Very nice and informative video. Thank you

[@GrowingBonsai]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Bonsaiandknives]

Learning from you with each of your great videos!

[@GrowingBonsai]

Happy to hear that!

[@jamesbutcher7171]

Thanks Jelle; interesting and informative as always

[@GrowingBonsai]

My pleasure!

[@MisterReginator]

Another very enjoyable video, Jelle! Your tips are very easy to understand and remember. Also I enjoy another Dutch person speaking English, always funny how we pronounce a lot of English words, it makes us very recognizable haha

[@GrowingBonsai]

Thank you! 😃

[@jeroendejonghe6036]

Bedankt voor de duidelijke uitleg.

[@GrowingBonsai]

you re welcome!

[@AlexBraunton]

Great tips Jelle. We've recently had some coldish weather, -4c but now we've spiked to 16c with heavy winds and rain. Thanks for the video

[@GrowingBonsai]

Rollercoaster weather, here too. But more substantial frost is forecast for the next weeks so today I put all trees to the ground, so I do nto have to lug them in the dark.

[@sueb1317]

Thank you so much Jelle! I never knew how important fall work was until I started bonsai. I do need to improve spray application - spring insects woke up very hungry this year. I've tried your recipe and am really happy with it.

[@GrowingBonsai]

Great to hear! I do wish we get a decent winter reducing the spring loading a bit too.

[@Hollylivengood]

Thank you for the recipe. You make it look easy, wiring the little branches. Those are the ones I have a hard time with.

[@GrowingBonsai]

You can do it! Just wire wire wire.

[@harrietb2141]

Thank you for your good advice .

[@GrowingBonsai]

You are welcome! Thank you for continued visits!

[@mcbabs7495]

Un grand merci pour la vidéo!

[@GrowingBonsai]

Un grand merci pour su visit!

[@FrostBiteBonsai]

Great information Jelle! I think I will try your recipe! I will look after as I lost heat in the trailer and everything froze last night. Now I must do crazy transfer to the house and get the outdoor trees into the trailer. They have a few inches of snow now. I will send some snow your way ok! 😂🤭

[@GrowingBonsai]

hahaha, well, thank you. How cold does it get for you?

[@FrostBiteBonsai]

@GrowingBonsai We, in a normal winter, will go into the -30s Celsius. Often have a two or so week span -40 and colder Celsius. The zone label here is 3a/3b. Last winter the coldest day was -27C unusual to be that warm in winter.

[@XaviersBonsaiRetreat]

Nice selection of trees for this video Jelle :)

[@GrowingBonsai]

Thank you very much! Just another day in the bonsai garden :)

[@paperhane]

As always, awesome content, Jelle! Can the same solutions be used on coniferous trees?

[@GrowingBonsai]

Dont remove all the foliage! Pruning and wiring and cleanup, yes. Although.. Keep them on the dry side afterwards as less foliage is less evaporation is wetter roots

[@jaiprakashpathak8974]

Really informative 👏

[@GrowingBonsai]

Thanks so much!

[@vonhausen1]

great video! Where do you store cuttings and young seedlings during winter? just outside with the other trees?

[@GrowingBonsai]

I do!

[@vonhausen1]

@@GrowingBonsai alright, thx for your reply 👍

[@marklayzell8132]

Hi I am in the uk . Is it ok if I share your video to our clubs Facebook group? Keep up the great work your videos are amazing, very informative

[@GrowingBonsai]

absolutely! Thank you for sharing = caring.

[@jerezindraj6723]

Hello Jelle. For how long do you leave a repotted bonsai in a Shaded Area or in a Semi Shaded Area & then place it in an area where it gets full sunlight? Thank you.

[@GrowingBonsai]

normally they go back to where they were, unless I do. summer repot, then i might gove them 2-4 weeks protection

[@jerezindraj6723]

@GrowingBonsai Thank you 🌳🌲🍁🇯🇵👌🏻

[@donaldslovey338]

Whats it mean when you take all the leaves off the tree and it grows new leaves on it ?

[@Bonsaiandknives]

What is your experience with this spray bottle? I bought the same one today

[@GrowingBonsai]

I have a whole bunch of them. After 2-3 years the nozzle gets mucky here and after 4-5 years seals give.

[@Bonsaiandknives]

@ I have the same experience

[@aurelian6313]

The potted plant in the background at the start of your video looks like a variegated Clivia miniata. I too have one.

[@GrowingBonsai]

It is not though :) it is a pot full of Amaryllus Bulbs I grew from seed. I am hoping for flowers this year.

[@SultonBonsai]

Hadir om...

[@GrowingBonsai]

I am not sure what that means!

[@cukuberes]

Can i bring my newly purchased elm in greenhouse that iy goes in winter dormancy? Its about +10C ??

[@GrowingBonsai]

I would say 10C is possibly on the warm side but yeah, that would work

[@bloemkoolsoep]

Do you find this spray more effective than Jin liquid? Most professionals use Jin liquid. Why do you prefer this one?

[@GrowingBonsai]

to me it has a different purpose.

[@ruigrilo5786]

What is the oil brand?

[@GrowingBonsai]

No Clue. It does not have any labels

[@sakekampstra8727]

Hallo Jelle welke algenreiniger gebruik ji???

[@GrowingBonsai]

I just use a commercial product from.the hardware store

[@sakekampstra8727]

@GrowingBonsai thanks Jelle!

Thaaanks! :)

[@BenshobbyStuff]

hi mate long time subscriber here i can confirm i get notifications when you post videos .... i have a really big acer i need help with and would like you to have a look at it for me. i have got lots of pics. it was dug up in an emergency end of may and has flourished the nebari is 13 inches across. let me know if youre up for it please :)

[@GrowingBonsai]

No promises. But check kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIKwf4KMl651qqMsi=v8bOGG-uYtaODA3F

[@keris617]

why do you take the leaves off? whats the difference if the tree just lose it itself

[@GrowingBonsai]

It is easier to spray the tree without leaves.

[@stuartbaines2843]

Any tips for Heavy Rainfall 💦💦🙈💦💦

[@GrowingBonsai]

wear a raincoat!

[@BenshobbyStuff]

all these famous youtubers and not 1 has answered me :/ completely losing respect for said youtubers now :/

[@GrowingBonsai]

I had to check, but it seems you are complaining that I did not reply to your message within 24 hours? You do realize this is not my job? I share what I know for free and in my own time, without a charge for you. And you then complain that I have not responded to your message? Guess what, I have a backlog of several hundred messages, as it can take over an hour per day to respond to each of them. I do not have an hour a day to spare. And in the weekend, guess what.. I work on my trees. With 32 comments on this video alone in 24hrs... maybe you could have imagined I do not answer within minutes. I do have a life besides youtube.

[@BenshobbyStuff]

@@GrowingBonsai no not at all mate im not having a go at you for not replying in 24h but im clasping straws nobody is willing to even have a look my friend.. just a bit desperate as all else fails. just feel brushed to a side if you know what i mean. youre the first to even reply

[@GrowingBonsai]

Just realize that if you have someone who runs a youtube channel such questions come in all the time. I daily get emails with such questions. As I do not run a company I have no way to monetize such requests and in the end, the more I do for others, the less I can do for my own trees. And with a few hundred trees.. Do you not have a club in the region or a bonsai nursery where you could get some help? I am pretty swamped for the next 3 or so weeks tbh.

[@BenshobbyStuff]

@@GrowingBonsai lol mate im not asking for monetising the tree. :) i think the acer is 1 of a kind.. look if you dont want to see pics of it fair enough.. ill have to find someone that can lend me a bit of imagination as its a big project that could use some different opinions. especially with a 13inch nebari :)

[@brucejeffcott1104]

​@@BenshobbyStuff I'm willing to help. I've been doing bonsia for about 10 years..
