Bonsai Masterclass – Maple Bonsai

Post by mtarros »

Hi,

Just wanted to let everyone know that Bjorn from Kouka-En has released their first master class video on Maple Bonsai.

They will be releasing more videos on different species, can't wait to get them all. :)

I was there when they were filming parts of this video and did have a quick appearance in the video. :)
It's bringing back lots of memories watching the video, can't wait to go back to train more. :(

Thanks
Michael

Purchased this myself last night, but given it's size and my lack of internet speed... it's still downloading (approx 5 hours left apparently).

Look forward to watching it tonight hopefully and will probably post a review if I have time.

Been trying to download continuum for about a month now :P my internet connection is buggered as well, but contacted them today and have a reply already with a solution (hopefully). If that works, then I'll definately be buying this also

I did have speed issues last night and just gave up, but it downloaded this morning in around 20 min.

Did not have time to watch it all i just scrolled through it to see that alot of the footage was taken when i was there. :)
It will help me remember things that i might have missed. :)

Hi mate,

The one bit of advice that you wont get from his other videos is to repot Japanese Maples after leaf burst. The rest you can get from the other videos in his series, or off this forum.

There is some info also about trident and shishigashira maples, but again its pretty general knowledge in this forum.

Cheers,
Mo

Haha or that, just thought to be blunt is best and people can make up their own mind if they want it. At least that way they dont go in expecting more than what it is hey?

Still mate love the positive attitude. Good on ya!

You should be able to Brad, that was how I purchased Continuum. You pay for it, then they email you with two links to download it (one is a backup).

They're also very helpful, so you if you have any troubles don't hesitate to drop them an email :)
