Wiring Pines to Create Shape
Vložit
- čas přidán 23. 01. 2021
- I take some field grown very, straight Pines and create something a bit more interesting by splitting the trunk of the tree and shaping with wire.
The results are quite different to the start.

I found your channel during a period of grieving for my dad and discovered Bonsai and got inspired to make some of my own Trees. The process was so therapeutic and helped with healing my shattered spirit. I just wanted to say a small thank you for your great videos without which I think CZcams would be a poorer place. 👍
My deepest sympathies to you and your family. I am happy that you find some solace from my videos. Stay blessed.
This isnt boring at all, I watch these videos to relax after a long day :)
Love these videos Peter. I told my 14 year old daughter that you had released another video, as she loves watching your tutorials too but she already knew as she’s following you too on her own account. I don’t think you need to worry about younger generations of bonsai enthusiasts, two of my daughters love it. Another of my daughters did a project all about bonsai and its history for a school project. I’ve got you covered for fans going forward 😊
If you live in the UK (or abroad ) - you must visit us when the virus is over.
I had planned to come visit and do the raw material Workshop with you for my birthday next month but that isn’t looking viable right now. But rest assured I am planning on paying you a visit as soon as I can Peter. We cant wait to see the nursery and hopefully get a chance to meet you.
Good morning everyone.
Good health and happy bonsai-ing to you all. May your trees be flourishing, your internodes be short and your branches vigorous.
Thanks bro you too
No doubt these videos keep us all in positive spirits Peter! I think it’s safe to say The Love we all share with nature is un-breakable ☯️
Thanks Mr Chan for the awesome vid
Got to get me a splitter. Big Fan
Thank you Peter, your videos are a real treat and I learn more and more each time I see them (I often watch them more than once). I do hope my order can be sent soon, can't wait to get practicing some more. You are a brilliant teacher! Speaking of which, I remember a saying that goes "when the student is ready, the teacher will appear... " I hope I will see many more videos along the way. Stay safe!
Thank you - thats a lovely comment .
Beautiful results!!!! When there is so much nonsense programming on the TV, it’s just so wonderful to be able to turn to your excellent and enjoyable videos. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!!!
herons, your knowledge will live as long as most of the trees you care for. thank you again.
is there any way i could ship you a few maine blueberry trees and maine white pine? they work great for this craft. i also have eastern hemlock. too many. getting ready to clear some land.
Invaluable tutorials, even if I’ll never get my hands on pines to work with, your words will guide me in improving my material, thank you
I hope every single person who watches your videos geta something from it, actually it would be hard NOT to with your wonderfull and informative commentary and amasing examples. I recently got into bonsai, ans you have been my greatest inspiration ❤
Throughout the pandemic I have watched many of your videos on CZcams Master Chan, and you have kept me sane and I have learnt so many things from your bonsai videos, keep the videos coming they are really useful and always delightful to listen to your voice and watch your mastery skills in the Bonsai world!

I've been studying bonsai since I was in high school, and I'd never till now heard of trunk-splitters. There are so many lanky but stiff pines I could have trained if I'd known. Very good vid, I enjoyed it.
From north Carolina been waiting your videos for the past few years i am not the youngest 30 years old but you have got me out twisting up any tree I can its made me get out more i am out walking looking for my next tree almost every day it's like theripy to me
Loved watching the changing of difficult shapes into very respectable plants. Thx
@Peter Chan I just wanted to say thank you so much. I took your advice & my chinese elm went dormant. Our weather has been crazy and it broke its dormancy last week after a few weeks hitting 60 degrees f. But it's springing back to life .
Looking good Peter!
Love the video Peter and your threads of wisdom. I suspect your thoughts align with a lot of your viewership hence the reason why we are here. Also - am very pleased you focused on Pine. Styling Pine has been my Achilles heel and now I feel a lot more wise. Also...also ... nice to see you wearing a Southern Hemisphere Christmas shirt. We might need to make you an honorary member Downunder
I shall be honoured to be a honorary member
Hi Peter, I agree with your comment of finding young practitioners to be rare , I however am 34 yo and have been training Bonsai for over 20years, but believe you me I used to get strange looks by my peers when explaining my passion. thank you for your videos! the inspiration of others I believe to be very important in this field, kind regards from the land of sphagnum (NZ) - Dan
You have created things of beauty that will outlast yourself. That is surely a good use of a life.
Always excellent. The best teachers make the process easy to follow and explain the reason. Like bend the branch back to shorten
Thanks for explaining grafting in more detail in this video Peter!
Awesome..thx for sharing Peter. 👍👍 Beautiful trees 👍👍
🌳🌴🐨 .I had to laugh at bit. as the video progressed . more cloths were put on. Keith Australia
I am so enjoying watching your CZcams teachings. You are so inspiring and encouraging. I am definitely going to give it a good go
Out where I lived in Nevada we had Scots Pines . They always reminded me of Bonsai because they were very twisted and not very large, relative to pines around lake Tahoe
So grateful for the instruction - thank you.
I really like pines ✂️🍃🌲
All turned out so lovely.
Yes,indeed,trees just adjust ,to what is accurring in their lives,and you are just supporting them, with a little twist here and there.
With a fine and happy result for everyone,love it.
Wish you a good and healthy 2021!
Peter thnx 4 all ya video's
Evryone be safe be healthy and take care for each othe.

Thanks Peter - yes these videos and bonsai have certainly helped this past year while stuck home all summer and have something both creative and not out of my control to wok on.
I liked the brown snowman ... hehe
Hello Peter, Thank you for your videos. I have a quick question. Does splitting the trunk potentially damages the tree? By letting pests in, etc. Can you please do a video or say a few words on aftercare of the tree which had split trunk and maybe specifically video on how to properly do this.
Thank you so much for everything you do! It provides hope for the world, and specially helpful during these hard times...
Like each design/shape you selected. Pots selected for this development stage are nice. We have a pine that is just over 5 feet tall. I inherited it. I estimate it is 10-15 years old. You’ve given me several excellent ideas how to reshape it into a better designed literate form. Thank you.
Thank you for using the new microphone. The Sound is so much better!
A vid like this I love most, thank You Mr Peter ❤️
Very, very nice. Love the pots!
Thank you for this new video. Because of you I'm slowly venturing into pines and other conifers. I just got 3 little white pines and a few different obtusas.
I learned an interesting trick about choosing wire gauge from Jason Chan at Eastern Leaf in California. If you take a length of wire and press it against the branch you want to wire and it doesn't move the branch but bends the wire, its too light. The right wire gauge should move the branch, obviously within reason. And I definitely reuse my wire!
I love the perfect 90 degree turn in the trunkline. It's like a big f'ck you to the classic bonsai asthetics!
As usual
You give meaning to things that are thought to be inanimate
Thank you for keeping my imagination alive
I enjoyed this vid. Love pine bonsai. Great job, they get better with age. 😊 Been watching for years now, always waiting for the next vid. Thankyou. 👍
🌳🐨🌴 been watching your videos for 3 years now. always look forward to new ideas ..keep well all .Keith Australia
Thank you Mr Chan for your ongoing videos which I find so inspiring and soothing. I’ve been a gardener for many years but now I’m inspired to start Bonsai once the weather breaks on the shores of Lake Erie in Ohio, USA.
You know what I think about the bonsai clubs, Peter? Us younger folks (as long as I can call myself that - I am thirty) don't tend to connect with others with the same interest in that way as much as we enjoy an international group online. That's how I experience it anyway - I don't talk to locals about bonsai, but I'm here. Same with my interest in poodles and dog training :)
This is the on-line world now. You are doing OK.
Its sad we dont connect locally and make friends in our communities. thats a huge problem that turns neighbors into strangers. Then it easier to pander those strangers into enemies by politicians.
Wonderful. You perform magic with material like this. Very inspiring.
Thanks a lot for a nice , interesting video !
Good work...Peter👍👍😍
Better times will come sir. And it is not just the work with bonsai that have helped during covid. Your videos themselves have also been a great help with my sanity during covid. Powerful mixture of interesting, intellectually stimulating and soothing. Thank you so much for what you have chosen to do !
Thank you for sharing.
🌳🐨🌴 this video helps me a lot. have junipers and pines ..started on these .thanks . Keith Australia
The way you use the camara as a monitor so you can see what the tree looks like from far is quite a lifehack 👌🏾👌🏾😉
And at that moment you say the camera isnt realy doing justice😂😂😂😂😂😂 .. i think it does.. choosing a front .sometimes it better to view the tree 2 dimensional...
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯sorry for writing comments wile watching 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤓🤓🤓🤓
thank you for sharing vidio wiring pines...
Bonsai magician👌👌
My dear mr Chan, you asked yourself whether you did "something useful in life". Reading the comments on your videos and looking at the number of followers, again and again, I'd consider that as a most satisfying answer to your question... Sp many bonsaï friends enjoy and enjoyed these videos, so many of us learned a lot and, I guess that should not be forgotton, will pass their knowledge thrue to other people... And so on...
I guess mr Boris is not up to bonsaï, otherwise he might consider giving you a medal or something...?
About this video/demonstration: again I think it's very interesting and inspiring. It shows quite clearly, what can be done and what is possible with material that doesn't look that promising at first sight. Furthermore, it's quite a to the point demo about how to use the splitter tool and its possibilities (and the angle of potting or repotting). It makes me see more and more opportunities for some of the material I have growing in my own garden at the moment, although I'm not really what one would call a "newbie". Thanks again.
Your comments are always encouraging and helpful.
@@peterchan3100 Well, so are your videos.
By the way, I forgot something important. Regarding the economical and social situation in the UK these days, one could say that you also provide directly in quite a few jobs (your staff). Indirectly, your suppliers (and transportation firm and so on) might also be happy with your nursery doing well... And so: keep up the good work and live your very "useful life"...
Thinking this over, I guess "meaningful" would be the better word...
@@MAMLeers -Your English is excellent
@@peterchan3100 Thank you sir! But, to be honest, I have to consult my online dictionary on a rather regular base...
Hey Peter!!! Hope you are well. My heart is giving me issues so I’m at the Hospital watching your videos.
Get well soon 🙏🏾🙏🏾💪🏾
@@modtheblackmarvel thanks bro
Stay strong and take it easy, best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Take care and God Bless.
👍
Thank you!!
Yesssssssss💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🌲🌲🌲thanks again ...
Morning Peter and thank-you for this mornings Sunday breakfast upload, Great video for this cold a quite morning. I wonder if you staff come in each day and walk around trying to find your previous nights master pieces, live life for the day as tomorrow never comes.
They probably dont notice it as there are so many!
NOT boring. 👍
Great video 😊😊😊
Even the squirrels enjoy doing bonsai.... I also really like how he did not even hesitate to chop the top bit of the pine
oh that mic has made so much difference well done
Hi Peter, very useful video. Thank you for doing this awesome contribution to us and the society. I got some pine trees from nursery but scared rather confused to work on them. There are so many do's and don't on different pines all over Internet.
You had mentioned that you are trying out workshop on zoom. It will be great to have a workshop on zoom as travelling to UK in your workshop is difficult during covid :)
You can book a free 10 minute session with me but waiting list is a bit long.
@@peterchan3100 Thanks for the prompt reply! 🙂 I can imagine the wait list is long! I should hv asked sooner) how can I add myself to the wait list? I don't see any option related to zoom on the your website.
@@kartikeyakarnatak2686 Email our office - go to our website and look
I like ur mudman
I hope i can make bonsai and video like you sir.. good sharing..
Bu işin birisin kral👑 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm always curiously waiting for a new video 🙏
GOOD VIDEO,AND PASSED JASONS MEDICAL
Wow amazing skill👆👍👍👍😍😍🤤🤤🤤
Thanks, great videos. 🌳🌿🌱🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌿🍀☘️🌱
Hello peter
Sending my love n respect from India
U look great in red
Please upload a detailed vedio on fertilizing and feeding Bonsai
There already is a video on this topic on the channel, search for it
What is there to demonstrate on fertilizing?
You either dissolve a soluble compound in your watering can, or drop in a measured amount of concentrated liquid, or distribute some granulated feed on the surface of your pots?
@@andreasweber1533 Not as easy my friend. For the uninitiated, giving the wrong fertilizer in the wrong conc. At the wrong time can very easily kill years worth of hard work. Not to mention all species do not react the same way to fertilizers. Some have special needs, some don't. Let people learn how they wish to, brother.
@@rahulreddy7507 - I will repeat this topic again in Spring. Dont worry - it can be daunting for beginners.
@@peterchan3100 thankyou very much 😁
I love pine trees and you have made them so beautiful. How often should I cut the branches off to keep them small.
Take the tips out each year to create density
Thank you Mr Chan for another fantastic video. May I ask a question? I'm growing trident maple from seed and they have just grown true leaves so I transplanted to a bigger pot, put in some fertilizer and put in a South facing window. Unfortunately it does not look it good shape how much should I water it and do you have any other tips? Thank you
Where do you live? And why are you growing them indoors? They are meant to be outdoor subjects.
I live in the devon in the UK I put them in the window because we have just had frost -3 weather. So i can put them outside now? I thought you said in your video to keep indoors when it drops below freezing? I'm a complete newbie never grown anything in my life so it's all new to me Mr Chan. Thank you for your reply and time to help me.
@@RoyaleJester - OK but put them out in Spring. If you keep it indoors all the time, they will get confused about the seasons.
@@peterchan3100 Thank you again, Could you possibly Create a video on how to grow trees from seed, the different stages until there strong enough to stay outside. I enjoy every video you make and brings a great big smile to my day fantastic work and valuable information for the newbies like myself. 👍
@heronsbonsai Hey Peter, I was wondering if you can make a video addressing sick black pines and how you treat them? I have a few myself and one of them recently got a fungal infection of what looks like needle blight. Lots of my needles are turning brown from the tips and working its way down. I was hoping you can do a video addressing diseased trees (black pines) and how you go about recovering them? thank you!
Depends what you have done to those pines to make them sick.
@@peterchan3100Not sure sure what I have done to it. I have 4 pines, and it is only one that appears this way, the others looks fine. I repotted it and it had some root rot so I cleaned that up. But I am not sure what to do about the browning needles. I've read that it might be a fungus-needle blight.
Maybe you don't ever have sick pines because your so great!
I was just hoping to get any advice on treating them if you did!
@@johnnychavez8269 - You may have cut too much root off but if this tree was already suffering then nothing would have stopped it from dying - not even me !! So dont blame yourself - trees sometimes die for a. variety of reasons.
Great vid as always. How is this type of pine spelt? Never heard of one before.
Beuvronensis.
Peter thank you as usual for shearing ideas and experience to all of us, since this pandemic is still not over will you do more zoom lessons or seminars? Regards from Verona Italy
Thanks Peter. Lots of good information and examples. Do you use wound sealer after splitting the trunks?
Спасибо 👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍
This is a great video Peter.
I've been debating whether to split trunks in my Alberta Spruce as they're pretty thick. I've seen that people cut wedges out to do it sometimes. What do you think about it?
Good call by the way on the anodised copper wire on the third tree. It looked like it needed all the oomph you could muster to bend it.
Would you not consider growing a few to harvest seeds, even just to sell them?
I was wondering if, because you have so many, choosing a pot from all of them is almost like a kid in a sweet shop only bring allowed to buy a handful of one sweet.
Yes you can split the trunk of Picea
Hi Peter, that's good to know.
Thank you again.
10:39 Is that a threat? 😉
Joking aside, this was a charming and informative video as always, thank you .
are you going to do an update of the john naka forest bonsiai you were restoring back in august?
I havent got roung to that one yet.
Sir, I am a regular viewer of your CZcams VIDEOs and very fond Of Bonsai making. I will be very grateful if you allow me to ask such stupid questions appears before me during enjoying your VIDEOs.
No question is stupid if you dont know the answer. Please ask
Hi Peter, when you are doing splitting the trunk, do you sometimes do a cross split or is it too dangerous to the tree. I mean to split it to quaters. (Grafted tree maybe 3/4 inch in diameter) and isn't it dangerous to split it through the graft?
Love your videos! Could the second tree of been a raft style?
Yes of course
I’ve learned trunk splinting from you which I would never have done before. Also when you say heavy fertilize please explain. Thank you.
Super
Great video as always. I have a question... At one point you said you cut off the leading shoot, what is the purpose of this? Wouldn't it inhibit the growth?
I don't like the way pines tastes, but they are fun to bonsai.😉
Sir can I split ficus species plant ? It won't rot and spoiled the tree . Which time of the year is best for trunk splitting.
Ficus Benja , Rasemosa, Religiousa , ficus benghalensis , and neem tree ?
Please help me sir .
Spring and monsoon season.
Good Evening
Sir I have another query , in Calcutta November, December, January and February are dry and rest of the year is wet, humidity level is very high.
I m suffering from bonsai potting soil, I used Brick chips, fine sand and gravels and compost but due to fine sand roots are damaging. So I now decided to use Brick chips, gravels (1mm- 1 inch easily available) charcoal, vermicompost, bone meal , leaf compost , dead tree branches twigs and twine and neem dust ( for insects) . But I m dwindling about pumice stone ya brick chips, lava rock is recommended but bonsai roots won't grow between lava rock, so I am confused. Whether brick chips ( easily available) ya pumice stone ( costly) ya both . Gravels ( easily available) . Ya crushed brick chips ( easily available) with lava rock. Crushed brick chips , pumice stone, lava rock these three will make a mess with gravels and upper mentioned rest of the items charcoal, vermicompost, bone meal, neem dust , cow dung manure and leaf compost, dead branches of trees ( twigs ) musturd cake dust everything is easily available and I have in stock these things . Crushed brick chips ( easily available) pumice stone, lava rock these three are recommended with gravels ( gravels I have huge stock 1mm to 1 inch ) .
Please recommend me to start a healthy long time result given bonsai tree. I m not focussing for short time results .
Pumice stone , lava rock both can with brick chips. Akadema is beyond my reach
Please suggest sir .
Regards for you.
Deb.🙏🙏🙏🙏
Dunno how well itll work in calcutta but potassium based soils are really good for root development
What are the risks of using a truck splitter, especially for a novice? Any tips?
Not all trees are suitable. Conifers are good subjects for this technique but deciduous trees like Maples and beech tend to snap easily - so be careful
Respected Sir, The 1st branch of the plant is thinner then the 2nd branch as I am observing in the VIDEO. What is the procedure to make the 1st branch thicker then the 2nd one.
Be patient and that lower branch will get thick
👍👍👍
Can this trunk-splitting technique work on a Japanese White Pine? My nursery has large JWP in 5 gal pots.
lovely weather in england always means bad juju...
How long do you keep these wires on the tree?
Two years
May I ask for some help .Where can I get these Bonsai pots?
Thanks
Hi peter, are these Scots pine? Just wanting to confirm what Google is telling me after searching for what you called them. beuvronensis?
Thats correct
Thanks Peter. I live in Scotland so I'm thinking about quietly saving a few trees from my local woods just up the road. Would February be a good time of year?
@@andrewdouglas3409 -Yes - Feb to April is good
