Re: Japanese Black Pine Field Growing Project
I am following the bonsaify ecourse mostly. The main difference is that I am growing in / on the ground to get faster growth.
One thing I have been thinking about us that the course is aimed at producing good shohin size. But in reality I would like a bit larger like a bit larger like 450 - 600mm high.
All the bends and rootwork is aimed at shohin, but will it be too much movement if I keep growing bigger. Will they be too bendy for a larger tree?
