Hello all, I’m new to the forums and new to Bonsai. I live in Maine, zone 5b. I’m currently working on growing some trees from seed, in the meantime I have bought some nursery stock, a forsythia, boxwood, azalea, cryptomeria and Japanese pieris.
I’m a bit confused on where I should start. Worth it being the second week of April, should I work on the roots and repot first, shape and wire first or do both at the same time? I know it depends on the species which is why I listed what I’m working with. I’ve read several conflicting answers and am hoping I can get some clarity here.
I appreciate any help and/or guidance anyone can provide. Thank you!
