Hi everyone, after the huge popularity of my first video, today I'm doing a 2 year update on growing birch trees from seed, they've grown a lot over the last 2 years and I've got some 1 year old silver birch and some seedlings to show you too.
I'm also starting to Bonsai some so I'll show you those and discuss my future plans.
Hope you enjoy today's video.
Thanks

What a beautiful greenhouse you have there. I guess everything there is done by you. Very beautiful!

Your birches are looking really nice! I’m guessing that you never fertilized them, they need barely any nutrients after all. My silver birch is now 40cm tall, doesn’t have side branches yet (I‘m hoping that any will develop until autumn) and is just using unbelievable amounts of water! It is sitting in a 50cm tall and 35cm wide clay pot and I still have to water daily!

Thanks mate, I very rarely fertilise and if I do it’s just some blood & bone or chicken manure. They do drink lots of water. Good luck with your birches. 🌱🌱😊🌱🌱

Hi Kit! Yes! I would love to learn how to bonsai a tree.😃 Your trees are looking so good.👍 Even at a month old the birch looks cute...pretty trees. And it's amazing how slow the roots are growing in those small pots. Kit, I do have a question about fruit trees in pots...how do you fertilize your trees and bushes? Totally enjoyed the video!😃

Hi Valorie, thank you. I’ll make sure to video it. I used my chicken manure compost as a mulch at the beginning of the year & every now and then I put a small scoop of fish blood & bone.

I’ve got oak saplings growing in pots in the back garden, all house grown to start with and only just taken out but I’ve noticed alll the leaves have started turning purple on all of them, you had this experience at all?
