Hello everyone,?
I have started growing different species of bonsai from seedlings. These are the species I choose:
  • Acer palmatum
  • Juniper chinensis
  • Larix decidua?
  • Pinus ponderosa?
  • Pinus thumbergi
  • Cryptomeria japonica?
Most of them already sprouted!

Because I don't have any experience with these young trees, I would like to know if now I should put them on full sun or on the sun just for few hours per day. Probably every species will require a different treatment...

When thinking about care of any plant or animal I always think about how they live in nature. Under what conditions and environment.

It may sounds like a weird to say, but trees in nature do not move. What can we learn from this information?

Hello again,

I have seen this video on how to create cuttings from pine seedlings:



It looks quite intersting and I would like to experiment that technique on some of my seedlings. Which ones of the species I elencated above do fit better for this technique?

I am quite sure the pines Jelle was cutting is pinus thunbergii.

I have never seen that method before and I am supriced that it works. To me it looks like a very risky method for a result that can be achieved a few years down the lane with pruning and backbudding. Japanese black pines is very strong backbudders where I live. It may be different at your or Jelles location (I think he is in northern Germany close to Netherlands in zone 7).

Some of these techniques are done by the pros who work them on a hundred trees and don't particularly care if they kill 90. I would think about the risk involved before I tried something.?
