Don't know if that's a jab at djlen, but in the case of fertilizers, his answer is not only practical, it's worth listening to.
I think I understand what you're saying. I don't necessarily agree with it. I think American bonsai has come quite a long way in the last 15-20 years and is progressing ever faster. I mean, was the flat top BC design "conservative?" Is the increasing emphasis on native species the same? I've never seen a period in my time in bonsai when there has been so much creative expertise around--I mean how many Kimura educated experts are there now? Look at the ever increasing list of excellent, world class bonsai potters living all over the US?
I've found that clubs sometimes have a contingent that likes simply being in power and calling the shots. This group tends to sit in one place a very long time telling itself how great its work is--when, in fact, it REALLY sucks. There ideas and trees have been set in stone for decades and are doomed to remain there. I've seen some "knowledgeable" club members trees that haven't been seriously styled since the second Reagan administration.

N is N, P is P, K is K. Plants don't know the difference.
Ask Walter Pall what he uses on his extensive collection and he will tell you "what ever's on sale" at the local Wal Mart (or the German Equivalent).
