This is one of the best bonsai vids I have ever watched.

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Another excellent video! Thanks.

[@ericsvideos1]

I have never learned sooooo much off of one video! Wow! This dude’s Parents are Trees and his siblings are Bonsais! His friends are weeds. He knows sooooo much!

[@giovannibarranca2595]

Such a great teacher. Ryan has increased my knowledge in Bonsai immensely 🙂

[@MF-fc5vk]

Thanks for passing on your knowledge . Love it.

[@ericdevere888]

At the hour mark, Ryan starts talking about root systems and nutrition - - I watched it like 10 times. Thank you for breaking things down to the core concepts. You've helped me immensely.

[@IronSnail]

Thank you for making these vids! Where I live nobody does bonsai and vids like this is the only way I can learn.

[@pip110.5]

Blimey. You take away all of the myths on Bonsai. Come spring I will be putting your wonderful tutorials to good use. Thank you, and kind regards from London.

[@EduardoSantos-qj2ni]

Ryan is fantastic! 👍

[@MrLang-qb7nd]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@1957bots8]

Love the coast live oak. We are surrounded by them, here on the central coast of California.

[@edge540ep]

awesome video guys

[@TeeGeeOh]

I would love to learn more about Junipers, how they grow, how to prune, what to expect, what their characters and needs are. Please consider, you are the best (and most knowledgeable) I've come across on my Bonsai journey. Much appreciated

[@sethmoore8812]

Awsome video!

[@michaelwhyte8529]

very informative.

[@hashiramabonsai]

stupid question but from an evolutional pov why do most species grow more than 3 shoots at a junction, obviously nature is prepared to lose some branches but doesnt the inverse taper cause more problems?

[@barryjohn4439]

Love you brain Ryan 👊🏻

[@emilybelt]

Bonsaiable! 👍

[@MrYoumitube]

Okay so I'm pretty confident with Multi flush pines now. Thanks Ryan. I'm still confused with single flush pine. Do we pluck needles, prune candles?

[@messdezyne366]

You are a gold and respektive Bonsai knowhow teacher

[@michaelpoleviak2939]

Can I pinch the new flush of Ligustrum if I have fertilised well in the Fall?

[@andrewvogel9261]

Thanks Ryan! For us on the California coast marine layer is solid during early summer. Does that mean begin slowing down fertilizer more like July? May/Gray & June/Gloom! Ha

[@danielulaan]

A couple of errors in describing photosynthesis and cellular metabolism. C6H12O6, the carbohydrate product of photosynthesis, is glucose. It is not broken down into sugars that can be used for energy. It IS the sugar plants use for energy (in cellular respiration). Also the oxygen that plants release during photosynthesis doesn't come from carbon dioxide: it comes from water. This takes place during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis.

[@antonioarancibia1877]

:v

[@peterboneg]

Yes, although the oxygen thing was only discovered recently so we can forgive him that.

[@danielulaan]

It was discovered in 1937 by Robin Hill at Cambridge.

[@peterboneg]

Thanks for the correction. For some reason I thought I saw a paper recently about this.

[@Andrew-hl3tk]

The glucose is used to create atp via cellular respiration and that is technically the plants base energy so he isn't wrong

[@RaccoonEatingCacti]

Very new to the concept of bonsai. Would you be able to graft a bud below an area of inverse taper on a spruce to help thickening of the trunk?

[@RaccoonEatingCacti]

Bonsai Mirai , Thank you for the reply! I hope to get to the level where i can experiment with this.

[@vicenczurriaga4217]

which soil does he use? and you?

[@Refleksidiri456]

amazing

[@dwibonsai8318]

Nice one

[@X.tlal.]

This kid is dreamy

[@moinudingallotta9737]

What's the type of the second tree he uses? Complete newb to bonsai interested in learning more.

[@TheMightyYak]

Upload date is May 26 (2017). Was this actually recorded in May? seems like pinching out 3 times before summer is a lot?

[@ahappyimago]

What season is this spring or summer? He should be more specific about flush timings

[@TheWizardofMNT]

If you have a tree in development where you essentially just want it to grow and get bigger, would that partial leaf defoliation still be something you'd want to do or would you just let the tree grow and do it's thing?

[@piercegauge5800]

No. Let it grow. Bigger pot or in the ground

[@juliuskvensler5689]

Pretty sure mycorrhiza is the symbiotic relationship between mushrooms and a tree's rootsystem. Are you supposed to have some kind of mushroom in your bonsai container?

[@ahappyimago]

It doesn’t look like a mushroom. It’s just some white stuff on the root system. It happens naturally but sometimes you can add it from an established soil.

[@goosecouple]

bonsai-able

[@naturecreationathome3478]

Sir, Please dubbed also in many kind of language for understanding. Like a Discovery channel.

[@davidmagnier27]

bonjour dommage que la traduction n'est pas en Français

[@glzboy1]

I fell asleep at 13.13 and "Trio of three" Now i know where I was going wrong. I was always looking for a Trio of four !!! Yawn

[@maverickstclare3756]

Ryan loves to utilize supplemental vocabulatory situations when they occur

[@domeniccosta5579]

“Bonsai is Bonsai is Bonsai .........” =)

[@FloridaWildlife]

His way of teaching is like he is king and we will never be as good…Kids these day

[@ahappyimago]

He’s kind of arrogant but he earned it through 6 years of apprenticeship in Japan and coming back and giving the most detailed explanations of bonsai concepts to a English speaking audience.

[@adrianvaughan8489]

Yes, he's experienced, educated, and confident. The best I've found online by far. Not to mention, he's willing to share all of that with the world.

[@FloridaWildlife]

Next week….2 hours about oatmeal

[@FloridaWildlife]

33 years doing this…I cringe at all his false info. He will learn that one day. Where you live is what matters most.

[@Furdizzle]

Curious what info you’re referring to and what locations it does or does not apply to…
