Great to see you back in YT land Mr G, you have been missed
Cheers mate!
love this style of video. the no-talking w/ occasional annotations is very peaceful. can't wait for the 10 year update!
Yay, thank you!
that trunk line is awesome!!
Cheers Ian, good to see you!
Great to see new content from you Darren. I very much enjoyed this transformation.
Thanks Jason, good to see you!
I really liked how you just started working on it. No words or explanation needed! Especially for people who are a little more advanced, like myself. Great content. Nice material too!
You, in my most honest opinion, are among the 5 greatest bonsai artists in the bonsai world ( graham potter, bjorn bjornolm, ryan niel, harry harrington and you) i wish i could learn bonsai with one of you guys. Great artists you are 👏👏
Wow, thank you!
That’s crazy growth considering the pot size. What feed are you using?
Nothing special, just a 5-5-5 organic pellet. The species is incredibly vigorous, like Trident on steroids (Acer campestre). Great for trunk building, but will never achieve the fine ramification of trident or japanese maples. Far better than big leaf maples though
Nice to see you back doing videos. 👏
Nice to see you Ruth!
Looks amazing! Well done!! 👍
Brilliant Darren! Very well made and easy to understand video! A video up on your Birthday too! 🤗♥🥳
Thanks mate haha not much to celebrate at 41
Awesome Gro Bro. I’ll love following this into the future. Thanks, keep growing
Hi Matt, good to see you, thanks bro!
Thank you, you make everything easy.
Thanks!
Wonderful styling ! Wonderful trees !
Many thanks!!
I have done that and it’s hard to leave it for so long. every year you want to dig it up. Nice work. Cheers from Ojai California
Yes I know exactly what you mean - need to see the progress. It’s like xmas when you get to see though!
Excellent as always. Great to see you back creating. Thank you for sharing 👍
Thanks, I'm back and determined to make it work :D
@@grobonsai great to hear. Fab tree's, great production and a flair for presenting! What mire could an enthusiast ask for?! Thanks again 👍
This is a really good and clear demonstration - thanks. I am itching to get out and do the same with some of my field grown material. Very motivating Darren :)
Thanks mate, good to hear from you!
@@grobonsai I know you are a busy man Darren but feel free to reach out if you ever fancy it :)
Awesome!
Glad you think so Nigel!
Love your content! Please give us more 🙏🏻
Thanks! That's the plan :D
Beautiful trunk line. Well done so far 👍
For the climbing plants that cover the facades of the buildings (honeysuckle called Caprifoi, wild grapevine, other ones) we can apply the same techniques to them as for bonsai)? In this sense, by what percentage will the plant's development be reduced and how will it develop from the point of view of appearance?
Great question, it’s very difficult to answer as there are many variables. Pot vs ground is approx 30-50% slower. Bonsai pot can be as low as 25% slower than a normal flower pot. This is all just estimates, very different results can be seen depending on all sorts of factors
Loved the video Mr Darren . Great work!
Thanks friend, I saw on instagram that your collection is doing well
@grobonsai the collection is growing rapidly each week 🤣
Love to see new stuff from you. ⭐ Also those tools look good, getting a lot of abuse and still going.
Always appreciate your support mate, you've helped me through some pretty dark times ngl
Very nice video!
thanks
Awesome
Great video man! You have a new subscriber!
Welcome and thank you
Thanks Darren. Looking forward to seeing this grow. Why did you keep the two shoots at the base? Are they sacrificial, or do you plan to use them somehow, eg. a thread graft.
Good question! A few reasons, the trunk is a little oval, strengthen the roots below the branches, keep sap flowing around wounds above. And yeah, convenient candidates for thread grafts
Very nice Video and thx for showing us 👍
Cheers Tom, good to see you

@@grobonsai 🙇♂️
this is a really nice tree. sorry to be picky but at 5:02 you cut a branch making the trunk straight. If you would have left that branch and instead cut the trunk just above it you would have added better movement. Sometimes I do this type of pruning over a few days or weeks and think things through. It's a bit like a chess game of thinking ahead. Really great oak!!! this one will be will turn out great. keep up the good work
I opted for the better taper this time, but I think there is a bigger move on the horizon!
I’ve always wondered what the raised walls of bark are on the branch you cut at 3mins. Is it a fungus that makes it grow like that or a juvenile branch protection mechanism?
I’ve heard it’s either the result of vigorous growth, or a virus. But I don’t know! It’s very soft, corky, and disappears in a season or two
is there a reason you left the two branches on the buttum of the trunk?
It's always nice to have options for thickening the base. Also the one under the scar will keep sap flowing, helping speed up healing and keeping any roots underneath active. It's not strictly necessary with field maple, but it's good practice in my opinion
Excelente 👋👋🌎💖
Thank you!

Salam satu hobby master....
Paraqué sirve la pasta gris?
I use two products. One is the epoxy putty because the wood was rotting, tree heals better on firm material. The wound treatment paste helps prevent die-back and contains a hormone to encourage faster healing.
Utilizo dos productos. Uno es la masilla epoxi porque la madera se estaba pudriendo, el árbol se cura mejor en un material firme. La pasta para el tratamiento de heridas ayuda a prevenir la muerte de ramas y contiene una hormona para fomentar una curación más rápida.
@@grobonsai wow, eso no lo sabia. También se puede usar en matas ó en árboles? Donde la puedo conseguir y cuanto cuesta. Gracias por r
esporder, eres increible!
Nice to see you again. Wish there was a way to communicate more directly with you, messenger i.e.....greetings from Kenneth 😊
Hi Kenneth, good to hear from you. If you email grobonsai@gmail.com I'll send you my Facebook. Fair notice though, I am terrible at responding in a timely manner - ask @almac2598 :D
@@grobonsai thank you. I'll send an email asap.
Sweet!
