Very Christian of you.
While I am a Christian, this comment is very UnChristian of you, this is a Bonsai website with members from all over the world. Based on an art form that originated in Buddhism and Shinto believing countries. Keep religion finger pointing out of here, especially when you were the one that started by slandering a recognized member without doing your due-diligence.

****RED PINE SEEDLING CUTTINGS!!!****

Be ready in Kabudachi starters and single trees........in small stonewool blocks(1.5”/2”) in 8 or so weeks!!!
Then quite a steady supply hopefully.

*****Growing Trident,Japanese,hedge maples,Coreana Hornbeams,Chinese Elms,Zelkovas———-starter seedlings w/out taps.*****
These will mainly be outdoor grown....possibly seedling air-layers!!! Large quantity though.

Embracing new chapters in life is important. The knowledge and experience gained from previous chapters add in ways we appreciate even more so later on. Enjoy the journey!

OK ,so amazing what the effect(stress) of learning a new career will do.

Idea now is COMPLETELY AUTOMATED growing.
Ebb and flow hydro is my answer to the battle with time and patience of keeping this all going.

These Kabudachi starters look darn amazing really.
I have decided to let these go for sale later in the season so the grow blocks will be absolutely amass with roots.They will be no problem at all to sink into a media of ones choice.

There will be around 300 of these.
Here are the biggest,but the rest will definately catch up a little later for sure.

Taking very good care of these and will be very good shape come late summer and early Autumn.
I will announce in this thread

Here we go again!!! o_O
Yup.Completely automated has a nice ring to it.
I have seed stratifying for winter crop too.
Deciduous also growing a little bigger……..
Seems slightly bigger will yield better results with the aeroponic cloner.Even my japanese maples are ready to push roots @ 7 days.
Loads of girdling experiments.Hopefully quick success so I can release for sale later season

Have 100’s more on the way and also experimenting with chojubai quince ,red hawthorn .european hornbeam and coreana hornbeam ,
Zelkova too,but I’d rather develop them more....
Deciduous are seedling air-layered from the start and vigorous roots!
The Zelkova below is from seed and air-layered only 4 months old......I want to develop these further before selling.
Here's a Zelkova I bought back then. It's growing like crazy and I needed to remove 50% of the leaves in order to get down to the major architecture...

Next June I will defoliate to reduce foliage size and lower it in the pot. I expect it will be a credible shohin by spring 2023.

Awesome!!
Check those roots lol.
The air-layering will give great results over the years.
Taper at the base will be inevitable.

I am getting ready for more deciduous…….lots of plain seedlings indoors with ebb and flow from seeds.

See if I can get some air-layers too,though the mini stonewool blocks make some great air-pruning out the bottoms of the blocks.

Will be posting JBP kabudachi starters on ebay store in a day or two.

Making yet my last career change into the health profession.

Need$$$ lol
Was going to hold till’ later,but this is a good selling time now.
These are in stonewool mini blocks from 1.5”-3” sizes.
Really air-pruned.
Just insert into bonsai media of choice and water the mini block daily!!!
Will give added moisture conservation in an colander ( especially the bigger 3” blocks & 2” blocks).

Prices$$$
