This method can be easily adapted to elms, hawthorn, olives, pines etc - only the time frame may change.
Now go and get busy and don't forget to post your accomplishments here in this thread.

How timely is this thread? I bought home a Willow Leaf Fig today because it wasn't doing as well as I thought it should be where it was.
Guess what I am doing tomorrow?

Hey Guys Im a beginner and this might be a stupid
question , but, will this method work on other spiecies aswell???
They obviously have to be fast growing tress dont they?
I would like to try this on some olive's i have.
Thanks for the info

Jase, yes. Give it a go.


Steven, I have been waiting for this for a long time. I have a massive, strangler around the corner. Tonight, it's going to get a massive prune!!
Thanks heaps mate!

Thats just what I needed...great job.

Any chance you could put it in a pdf format or something so people can print it out. Because when I tried printing it out it would just be blurry because
the pictures are too small. Or maybe put bigger pictures so we can print it out since its such a great thing

Edit: Dont worry I figured it out...it was my mistake, it prints nice and big now Cheers

[Levuccio]

Btw, I think it would be a great idea to add a "Tutorial" section, this way you could find all great tutorials in one place.

What do you guys think?

Hi Steven,

great post.

I assume this would work with larger fig cuttings, therefore shortening the time for trunk thickening?

Awesome work Steven.
Looks like there will be a fig splurge happening out in AUS BONSAI world.
Thanks John.
