I just found a ton of juniper seedlings in my front yard. There's at least 100. I just bought this house a couple years ago, and just found them now. They're babies.
i just got one from a nursery and it has browning in between its little branches and the foliage rather than from its leaves inward if that makes sense. what could this indicate and what should i do? thank you in advance!
My bonsai is fucus. Due to overwatering the plant roots has been dead.I have removed the roots totally because they are dead and i repotted the plant The leaves have been falling down day by day but my stem is alive. How can i recover it 😢please respond
great video, any idea why my new leaves are also starting to turn light brown and diee, they also look crunchy! is it too much sunlight or a humidity issue?
@@ScottTheExperimentalist For that i know it helps bring plenty of oxygen to the new forming roots and makes it easier to repot to better soil. Jst have to be watered more often
@@lifeofbonsai thanks! I just removed a Japanese maple from my neighbors yard and planted it in a wood box with chunky perlite, vermiculite, and fine pine bark. With similar goals in mind
I lost 2 beautiful junipers 1 was 5 years in my care not sure why it browned Bec it was kept outside & I gave them ample water but from the tips it started browning then died.am on my 3rd juniper , nice & healthy put in a bonsai pot with bonsai soil recently got a nice 2nd 1 from da mum tree but it seems stressed & has browned @ the tips am hoping I can save it.
Yes i haven't had the best luck with junipers, i think it might have beed that it was repotted at the wrong time. I would put it in full shade and water only when needed and jst leave there . Hope it recovers
I like and respect raccoons, they are interesting! BUT CRITTERS BE DAMNED!!! Sorry that that happened to ur trees, brother……. total bummer. I have to deal with little bunnies that prune my trees for me, it sucks!!
I feel the same way. I feel bad for them but at the same time it does make me upset that it had to mess with bonsai trees. But hope it doesn't come back. If is not one thing is another
An idea for the one in the back left mount the roots over a stone or something and have it go off to the side at an angle so the trunk actually angles straight up or slightly offset to your tastes, these are awesome finds!
Carlos, I personally have had good results with fusing/ grafting with "Vet Tape" I got the idea from Tony of "Tony's Bonsai." I've fused mostly ficus so far but I do have 3 Pomegranate whips I bunched together only 3 months ago and they are already starting to fuse! I love the vet tape for attaching Root Over Rock as well.
Thank you so so much for this tip. I will definitely be getting it because i do not want this grafts to fail again , haven't made progress with this tree due to the same reason
Do your ficus benjaminas lose many leaves when you bring them in for winter? Mine lose so many you would think they are goners but they usually adapt to my grow lights in time.
I have two Ficus Benjamina that I started from cuttings last Oct/Nov and they sat dormant for a while as it was basically ‘ winter’ here in FL, even dropped the leaves at one point. Today they are growing like weeds and they did back bud with barely no root system. Cut it back hard! Next spring. Leave leaves where you can but go for it Carlos! The tree will not be what it could be, the branches are just too lanky. If you cut it back and it gives you lemons, make lemonade! Also they grow pretty fast you could easily start a new tree of the same style if you really want that upright style. However I think a strong tree like that will give buds with some fertilizer, good soil and, sun. Regulate the apex growth so the side branches get stronger. Good luck on whatever you do!
Thank you very much for the feedback. Yes is way too leggy it neess to be more compact . I tried doing thay with a back branch but it just died and never got back bud, so will starr cutting it back a bit more aggressive 😁🌳
The don't like to be dry so water planty if its in good draining soil only, make sure to bring it indoors or a heated greenhouse once once temperatures droo below 60
