I just have one question, is it ok to repot a indoor bonsai anytime? You would think because it's kept inside where the climate never really changes it would be ok, right?
@bonsaiempire
@bonsaiempire Жыл бұрын
You can indeed repot year round - though light intensity will (in most places) differ through the seasons. I personally stick to repotting in spring because I do see my indoors grow faster then.

Why do you wire two branches at the same time? :) So the branch looks thicker/for ethetic reasons?
@bonsaiempire
@bonsaiempire 3 ай бұрын
Why we wire, or why we wire two branches with one wire? The latter: it stabilizes the wire if you connect two branches with it (so it doesn't wiggle) and it looks better (you'll need less wire on your tree).

Thats a microcarpa and not a retusa. Leaves are very different. Mislabeling for years. Even big nurseries get it wrong.

You need to use good bonsai substrate (read our website, or check our video here on youtube) - with good substrate there is no issue at all.

It looks like tree from shop. Ahhh what a pithy pot is not so good and give that cheap look to the tree. And if you take that akadama off and put some bark tree could be much happier and soil could stand in good shape for longer.
