This segment will appear in episode 3 or 4 of WorldOfBonsai series 2.
The bottom line of this generational bonsai experts presentation is that those who are mixing akadama with local mixes are on the money. Others maybe wasting their hard earned.

I was just looking up the mix aurthur suggested for figs and there is no mix for Figs? Anyone got any ideas
I use 50% crushed granite 40% Akadama 10% Coco peat works for me very well.
