will last longer, you should consider getting a roll of Mylar. It's sorta plasticy with foil like reflectivity. It's what they use on spacecraft for a similar purpose. It's also the same stuff they make "emergency blankets" out of.

    Beginners advice: don't use bonsai pots if you don't have great overwintering options and you live north of Virginia.
    I've lost so many good trees in the Pennsylvania winter. This isn't Japan.
