Why cut paste?
Posted: June 1st, 2016, 6:40 pm
A question, which I'm sure has a good answer.
General wisdom in horticulture these days, is that cuts to trees don't need treatment, and they in fact recover faster if untreated.
In bonsai, it is always said to treat trunk chops/larger branch removal etc with cut paste.
Is there a reason that a tree being cut is treated differently because it's a bonsai? Or is it still just a hangover from years of 'doing it this way'?
