    In my opinion this is one of the best bonsai channels out there. I like his pragmatic approach. He explains everything very easy to understand, he doesn´t tell you to get tons of expensive tools, no spechial soils that are hard to get and so on. Just simple advise that wil get you to your goal.
    I´m just getting into bonsai and his videos are very helpful.

    Rhizopon is available to the general public here in the USA. He is using the % 0.3 concentrated form for the new cuttings. Rhizopon is available in 3 different percentages --- % 0.1, % 0.3 and % 0.8 for the most difficult cuttings.

    I am doing the same thing as we speak! I am just about to collect cuttings from magnolia, redwood and bald cypress from the city parks around me. I was wondering on the success rate you get with a seeding try that is full? So a tray of 100 cuttings how many (rough estimate) will root? And is it different between deciduious and conifers? Thanks for the video!

    I've been taking cuttings from everything I can find during my travels, and my neighborhood walks this past year. Lol
    I just want to see what I can propagate without waiting on seeds... Cause I suck at growing from seed.
    Also, Bcause I don't know how to identify large trees when I'm out and about, which makes it difficult to order from a nursery.

    In an earlier video you showed mixing moss with the soil to improve rootgrowth. 75% of my Ficus cuttings survived and rooted perfectly. I was amazed by the amount of roots on some cuttings. I started with 2 ficusses now having 12. Although propagating ficus went very well, propagating juniper got me zero result. This year I'll try again, maybe I need more moss in the soil for juniper.

    I have been trying to save the apple trees planted from the bear dung often close or a few km from farm areas of bears feeding off apple orchards or harloom trees planted by the early pioneer farms, that have been often cross pollinated, or might exist a hard to find harloom variety, there probably all variants, but I add as record the previous farm family last name to the word bear, thus won-bear, or Oko-bear. at times I can rescue apple trees planted from seed and they grow very slow, But I have a hard time producing apple trees from cuttings, and even the early root stocks I want to graft them on to. I am guessing my problem is maintaining moisture and temperature, and keeping the cutting shaded. perhaps not using loose enough compost soils that will hold water and temperature. maybe issues with fungi or bacteria. My only result was using branches as thick as my finger, thus thicker than a standard pencil, that seemed to have thicker vigerious bark. and pre opening the soil with a wider opening, so that the rooting hormone does not scrape off inserting in the soil. and I watered with willow bark water. but I guess when we have a hobby we need a serious space like a table made for the project, that is near our everyday path so we can monitor every day?

(Can’t remember which one and could be related to the growers climate ) if you enjoy this cultivar, check out Hubbles Super Cork, a more resilient Japanese maple cork bark, grown from a Ara kawa seed, by the owner of Metro Maples in Mansfield, Texas USA.
