    Automated Irrigation Systems

    Watering systems for bonsai are tough but doable...I've had lots of success, but it's taken many many many hours of trial and error. I'll try to post some pics of what's worked best for me. Misters are great if they are fairly close to the tree...and you'll need at least 2 per pot. Drippers...
