That's because it doesn't know that you want to chop his head off...

A CROP OF ZELKOVA

I think a large crop of these will be fun.Start in August all the way through to Spring 2024.Could make some traditional long trunk Broom also…..Ideally trunks over 7” long…..the ones in the pictures were way to short…..

All air-layered.

Also a flat of korean Hornbeam kabudachi and Magnolia Stellata Kabudachi……since seeds are germinating.

Had a couple bum crops in a row some career change I do apologize sometimes these things either the seeds bad or I just killed them by accident, but I got a boatload of them outside now small amount of zelkova and mostly Pines cause they actually survive my assault of mistakes.

Nice start! Your English is better than my Russian, so that helps! What area are you in?

I live in Moskow. Hope there are a lot of carbon in the air)

I love this thread, I’ve learned so much from your threads. Thanks. Did you have much luck with the Co2 bags raising levels? Did lining a traditional bonsai pot with grow bag material work well for root pruning/root control?

It took me some time but I read the whole thread. Amazing work and amazing growth in knowledge and skills.

I like the idea that most "new type" bonsai soils are in theory hydroponics, of you think about pumice, perlite, lava etc. All inert materials are essentially hydroponics. That made me think of an old book I bought a while back.

It's in Dutch.

I dont have the space for an operation like yours, but am looking to implement Rockwool, kelp, fulvic acid into a growing regiment. Our tap water is unchlorinated and without fluor so that's a good setup. Trying to source a dependable and affordable ph and ec meter. Really like the eb and flow system.
