Re: collected 80 -100 kg olive stumps
Congratulations. I know myself once a tree is in a real pot it gets much better care so I think this one will really prosper now.

There are many ways to do things, but only one "best" way.

Re: collected 80 -100 kg olive stumps
This one is very very ordinary stock. Almost bin worthy ha ha. Took the chainsaw to it again. Still looks like crap but lets see what the future holds. Maybe a rubish dump lol.

A stick in a pot is better than no stick at all. Remember even the best bonsai started as a stick.

Holy crap grainer that thing is huge lol. Much better stock than mine. My plan for the last one is to eventually hollow out the trunk completely.
