ive been eyeing this elm for awhile now and finally decided to have a go. I'm hoping I can build good taper with this but I'm unfamiliar with working with someone that's been chopped like this. Any advice?

Ya I'd love to see pics. I was thinking I'd need to repot in a training pot, but wasn't sure- so you think it needs repotting to allow it to grow out and heal the wound?yeah this can but done ezly - what is needed is a much bigger growing flat and allowed to grow unchecked to heal that wound. Then it'll get cut back once again, allowed to grow, then cut back and so forth. All the while selecting a leader for each new growth. I have an american elm that I have been doing this for the last few years I can take a few pics to show you what I mean. Re-potting will need to wait till spring unless your just slip potting it.
Cute kid btw - if thats you. My daughter just turned 4. Make sure you don't use this technique on kids, despite you wanting them to stay small and cute forever.
Thanks! Ya that's me and my baby boy, he's 16 months now. I did try it on his hair tho...Cute kid btw - if thats you. My daughter just turned 4. Make sure you don't use this technique on kids, despite you wanting them to stay small and cute forever.

She/me/I am a girl lol.I hope you plucked them fungally looking couple leaves on the left a 0790 in that parking lot before you brought it back to your "highly fungally susceptible area"? !
Take no chances ! Burn that bit!
Looks a good start!
I thought MissRom was a girl...
I kept wondering what girls name could be Rom...
Romelda? Eew!
That's another one of those things where a misplaced comma changes things so much...which now includes the sex of our pixelated children!
Gotta stop stuffing up @thumblessprimate1 thread with my kid bragging and just start the Damn thread for it!

Miss- me, roms(roman's) mami(mommy)- also me
And what leaves are fungalicious?!
I forgot to ask, I think I'm going to just take it out and repot without disturbing the roots, but should I go ahead and repot with more akadama mix it's in now or a different soil?Yes this should be considered pre material - not really bonsai yet
Ha! I love it!Maybe that one!View attachment 157186
We had a kid with that last name on our baseball team, against the "Spartans"... I told em..."youll never beat a Roman!"
Dont put him on the Spartans amd you can use that line too!
