Its very sad when we lose a tree especially when it looks as good as the conifer in the video does - i really like the idea of repurposing it by spraying - fantastic.
It sure is sad, but the way of life!
WHAT FO YOU MEAN BY SPRAYINH. IT
@@PJ-Loogie95 what?
I got a bonsai tree a while back and it ended up dying. I’m extremely new to bonsai and could use this as a lesson...
Just recently lost my bonsai I kept for close to 4 years when it didn't acclimate to the weather in my new area, and it's still a hard pill to swallow. I'm hoping to continue it's legacy by turning it into mulch for one of my other plants
Love your channel . Been doing bonsai for 25 yrs and yet by watching your videos I learn more tricks every week . Thanks and Greetings from South Africa
Hey Wayne! Thank you so much!
Have you tried using beneficial bacteria to the soil when potting your trees? The bacteria works in harmony with the roots and sometimes a little item like this will help in the life of the tree. Yes, I have lost trees to and did your scratch and see method. Very good tutorial. Short and to the point. Excellent. I know that Xtreme Gardening has great beneficial bacteria.
Hi! Are you referring to microrizal bacteria? I don’t specifically add anything to our soil mixture because the fertilizer we use has microrizal bacteria which helps to improve the soil. This tree simply died because it got too much sun and not enough water
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply Yes. I use the beneficial bacteria in my soil along with worm compost. It is great that your fertilizer does have it. The bacteria and the roots grow hand in hand with each other. I have lost trees also that way. Sometimes a deep watering of the tree once a week keeps the soil from drying out to fast. I find that this helps with my trees from drying out to fast and helps in the prevention of soil compaction.
@@farmert9679 that’s a good approach. This is why we use such coarse soil, it never compacts and it aerate the roots all the way. This way I can also deep water every day.
Massive thanks for the tips, and for your kind words about someone losing a tree. A small suggestion from me too, when you spray please wear a mask, for your lungs’ and eyes’ sake.
"this tree died on my watch"
sad, but it happens to the best of us. Nice to know you're human.
I'm not sure I like the sound of a "golden spray" Jerome!
Get your head out of the gutter Nigel,lol!
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply I'll try Jerome, lol!
Looks like you have a partially 'golden pot' now...
@@TheBonsaiZone Just stick to April showers - whoever April is lol
Dope idea of repurposing the tree 👍
Glad you like it!
Leaves that "stick to the tree" is more correctly called leaves "that have not fallen from the tree" or "remain on the tree". 'Stick' means something a bit different.
Hey Jerome, Mari, I love watching you guys vids. Do y’all have any experience with Texas ebony? Could y’all do a demo on one of those?
Thank you for knowledge
Bro at 3:18 that face and head shake me lol idk but it was funny
Wow amazing bonsai
I watch y’all from Wasilla, Alaska.
Both awesome pots
Lol they delete comments they dislike. But if you're dedicated you can grow a Juniper inside, Water, humidity and light all factor in.
I have a Chinese Elm with no leaves, or buds and it is Summertime here in Kentucky. It looks dead so I did the scratch test and it was green underneath. The top of the tree is a reddish-brown color. So, what can I do for it -is there a way to help it? It is outside in the sun.
Can u put a picture of your Bonsai tree that u spray painted too! 😢I think ours is probably dead to & it is special to:( it was the same age as my daughter on her 17th birthday and she is 19 now and it looks pretty brown so I’m thinking if I am so glad that you mention spray painting it. I just want to see how yours looks and I haven’t checked but it’s been by having to check the scrape thing but it’s been browned for quite a few months and started in the fall last year so I thought maybe it was OK but I don’t think it is. Thank you for your video.
Thank you for your video and I’ll check back to see a picture please
Just wondering, did you paint the whole thing gold?
I am just wondering what it looks like how I should do it . I’m sorry I just like to see what it looks like before I tried to do it. Thank you.❤
Looks pretty, even when its dead...
Can we see how it came out after spraying it with gold? And what kind of spray paint did you use?
My bonsai looked like it was dying but i noticed that had termites I've gotten rid of termites but sure if it to far gone
Super helpful thank you!
The Bonsai Supply: Is your bonsai dead?
Me: Oh, no! Not again! 😭
(It helps to know it happens to experts, too.)
Thank you Mills! We want to make sure we share our success and failures. In order to succeed we need to have both:)
Hello hello there... What was is it called that you sprayed on the tree after it died...
The leaves have gone crispy and hard I have an idea that I have been overwatering or lack of light gonna repot and use a grow light hopefully it works
once they've gone crispy it is too late.
What kind of light should I use for starting a kit growing from seeds or maybe a established one 6-10 inches tall ? I saw on a old video you said a red blue grow light but I'm not certain I know what you mean. Is it just the purplish looking led that comes in lamp or hanging multi leds (red &blue)?
Hey Ryan, Check out our amazon page for grow lights. Use the small Red and Blue UV lights for smaller trees and HPS lights for larger more established trees. www.amazon.com/shop/wearethebonsaisupply
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply cool, ok. Thank you !
I've been watching your channel for a few months now. And very much enjoy your content. And about two/three months ago I defoliated several/many of my pre bonsai trees. I'm in central FL. Zone 9b. Most of my trees bounced back nicely but 2 azaleas and my boxwood did not and I'm thinking they didn't handle being defoliated. Cuz they were healthy before I did that. I defoliated 3 azaleas. The one that pulled through I did not defoliate so intensely as the 2 that didn't make it. I still have those 2 hoping maybe they will bounce back but they look like goners. No new growth. Are there some spieces of trees that you really shouldn't defoliate? There seems to be some life in my boxwood but it's seriously going down hill and no new growth either. Any suggestions to bring back a dying tree? Sorry I have so many questions but I don't see a lot of other bonsia channels suggesting complete defoliation of their trees. So more questions... Are there some spieces which you should not defoliate? Is it better to wait until the tree is several years old? Is there a better time of year to do it? I did mine in the middle of summer here in central FL. Maybe you could do a video on which trees can handle complete defoliation and exactly when it should be done.
Informative, but I just learnt my bonsai of 2 years is dead. I sort of wish he had a more somber tone
Wow it's a amazing bonsai 👍👍👍🤤🤤🙏
My larix has dropped its leafs ? I scratched the bark it’s green and wet ?????
Did you guys move from Florida to Georgia!??
Did u guys officially close your shop in ft Lauderdale? Haven't seen it open for a while now..
Hi! The store is still there but open by appointment only. We have shifted to the online space mainly.
My juniper’s trunk is green when scratched, but everything else looks dead(no green foliage). I have it in boon’s mix & don’t over water it. It is outside & gets lots of sun. Is there any hope/technique for bringing it back to life?
Hi, unfortunately once the foliage has browned up on Junipers there is no coming back.
Jerome, what part of Georgia do you live in? Do you trim other peoples bonsai?
Hey Jason, Im 30 minutes from Atlanta. Please email us at info@thebonsaisupply.com
Nice video. No reason to throw away a good looking dead tree spray painting it is a great idea . A lil off topic but i have a question if u can help my elm tree doesnt have the best root structure and im looking to get more roots to grow is it ok to apply a rooting hormone to an already established tree to promote more root growth and if so what kind of rooting hormone would u suggest ? Thanks alot
Hey Chris, you can try to do a ground layer, which is pretty much the same as an air layer. If the ground layer doesn’t work, you can try to graft some roots in the needed area.
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply thanks for the info ! The roots on my elm are ok i was thinking to grow them more quicker maybe a rooting hormone might get the tree up and running with more roots to fill the pot . i know its for cuttings but i wonder if can it help a tree thats older
@@Chris-oq6kn ahhh I got you! In that’s case all you need is a high nitrogen slow release fertilizer, give ours a try 🙂Bonsai Tree Fertilizer 2.4 LB Jar -Tons of Micro Nutrients Vital for Bonsai Health - Slow Release- Apply Every 30 Days (All Purpose Fertilizer) (All Purpose Fertilizer) www.amazon.com/dp/B07K3RV66F/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_zlhbGb8YR4A6A
Hello to everyone I bought a guy 2 days ago and I don't know the specie fo it, can someone please help me!!
😢 RIP
Can you tell me is the spray you use....
Hey Thomas! It was just a regular gold spray from amazon.
Jerome, you need to correct the title of this new video.
Thank you, I just fixed it! Good looking out 🙏
👍👍👍
Hi, my bonsai is not black or brown it is pretty dry and still green but it can be fallen easily. Do you think it’s dead?
Yes my bonsai died
Ficus benghalensis 😭
my bonsai is dead then :'''(
Did you say you moved to Georgia?
Yes Buddy! We moved to Georgia a year ago but we still have our store in Florida.
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply I live in Georgia and would love another bonsai store here!
What kind tree species died.
Hey Alberto, is was a Boulevard Sawara False Cypress.
How do you spray a dead tree I watch your tik tok and
Watch the TH-cam video, it shows it there.
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply ok neat but where can u find iy
That's some terrible advice. If the tree is alive you're then stuck with a nasty scar in the trunk. Also, not wearing a mask while spray painting?? Terrible idea.
No, the tree heals right over when you scratch that area. Also don’t spray against the wind, easy!
Very helpful but please don’t call us ‘you guys’ it’s slang and shows a very poor grasp of the English language
I don’t have that bonsai u are talking about so this video is not helfull
Horrible video
