Early Spring Work on Japanese Maple Bonsai and Seedlings

In this video, I will show you 2-3 things I do in early Spring to take care of my Japanese Maple bonsai trees and seedlings in various development stages. Enjoy!
- Checking for wires to avoid scars
- Pinch or not pinch based on your goal for each tree (Thicken the trunk/branch vs refinement with short internodes etc)
- Remove unnecessary buds
- Cover 1-2 year old seedlings with mesh screen to create natural movement

Welcome to our channel! We are located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest (PNW)! We are in the middle of our journey to create a beautiful Japanese maple garden and develop bonsai trees for everyone to enjoy. Our garden is under construction but we hope to open it up to public in the near future! Follow us if you love Japanese maples and want to know what's happening in our garden! In this channel, we focus on walking thru our Japanese maple bonsai garden throughout all seasons, discussing how to prune Japanese maples, how to air layer Japanese maples, how to propagate Japanese maples and how to take care of them including pruning, fertilizing, etc.

Your garden and trees are looking wonderful! I'm similar to you, I've just finished my last repot yesterday, I've been doing this for 5 weeks now! Currently pinching the trees that need it! Keep up the great work, all your hard work paying off 😊

Thank you! Lots of work with repotting trees but it feels incredibly satisfying to see them repotted and ready to grow!! 🔥

Hello, at what age does the arakawa maple form its cork bark ? please, thanks.

[@philippschminke3757]

Thanks for the Video! Do you fertilize the 1-year-old Seedlings? (or at what point do you start)

[@loganpirie4387]

Everything looks great! Quick question though, why the steel washers on the trunks of some of the seedlings?

[@MomijiEn]

Thanks! Those washers will choke the trunk as they get thicker causing the trunk to swell and develop roots above the washer to form nice flat nebari. :)

What is the reason to tear those sprouts away?
