Bonsai -- Show and Tell

[Bonsai -- Show and Tell]

No worries flora.

I got 3 bags of kleensorb online a couple of years ago because i was having trouble finding it instore also. I figured its light and reusable so it was worth it in the long run and i have noticed the difference in my trees.

Enjoy the show. I wish i could of make it

[What did you do to your cacti today?]

The purple with the gold hardware does look drool worthy.

I have a les paul copy. I will one day own a gibson

I thought i would share a couple of bonsai tips.

The kleensorb/diatomite and zeo-clor/ziolite make a perfect inorganic soil mix for your bonsai. It dries out quicker than organic soil though. So if you cant water every 1-2days some organic soil in the mix will extend the watering period.

The colanders come in different sizes and start from $1 at asian markets. They are great air pruning training pots. They help develop feeder roots closer to the trunk before you put your tree in a shallow bonsai pot.

And the bamboo skewer is for repotting. Use it to push the soil under and around the rootball.

The seedling in the training pot is a japanese black pine

Hope some of these tips help

[E-cig concentrates 2 trade]

I have some flavor concentrates for ecigs that im no longer using. If any of you plant loving vapers want to trade for a cactus or plant im all ears. Just send me a pm

These do not contain liquid nicotine or pg/vg. You can get those elsewhere by having a squizze on the google.

Only a couple of drops are needed in a pg/vg nic mix.

The only method i have been able to quit smoking. If you cant read the bottles i will pm them

Dunno bout that DS. Might be infused with blood nuts.

I expect nothing less. Beside bigread sounds like he has his anger in check

[Hi (New Member Intro)]

I thought i would show a few of my trees that will be getting the chop this year or next. I have been a bit slow to get to the maples before bud break.

Not all trees can take such big chops and have to be done gradually over a few years.

A trident maple that shows its full hight and where it will be chopped.

A few japanese maples. One has been chopped but i didnt have the right tool to take it right back to where i want

This maple needs alot of work done to the roots.

It was about 2mtr tall when i brought it. I chopped a meter off before i even put it in the car at the nursery

A Port jackson fig.

I will keep the top and propogate it

Chinese elm that has already been chopped a couple of times.

And last but not least. New candles on my japanese black pine. :-)

Thank you so much bigred and enjoy your holiday

Having been born in qld, i have a soft spot for bundy rum/angry juice.

Im sure bigred rum will taste so much better, without the angry additives

Thanks for sharing myco

I love the ficus roots over rock on the right side of the top bench.

Did you thread the conifer threw the deadwood yourself? I like that one also. Come to think of it you have a good mix of trees to your collection :-)

On another note, anyone given them custom made burgers a crack at maccas? I saw one served on a wooden chopping board when I was grabbing coffee and it looked delish.

Brioche, angus patty, bacon, swish cheese, caramelized onions, chilli jam, tomato lettuce and aoli. Stat

[TIL...Madeira vine is edible?!]

I was going to say you could use some japanese recipes to make it taste good. Then i open your link and saw the Japanese already use it. Crafty buggers.

Maybe slice the tubers paper thin with a mandolin slicer and tempura them and eat with beer.

Steam the leaves with ginger, soy and garlic, then top with fried shallots.

Greeting and happy gardening :-)

[Happy Birthday Watertrade !!!!!!!!!!!]

Now why did you go and say that atOm.

Hey waterboy, whats in the cage?

[Bonsai -- Show and Tell]

I have plans for this to be a River she oak forrest in the future.

I have put some movment low in some of the trunks and left some to grow straight.

I will repot them individually this year and give them an extreme chop back. I will then leave them for a year or two and then chop again, then find a big bonsai pot to start the forest scene

Enjoy and make sur they cook those chips fresh. I always ask for extra salt. Cos chicken salt is the shit!
