I accidentally snapped the top growth of one of the two root over rock pines I bought. I was attempting to wire it and add movement. I have a couple of smaller branches at the bottom, but now I'm bummed out that I set back the growth. The other one is doing ok and have it sitting on a rock ready for development.
It's a 16" plant tray/saucer, normally used for houseplants etc. I got that at a hydro supply store, but there are tons on Amazon and online. amzn.to/3Glli5d
70-80% perlite and 20-30% coco coir. But, I'm finding after a few years that the coir breaks down too much so I've started adding fir bark recently. Like 30% fir bark, 20% coco and 50% perlite. This video was done before I started doing that.
Actually, there are different patterns of yellowing. If the base of the needles is yellow but the tip is darker, that is normally overwatering, or another root problem (like aphids, rot etc.) If the needles are uniformly yellow-ish, then it is normally too little water or lack of fertilizer. In this case, I think it was actually too little water and fertilizer, because the soil mix was too lean - e.g. too much perlite and not enough coco coir. Which makes it hold onto less nutrients in my experience. Thanks for your comment!
Had to google that. No, at least not on purpose. But, lately I've been listening to a podcast called "Swindled" which you can also find here on UA-cam: ua-cam.com/users/swindledpodcast The ambient music in the background is bespoke, by Trevor Howard (Deformr) but I've never chased him up. I like the way that the low-volume background music creates a bit more cohesion and ambiance. If you have suggestions for background music LMK.
The two songs are listed in the description if you want to chase up the creator (the first one is just the opening bit, it's the second you're talking about.)
Good info on root development…appreciate seeing the steps with your commentary.
Another superb video. I'm loving your content. Very well filmed, and packed with inspiration!
Mr Erick thankyou for explanation and the tutorial.have a nice day.
Great follow up vidd, thanks for taking time to put together.

Thanks Eric. Excellent as always 👌
Thank you so much for the video....

What are you using for soil? Looks to be a lot of larger sized pumice. You mentioned coconut and am assuming coir?
Thank you for your help
Perlite and coco coir. But for the portion that you expose pumice, lava or other coarse materials can all be fine.
What are you using as a chopstick? It looked like a carpenter's pencil almost.
Great content btw!
Nevermind, I see now. It's tweezers! LOL
Doing root works on these guys are OK around this time?
I love the round tray you're using for a work table. Where would I be able to find one like that?
Thanks,

@@Bonsaify Thank you I appreciate that you take the time to answer your fans questions.

It looks like you use a lot of perlite. What is your soil mix?
70-80% perlite and 20-30% coco coir. But, I'm finding after a few years that the coir breaks down too much so I've started adding fir bark recently. Like 30% fir bark, 20% coco and 50% perlite. This video was done before I started doing that.

No.3 tree is yellow because usually too much water.

Are you using binaural beats in your background music?
Had to google that. No, at least not on purpose. But, lately I've been listening to a podcast called "Swindled" which you can also find here on UA-cam: ua-cam.com/users/swindledpodcast

@@Bonsaify it’s a binaural beat for sure. I could feel the vibration while listening. It’s all good though

Мастер скажите,сосны у вас тоже в перлите с кокосом растут?
We have a video on soil: ua-cam.com/video/jaTZHXKPFeU/v-deo.html
