Great video! I enjoyed watching your detailed work, the willow looks really good. The picture quality seems to be better than previous videos, looks awesome!!
Hi Jason, Thanks for watching and your feed back. Its a roller coaster ride for an accountant making YT videos. Am constantly working to improve the videos, but it is a slow process. This is a step in the right direction, but have still a lot to do to achieve my ideal videos.
I hope to make further improvements in the coming months.
Best wishes
Iqbal
If I molested the roots like you are doing my tree would die I don't know how you guys do it and make it look so easy Keep making videos I'll keep watching
Thank you for watching and your feed back. The bare rooting work should be done in Spring and roots kept wet, then you should be good.
I only got interested in bonsai late this year. I have no interest in simply *buying* something which a grower has imported or grown himself. I'm less interested in the finished product than the science of growing something myself. I plan to do exactly this and also air layer some of the things I can find on my own land or in the local area.
~I am so pleased I discovered your videos and will be binge watching them over the weekend.
Hello Phylis, Glad you found my channel, I trust it is helpfull to you in your bonsai journey.
Please subscribe if you haven't yet done so.
Happy viewing and growing.
Wow your trees are beautiful!!!
Thank you so much! 💓💓💓
This is really great work! I enjoyed your videos. I wonder if you're still active and what these willows look like now.
He hasn’t been active in a while which is sad. I miss his new videos
Thank you for watching and commenting.
The Weeping Willows are extremely easy to grow and care for, all they need is watering as described in my willow videos and Pruning. These Willows did very well and the trunks had turned narly dark colour, looking like the trunks of large willow trees. Except for one very young willow all have been sold.
I wouldn't bore you with the details, I was off YT for long time. I have returned and started uploading new videos. Thus far I have uploaded two and a third one is being worked on.
I am back making and uploading videos, please do subscribe to watch my new videos.
@kitakubonsai - I am now back on YT and posted two new videos and working on the third one.
Hope to see your comments on my new videos.
Enjoy your videos. Hope you are okay and all your trees are well. Are you going to be putting some more videos on soon as I have watched nearly all of your videos and am now running out of ones to watch. I have enjoyed all the videos I have watched especially the ones in China and hope you do some more soon.
I hope to restart making bonsai videos in the near future.
@@mikbonsai will look forward to that hope you are ok :-)
Could we get an update as it's been a while. I'm so curious.
I haven't made any videos for a while due to personal circumstances. I hope to restart and will do up dates for all trees.
@@mikbonsai Hope all is well with you! Looking forward to seeing these updates!
Can you make Jens on willows to
You can but as you don't see them in nature, I would not recomend it as it would not look natural.
Do you still have your willow growing?
Yes I do have one of the original cutting and still devcelpoing it.
Will you be doing a update?
About time for Part 7, no?
He is not doing bonsai so intense like earlier.
I agree!! I’d love to see where it’s at now
Willows are a tricky tree to work with. I’ve followed these from cuttings and you’ve done an amazing job with them so far. Thanks, and stay well.
Hi Matt, Thank you for watching and your feed back, both are appreciated very much. The branch die back in winter is high and takes a long time to get a decent bonsai from cuttings.
All the best
Iqbal
Hello my friend :) Great video again and loving the new angle too. I have some willow branches still sat in a bucket of water....rooting brilliantly :) Just figuring out the right mix of soil and grit etc before putting them in a pot. Was great seeing and hearing you again, till next viewing 👀👍🍁💕
Hello Karin, Great to have you here. I planted my cuttings in cat litter. The pruned branches I cut up and stuck them in water and they are rooting like crazy, these I intent to plant them in Grit, I may add bit of pine bark, but not decided yet. These cuttings will grow in pretty much any soil as long as the pot is placed in a bowl or tray of water. Keep us updated with pics on fb in mikbonsai group.
All the best
Iqbal
Amazing to see your videos popping up again, hoping things are slightly easier now for you, Great work on the tree and a much better angle now buddy :)
Thank you Rob, not for an accountant to switch to video making and all that entails, couppled with the fat that its all done by me. Thank you for your feed back, am striving to improve the videos over the coming months, for me it is a slow process unlike my friend Nigel, his day job working with multimedia. Things are slowly improving, my ankle injury is taking a long time to heal. Other wise slowly getting back into bonsai and video making. The video production is not at the level it was a year ago and that too needs to improve.
Trust all well with you and the family.
Best wishes

Hi Iqbal, good tutorial as always. Journey of this tree is actually interesting. Definitely it's going to be a beautiful bonsai..All the best.

Hi Anita, Good to see you here and thank you for watching and your feed back.

Glad u are back. I've been missing watching you work your bonsai. U do great work thank u for making your videos again.
Hey Jay, Thanks for the warm welcome. See the description box below the Yew tree video where I explained what I went through in the past year. Slowly getting back into my bonsai work and videos.
Its very time consuming and at times very disheartening that not enough people share my videos. It would help me enormously if you and other would share the videos as you watch them. ITs not much to ask in return for the time and effort I put in. I do hope you do not mind me asking you.
Best wishes
Iqbal
mikbonsai I watched that video....it's a lot for one person to go through and hope u are doing better. I will help share as much as I can.thanks again for coming back.
Thank you. share in any social media in groups etc.
You too take care until next time.

Thank you Darren, they have started sprouting. Will try and do an update in a few months.
All the best
Iqbal

My friend. Beautiful video very interesting
Thank you.
Iqbal Mark, here my willow tree cutting's have rooted like you said in just water in just one week they are still just water but they taking off with roots just waiting a massive amount to pot them up thanks for the information nice video always looking forward to your videos👍👌
Thank you Mark, these are one of the easiest trees to grow, just like falling off a log. Every one should have a few. Let me know how yours are doing as they progress.
All the best
Iqbal
@@mikbonsai
I will keep you up on the progress thank you again
@@elementalbonsai Great.

Hi, beautiful video. I am doing my first WILLOW. This level of pruning should be done in spring when growth starts yes?
To prune in spring is too early, allow it to grow and then prune in summer.
Cheers
Iqbal
Oh man I need one of those sickles now!
Hi Andy, Its only a few pounds from traders at bonsai shows. Thery are competing to sell at bonsai shows and prices tend to be lower.
I hope you get yours soon.
Best wishes

u r most welcome sir.😊
The tesco light weight cat litter non clumping is back, it's moluar clay 🙀😉 it's 1.55 for 10 litres
Used to be £4.20 for 10 litres. Will check it out when I am next in Tesco. Thank you for the heads up.

Appreciate you being here.

Thanks
Why you didn't work at the top part at first? It make the work easier, I always do this way
I like to work from bottom up. I decide on the length of the first branch and work up reducing the upper branches and keeping in proportion to the lower ones. As I work my way up, the upper branches are kept slightly smaller than the lower ones. There is not right or wrong way. You could start from the top and work down. I work from bottom to top as that is what I was taught in my bonsai lessons and am used to it. I hope that makes sense.
All the best
Iqbal
@@mikbonsai but wait, I was misunterstood by you. I meant to work at first to the branches, and then to the roots - by top part I meant the aerial part, and the bottom part - the roots ☺
Who would have thought you could use cat litter!
This is a particular type of Cat Litter. Its made from clay, heated to very high temperatures and it turns into little particles. Its very hard, just like the Japanese Akadama which is harvested and crushed volcanic rock. When the clay is hear to very high temperatures it developes qualities of volcanic rock.

is there something to do with canker on willows or it's just a slow death???
This is my first attempt to bonsai willow trees from branch cuttings, These trees have been on the go for a number of years now. I have checked canker images and so far could not see any similarities. However, you could be right only time will tell. I will start keeping a close eye on these trees and also
enhance care and maintenance. Looks like you may have spotted something I haven't, time will tell.
I will do future updates. Thank you for alerting me of the problem.
Cheers
Iqbal
@@mikbonsai I've red it propagate by spores and so far I've never seen any weeping willows without canker. For older trees they seem to survive with it, but I'm loosing some of my cuttings right now. I'll try taking very young shoots and isolate them to see what happens...
Thank you for sharing that information. I have more cutting taken from pruned branches and they have rooted like crazy. I too will keep an eye on mine. I find there is a lot of die back of branches over winter. Have you experienced this ?
@@mikbonsai the wind makes a lot of damage, but when humidity comes along with cool or cold weather that is really bad...
Mikbonsai, I don't know what cat litter you use but Sophisticat pink litter is on sale at pets at home for £12.49 (30 litre) this appears to be recommended by the Alpine growers, hope helps you?
That's what I myself and quite a few others I know are now using.
I have to get my self to Pets at Home and pick up a bag. Price wise it is same as the Tesco one I was using. Thank you Brian Kavanagh and Mikey Dunn.
Thanks for the heads up.
Cheers
Iqbal
I used to get mine at wilko, but looking at their website it’s not on there any more as well!! Pets at home it is! Cheers guys
Sanicat does have a larger particle size. I prefer it except for cuttings and shohin/mame
Brian Kavanagh Thank you. Got a bag earlier today. The granules are bigger and better than the Tesco brand. Used to repot three trees today.
Do weeping willows as a bonsai require a lot of water like in their natural habitat?
Hi Wendy, Yes they do and it is best to keep the pot in a bowl or tray of water for best results.
Cheers
Iqbal
@@mikbonsai Thanks for answering my question! 😁
Wendy Henschel You are welcome.
Where are you from?
My mother side of the family was from India and my fathers side was from Pakistan but they had migrated to Uganda in East Africa, I was raised there and came to UK for further education and stayed.
I hope that is helpful.
