    Nice progression on the Olive. Go figure, you needed more heat! 😂 nice work my friend!

      I appreciate it, Sensei
      Sometimes it takes a bit to get through my thick skull. Oh well. Hoping next outdoor growing season is a little better. 🤞🏼

    Great video Billy! 👍 So much patience to save the footage for a year before posting! 🐦💙

      Thanks Jay! The toughest part is putting my thoughts into intelligible words, and remembering when to record again. Hehe

    It’s always exciting seeing that new growth. Olives make awesome bonsais. Looks like you’ve got yours off to a good start. Thanks, keep growing

    Good work Billy, it's incredibly satisfying isn't it?! Olives are a must-have for all bonsai enthusiasts.
    Glad to see the jedi in there again!

      Mine can’t compete with your spooky large olive with the face in it, but it’ll do. It sure has been a blast so far.
      As for that last bit, I’m gonna own it 😉

    Very good looking olive. I look forward to the journey we will take with this little tree!

    Love the updates and who would think they would grow with limited sun. Mine get full hot freaking sun all day and they love it.

      Yeah, it is tough keeping it warm enough to grow outside. My nights are just too chilly.

  • @tacobonsai

    Solid growth. also great beard at the beginning of the episode. I haven't tried this specific olive. The ones i have are just wild grown weeds. Still: I've found that : They seem impossible to kill and even harder to get a good shape out of. The amount of work required to make them look good is highly under-appreciated.

    • @baldyeti
      @baldyeti  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you, brother. Beard helps in the winter, but I didn’t grow one this year.
      Hard to find Olive trees in Alaska, so my options were limited. I don’t expect to ever get that thick heavy trunk that seem prolific with Olive Bonsai. But the challenge of growing this one has been a blast. (Hard to believe my summers are barely warm enough for it!)

    Love your video editing :) Its been great seeing his little journey. I have a small Olive I keep indoors due to the low temps in the UK. I woke up at 7:30am today and put him, and some of the others, out on the window ledge to catch some rare winter sun and noticed a tiny flower opened on him. That was nice to see and it keeps my winter blues at bay knowing we are fast approaching spring.
    Awesome job Mr Yeti thank you for sharing your journey with us.. Cant wait to see future updates on this guy :)

      I don’t know what an olive flower looks like. I’ll have to check that out.

      Yes, I grew it out last winter, but summer was too hot so I shaved it off. Still bald on top though

    As Sam the Aussie Bonsai Bloke would say, don’t let your olives freeze.

    Looking great and I like the little clip-on air layer device. The real question is: beard, or no beard??

    • @baldyeti
      @baldyeti  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I get more smooches from Mrs Yeti without. So currently, no beard.
      Plus, at risk of sounding like Pedro, I was getting hot so I cut it off.

  • @bonsai_life_style

    Not bad. Try to put big lava rock on the bottom it helps a lot to hold moisture and fertilizer, so it realises it slowly and feeds the tree you dont have so much waist.
