I have heard from a few sources that soaking a trees root ball in a liquid supplement mixture when repotting for a period of time can be beneficial in giving the tree a boost/reduce the 'down time' in the tree from the initial shock after repotting. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with doing this or something similar, and if so with what type of bonsai (tropical, deciduous), with what sort of supplements (superthrive, seaweed extract, rooting hormone, etc..) and with what results.
On a similar note I always wondered if it was wise to fertilize a tree in the few days prior to repotting? Has anyone done any testing on this or know the effects?
