Hey everyone! Garrett here!
In this video I am going to go through the steps to show you how I mixed up a lot of bonsai soil medium, and it was really really cheap, and you can find them all locally! This is a great way to stock up on a bulk supply that will stretch a long way!
First of all, I would like to thank the legendary Nigel Saunders ‪@TheBonsaiZone‬ for his videos on mixing up this blend and providing us with his knowledge of how to make a bunch of soil inexpensively! So thank you again Nigel. This knowledge really helps people within this community a great deal!
I mixed all of these parts at a 1:1:1 ratio. You may need to adjust the mixture depending on your climate needs.
-Fullers Earth Clay - Saf T Sorb brand - The Tractor Supply - About $7
-Perlite - Home Depot - About $4
-Mini Pine Bark Nuggets - Home Depot - About $4
Thanks for watching everyone!

It’s worked for me for years. Same formula. My trees don’t deserve sifted soil yet 😊. Thanks, keep growing

That's a good idea. I found the clay does breakdown faster and it works best for some types or even younger stages of plants. I have sat down and sifted so many things. I need to come up with a new invention for a motorized sufter for bonsai. 😂

Nice job! I use a cheap sungrow electric wood chipper to chop up bigger pine bark pieces.

The sunjoe or sungrow? Looked it up and only found “sunjoe electric wood chipper”.

Very nice mixture! I think you could be okay sifting at an 1/8" though. It will save you a little extra soil. Just my thought. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for watching! I actually think it might have been an eighth inch or so mesh, I never really measured it, it was just some extra toolbox lining that I had laying around.

Great video, thanks for sharing your soil mixture. Do you make any changes depending on type e.g. deciduous Vs conifers?

Hey Alex thanks for watching! That really depends on the climate that you are in. I live in Central Florida and it gets super super hot here and never snows and I need more water retention so I would use this mix for both types where I am located. But if you were somewhere that doesn't get as hot, I would maybe not add as much pine bark to the mix.

Rent a small leaf shredder from Home Depot $20. Run the whole bag of bark through. Sift it with a half inch screen, and run the large leftovers through the shredder again. Oh, and wear a mask. 😊

But there is no nutrients in this mix. Don't you add something nutritive to it ?

Fertilizer is added during the putting of the tree depending on the species of tree.
