Here's part 2: • Jade Bonsai from Cutti...
I turn my jade plant into a bonsai tree. Today we will look at techniques we can use to get this plant looking like a bonsai.
Succulents typically grow in dry areas such as deserts and its leaves hold water for long periods of time. The jade plant prefers coarse, sandy soil similar to its native arid habitats like deserts. Jade plants are great plants for beginners because they are very forgiving and also low maintenance.
Jade plants grow successfully in light conditions ranging from full sun to part-shade. Full sun will produce tighter growth. Grown in shade the plant will become lanky. Day time temps from low 70s to low 80s are preferred and they prefer nighttime temperatures around upper 40s to lower 60s Fahrenheit. Jade plants are adapted to dry climates.
Less is more as far as watering jade plants is concerned. Their leaves conserve water so allow extended periods between watering. Depending on conditions, a watering schedule could be once every 10 days or once every 20 or more days. Do not water more than once every 30 days in the winter unless conditions are very hot and dry where the plant is kept.
Spring and summer are the best times for pruning jade trees. This is when the plant is undergoing the most active growth, and the plant will heal faster after pruning. Using clean, sharp implements, Cut away heavy and/or awkward branches by clipping right above the node. The point where one branch grows out from another branch is known as the node.
Jade trees grow slowly, and keeping the jade plant in a small pot will maintain a dwarf size. If a larger size plant is desired, the tree should be re-potted into a larger container.
Jade plants take quickly and easily to wiring. Wires may be used to train jade plants into various styles, and within one month the new position will become set.

Your jade looks really nice! I know it's a matter of individual prefference but I like how those side branches look now. New secondary branches will develop and fill up the canopy nicely.
Thanks 👍 I'm hoping that the profile pruning will developer tighter secondary branching.
Thank you for linking part 2 in the description!
If you’re still growing out jades and you haven’t discovered larger pots you will get faster growth in a larger pot. I’ve been growing 5 to 10’ jades but I only down size the pot when I’m satisfied with max growth.
Your Jade's plants they all very healthy and beautiful , love watching them all
Is there a reason why you cut the leaves back like that, and how does the tree react to the procedure?
Hm, I would've been more drastic with those trunk-intersecting offshoots! Depends on the look you're going for but there is the opportunity there to have very nice distinct alternating pads with good separation-- but the full connected canopy also looks nice
Fair enough! I can't wait to see how much those branches drop back down after I remove the ties.
@@HerbandRoots I just can't wait until my Ovata is actually big enough to start doing things with!
Очень круто брат!!!!!😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😍😍😍😍😍
