  • It's easy to grow a bonsai tree larger, keeping it small, is a challenge!
    I prune a Ficus religiosa, a Ficus microcarpa and a Jade tree back to size.

Another great channel i found was an Indian channel in Hindi language but with english subtitles called Bonsai tricks and a lot more.

    When cutting all the leaves off, how does the tree survive without photosynthesis? Should this only be done in certain seasons?

    • @TheBonsaiZone
      @TheBonsaiZone  6 лет назад +58

      The tree relies on energy stored in the roots, trunk and branches to grow new foliage on the tree. It is similar to generating the new leaves on deciduous trees in spring. This does drain the tree of energy, so it should only be done on a really healthy vigorous tree. The new leaves should be allowed to grow and replace the lost energy stores in the tree.

      This would be an excellent video. We've seen the tree benches covered in a think layer of snow but never had a discussion or explanation of how he winterizes. Although, as much snow as they get up there you have to remember that type of snow basically acts like an insulator. The trees under that pile of snow are kept close to 32F because the really cold air can't get to them.

      CyniuxD if it is a tropical you need to do it before summer or after summer (I think but I'm sure you can do it any time of the year depending on the tree and just baby it). if it is a tree that goes dormant then you can cut most of the roots off and most of the top off as well before spring. I found a maple and I cut it to have 2 small roots and 3 inches of trunk and when it grew it was fine. im not sure about ever greens.

      @@PaperBarrack They look like pebbles, which they are. But they are NOT pebbles of rock, which are non-absorbent. They are pebbles of "Akadama" and "Turface", which are both types clay. Clay pebbles are absorbant, but also hold their shape, to allow for drainage of water, and circulation of air. What you don't see in those pebbles are included coarse sand, and Frit, to aid in drainage and minerals. This mix is typical for DECIDUOUS TREES, as opposed to conifers, which prefer a more organic, mulchy type of soil.
      You and others may wonder where the brown stuff is. Thats dirt. Different thing. Doesn't work on this small scale because it doesn't drain quickly, it turns to mud.
      These trees he's working on, you can do a 50/50 deciduous(pebble)/conifer(mulch) mix. It would be a littler more "dirtier".

      The soil is 1/2 perlite and 1/2 turface. It is really good for root growth and keeping the trees healthy. You do need to add fertilizer to your water, like hydroponics.

      So even right after repotting you use fertilised water? Wouldn't that burn freshly cut roots? I understand that your mix is poor in nutrients but great for root growth.

    • @TheBonsaiZone
      @TheBonsaiZone  7 лет назад +2

      Thanks Enezeuvie, I find them very exciting also! Large trees are awesome too, but sometimes the well done small ones amaze me more. I remember a show I went to once, and the best tree in the show was a small tree about 6 inches tall. It looked larger than any other tree in the show in including some that were almost a meter tall. This experience taught me, it's not about size of the bonsai, but the quality and attention to detail.

I do have a question. I recently bought my second bonsai but am having problems identifying it. Do you have a video on that?
