This is one of my main teachers, ive been learning from him for 5 out of my now 7 years of bonsai cultivation. He has an extremely high IQ and has many degrees. He lives in Japan and is getting another degree in Japan is fluent in Japanese and is a famous Bonsai Master. The tree in the picture is a 300 year old Shimpaku Juniper worth $40,000 USD. If I didnt know what I was doing I would have never been allowed to work on this tree. Ryan Neil is another famous Bonsai Master I work with. He has an extensive degree in horticulture and also spent 8 years in Japan. His 8 years was spent apprenticing under Masahiko Kimura the most famous and accomplished bonsai master in the world. These are only two Famous Bonsai Masters I work with. To say I dont know plants is highly incorrect.

I do but I also know to pre soak them and I know enough to by ph neutral ones, but you must know that. And WTF does a bonsai tree have to do with a pot plant unless you want to keep a mom for a very long time lol. And another thing I thought you were leaving .... Can't count how many times I've heard that one ...... View attachment 3723791
Horticulture is horticulture. And I do know to use neutral materials, I didnt clone this strain, the clones were already rooted in Jiffy Pellets and came from Colorado. Knowing what I know about peat I figured the peat pellets would affect the water ph and it did everytime I top watered for a while until the pellet finally became the same ph as the water I use. 5.8 ph.

Ok ok lol. Jeesh. So it was the peat pod then that caused your ph swings, it's amazing that the clone rooted and survived if it was out that much, lucky.

Step 1: Open provided photo.
Step 2: Right click on provided photo
Step 3: Select search Google for this image
Step 4:Troll and/or Liar
Yes I got that image off google, but that does mean anything. The only pictures I have of this tree I am in the photo and I am not posting that here. Your correct, I went to google and got this picture to show one of my teachers and one of the famous trees. This tree is in Japan, I cant afford a $40,000 tree. So no I am not a liar, try again!

Because defoliation is a technique I use every single year. It is a primary bonsai technique and quess what, if you do it durring veg it promotes more branching. Durring veg everwhere you remove leaves new branches will pop but the plant has to veg long to recover. You can completely defoliate a pot plant in veg and it will pop new branches at every node instead of just topping and getting two. I defoliate trees every year and know exactly why I do it, what it does to the plant, and how it will respond. It pisses me off that I have spent time, money, hours of reasearch, reading, studing, working with people to come here and be told I know nothing about plants. I promise you I know what im talking about. If you defoliate canbabis durring veg it will push a whole new set of branches in creasing ramification and the plant will put out the exact same amount of leave surface area but the leaves will be smaller and will allow more light and air into the plant. More light and air also promotes branching. More branching, more bud sites, smaller leaves more light and air can penetrate. Trust me, ive spent a lot of years and money to learn plants.

So your saying that everywhere you pull a leaf you'll get a branch, and all of these branches will produce a viable bud site? Let me stress that I don't care one way or the other just never seemed to work for me. Just want a more detailed guide if you don't mind. What is ramification, that's a term I've never heard related to a plant. How much percentage wise does it increase your yield, estimate of course. And so you do defoliate your outdoor grows as well? You did this for light penetration and air flow? Also you mentioned boosters and additives but don't like AN why is that, are they not the king of additives and boosters? What are you using for nutrients and booster, etc.

I get called a troll, moron, liar, and dont know anything about plants or horticulture but you dont know what branch and root ramification is. Ramification is rooting or branching network. Branch structure. Pruning ora branch or topping a plant to increase branch ramification or cola's. One turns to two, two to four, four to eight, ect.. AN is watered down. Read the bottles and compare your nutrients. I use all GH, full line advanced products and all. And yes all those products benbefit plants but I am not getting into another shiting contest over that. Example, AN's Rhino Skin Silica 0.01%! GH SI Silica 10%. Pro-Tekt 7%.

Again a very pretty plant but also again WTF does this have to do with pot and I might point out showing pics of 300 year old plants that someone else is working on still doesn't make me think you know how to grow a pot plant, sorry. You really lost me on the many years of growing outdoors and your first hydro plant was more potent than any of them. Like I said, your outdoor grows must have been shit. Is hydro quicker? Yes it is. Is it more potent than another method, no it is not.
