    Monterey Cypress from Seed

    Thank you. Such a cool tree, such a great job you've done. I have fifteen little ones that I started a couple of years ago. The foliage is just starting to change, pretty exciting. I have a couple of questions, how tall did you let it get before you cut it back? And how much of the base...

    questions about possible diseases

    Uh oh, already transplanted it. It was in ordinary potting soil, and it did seem pretty wet for not watering it in a while. It looked like it was on it's way out anyway, see what happens. Thanks for the help

    San Francisco is freaking awesome!

    These are from one windowsill. My girlfriend collects hundreds of these thing. Around here succulents are indestructible and propagate like crazy. Don't know how they'd do in Maryland, but I doubt the trip would kill them.

    I can't figure out how to get my picture file size small enough to post. Would it be worth transplanting into a more freely draining medium now?

    questions about possible diseases

    I was wondering if anyone knows what might be killing, or possible already killed, a very young trident maple I have. It started out strong earlier this year with lots of knew growth and healthy green leaves. Then some of them started turning brown beginning at the edges. Not crispy dried out...

    Growing Out: Potting Soil vs. Bonsai Soil

    I wish I read this thread before all the other crazy soil debate threads. I figured I needed to plant everything into a perfect particle sized inorganic mix, and now I need to water my seedlings twelve times a day.

    Where to find inexpensive Pumice?

    I was on my way to check out American Soil And Stone in a couple of weeks, the one in San Rafael. But our cars small. Do they only sell by the yard? No bags?

    Oak seedling yellow

    I've been wondering about this baby oak, it's come up yellow. I've planted a bunch of them and they're all green, and they always have been in the past, and they always are when I see them sprouting up out in the wild. I figure it must be some deficiency of disease of something along those...

    A few pine seeds, 6 years later.

    Oh, I misread. I guess I got excited when I read "monterey" and acorns since oaks and Monterey cypress are the seeds I've planted this year. I know the oaks might be susceptible to the sudden oak death, mainly if I try to plant them out (does this affect potted trees), but I've been hoping the...

    Bleach

    The tanks big, not sure how much water it holds but it supplies two houses. It doesn't smell like anything, but we were told not to drink it. What does leaving it in a bucket do? And what's anti chlorine fish stuff? Thanks for the help.

    Bleach

    So, a rat was found floating in our water system and now there flushing it with bleach. 2 cups every so often for four days. It's really hot today so I'd like to water, would the bleach harm the plants?

    Coast Live Oak from Santa Cruz

    So I've just defoliated and dug up an oak. It's a weird little one, has a ton of little branches all over the place. Should I cut some or most of these back now? Or is it important to let it heal first.

    Big leaf or canyon maple

    When I read the title I expected this to be about the big leaf maple that grows wild in my canyon Acer Macrophyllum. There leaves are huge, like 9 or 10 inches. I'd like to see what it looks like as a bonsai, like a maltese or what ever those weird dogs are. Yours is Acer Grandidentatum? I...
