Hi guys. I have been playing around a little bit with Bonsai and am loving it. So far I have done a couple junipers, a sweet broom, and I am working on a Maple Stump(not sure what kind). This Maple was growing for a long time next to the building that I work in and I guess the management cut it down. Its only like 8 inches tall but it has a ton of branches sprouting out of it. It looked too much like a bonsai to not try for it. So I but it in some good soil that I mixed with recommendations from the local Bonsai shop and put rooting gel all over the roots(very few) and I am hoping for the best. The tree had 2 or 3 large main roots coming off of it and of course I had to cut those off, which left me with next to nothing. It has been potted for 5 days now and isn't really showing any signs of dying or wilting. I can't seem to find any information about this exact way of obtaining and transplanting and tree so I am turning to you guys for help. I am going to try to post some pictures along with this thread if I can. Also I live just north. of Atlanta Ga
