Ryan Neil Lecture on Pines Part 1

[@pufferdady]

I am thirsty for more tree knowledge!!! This lecture made my brain happy.. Ryan Neil.. PLEASE do these on.. junipers.. maples.. ect! Awesome amounts of knowledge to be learned from this guy! Thanks!!

[@BrendonVS80]

The best and most concise info on two flush pines anywhere! Thank you Ian and Ryan!

[@tomiduplex]

I'm happy that everyone has been documenting the last year's worth of Ryan's lectures. So much useful and simple information that when presented sound like something you should have already known, almost like common sense. Thanks

[@hubertllanes8995]

What a fantastic lesson on Black Pines! While in-person/hands-on classes have been really helpful, I didn't really understand the science behind these trees until I watched this video. Now I feel a lot better about caring for the black pines I own going into my first full growing season - yeah I'm new at this - picked up the hobby during the pandemic.

[@DanielTorres-up4hv]

Una clase maestra de pinos, una explicación clara y concisa.Desde España Ryan, muchas gracias!!! A master class in bonsai pines, a clear and precise explanation.From Spain, Ryan, thank you very much!!!

[@joshuah604]

great, great video, literally answered every question I had about double flush pines, keep em coming!!!

[@chrishellstern5409]

Amazing video. I learned more from this then I have from every book I read.

[@georgesaul2111]

Thank you for sharing this! It was tremendously clear and clarifies a very complex and confused topic.

[@cherylandrews3195]

I learn so much from this man! Thank you!

[@PatriciaOConnorBonsaiBalcony]

Thank you. I purchased a black pine not long ago and am the 3rd person to care for this tree. The man I picked the tree up from told me that he knew the last owner and tree for some time and it had once been styled by you.

[@RiccardoMerlin]

Now I just need to get a black pine! 😂 Thanks for sharing Ian, I only found this one now. 😅 this material never gets old. 😊

[@dmowlin212]

this guy is really knowledgeable! great lecture, very informative. thanks to Ryan and NIBS.

[@wartbiter]

Thanks for posting this. Really looking forward to the single flush lecture as i grow scots pines.

[@bensush]

WHERE IS THIS LECTURE?!

[@Josef_R]

Great information for mature trees. I wish there was a video like this for immature trees.

[@MsBonsai2010]

Wow! That was a lot of great information! Thanks for sharing!

[@graycam]

Awesome - can't wait for pt 2.

[@BonsaiTalk]

Great Lecture.. something everyone should adapt and learn about Pines. /Bonsai Talk

[@oliverclaffey5186]

Thanks Ryan for a great presentation. Ireland the land of rain and very little bonsai. hoping to change that, well the bonsai bit..Thanks again

[@NimrodTargaryen]

AWESOME! he makes black pines SIMPLE! recommend it to everyone

[@COMBUSTION091]

thank you very much for posting.....

[@lelkish]

Thanks for posting.

[@NoCoastGolf]

This guy is a genius

[@aramanamu]

absolutely brilliant

[@Hugoboss206]

im surprised this isnt copy righted, this is some good stuff!

[@SteveSBSSams]

Another great session Ryan but I have a question. The additional needle pluck when decandling, you said remove 6 to 8 pairs. Is that per branch from all branches, or except the weakest ?

[@hakanozdemir6113]

Hi Ryan. This is the best info I have found on needle and candle pruning. Thank you. I'm looking to buy a 40 year old black pine from Italy. I noticed they have no candles. Should they not have candles now

[@bonsaieejit]

This isn't actually Ryan's video or channel. You need to check out Mirai Live streaming for the best online bonsai resource. You are asking this question in September so any candles your tree had have long since opened and are now just needles with buds formed ready for next years growth. Hope this helps.

[@emacandi]

Thanks for sharing mate!

[@tankoncleaning1902]

Awesome!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@tmpgh1]

Does this fertilization strategy make sense for all trees? Fertilize before bud break, then stop so as to control size and inter-node length until leaves/needles harden off, then feed again to prepare for next flush/spring growth?

[@MyDakota93]

awesome post...thx Bonasi Eejit

[@bonsaieejit]

Why keep this secret, bonsai should be about friendship and learning, not making money. :-)

[@flipmode9236]

very few with all the knowledge and only a handful are willing to share without payment

[@icules324]

scy

[@bonsaieejit]

Feeding is a massive subject and has many variables such as species, stage of development, seasonal changes, repotted recently etc. So the answer would be no. Maples that are well developed for example would not be feed at all in Spring until the leaves have hardened off of any new growth would be unusable!

[@chema5253]

thank you very much

[@nebje]

Podemos conseguir los subtítulos de este video?? Estoy muy interesado

[@BONSAIenCORTO]

Thank you!!!!

[@scentopink]

......... love it!! nobody knows !?

[@apexbonsai1159]

I've seen a lot of comments saying in the UK we have to treat black pines as single flush. Is this true? This talk was in the UK. Does none in the UK follow this advice with success or do we not have a strong enough growing season.

[@paolomh113]

It surprises me nobody pushed that point during the lecture but I guess it depends where in Uk you are... where in UK are you? so far I have heard to treat as single flush in the UK. please comment on your experience and research since.

[@cosmiceon]

when he says cut the candle off does he mean completely or leave 10-12 pairs on the new candle and cut off the rest?

[@goosecouple]

cosmiceon Yes

[@emacandi]

It's not enough to watch it one time.... It seams to be so easy when you watch it but try to repeat it! its a rocket sience....

[@michaelvo3226]

Mariusz Andrzeja

[@Adronius]

What does it means threshold 10-12 pairs? Should I remove 10-12 pairs on branch, or leave 10-12 pairs on branch and remove the rest?

[@bonsaieejit]

Adronius is leaving 10 -12 sets.

[@JohnDoe-qj9wi]

and also mistakenly de-candled a pinus pina in March,, what is best to do now??

[@jameswalker3416]

What happened? Did it die?

[@arno5376]

Can you translate the subtitle in french please🙏🙏🙏

[@JohnDoe-qj9wi]

hello,, what would help to increase the thickness of branches on a pinus pinea??

[@Divertedflight]

+John Doe "Needle mass dictates strength allocation." What style are you aiming for? Pinea is one of those pines that wants to go UP! The branches of this tree in the wild lose strength as soon as they drop to or below the horizontal. A branch drooping drown is a dead one soon to fall off, so if you did want downward branches you"ll need to weaken the top to stop lower downward branches getting weak.

[@Scott-ho1sm]

Maybe try a pinus pump? I'm sure Jane wouldn't mind 😉

[@HansKaramottoBonsai]

Thats hillarious!!! Chears, Hans van Meer.

[@nitemare55]

Hi what type of organic fertilizer do you use on jbp? Thanks in advance!

[@bonsaieejit]

Everyone probably has their own favourite depending where in the world they are. I use Bio-Gold.

[@nitemare55]

Bonsai Eejit thank you!

[@aflatminor]

There's a heck of a lot of background noise, No wonder he's struggling to hear the audiance!! :(

[@mmbronzesculpture2]

Very informative.... thanks. The style of constantly posing questions to the audience is a little tiresome. It's good to engage the audience but too much of that ..as a spectator and a novice it can be intimidating

[@TomTomTomTom538]

I wish there was more about Scots pines and less about black pines in this video

[@MDA-rs4uf]

I hate how this guy tries to put people on the spot. Rather than teach what he know he tries to test the audience with his questions...it's a poor method of teaching in my view, constantly questioning your audience's knowledge....

[@nathanbrowne2800]

IM so confused , I need a drink .

[@jameswalker3416]

Why

[@jasoncoles7584]

Bizarre teaching style. Seems to spend less time imparting what he knows and more on asking the students questions in a confrontational aggressive manner. They’ve come to learn from him, not have their lack of knowledge shown up. If they knew the answers they wouldn’t need to be there.
