well... What Im THINKIN is transplant it, back in the tent for a week or 2 to take to the new pot. ( it REALLY needs to be repotted, I can see new roots trying to fight thru the tangled web. this baby wants to GROW. I understand that they need dormancy every winter, the tent in is a cold...

It has been repotted since that picture you re posted. based off the new pics, or old, I guess the Tree has the same shape still...how would you go about changing the planting angle? just lay the pot down? or use a wedge? thanks!

one more pic, natural lighting, no flash... thanks! let me know what ya think...

Hey everyone! Here is my dwarf mugo...I honestly think this thing, right from the get go, has AMAZING potential and structure. I was afraid since its DWARF and so developed, that it wouldn't grow any further...well I was wrong, I pinched some of the buds and it started taking off in growth...

first off THANKS guys for all the info, Im very torn on what to do....especially after reading THIS newest post... http://adamaskwhy.com/2014/11/11/how-about-a-dramatic-chop-will-that-interest-you/ I cant decide if I want to chop right above the big knot, right where it starts to cluster, and...

Chris, I have noticed that they take GREAT to these real designer lines of nutrients made for indoor or organic growing. much more effective and elaborate than your shultz or peters 10-10-10. those are pure mineral salts. The nutrients I have been using on my trees are FULL of L-amino acids...

Kennedy and Sorce, great info guys. I may just trim one or 2 of the branches that JUT right out of the tree like half a foot for now...Anthony, its hard to get a good view of the trunk unless I trim it up pretty well. Sorce - I like your Idea alot. I may eventually go that route. Got all the...

That's another one of those bad habits I need to shake as an organic indoor/hydroponic grower...I gotta stop thinking of everything as a fast growing crop where you are aiming for yield and quality, plant structure is probably LEAST important as long as you are yielding as much as possible in...

Hey everyone! another great day here in upstate NY, hope everyone's having a fine afternoon! I figured I would make my own thread in the proper section to show our Chinese Elm (U.P.) This thing has been grown indoors with lots of light and great conditions for the last month or so, as some...

awesome advice, thanks guys! ...My Bonsai salesman at the local Bonsai nursery told me for my Junis (that have been kept outdoors and doing fantastic),to take the 3 coldest months of the winter...Im thinking for upstate NY its probably Dec, Jan, Feb....maybe Jan, Feb, March...and he said just...

Lordy also... Thanks for the info you guys! I appreciate that. Its good to know the Elms are so hardy and grow so profusely. I can't wait for my first season planting trees in the ground. I can't WAIT to see what that does for the growth. Nothing like the Sun. I have the Sun god tattoo'd on...

Anyone have any potential styling tips for that big wild sabina juniper in the outdoor pics up there? Are pads possible with that type of growth? Train 2-3 branches close to eachother in the same direction then trim out a pad? Im sorry for such noob questions. Just not much out on the sabina...

Thanks Time...its actually grown alot over the last few days since I pinched a bunch of buds back. So from what I gather, I want to pinch the dominant most and or extra buds or candles? So to determine the direction of the growth? Would it be worth making separate threads in each respective...

I am very new to keeping Bonsai, but the Elms, (Ulmus parvifolia) has REALLY been the most impressive as far as rate of growth...like you said, even beating out the Ficus'

Great work on that Mugo Pine...Would love to find something like that to work on. I have a dwarf mugo, its tiiiny. How are they on growth when provided good light? pretty quick or no?
