    Propagating Japanese Maples via cuttings

    No offense taken, I have some in 4" pots of perlite aswell. My next attempt will be some blue larch cuttings. The JMs were first because nobody around me locally has any that arent waaaaay overpriced IMO or have really bad grafts. I am brand new to bonsai and the propagation of trees but I...

    Propagating Japanese Maples via cuttings

    Not too complicated for me. I already had the machine so all it involved was 1. cutting the cuttings 2. sticking them in the machine 3. switching the power switch from the off to the on position And for my first try at this, I have 20 out of 24 strongly rooted in just over 3 weeks : ) I...

    Propagating Japanese Maples via cuttings

    I do not have a dome over the cloner, but the room it is in stays at 70% humidity. I have lost a few but I believe thats my fault from twisting them once they were in the neoprene plugs. The rest have nice roots and will be planted once I can get over to visit my "dirt guy" to pick up some...

That wasnt the case 10 years ago when i got this one:(....you could only get them from nomadic riendeer herders in northern Finland only if the tribal leader deemed you worthy of owning the sacred ancient Kuksa via the outcome of a...

    2 unknown pines collected today...

    ....was walking one of my dogs this morning and spotted these little pines about to get mowed by the ditch gang. I asked them if they could leave em so i could come back and get them later, but that was a no go. So with no tools on me, one hand holding on to my dogs leash, did the ol' grab and...
