In England we have many ancient trees that are hollow. It is a very natural thing and looks realistic in a deciduous bonsai. Thanks for the very informative video.
@@samyoel5384 I think that is the difference between Western bonsai and Japanese bonsai. We tend to want to make our trees look more like you would encounter them in nature, instead of wanting to see perfectly radiating nebari,, and branches in the exact right spots, like they do in Japan. Crossing branches may not be aesthetically pleasing, but frankly, I don't mind if roots cross here and there: you should see the majestic beech trees in the forests here, they have roots crossing everywhere. And while hollows in trunks can cause deciduous bonsai to rot away and die, there are ways to preserve the wood, for instance with resin.
Love to understand. All reasons for cutting popping seedlings in. Ect. What tree look like in future progression. Just bough my first seed kit. Waiting to see if any grow
thanks. I have a trident maple with hollow inside, it's made from several little plants tied together in a pyramid shape. I need something to fill it, epoxy putty will do. thanks. this video shows many bonsai techniques in one short video. very instructive!! like like
Hello Bonsai Shinshi Will the bottom part of the rootstock throw up shoots too when growing season starts? I once bought a Field Maple that had been in the ground, It had a sort of double rootstock, The top one was bulbous so made for inverse taper, I decided to cut the bottom part away so that the top part had a flare from the new base, I was going to toss the bottom rootstock in the trash but I thought i'd give it a go and and plant it, It sent new shoots up the following year!! 👍 Many thanks for these fabulous educational video's, Keep up the good work!! 🙂
@@bonsai-shinshi Many thanks for the reply, The bit of rootstock I planted was put in with the top above soil level but it was seperated from the tree..
Hi i just had the same problem 4 days ago .. had to dig deep inside the trunk to empty dead wood a finger size hollow .. i did not have bentonite just put some special resin for cicatrization .. why did you not make a Sabamiki hollow trunk on your little maple ? If mine will continue rotting probably will transform into sabamiki It is a Shideshojo maple that had bostrich at the roots base 25 years ago When i bought it , i gave Mashall to kill the insect and it worked but maybe the borer insect had dug too deep inside .. could it be that problems come out 25 years later ?
Thank you very mutch master Daisaku Nomoto, a great and clear bonsai lesson. Muchas gracias maestro Daisaku Nomoto, una gran y clara lección de bonsái.
12:41 -Is that rooting hormone powder? Also, what is the compound used to fill the hollow called? I don't think I've seen that here in the US, yet. (Yes, I'm still a beginner and much of this is still new to me, so my questions are genuine, and not meant as a challenge.) Thank you for your clear camera work. These demonstrations are very helpful.
Hello. Would it be possible to know the brand of the healing paste you use? I've tried a few and none of them work as well as the one you use. Thanks a lot. I never get tired of learning with your videos and techniques.
with your generosity. can you tell me what is the tool or material you use in each of your videos. an example of a material that is like chewing gum. because I really just learned bonsai. thank you so much.
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing the strategy of airlayering and root layering simultaneously. Brilliant! I did want to ask what are you using to wrap the moss? Looks like a tissue.
I want to send you my appreciation for having so much passion in the art and sharing it which us, Wish I could see the results but I’ll have to wait some years :( .
Leandro Quadros não é pastor. A resposta do Pr Arilton esta certa. Acredito que coisas assim fizeram ele se afastar da Novo Tempo. Esta fazebdo um lindo trabalho no SBT de Santa Catarina.
A good looking kaede shohin will turn in a stunning looking kaede shohin!!! Let’s see this in three to four years!!!👌👌💪💪🙏🙏 Thank you for sharing your knowledge!🙏🙏🙏
Hello, if I may, Ive used this material to bond wire to stone slabs. It’s an epoxy putty, sold in plumbing supply. I purchased it from Lowe’s hardware. It is a two part material. A dark inner core and light gray outer. The directions, I followed indicates completely squishing them together. Before using... it has a strong epoxy smell and hardens, to a rock like consistency, fairly quick. I’m not confident that I would use this in this manner, but certainly respect this artist... hope this helps you. 💮 good job on the entire process demonstrated here...👍👍👍
This is because it is easy to make and it is not possible to maintain a beautiful shape for many years. It is difficult to make a tree without a hollow. That's why bonsai has a beautiful trunk. Trees with caves are called potted plants(Hachiue), not bonsai.
Eventually the hollow will comprise the tree. 5-10 years prob not a thing. 30, 40 or 50 years, it’ll be a problem. That’s a considerable time investment to roll the dice if it’ll make it that long or not.
@@questionablecooking7019 trees like buergerianum, or olmus has a tenedencies to make beautiful hollow trunks... and masters like walter pall, and peter chan has amazing examples of hollow trunk maples...
@@thepoppunx This is true but in general, hollows = problems down the road to keep the tree healthy and strong long term. As with everything Bonsai, it's not a one size fits all though. Walter Pall level of husbandry versus the average enthusiast's level of husbandry ... consider what you are trying to compare here sir.
@@bonsai-shinshi greeting from Poland... This is one of my favorite bonsai Channel... Thanx for your work and that you sharing all with us lots of love 💗💗😁😉
You've completely destroyed your tree with air layering: now it will more look like a bush. I also disagree with your statement that hollows make bonsai worthless: there are some awesome bonsai trees with hollows/uro. Way better quality than your miniature.
No disrespect to the master. 🤦 Was for your crazy comment. Hollow trunk and dead wood are worthless on maples. This will definitely develop into a amazing shohin.
Não existe cosa pior de não deixar uma árvore crescer....este é um absurdo A natureza precisa fazer o seu caminho ... Que coisa orrivel ,já ficou debaixo de uma árvore ??? Sentiu a sua energia..??? Acho que não tem ném Idea... Para de torturar as Arvores !!!
