I have heard about Kushida Matsuo's growing techniques, involving a colander, raising seedlings to trees in a few years.
Unfortunately, I haven't read his article, and even more I don't know where to find his article. Can anyone point me in the right direction, so I can read about his techniques myself?
From my understanding, he uses the techniques solely on pines. I understand their use in more advanced bonsai gardens, but the length of time that is involved in raising them means it's hard to put off learning from them for too long. As such, I was hoping to start a few seedlings using his methods (if they seem reasonable). This way, in about seven years I should be at the point where I'm ready to attempt to manipulate the trees, while using those seven years to get a better grasp on other deciduous trees.
Any help?
