Bonsai professional seedling

What is it? Growing bonsai from seed can be a very rewarding experience. Using a good seedling medium ensures that your seedlings get off to the best start possible.  Our Professional Seedling mix contains a mixture of Perlite, Coir and Peat Moss. Perlite is volcanic glass used to enhance aeration and drainage. It also retains moisture. Peat Moss is said to be a sterile medium and is harvested decayed plant material. Useful in this mix as it retains moisture and is very light. Coir is made from the husk of the coconut. Similar to Peat Moss in most respects however it is not as moisture retentive. How to use it Empty the contents of the bag into a suitable container with many drainage holes. Plant your seeds as directed and then water thoroughly. Place in a warm, sunny position although not in full sun, and keep slightly moist at all times. Damp sheets of newsprint paper are useful as a sort of mulch, covering the surface until the seeds germinate and can then be removed and discarded. Bag contents 30% Perlite 20% Peat Moss 50% Coir

What is it? Peat Moss is considered by some as the best organic growing medium for containerized plants known to mankind. Peat Moss is sterile, which is great when used in seedling mixes. However microbial life does thrive in it and it has the capacity to adsorb nutrients for future release. Despite its very light and open structure, it is water retentive but does not impede drainage in the root zone. How to use? Peat Moss may be used for indoor, balcony and container plants such as bonsai trees. Patented wetting agents within the Peat Moss, ensures quick absorption and distribution of irrigation water throughout the container. If using Peat Moss as an ingredient of a bonsai growing medium, ensure it is combined in a ratio of around 30/70 of Peat Moss to Leca for most trees. For species which prefer wetter roots or mature, highly developed bonsai where less vigorous growth is wanted, use higher ratios of Peat Moss for added moisture.

These plastic labels are most useful to identify bonsai trees, cuttings, seedling or yamadori bonsai trees. You can use a permanent marker to record species name, planting dates and other important information which may otherwise get lost. To use, record the required information on your label and push the label in the soil in the bonsai pot. The plastic spike makes insertion into the growing medium very easy.

All seeds used to grow bonsai would develop the same way as the full sized parent plant.

I have identified and selected from our indigenous flora, species most suited and easy to cultivate from seed. Our seed is supplied by leading seed specialists that regularly go on collecting trips and in this way ensure the seed is as fresh as possible.

Description For over a century, Japanese bonsai artists have used an organic fertilizer to provide the nutrients needed to keep their trees in perfect health year round. BonsaiBoost is locally produced from high quality, pure canola meal, the same ingredient still used in Japan today. BonsaiBoost should be used on any bonsai or potted plant, from collected stock through to exhibition trees and on flowering, fruiting or evergreen trees. Easy to use with no mixing required, BonsaiBoost sachets are laid on the surface around the bonsai and watered as normal. At each watering, a little of the nutrients in the sachet is carried to the roots. Sachets can be replaced every 2 months during the growing season. Features Time saver - every time you water you are fertilizing at the same time. Organic fertilizer which cannot burn your trees. Sustained, slow release of nutrients to your trees. Promotes healthy, strong growth. Easy to use and will not harm pets if accidentally ingested. The above claims are guaranteed. If you are not 100% satisfied we will refund you in full. Easy to use BonsaiBoost is packaged in high quality coffee filter bags to ensure water penetrates easily but without allowing the ground fertilizer to disappear into the soil mix. To use simply place the BonsaiBoost bag onto the soil and secure in place with wire or a toothpick. For shohin (small trees below 30cm) you should use about 1 bag. Medium sized trees can take 2 bags and larger trees as required. For maintenance of developed trees you will not need as much fertilizer as trees which are still being developed. Replace the bags roughly every 2 months. When you first start using them they will omit an odour. This odour diminishes with time till eventually no smell is experienced. The ground canola cake will become a solid lump, this is normal. While using BonsaiBoost little additional fertilizer is needed. For many years, Japanese bonsai professionals have been using exclusively these cakes to fertilize their trees. However for flowering plants you may want to use a fertilizer specifically aimed at promoting flowering. A seaweed extract may also be a good idea to use once in a while. BonsaiBoost is the ideal fertilizer when using open growing mediums such as our Professional Bonsai Growing Medium. 100% Biodegradable After using the bag for your preferred length of time don't simply throw it away. You can do the following: Make a small hole in your garden soil and bury the bag, it will completely degrade and add to the nutrients there too. Use it around your overpotted trees which are still undergoing development. Fertilize your field growing trees. Place into pot plant containers. How many trees can I feed? 20 Shohin trees for 2 months 10 Medium trees for 2 months 7 or 8 Large bonsai trees for 2 months Contents Macro elements: 53 N g/kg 12 P g/kg 14 K g/kg Micro elements: 7.9 Ca g/kg 0.62 Mg mg/kg 62 Mn mg/kg 195 Fe mg/kg 5 Cu mg/kg 58 Zn mg/kg 40 B mg/kg If you would like to add a slow release organic fertilizer to your growing mix when you repot, then you may wish to consider our Milled Seaweed.
