Brilliant actually learnt LOADS

Great information! I like that you do these types of videos. Even if I do not have the type of trees involved. It's great to pass the information on by sharing the video with those that need it!

Just watched this video & I plan on trying it tomorrow. Question: how often & how much do you water the clippings while you are trying to get them to root?

This is such a grate video for beginners. I've had a bonsai for just over a year and defo neglected it in that time. Now summer has come and I'm sorting out the garden and house plants, I've gone down a bit of a beginners rabbit hole in the last 2 weeks for bonsai after find, in the greenhouse, some walnut saplings I'd potted up last year from the lovely squirrels stash in one of our flower beds, with the intention of doing bonsai with them. All the advices seems spot on and telling people to do their own research is always grate advice as everyone's environment and needs will be different and you can't cover all bases yourself.... I also love you saying don't worry about what others say. I've started following another bonsai channel (bonsai heirloom) and he has similar thoughts; the hobby is ment to be fun and relaxing. If it's working for you and you're enjoying it just go with it. At the end of the day if the trees look good who cares right.

How old is the azalea in the intro?

Do I plant my Japanese Maple wholly seeds ? Wherlly winged flying seeds?

Is it possible this tree could be 'Nishiki gawa' or are you certain it is 'Arakawa?' I personally don't have either yet but I hear Niskiki gawa' is less "rough" overall I think..

this is the best video that overviews everything on bonsai!

I'll come back in 250 years and see how this baby is progressing :-)

Gorgeous

What's that ointment you put on the Branch?

Sabina?

Aesthetically viewed such branches are not so beautiful.. I'd be very curious of your thoughts about wiring such branches to give them some curves

Thank you so much for explaining this

Nonsense

Nice one! Thanks.

0:20 What are those tiny dots? I didn't understand it properly and I have these on my junipers as well.

Thanks!

I watched this video last yr…… and many many more…… this is definitely one of the best “cuttings” video I’ve seen to date! Jelle, knows what he’s talking about!! He loves Japanese maples and so do I! I have had success following his advice with cuttings and so can anybody else!

I propagated by seed even when they say is very complicates and takes two years...I just kept them one winter in the fridge an then germinated them indoors with wet paper...a little percentage germinated but still a got near a hundred plants... Now I did cuttings and at list they are green in a big percentage

❤❤❤

Nice.

is the rooting hormone necessary? Or can it just grow on it's own? It's to make it into a big tree, not a bonsai.

How long will an air layer plant takes to fruit bro

👍👌🙂

Nice that you share your genuine results over time compiled into a single video. I just wanted to mention that I since I started covering my propagation bin with clear plastic and using a heat pad underneath, rooting success rate is now close to 100%. I've experimented with cuttings left over from pruning, like itoigawa and kishu juniper, as well as boxwood, vitex, myrtle, trident maple, etc. I plan to make them available to our younger club members because it has gotten harder to find reasonably priced material compared to back when I was starting out in bonsai. Sounds like you have a similar motive.

I have a mugo pine I picked up for $22 that had roots wrapped around the truck and it’s only 2” tall before it branches out. There’s a main apex with a purplish cone on it. I pruned it to get rid of whirls, and cut the tips out. Only 2 branches didn’t handle the pruning and my observation is (if you kill a branch on mugo it will brown and die quickly. Everything seems okay with the tree, but the trunk is probably 3” in diameter and super short! My question is: if your Scot’s pine backbuds, will a mugo backbud similarly? I read they do not and to leave needles where you want branches and they won’t backbud? Thanks

Great info! I've had mixed results with juniper cuttings so this is quite helpful. Good to know that pyrethrin-based sprays work on juniper scale!!

Just started my bonsai journey a few weeks ago with a couple of western redcedar I had growing in pots because I had no room in my yard for a big tree. I pretty much just started experimenting and having fun with it. I wanted to get into it more so I bought a few cheap plants. I subscribed to your channel after watching one or two of your videos. I've learned a lot and wanted to thank you for sharing these lessons. Sometimes the lessons come from success or failure. Either way, I am encouraged by you to venture forth unto my own successes and failures. Cheers from the Pacific Northwest!

Thank you so much for sharing your amazing knowledge. You give such a strong rational vibe I'd bet you did programming at some time in life, and even if not that you'd be great at it

Great information. I have transplanted some small Juniper with 50% success, some grow on our property in less than optimal places and are difficult to dig up due to rocky soil. I have never done a cutting. Do you leave the cuttings out all winter? I guess this cutting process is best done in the spring? Thanks!

Très intéressant, un grand merci à vous pour la vidéo!

Great informative vid Jelle, much appreciated thx

What kind of "principle" would prevent you from using grow lights? LOL

If you have a green house do you need to do the bag trick?

Hai Jelle , ooit geprobeerd om een lariks te stekken ? Er is daarvan weinig te vinden op het internet … leuke en informatieve filmpjes heb je altijd ! Dankjewel daarvoor !

From Bonsai to Twig... that tree probably doing really well but still 😂😂

Jelle, het is niet JIN, je spreekt het uit als DJIN. Echt waar. Doe dat maar, het is de professionele uitspraak.

if there's one thing bonsai and jelle has taught me, its that time really is money!

I do not like junipers but i like your videos :D keep it up :)

Unfortunately all three of my bags developed mold. I even microwaved each container for 5 minutes and sprayed with hydrogen peroxide solution... no idea how to combat this.... :(

I need to get me some fancy outdoor winter shoes like that Jelle!!!!! 🤪🤪

Really nice videos Jelle! I saw the one from last year when you took the cuttings as well. It inspires me to try this as well. I bought some small Itoigawa’s last year (just really inexpensive ones for trying things) and have one big one which I will take the cuttings from. I really enjoy the small one’s, but I think it’s even more fun to propagate them yourself as I see this. I was wondering about one little thing; If you don’t have vermiculite, will a really fine bonsai soil mixture do as well or has vermiculite some properties that help them root better? I sift the really small particles out of the soil, and was the dust out of it and use that on top of forest plantings, grow moss and use it for little bonsai. Is vermiculite better for cuttings you think?

Should you defoliate the air layering a little? Seems like too many leaves for the roots to feed

You make some of the best informative bonsai videos!

Love the progression videos, and learning from both your successes and the few failures!! Thank you!

This saves me doing the same video. I had very similiar results although didnt get a scale issue. All my Itoigawa cuttings rooted from last years as did some from the year before. I will probably look to pot them on in the autumn time. I must make sure i have some scale spray available as I think I may have seen that on a few of my larger chinensis :(

Hi you calling the in fill substrate, there does not seem to be any soil in the mixture, am I right
