Thank you for sharing. Good blue pot. I enjoy your persimmon Bonsai. Thank you very much. By the way, I think you have many many Bonsai trees. I think you enjoy Bonsai.
Hello my good bonsai friend, thanks you for watching and commenting,, you are right I have many bonsai trees, I love and enjoy bonsai.
I like the way that you can make trees with thin trunk to look very beautiful and artistic...most people think that only trees with thick trunk worth to be bonsai...so you changed that well done.Thank you very much Mr.
Hi George, Thank you for your feed back and you observation. There are many things I am doing differently from the convention and rules made over 2000 years ago. My bare rooting and aggressive root pruning is another example of the experts tell us not to do that and that we should make a root ball while root pruning and the root ball must have un disturbed old soil. You never scan see what's in side the root ball. My method of bear rooting the tree and being able to see what's going on and removing thik unwanted roots at an early stages speeds up the development of a good root system. Care must be taken to ensure that the bare roots are always moist, which I do. I f the feeder roots dry out then the tree will die.
For the last three years I have been using pure Cat Litter without adding any organic material. I have started showing this in this and a few recent videos and people are very surprised. It works better than the Japanese Akadama.
Thanks for your support and subscription and keep watching and commenting,, even if its a smily face, i will know you were here.
Have a good week end.

Hi Iqbal, thanks for this beautiful video. Love the plant and pot very much. I learn a lot from you. This time I learnt not only about bonsai making also about horses!!!
Warm regards.
Hi Anita, Thanks for watching and your comment about the horses brought a smile to my face.

Iqbal - I assume that since you use pure cat litter instead of soil, you must feed the plant with every watering. Is this the case? If it is, what fertilizer do you use, and in what concentration?
Thanks for you videos. I have learned quite a bit from them. I don't do everything the way you do, but I appreciate the sharing of techniques and knowledge.
I use pallets and they are placed round the pot and on every watering some of it dissolves and gets into the soil, thus feeding the tree. I also use liquid sea weed and tomato feed for flowering and fruiting trees. I use this once a week diluted in water. To vary the feed I also use Chempak 10:10:10, if you cannot get this, then get the next higher strength e.g. 30:30:30 and dilute it to 10:10:10.
Yohann, I too don't follow any one in particular, not even the teachers from whom I had lesson's, other wise it would be creating bonsai by numbers and all our trees would exactly the same ! and we would all be cookie cutters. I am glad to hear you are developing your own style and your trees will also be unique as a result. I am also experimenting, I have used Cat Litter successfully for three years and now started showing it after I had evidence that it works. Keep watching theres more to come.
Have a good weekend

Have a good weekend.

hi.... nice video.. :-)
Thank you Helen.
Your welcome... I've done a video.. Please check if you have time and bless me... :-)
Did you use cat litter and potting soil as a growing medium?! Wow I've never heard of that
Its pure cat litter, which is granules heated to very high temperatures, retains little moisture. No potting soil added, its pure cat litter. I have been using it on my trees for the last three years and they are doing great. I am breaking out of the mold of doing things they way they did in China and Japan over 2000 years ago. My root work is also very aggressive and speeds up the development of the roots. I have been very badly attacked on fb by English bonsai artists and their followers for my root work.
As the Cat litter works, I have gone on record and telling every one about this product. I am in communications with the product owner to sponsor a video so that I can actually show the product and talk about its qualities and manufacture process. I am waiting to hear from their marketing department.
In my experience this is an excellent product and less than quarter of the price of Akadama.
I have a few more surprises to unveil in the next couple of months, which the so called experts won't share with every one, but I will and all will benefit as a result.
Best wishes and have a good weekend

mikbonsai thank you for all the good work. I'm very new to bonsai and have acquired 10 trees in the past year. Your info and videos have been very inspiring and I can not say how greatful people like me are for the sharing of I formation like this. Pure cat litter low dust, I will definitely try this on my next tree. Thank you mik and please keep sharing this info
+mikbonsai I am going to look forward to these new developments, intriguing; I'm getting ready to do my first bonsai, probably will be a gardenia from a nursery or a known small leaf tree. I am still 👀🌻🌱🌻🌻browsing for it. 🎨 😎
Why do you put "NEW" in all your titles? They're only new until the next video comes out. No one searches on the keyword "new". Your videos are evergreen - people will still be watching them years from now. Your most valuable real estate in the first 5-7 words of your title. Just some thoughts I've had, seeing your titles. Love your channel!!!
Hi, No I don't put new in all my titles, its limited to five videos which appear on my home page under Uploads. When a new upload was made, I would remove the **New** from the video which would become no, 6 and not be seen on the home page. Following your comment, suggestion and the loss of key words in the title, I have now reduced it to just the latest video. So only the latest video will have **New** and as I up load minimum one video a week, some times two and even three, the **New** will only be on one video and will be there for a very short time.
I too have looked at your channel and love the channel banner. Mine sucks ! will get it sorted. Thanks you for taking the time to look at my channel and your feed back and also watching my videos.
Sorry what is the gravel you use?
Its premier grade low dust cat litter, made from granules heated to very high temperatures. Its qualities are similar to the Japanese Akadama. If you email me I will send you the link
and the brand. my email is: info@mikbonsai.co.uk
how old is this tree? is it fine to bonsai the tree when it is about a year old or better to leave it for 2 years then bonsai it?
These trees were propagated from cuttings in a Nursery in the North of England. I acquired them approximately three years ago and from memory they were about five/six years old. So that makes them about 8/9 years old. One year old is too young. Plant it out in the ground to speed thickening of the trunk. When planting use a square ceramic tile to place in the hole in the ground, then cut the tap root of your year old sapling and plant on top of the tile. Fill up the hole with your garden soil. The roots will not be able to grow down wards due to the tile and with then grow radially like the spokes of a cycle wheel, which is very good for bonsai. Also when you want to lift the tree from the ground and plant it in a pot, it becomes very easy to do as there are no tap roots to worry about.
Have a good weekend

Thanks a lot sir for your reply, i guess i shall plant all my nursery plant in the ground for another year as you advised. my plants are 1 year old and they are already as thick as your tree. i guess it is because we 360- 16 hours of sunny warm days a year. thank you so much once again.
There is so many different approaches to bonsai and your question. It ultimately depends on what you want the tree to look like. If you want a very thick trunk and then it will take many years. If you are happy to have a thin trunk, then you can bonsai it by lifting it from the ground in a year's time. when you do this, you can get away with it if you chose the Mame style and reduce the trunk height by doing a trunk chop and keep the tree small. I have done tis on many occasions and heres the latest example, just in case you have't seen it. ruclips.net/video/rs6LvMBmnNs/видео.html
