Best damn video I've seen on fertilizer. You put everything in perspective for me. I was just looking for some fertilizer for my Chinese Elm. And the way you broke down the numbers was perfect. Explained everything I needed to know. Thanks.

I just started bonsai, and I have to say your videos have been a tremendous help. I just wanted to say thanks.

Hey thanks for posting this video! This is truly a comprehensive tutorial breakdown of the fundamentals of plant nutrition. These concepts will work for indoor and landscape plants not just Bonsai trees for that matter. Great topic

I recently got a starter kit for a Japanese juniper. I was wondering if you know of a guides. I'm new to all of this and just started a 20 20 20 fertilizer after watching this. Honestly any help would be greatly appreciated

Forgot to ask...Also I planted the chinese elms in the ground to get a little thickness on the trunks, but unfortunately let them go for a while so now they have grown a little tall and the branches I had wired on the bottom do not really have any foliage. All the foliage seems to be concentrated on the new growth on the very top, which I would want to cut off. :(
Any advice on what I should do? -
Does it matter if you add miracle grow to a potted tree during hot weather? summer time? I heard it might burn the roots?

Hello, what do you think about giving a bonsai energy drinks like Powerade? Has anyone tried?

Edgar Santiago, I have a pine bonsai tree I replanted it in another pot and added fertilizer on April 10 because the leaves were turning brown and the tree look unhealthy. My question is when do I add fertilizer again.(every two weeks, or monthly).

Hello,
i'm thinking of buying this fertilizer : substral osmocote 14-13-13 pellets , they say on the package that it feeds for 6months .. Does that mean that i don't have to add anything every week? Or do i get a liquid fertilizer that i add once every week? thx for the reply. -
Would you recommend Blood & Bone as an ideal fertiliser for all types of bonsai trees like Flower Cherry, Conteaster, Kyoto Scessra, Shimpaku Juniper, Cypress Juniper, Trident Maples, Chinese Elm, Prostrata Juniper and apply it on top of the bonsai soil but should I remove the old layer of fertilser and then apply a new layer ? Whats the recommended time to fertilise for the species that I got?

I have an Ulmus Parvifolia and have read varying opinions as to whether I may bring it in during winter (Wisconsin) and treat it as tropical. Thoughts would be appreciated very much. Nice little tree and I would like it to survive. Info on light, temperature, water and fertilizer would be very appreciated and helpful.

Ok. I'm asking because I saw in a Ryan Neil video on White, Red, and Black pines to fertilize them in the fall then hold off, and fertilize again in early spring. When do you fertilize your junipers? I also have a Hanoki Cypress which I just removed as an air layered branch. I use Miracle Gro tree fertilizer spikes for the larger plants I have. Now that would fit in the time release category right? They are about four inches long. It doesn't say how many times to fertilize on the package.
Thanks. -
I have a small array of material for bonsai which I am preparing for winter into the spring, of which are a boxwood and a few Junipers. Should I fertilize the boxwood in the fall with the conifers, since it is an evergreen, or only in the spring with the deciduous? Same with the junipers?
Thanks Paul. -
We have had a Bonsai for over ten years and it was looking great. Last week my wife over fertilized the tree with Miracle Grow and now all the leaves are falling off and it looks like it is dying. Can it be saved at this point? Hate to lose this beautiful tree. This is an indoor tree than is in a sun room. Thx..
