Very nice to see a way that I myself look after. Even nicer that I have one that has a thicker trunk than the one shown here. He is my "age president" in my small collection and my whole pride. I have loved their work since the 80s, they were one of the reasons why I always stuck with this hobby. Give you long life and health. Warm greetings from Germany.

@Rorriux Жыл бұрын

The only bad thing is, that pyracanthas that are grown with this tecnique has a lot of chances to die when a real nice and correct repoting occurs. Fat roots can't be cutted off so easily so they often die, they produce lots of ancorage roots in the base... so they will have to stay on a big pot maybe forever =(

@arandompigeon1031 3 жыл бұрын

I would personally put it in a regular pot so it could grow a strong root system and overall give the tree vigor. It also thickens the trunk faster. But it’s up to you!

Thank you for all of these insights. Unrelated to pyracantha, I recently purchased several Japanese Maples notably Koto No Ito, Waterfalls Accontifolium/Fernleaf, and Beni Shi En. If you have used any of these varieties would you share some photos? Just to see what I might expect. Thank you for all you do.

@Gbhmagic 3 жыл бұрын

If you grow them in the gravel... would it shock the tree to remove such a large root mass at one time? Are there trees that you would not recomend this method for?

@LounoirRecords 3 жыл бұрын

nah not really, they have enough to sustain in the pot anyway, this is just bonus. probably wouldn't harm decdiduous ones at all except for most conifers, especially for pines never prune off more than 1/3 of the total root mass - so just check how much is in the gravel. if you want to be extra safe just do it in very early spring (around february-april)

Ahh yes i just remembered whatbi wanted to ask you.. its unrelated to this video...but i defoliateted my maple this year and when it came back..the leaves were still huge..not as big as initially but still too large. Any advice and no its not a silver maple :)

@bonsaiforu 3 жыл бұрын

Defoliation doesn’t reduce leaf size. The main purpose of defoliation is increase ramification. Smaller leaf size comes from controlled fertilization and correct soil condition and pot size. Ryan Neil at Bonsai Mirai talked about this misconception in several of his videos. Hope this helps.

@LounoirRecords 3 жыл бұрын

this takes some years to become smaller regardless. you could just put it in a smaller pot and decrease the feeding PS: don't defoliate every year, every 2 the most no matter how healthy it is. occasionally it might not come back when done too often

@peterchan3100 3 жыл бұрын

I have said it many times in some of my videos that defoliation often results in larger leaves - especially with Maples

@MuriloCRuy 3 жыл бұрын

Just an observation, I'm from Brazil and we don't have a cold and Long Winter here. Another thing is that the seeds that I have collected don't looks like the seeds I have seeing in the internet. The ones I have collected looks like small black dots that stick together in the middle of the barry. The ones I have seeing in the internet looks like a single seed, big and massive. I wonder if the small blacks dots, are suppose to be inside of that massive "shell".

@tayh3645 2 жыл бұрын

@@SorrowPolaris The easiest ones to root were 6-10" cuttings, around the diameter of a chopstick. They grow fast so you might want to stick with the small ones, build good roots for a year, then wire the thin cuttings to give better movement. Unless you're trying to use a gnarled stem piece as is for a small, mame size bonsai, it's best not to use large diameter cuttings here. You also want to check on the cuttings. Once they get those tiny pre-roots at the bottom, you want to pot them up into perlite and treat them like normal cuttings. If you wait until they have root-roots it just wastes the plants energy, since most will dry up when you go to pot it.

Noticed on another comment that peter says these plants are 20 years old, gravel or not, these obviously took many years to get the trunk that thick, I was wondering before seeing comment if these were taken from air layering? Great videos but never stays on track, says one thing but demonstrates another,
