A year ago may I thought young=small enough....since I have had many epiphanies about bonsai. Vance....back then I ment small enough...Thanks for pointing this out. I'm sure there are people out there with the same misunderstanding about bonsai that I had last year ;)

Ummm it's pretty messed up they're making you take the TOEFL and the GRE.....If you score decient on the GRE's verbal you'd blow the TOEFL out of the water....Seems like the TOEFL would be a gross waste of money...BOOOOO Bureaucracy!!! Good Luck on your tests!

Thanks for sharing! Impressive

save the grapes....new study claims they can kill pancreatic cancer cells.... ;)

I learned everything about bonsai cultivation from Mr. Kesuke Miyagi ;)

I had this problem last year....and a wise lady advised me to place mothballs around(not in) my potted plants....havent had an incident since ;)

In the article, they were using a tool that looked like a wood file to take all of the bark down to the sapwood :(

Googled "anatomy of a tree" I came up with this interesting link. http://arbor-day-foundation.com/trees/RingsTreeNatomy.cfm Upon this discovery I realized I'm only going as deep as the sapwood.

so straight clean cuts.....dough....I read an article somewhere that told me to make jagged cuts to premote a less homogenious root distribution. Which, the article claimed, premotes a more natural look. I feel this is the cause of my past failures....because I have been doing everything else...

yeah, I guess you would call it the heart wood
