    hi. umm I have NO intention in complaining but Mike both shows/speaks a bit… fuzzy. I would really like to know how he bended the steel wire both at the bottom and the top of the pot. I really cant see anything, they even cut away the last part of wiring..

    in that case i can rule out all but nutrients and growth

    Thanks alot for the help :) much appreciated

    It could be serveral different problems, disease, pests, too much water, too little water, too much sun (cant really happen but with some plants) or no sun. Could be trying to enter dormant period, might need repotting. Yellow and dead leaves is a sign that the tree is not growing in certain areas or it is not getting enough nutrients. Most of the time its a water or soil related issue.

    i would realy appriciate it if you could help me with this

    my bonsai tree’s leaves keep turning yellow and falling off every few days some times weeks
    im not too sure on the type on tree but i keep it in day light but not on my window sill as it gets too hot on sunny day, but i keep it near the window when it’s not the brightest of days..i have 3 bonsai tree’s and the other two do not seem to have this problem
    do you have any tips .. Please

    What happened to the saftey wire? I wrapped mine around the tree a few times and between a couple of roots but left enough space to breath. Is this ok or there a recommended technique? Help would be appreciated.

  21. paulyJW Says:

    how do you repot bonsai if you already have the pot full of moss ? i did see some of your bonsai with moss right to the edge i have been told not to do that as the soil cannot breath is that correct or not ????

  22. WarrenNils Says:

    Nice vids. but you forgot to tell us that you CUT the extra roots of!!!!!!!!!!!!
    An important part of repotting has NOT been mentioned…???

  23. whyareyousooofat Says:

    thanks for your vids, they help lots!

  24. eeiko321 Says:

    i think he did trim it but it wasnt shown on the video

    and apparently if you dont want it to grow fast or bigger. you trim it…other wise if you want rapid growth u dont trim them and put it in a larger pot

    how do you get moss to grow like that?
