I had help, or should I say I let someone else style this tree. Before and after.

I plan on updating this list and using it on my web site. www.mnbonsainetwork.com Its a good list with some good information. Its a good read for sure.

Thanks. I was just going through my botany for bonsai book again lastnight. 45 degrees sounds like the magic temp. Either way after *October I won't see a 50 degree day again until *May. (*=give or take a couple weeks)

Far from a true handyman. First time building anything.

I bet she does.

In the back of my mind I wouldn't mind connecting a duct into my basement to help draw warm air in. That would save on counting on my space heater for a 100% of the heat.

I for sure will be venting. The other thing I need to figure out is the best way to catch the water. I will probably try to install some sort of gutter system or something like it to catch water and dump it into one location.

Here is a blog posting about the cold storage box I built this weekend. I include what I hope is the complete material list along with a bunch of photos. 5' x 8' x 8' http://www.mnbonsainetwork.com/minnesota-heated-cold-storage-bonsai/ It was a good three days.

Is 36 degrees fahrenheit cold enough for ponderosa pine winter storage?

Anyone interested in sharing?

I would like to do a gallery posting showcasing bonsai trees from around Minnesota on my website. www.mnbonsainetwork.com To do so I need images from people with permision to use those images. If you would like your trees shown on the website please email me. I would even except text...

Some things to think about is if the site is hosted on a shared server or a dedicated server. If it is shared then what other sites are using up the resources. Or what changes have been made behind the scenes. A new plugin that is slowing it down or one got removed. I was having issues...

Yes Vance that was a joke. Just for you I created my gallery. I do have website managing experience so I feel qualified.

And also what did I mean by ugly? I just mean testing photos and stuff like that. Or anything in the Vance Wood gallery :p

What is the trick to foliar feeding pines?

Good point about the threads. How about purging some old ugly photos from the server.

Could purge the member list. Get rid of people who have not logged in say in the last 6 months.

You people are mean :) Brian Van Fleet that makes sense as well. Wonder what would happen if I kept that branch for now and framed it as you have so kindly illustrated?

This pine was purchased this last weekend while I was able to visit Andy Smith out at Golden Arrow Bonsai. So it was collected by Andy. This tree is 60+ years old. I probably won't touch it with wire until at least next spring at the earliest. The tallest branch needs to be bent down and...

1, 5, 6, 7 are my favorites for front.

Looking for some advice on this pine cascade.

I just got back from my vacation to Mt. Rushmore and Yellowstone. I had the opportunity to visit Andy Smith at his house in Deadwood, SD. I have been posting these photos everywhere so I thought I would share my Facebook posting with you wonderful people here as well. Visit to Golden Arrow...

Any future styling pointers will be taken, but I really plan on working these into better soil and out of these pots, and try to get some good healthy growth going on the inside. Probably just keep the crotches cleaned up. No pinching.
