I just lost another tree, I think I am watering them too much.
I'm using Monto Clay and lava rock with a little Perlite. I also might add just a little potting soil, but not very much.I’m a beginner myself, so if anyone with more experience than me says anything different by all means listen to them. But from my own ventures, after I get any tree I almost immediately slip or re-pot them into inorganic bonsai soil (unless they were shipped to me; then I give them a few days to recover first). I use boon mix for most everything. I’ve learned that each day and plant are different so I don’t have a schedule. But with good draining soil, I think it would be really really hard to over water.
And how often are you watering? And what sort of trees?I'm using Monto Clay and lava rock with a little Perlite. I also might add just a little potting soil, but not very much.
Again, don't be so cryptic or did I miss it? What kind of tree? Monto clay is acid, is it appropriate? Potting soil in a bonsai mix is not appropriate for most bonsai .... if any.I'm using Monto Clay and lava rock with a little Perlite. I also might add just a little potting soil, but not very much.
This is what I was thinking. Which tree, which substrate, where did the plant sit. Any pictures?Again, don't be so cryptic or did I miss it? What kind of tree? Monto clay is acid, is it appropriate? Potting soil in a bonsai mix is not appropriate for most bonsai .... if any.
