Holy moly, this video format is spectacular. Community engagement, fast exposure to trees and seeing what other enthusiasts are doing, getting full solutions with context and nuance, and aesthetic critique. I really do hope to see more of this.
There are hundreds of these videos on Mirai Live. Most helpful bonsai content available
Ask him for a baby too 😅
Wow, this is incredible. Please do more of these!!! Also, love the comments like "Drop the kids off at school"
I started watching your videos for maybe 5 or 6 years now. I started with the BSOP series the summer before lock-down and, as much as I'm still learning little bits here and there when I can, people like yourself* have given me such a strong, principled foundation for cultivating Bonsai.
I finally finished my Architect's diploma, meaning I've been able to let the some significant trees grow and establish for 1-2 years and enjoy the informed decisions I made 2, 3, 4 years ago. Now around 5 years into bonsai, I can feel thankful and proud watching a newer video like this. There is affirmation in being able to make my own judgements on the trees being reviewed, and being able to anticipate a professional's suggestions and thoughts in most cases. I owe that competence and confidence to you guys*. So thank you and keep it up!
*You, Ryan Neil, your crew and guests; Peter Warren, Harry Harrington, Tony Tickle; other Western pros; TH-cam generally; the surprisingly plethoric rabbit hole that is Japanese TH-cam; and even British commercial pros such as Greenwood and Herons, who have some good logistic tricks of the trade.
I'd like to echo one of the participants' comments and thank Ryan and his team for helping me in the last 5 years gain such in depth understanding of the purpose and details of each operation performed on different types of trees in various stages of their journeys. Ryan's eloquence and attention to detail in his explanations helped me establish a solid base in bonsai theory, from which i could take various risks, chances, perform experiments, and allow my creativity to flow. I have been following several practitioners, but i think Mirai's format is one that served me the most (especially considering all the free content to start with). Thank you guys so much and i love this hobby!!
Thanks, Ryan. Just by listening I learned some tricks and design rules.
This is an amazing content! Please make these critiques/Q&A a staple for Mirai!!!
These have been a staple for years. They are on Mirai Live
That beard has been heavily and correctly fertilized 👌🪴
I'm excited for the possibility of an asymmetrical design as he develops the secondary ramifications of this beard in development
Thanks so much after all this time to all of you at Mirai.
30 seconds in and you can tell this is a professional on a different level.
Thanks Ryan and team
This is killer ! Hope i can work my way to sub again, but love this format. ❤
You're the man Ryan!
Yeah i totally agree and i made a similar comment on another Video some time ago. I am new to Bonsai but have a lot of knowledge in Biologie and Plants due to my degree. He has so much knoeledge in Biologie and Bonsai and he works Wonders linking those two for me! Thank you for your great content Neil!
I for one like the beard growth!
Agreed, really tells a story 😎😁😊
Thank you for sharing
Ryan, nice beard ramification 👍
You are looking a lot like Rick Grimes at the moment! Awesome vid as always tho, especially during a zombie apocalypse!
Định hình một cây bonsai thật tuyệt vời 👍
Best.
Je vous remercie pour vos eclairage . Cordialement
I'm assuming the bonsai styling lecture mentioned at 31:59 is in the Bonsai academy on the website?
Can someone link me to the “styling process” video that was recommended in the first 1/4 of this video? Thx
“Dropping the kids off at school…”
Got it👍🏾
ummm I like this format a lot.
When you say bi monthly, is that twice a month or once every 2 months? Going to join and document more thoroughly my stewartias and acer palmatums in early development. this is something I need to plan for.
Idea for user submission requests: As one photo place the tree on a lazy susan and send a short video of all sides slowly rotating in addition to other pictures submitted.
It's every two weeks
👏👏👏👏
👍👍
At first I thought Ryan was doing a Christopher Walken impression.
Please explain to me why the forth side is not the Front of your first tree . The forth side radiates akind of power and dynamisch that is second to none. This ( excuse me please ) terrible jin and the dead Wood only make the tree look sick. There are so many hard cuts on the first side that i suspect the Trunk is rotten right down to the roots. My approach would be to process the dead wood so that no more germs can develop in it . Then i would let it grow with pleny of food from spring to autumn without pruning and cut it back into shape shortly before the next shoot. Then i would do another year with normal pruning so as not to lose the inner buds. I would repeat this for probably four years so that the trunk heals nicely . Only then would i seriously start thinking about the front of this tree. I think you know everything about what i wrote about the procedure here. Compared to you i am a bonsai beginner. I would be grateful for an answer that confirms or rejects my approach because……. Thank you for your work and for allowing us to be a part of it
👍👌🙂
foist
What happened to Eve ?
Looking like a wild mountain man - hope this was an aesthetic choice and not a stressed out RyGuy.
Lol...his hair had that dry sphagum moss look going on.
Thats like, 30 blinks in the first 10 seconds, you gota rest man
My first impresion was..who is this bum!!! :)
You just never stop learning, you think you're good on knowledge but nope!
For some reason the beginning of the video sounds and looks like a beginning of a conspiracy theory video. Ryan is about to tell us what "the man" doesn't want us to know about bonsai, so take notice!
making bonsai seem complicated is not art
Bonsai can be very complicated, and it is DEFINITELY art. There are many elements of traditional artistic design in bonsai.
