- Another bonsai pruning and repotting video
This time its a Ficus Microcarpa which is also known as Chinese banyan or Malayan banyan.
This tree which is a twin trunk style bonsai is about ten years old and has developed nice aerial roots. I did a light pruning and repotting using my bonsai soil mix
• Soil mix for Bonsai ||...
I chose a small shallow ceramic pot for the repotting which actually looked quite nice with the tree in it.
However a couple days later I realised that the soil was drying up too fast after watering due to the small size of the pot. I felt this could affect the health of the root system and tree.
Also summers can be quite harsh here and my mother usually has a difficult time coping up with the watering when I am not around.
So I decided to to replace the white ceramic pot with a larger shallow earthen pot which doesn’t look too bad in my opinion.

My favorite ficus species so far! Freakin love them! Have 2 so far that are thick and nice trees. Hopefully I'll be adding a few more less impressive ones soon. Thanks for getting me on the ficus hype train! Loving my 5 ficus species so far. Now I just need a hardy fig, and a ficus religiosa. Only problem is I can't find any sources for ficus religiosa but seeds. If you have any links to cuttings or actual plants I'd love one.
I love them too. Here in the tropical regions they are quite common. Thank you for dropping by.
Nice👍👍👍🙏
Thanks

I'm enjoying your channel so much! Thank you for sharing all this.
Please what is the contents of Bonsai soil mix ?
Thank you. Here’s the bonsai soil mix

Was the lava rock on the surface for asthetic purposes, or does it do something for the soil below?
Aesthetics as well as soil aeration, housing good bacteria and also prevents soil washing away during watering and rain.

Yearly one ariel root coming on my plant😄
Ficus nana...
Recently I repotted my ficus bonsai but after some days, it started loosing leaves with dried leaves.
Plzz suggest me what to do
Its the season. The ficus loses its leaves during this time. It also happens during repotting. It will grow back don’t worry. If you have a choice do not repot plants in winter.
Thank you so much sir for ur immediate rply
Nagpapalit lng xa ng bagong dahon
Can I report my this plant with nursery soil
Will be better to prepare your own mix like this 👉🏻 czcams.com/video/GdfvAkH6TSM/video.html
@@TheUrbanNemophilist thank you so much ♥️
Sir should I remove all nursery soil from it
Definitely looks meticulous.
😀
Bang biar akar beringin tumbuh gimana ya
Do you mean the aerial roots? Ficus tend to grow aerial roots in high humid conditions.

Post rock.
Sorry my bro, just wanna correct your word. thats not Ficus Microcarpa. but its Ficus Compacta. 🙏🙏🙏😆😆😆
Thanks. Compacta is a cultivar of Benjamina. Microcarpa is a scientific name that covers most of these cultivars in this family of Ficus. Yes sometimes these can be quite confusing.

Do you mean price?
