Turning 50 Larch seedlings into prebonsai

- Buying bare-root seedlings can give you a great source of young bonsai. So if you need to source a large number of workshop plants, buying bare-root 3 year old seedlings such as these larix is a great way to get a bunch of prebonsai.
Pruning roots, planting them and growing as well as pruning for one season and you are done

That will be a fantastic workshop! I'm hoping to be able to find tree bundles for spring. Redwoods or Giant Sequoia. Things I can't get from outside here.
Look for traders nurseries!
This is a good way to get loads of material to work with. I did the same with Mugo pines last year, bought like 50 bare rooted young trees at less than €1 each. Good video! Hope your colleagues enjoy the workshop
:) Yes, agreed. Bare root seedlings are great affordable material!
Hope you and your colleagues enjoy the workshop. You have put a lot of time in preparing for it, and I hope they appreciate it. Keep growing xx
Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing your great video! Remember to keep us updated!
:D
Thanks for the video! I recently got a dozen in the early summer similarly bare rooted. I left them alone for this year to grow them on a bit, but I’m excited for future work.
Yes, that is the way to go!
Bravo ! Love Larches
me too!
... this year I also had issue with larches because of too much sun and drought as well. I'm going to grow more of a scots pine.
Keeping the roots cool is typically the main challenge!
Nice development, I would guess the heat got to the roots, they are very fragile when young! The trees that made it look fantastic!
Yes, thanks :)
Hope you’re able to produce a video on your workshop… 😊
Nah, I do not wish to have youtube invade all aspects of my life!
I think it was the heat Jelle. When I get the bare root larch, I chop just as much or more of the roots, and I put osmocote plus slow release chemical fertilizer in the substrate. You did everything correct as per my experience.
Agreed, it is what I am telling myself too. Next to this, these Larches came out of a cold storage. Maybe they were out of the ground for a long time? I prefer to get bare-rooted seedlings freshly dug, but was late this year.
Nice Stuff ! It Looks Good what you have done 👍👍👍
:) Thanks
Good job!
It is a good way to get you some stock plants too...
@@GrowingBonsai Definitely. We did roughly 1.000 of different seedlings this year. Larix were one of the bestsellers.
This was helpful, thanks again
Great to hear, thank you!
I have certainly found with dry root larch saplings I lose up to a third of them. I have done that operation three times now and varied substrate with no difference in results. But...at £1.50 a sapling I am happy to get five great future bonsai from a batch of twenty. I never put fertiliser in the soil though?
Yeah, lots of things there.. I am not sure, whether the heat or the fact that these were cold-stored for a while. I try to get freshly dug, normally.
I hope you will make some pictures of the end results of the workshop :)
I might. Not sure yet. I do not want to bother people around me with my YT channel
👍👌🙂
:D
Hope you still had enough trees for everyone who wanted to work on one. 😅
I had (another) question about substrate. In your big video on the subject you were careful to sift your recycled material by grain size. Here, it looks like all the components are roughly the same size except the coco coir which seemed smaller. Does the coir not accumulate in and block up the voids between the other grains? How does this work?
Coco coir is an odd componen in that it is fibrous and interlinks. It stays open for a very long time, surprisingly!
@@GrowingBonsai Huh.....um, excuse me for a moment while I'm _totally not_ repotting every houseplant I own.
Hallo ich sehe mir gerne deine Videos an nur schade kann kein Englisch leider 😥
Wenn beim video "CC" selectiert, komt die untertitel. TH-cam bieted auch untertitel auf Deutsch an!
@@GrowingBonsai danke für die Info freit mich sehr 👍
How’d you get all the larches rooted that you started with at the beginning of the video?
THese are young plants (2-3 years old) from a commercial tree grower that sells these bundles!
@@GrowingBonsai hi Jelle, can you share the name of the commercial grower?
