Check out the link in my signature too see my current bonsai mum.
The first steps you need to cover is:
1.- Find a good clone to be your mum
2.- Grow it till it has 3-5 nodes and top it
3.- LST, Pinch, Top, FIM that bitch like you never have before
After a month or so of being rooted, she should be able to birth cuttings for you.
I will cover everything I do to my mum in my thread, and will be happy to answer any specific questions you may have.
P.S.- Also remember, the thing with bonsai is you have to let it go root bound for it to stay small, during this time clones are nearly impossible to root. Bonsai's can be left for months without giving their roots a trim, but they will eventually die. A quick trim of the roots, repotted into the same pot with new soil is when your bonsai begins growing at alarming rates again. You just want too keep topping and FIMing, and tieing during the plants whole life. Bonsai is an art, you can really make the plant look however you want, be as short as you want.... Endless possibilities. |
