@rich91895 жыл бұрын
@@lordfluffybuns3962 starting a bonsai is a great idea. however, starting one in the summer may not be the best. it all depends on the species of tree and the way you intend to start one with (growing from seeds or cutting, using nursery stock ect. ). i started training a spruce just after xmas this year and it seems to be doing well. this is a very good channel to help you get started, and there are many other good ones too. but the best advice i have ever been given is this. don't forget to water.

@@rietzhu I did say it depends on species and the way you intend to start. To clarify, Starting from seed mostly best in spring, Starting from cutting mostly has to be done in Summer Starting from nursery stock can be done in Summer, but major work (pruning, repotting etc.)is best done in early spring. If you know differently please let me know as like most bonsai enthusiasts, I'm always looking to learn.

I’m going to be that guy you mentioned. Removing that left branch would have created asymmetry in the design which would have created a lot more interest in the tree. The balance could have been compensated for by bringing the upper foliage down a bit and replanting the tree to the left of the pot. This would have made the tree less symmetrical and therefore more interesting as well as removing the handle bar effect.

Thank you again Peter, the narration of the thought process is very valuable. Also leaving that branch will probably build the bottom of the trunk a bit more to give it some more taper so the tree won't look like a coil spring. It can be removed in the future.

Thank you very much for your videos, I always enjoy them. One thing I am not understanding of your approach, is why is it relevant to decide which one is the "front" of the tree vs, the back...? It doesn't make a lot of sense to me as the notion of one side being the "front" is dependent on where the observer is located when he's looking at the tree. But that can change, in fact, it will always change as one in moving around etc...
