Tree: Just a trim please Him: laughs in bonsai

Extended period of quarantine has led me here to grow a bonsai to talk to

Saw lots of comments asking this so thought ide write my own. These trees aren’t genetically miniature, they aren’t malnourished. They are a regular tree that is kept small through rigorous pruning and trimming/ repotting of the root system. There are bonsai trees over 1000 years old that are less than 2 meters high. Truely amazing and a very dedicated art form. If you want to start, junipers and ficus trees are cheap good starters :)

This is basically gardening bondage

I don't have any particular reason to watch this video but i watch it anyway.

Him: now reshaping the tree 20 seconds later: *cuts the tree in half*

Came here for knowledge, stayed for the hilarious comments

Step 1: wait 15 years

This is by far the best beginner's guide and introduction to Bonsi that I have watched to date. Thank you sir.

This looks like a real soul healing hobby, i am seriously considering it. Just need to learn some more, i always try to learn everything there is about a hobby before diving in. Thanks for the video, greetings from Serbia.

"you can safely remove up to 1/3 of tee trees foliage" proceeds to remove 80%

Tried this on my mango tree, now it's a jackfruit tree

Remember to use chopsticks to remove soil otherwise this won't be a real Japanese Bonsai tree

What really cracks me up, is that my regular indoor plants tend do die, if I so much as look at them the wrong way. I would have never guessed a plant could take so much manhandling and go on thriving.

I guess from sometime in the early to mid 90's, my dad took interest in bonsai trees and started experimenting with growing his own. The amount of work and time it takes to create one beautiful Bonsai is awe inspiring. The richness of Japanese and Asian culture in general, the dedication and the firm believe anything can be cultivated and refined to an art, seems to be sometimes lost in translation due to cultural misunderstandings. I was considering maybe trying to experiment a bit with Bonsai and just landed on this video as a quick reference..

I really like bonsai trees..I find it so relaxing when dealing with bonsai tree..it looks like an art piece...

I thought bonsais are just a bonsai tree that grows like that ,but its all in cutting and shaping ! Amazing ill get a treee tomorrow and do all of this !!

Great work! Keep it up.

Quarantine lead me to watch bonsai tree videos for three hours straight... i-

Thank you for this! A lot of other channels I've looked at focus on how to prune an already-started bonsai that you buy but very few show how to start your own from a normal tree

"first we untangle the root carefully using chopsticks" * starts going ham on the roots, stabbing them with chopsticks.

Compared to the first starter kit video you make this is awesome, everything is so good explained and very detailed wiring and branch positioning. Great vid.

I never knew so much went into shaping/making a bonsai tree. No wonder they cost so much!

It is a good overall tutorial for basic bonsai making. I don’t see a reason for all the negative comments.

It is IMPERATIVE that you use chop sticks to remove the soil. If you don’t, you will not be allowed to prune a tree in front of a traditional Japanese backdrop and will just be known as the weird white guy that likes little trees.

I remember 15 years ago I wanted a bonsai tree, when I finally got one ,I didn't value it and it was dying,so I gave it away, the person that has the bonsai takes good care of it.

Seeing him do all that with the exposed roots gets me so fucking nervous

This is a great idea for seniors who want a bonsai but don't have 30 or 40 years to wait for a proper one to grow.

Wow , amazing beautiful bonsai 🌳

It's basically braces for a tree!

i have a tiny white pine sapling and a tiny juniper i grew both from seed and i’m super excited that the white pine sprouted

It was a great and useful techniques, thank you for sharing

Well demonstrated. It looked so easy when I watched the video although I know how difficult it is for an unskilled person like me. Thank you.

Thank you very much Sir, this is the most explicit Bonsai video I have found ever.

Fenomenal, excelente 👍👏 pedagogía, motivas el interés por emprender esta bonita tarea. Muchas gracias por hacerlo con traducción al español, muy chévere👍 😜

Just got my 1st ever bonsai so suddenly im curious how they make it as a bonsai! First take care the.plant for years.. prune , .wiring and transplant it! Great turorial! Awesome!

Never cared about gardening in general, except helping my aunt out here and there. But this Bonsai stuff has got me spellbound

What a work of art in no time, thank you for sharing your knowledge and skill, now i am busy, i am going to put in practice

So helpful. Thank you for sharing! I think I’ll enroll in your course now.

OMG, I have that plant at my garden.. hehe.. didn’t know it can be Bonsai.. I buy because so beautiful 😅

Well done super video.very well articulated and the demonstration is crystal clear

A dentist is a bonsai artist with teeth. Braces and wires wrapped around teeth for years to attain better aesthetics. " most beautiful angle for display "

My mother got me a bonsai kit for my 23rd birthday, and I'm pretty nervous about starting it (typical fear of screwing something up and hurting/killing the tree). After watching your video I feel a bit more optimistic and may start considering planting those bonsai seeds (obviously it will take a few years for them to grow, but it should make for an interesting project/experiment). Thanks for the video...I'm sure I will use it as reference whenever I get around to planting and caring for my trees.

Great video! Thank you for sharing. An updated picture of your bonsai could be cool.

Great video. Greetings from Brazil. Thanks.

Very grateful for the expanded master class. I've been looking for such a video for a long time.

This is so rad! I honestly never thought much about bonsai or the process. It's amazing. Patience is obviously required. Near the end you mentioned making sure the wire wasn't damaging the stems. I'm wondering "what if"? I would love to know more or see a follow-up video. Thank you for peaking my interest. You did a beautiful job. 🥰

Will you put it under sun after that, or just half shade while the tree is recovering from the pot? Ty

Its amazing! 🤔I see like 2 leggs under, at the beginning of the tree.

Thx for sharing What's type of wire do u use for trunk and branches? How often do you add fertilizer and what npk ratios

This is very informative and helpful for beginner bonsai tree growers.

Simple, Pratique et Efficace! merci pour ce tuto!!

Very well work really help to start a new plant as bonsai kindly mention soil mixture as well for more information about tree.. Thanks

Wow... Magnificent work, buddy !

In from missouri about middle in the US. In my yard we have two mimosa trees growing and babies will sprout out of the ground in many places. I think it would be cool to Bonsai one. Beutiful Juniper. Thank you!

Спасибо за русские субтитры. Спасибо ещё раз за ясность и четкость объяснения !Подписка , лайк и ждём , с нетерпением, новых видео!!!

6:58 bonsai pot is not amused

Ok, I’m making a bonsai tree!

Thanks! Starting my 1st bonsai tomorrow from a 5yo evergreen bush that never did much. Great ideas!

韓国の盆栽の初心者です。 いろいろ勉強になります。 ありがとうございます。

how to create a bonsai tree step 1: grab a bonsai tree

good to see he included a plant in his wire sculpture.

This is just what I needed. Thank you

Thanks for sharing. It reminds me of how I craft my Christmas tree every year. 😂

Wow wow would be a beautiful bonsai candidate, thank you for sharing my friend's knowledge

ngl, this video is so stress relieving

That was Very interesting the basic of Bonzai, thanks for the video!

Best tutorial I've seen, thank you!

So theoretically this can be done with any living plant and not just trees right?

I’m 100% doing this especially for my other plants since they big

Excellent video, very clear step by step. Thank you

Thank you for sharing the video 👍👍👍

When the tree is already shaped, do we remove the wires on the stem and trunk of the tree?

+Bonsai Empire what type of juniper is that?

Que belleza…espero tener uno pronto.

A really nice creation..I learned some technique very importantly to apply..Thank you..I also practising creating bonsai..

Awesome tutorial!! Just wonder how the tree look now after 4 years.

“Focus only on the tree” Mr miyagi

Corectly explained video...I got what I wanted. Thank you very much Sir.

Looks so beautiful 😊thank you for sharing

Essa é uma aula top demais, e também gratuita, muito obrigado por passar o seu conhecimento, sou sou do Brasil.

Two questions: - How old should the plant be, before you start shaping it like this? 3-4 years or even younger? - What are the wires you use made of? I heard there are different types for different purposes (iron, aluminum etc..) By the way, gorgeous video and super clear explanation! Thanks :)

like for humans, discipline and hard training, makes a better and more valuable man, great job, thanks sir

Movement of the trunk is really good

i almost feel sorry for the tree

I also feel weirdly sorry for this tree. It’s like foot binding in plant form.

영상 수준이 엄청 좋아요!!! 구독합니다! 응원해요!

from pruning to wiring until a tiny bonsai is formed, 👏👏👍👍. good useful.

After I watched it, I decided ill just BUY one! 😂😂

Hi thank you a lot for your great videos, they help a lot . I have one question: Is it necessary to use chemical products to give food to your bonsai ? Is there any technic without this products ? Thank you again Sam

Many Thanks Sir Bonsai Empire for ur inspiring video on how to create our own Bonsai..I will apply what i have learned from you in my next video..

Excelente explicação! Parabéns!

The way they just bend the trunk makes my plant loving heart ache 😂 I'm terrified that I'd just end up breaking it haha!

I'm curious to know how much this tree have grown

So pretty plant. I like the bonsai, I wish to have your plant in my table.

Hi... I’m new to the Bonsai. I don’t have enough sound knowledge about bonsai. If we are doing bonsai that do we use normal soil or do we use any soil combination for that?

I wonder how this plant can survive the brutal torture & keep alive 🤣

It's amazing how many cool comments on this video about a bonsai tree.

There is something brutal about this whole process.
