Scots pine help.

[Freshman100]

I have just inherited this bonsai, and I'm a little unsure about the stage of development it is at. The candles are very small for this time of year. It's slow going in the last 3 weeks I've had it. I've repotted it, haven't touched roots at all. It's had two applications of biogold food. I'm not sure if buds have already been cut off, or they are just late. Or if its already been refined to be so small. The root ball was small. What do you All think. I guess it's just a watch and waiting game. It's single flush so I don't expect another growth. Till next year.

The buds seem healthy in the picture.
My scots are either just done with their first flush, starting to harden off whereas other scots (collected last autumn) are just starting to elongate their buds.
The late ones in my yard all have been damaged, so my guess is that yours might have a hard time after the repot. Especially if you did nothing to the soil; it seems to be in nursery soil, that stuff can stay too wet for too long. Adding rocks and moss will not help. The rocks will create humid spots and compact the soil below them, and the moss will inhibit proper aeration of that kind of soil.
I'd suggest you remove those two variables and continue waiting.

OK, I've removed the rocks and moss for now we will see how it goes. Thankyou.
