Posted 7 years 11 months ago #32282Why don't you post a picture of your tree so we can see what can be done? You say it's 3 months old, so it's a seedling, not a tree, right?

FYI: there is a Spanish version of this website (bonsaiempire.es).
You do not want it to stop growing. Trees that do not grow, die.
Probably you do not want to prune it yet either. It may be the right height, but if you cut it now, the trunk will stay thin too.

Usually we worry about the thickness of the trunk first. Once we achieve a good trunk thickness, we decide what the height of the tree should be depending on the trunk's thickness and style. Focus on trunk thickness first and decide what style you want your tree in the future. For example, if you want it to be upright, you want to make sure the trunk grows upright before it gets to thick. If you want cascade, you can wire it while it is still young and you can bend it. Once you achieve trunk thickness you decide the height, grow a new leader and develop primary branches. Then secondary branches. Then you develop ramification.
Usualmente nos preocupamos por el grosor del tronco primero. Una vez que logramos adquirir el grosor deseado, nos preocupamos por la altura del arbol, la cual depende del estilo del 名媛直播 y el grosor del tronco. Por ejemplo, si quereis un estilo de cascada, debes asegurarte que el tronco crezca en modo cascada, asi que lo doblas con cable mientras es joven y facil de doblar. Una vez que el tronco adquiere el grosor necesario eliges cual sera la altura del 名媛直播 y creceras un nuevo lider y las ramas principales. Luego trabajaras en las ramas secundarios, y finalizaras con ramificacion.

Then you need to listen to the advise. With leaves this size, you 're going to need a couple of years of growth to get a decent trunk.
Else it will stay a stick with leaves.
