Thank you! I wish you strength and patience to get through this! My problem lies more on the very mild winter and that it causes trees to wake up about a month sooner. So now all of my planning went to h@ll.... Cheers!

@@ArkefthosBonsaihave you seen the movie "Apocalypse Now" with Marlon Brando? You are looking like the hero of Brando in the final scene. However, you got the same because of being tired, while the scene in the movie was done by the director`s cut. From this POV, it was fantastic due to its dramatic tension and the disposition.

Nice video but why do the graft, I grow JBP and JRP, trying to understand why put JBP on a different rootstock?
@ArkefthosBonsai3 ай бұрын
Thank you Steve! For various reasons, with the most important being, I don't just graft Japanese white and black pine the species, but rather cultivars of them that have specific characteristics, like smaller and straighter needles, better color etc. Growing endemic pines from seed is much easier, faster and cheaper and sometimes I want to change the foliage type on some pines I'm already working on (like the Pinus nigra I had on first). Lastly, it's easier to thicken a trunk and add a graft low, to create a dramatic taper in just a few years. Cheers!
@steveanacorteswa39793 ай бұрын
@@ArkefthosBonsai Thanks for the answers, I hadn't thought about a sacrifice graft, I have some of my oldest JBP that are on their 4th year, a couple grafts would fatten those trunks for Shohin.
@ArkefthosBonsai3 ай бұрын
No, I don't graft to thicken. I grow tall the rootstock to thicken and the low graft creates a shohin sized tree with foliage very low, with a thickened trunk from the rootstock upright growth. And since pines have rough bark, the graft union can be very inconspicuous (when done right).
