A rule of thumb about choosing a bonsai pot: once the tree is its final size, the pot should only be as deep as the thickest part of the trunk is wide. It’s traditional for growers to make the pot themselves out of clay, or select a pot with special meaning to it if they’re not good at making pottery. People are often surprised by how shallow final bonsai pots are, in comparison to normal plant pots. Some small bonsai have pots that are only an inch or a few centimeters deep or so.
@h...........................The trunk will thicken much more and much faster if a bonsai is kept in a deeper pot. However, this may ruin the shape as it will allow much more room for the tree to grow, therefore allow more foliage to grow. Possibly ruining the shape.
I kept an eye out for out of the way nursery plants that had been ignored, spending more time in a small pot causing shorter growth and a bigger trunk. I found a Red Stopper that was an absolute natural. I didn't wire and only did a little pruning and root reveal. After potting and moss it looked right out of a fairy tale. The plant continued to look healthy and happy till I moved. My earlier experience with a Jade plant falling apart showed that a hearty species would save me much..heart ache. Nice video!
Jade plants (crassula or "hens & chicks" folk name) are actually very hardy plants. They are susceptible to weird disease and water logging, humidity, stuff like that though. I had a 30 year Jade bonsai, but a truly evil, crazy, psychotic ex-girlfriend happened to it. She poured bleach in it. Who does that? Oh yeah, a truly evil woman.
I am going to plant a bonsai next year ... And yep... I wanna start from scratch. Idc how long it takes...i wanna do it myself... So I'll be back on this channel next year for sure
Yeah I'm friggin back. But my parents ain't allowing me to make a bonsai (some vastu reasons idk) 🗿😭. (I wanted to take it to my college... See it grow w me and all that stuff but ugh)
I got a bonsai kit a couple years ago and it was a surprising and interesting gift to receive... Especially considering my living circumstances at the time. But this week, I finally planted 2/4 varieties that it came with. I'm excited to begin this journey and glad I found a resource like you guys! I'll be checking back soon to buy tools and maybe enroll in the course. 🙏🏽✨
Year and maybe u will have something reasoble in 50 years .. read learn which kind might be suitable for you and buy a middle grown bonsai and you will full enjoy your hobby .. most of people does not understand that starting from seed and according the variety of plant and climate it might take 1 life to get some result
I was in Seúl many years ago visiting an old town and the house looked like the one you have there. It was snowing and inside the house was very warm. It had an ancient heater underneath the house and the warm air went into de house. I thought it was very cool 😎
Tropical bonsai are managed and styled very differently from the temperate trees and shrubs that are traditionally used for bonsai. It is not true that you can style, prune, and wire tropical trees and shrubs for bonsai year round, because even most tropical woody plants make seasonal root and top growth, or grow in distinct flushes. The few nearly continuous growers, such as Serissa, grow so quickly that they need regular pruning and styling year round. Despite this, they do not grow into full sized bonsai any faster than their temperate counterparts.
The spruce here is a Norway Spruce (Picea abies), known as a White Spruce or European Spruce in Europe, and is probably the cultivar 'Nidiformis' ('Nest formed'). As a bonsai subject, P. abies has the very desirable characteristic of rooting easily from cuttings, thus specimens free of graft scars are readily available at low cost.
I am drooling over that bonsai container .. its elevated, it appears to be porous. Really looks like a great container for getting that soil at a great moisture level! 🤤.. I might need help picking my jaw back up..
Nice video as a total novice it gives me hope. Would like to enrol on the coarse. I've just bought a nursery grown shrub which looks exactly like this guy's. It's July can I start doing what he has done now to his shrub/tree. Thanks
Terms like dirt and gravel are a bit tricky as they can mean many things. We recommend using an inorganic mix of Akadama, Pumice and Lavarock in equal parts.
@@bonsaiempire ok. thank you. Thats basically what I use. I guess dirt was a bad choice of words. Some of the bonsai's that I see look more like "potting soil." Than the mixture you mention. Last question if you don't mind. I purchased a Ficus as nursery stock. Is this a bad time of year to re-pot from potting soil to a bonsai pot?
Dummy here, how did you determine the first root? I see you scratch seay some soil but it wasn't clear. I am getting started with this hobby soon so I am doing a lot of research. Thank u
Oh my god.. what an amazing skill.. i am a bonsai lover too.. and i love to search the suiseki too. I film it when i searched 1 in the river on my channel

It depends how big your bonsai is, it can usually take a few months at least from my experience, but I have a smaller one. The wires can stay on for a long time just make sure to keep an eye on the branches, if you leave them on too long, and the trunk grows too big for the wires they can dig into the branches causing scars. What I like to do is leave a little slack in the wires so they have room to grow.
@@JennyCecilil actually there is a "growth" season. You put the wires on just before growth season and take them off after. Depending on your climate is when your growth season is.
I have a few questions I'm planning to do this hobby. 1. What is the easiest plant to practice? 2. How long the wires will going to stay on the plant? 3. Can I do this indoor during the winter?
Sure! 1. Indoors; ficus, outdoors perhaps a Juniper 2. Long story short - it depends! You will need to monitor your tree (see our latest uploaded video about unwiring for more) 3. Indoor (living room) is only ok for a handful of species (Ficus, Carmona..)
Now I can’t stop watching Bonsai videos. I have bought 3 from this guy at The Florida State Fair - 1 every year and I took such good care but I have killed them all, argh. One turned yellow - yes yellow. I guess maybe I watered it to much. I had one that turned orange- I think I put to much food pellets in soil. The 3rd one made it about 7 months and it even grew for a while. I would take them out and let them get sunlight for about an hour or 2 every other day and would water it about every 2-3 days. Kept soil damp. I don’t have the heart to get another one. When they died I felt like I betrayed Mother Nature
Maybe buy your bonsai from a different seller. No offense to this channel but this video is widely inaccurate. It is not an acceptable practise to sheer roots of a tree to make it into a bonsai tree. It can cause disease for the tree. I recommend going to a bonsai specialist and purchasing one there, and speaking to the owner. Most specialists recommend you take the bonsai to them for pruning and checking the plants health once every 3-6 months. Good luck.
Best is to spread out your work a bit. Repotting definitely in early spring, and then ideally wiring and pruning a few months later. If you know exactly what you're doing, you can do things at the same time, but never do too much as it will slow down the progress of the tree or even kill it.
A lot of people here are saying "that's not a bonsai!" or "it's just a fancy bush" so first off, a bonsai is a tree trained into shape to be a miniature version of the adult tree, or in some cases like show here a miniature version of another species, this is the beginning of a bonsai, not a finished one. the trunk will become more thick over time and the canopy will start to take on more of an umbrella shape. (if that's what this person is going for)
Well, bonsai can be a lot of things and we all have our preferences. On our channel here we have a lot of examples/styles/tree species so there's something for everyone ;-)
Hola Excelente, trabajo felicitaciones por el vídeo se aprecia en detalles la poda, él alambrado, y la preparación de la maceta. Saludos desde Mendoza Argentina.
Thank you for your patience and the explanations kindly provided by you...can you guide me in an aspect regarding the care of these miniatures of nature? Concretely, I was instructed to make a bonsai pot myself, using sand and construction cement..I think that the substances that make up the cement powder are harmful to the bonsai roots, especially in combination with the nutrients that will have to be applied, according to their instructions on the label..what do you think about this subject, which began to be considered a "cheaper" possibility when purchasing a specific bonsai pot? I am not a seller or influencer for none of the possibilities: purchasing from specialized stores or making these dishes yourself... Until you have time to answer me, you or other people with experience in growing bonsai, I will use plastic boxes from ice cream...thank you for your kindness
The benefit of ceramics is mostly aesthetic - but if you need to save money perhaps build wooden boxes that at least breath a bit. Bonsai pots can be rather cheap though!
@@bonsaiempire Good idea, thanks for it...hard wood boxes, joined with cylindrical wooden "rivets"...for two ficus microcarpa plants I think it's enough, until I find an amount of money available for at least one of them...not everyone has money for every pleasure and thank you very much for your idea

No plant has a "final size", they will continue to grow forever as long as they are maintained correctly.
the entire point of a bonsai is to stunt their growth...@@DeadBeatLoser69

Yes we will, two years after this repotting it will be planted in a slightly shallower pot.

@@GabrielAlves-yo2sn i think it slows down the rapid growth of the trees, and the shallow pots make it just stay albout the same siz

Beautiful tree 🌳 my friend nice job 👍🏽
you make bonsai precisely and carefully
Can I use a Dwarf Alberta Spruce (that’s the only spruce at Home Depot) and I’m new to this?
Of course - if you think the plant has potential and is affordable for your budget, go for it!
In Asia you can buy a lot of affordable starter bonsai like the finished one here. Much easier to start with.
Sheesh the tree’s fresh cut is clean
it is true that science is very useful for beginners. thank you very much .. explain in detail. success for Bonsai Empire👍😍

What type of soil?
Awesome bonsai work
Thanks a lot
wow!!!!!!! I wish my bonsai look like that......
Some Bonsai take over 50 years and can cost a million dollars, but you can clearly tell this was only $20 and super easy
That's because bonsai is living art. If he takes care of this tree it will rise in value over time. This is only the start of this work of art

Hello!
Which wire size and scissors size did you use in this video?
Nice! 👌🏼
This guy is Dutch, right?! 😁👍🏻✌🏼
Yes 😁
What happens when we remove the wire? Does the shape still retain? Would there be a need to rewire?
Well it depends, often you'll want to wire it again at some point to add more refinement.
