Thabks. Yeah, made me realize bonsai is bigger than the 50 ppl you see daily posting on here. They reached out to me from a recent ginkgo post I responded in and was a cool guy for sure

I would love to find how he gets the ginkgo to be so healthy. Mine is in sad shape.

sun+water+fertilizer seems to do the trick here

I must be doing something wrong. Mine has struggled for two years and hardly grow at all.

with this time of year and winter coming up, i was planning on keeping these in the garage, in these containers.
they didnt have a lot of soil, but strong growth, roots 10" out the bottom of every one, and i took off wire
per suggestion of seller, they had bit a little into the bark. i added a little bit of soil to actual pots as well
as slipping them into these containers (dont mind the mess), and letting them get 10 hrs of rain overnight

this morning i put them underbreezeway because i dont want to sog them out, 3 days of rain forecasted

figured this setup will help them with our frigid winters, even in garage

once we get some hard freezes and the leafs turn color/drop theyre going on a shelf in my garage
