Thanks dude! Yea I just trimmed her and took off a lot of the leaves, and then gave it a neem spray since one of my flowering plants (only one flowering atm) has thrips and leafhoppers -_____- it looks fine and isnt dying but i cant spray it since its a month into flowering, so i ust preventatvie sprayed everythign else. and willonce a week for a couple months prob

It's a fun project for sure. This particular bonsai would look awesome if flowered, but it would be a shame since it's been cloned already. Just gonna flower on of the clones in a couple months. got some more topping to do still lol

She looks beautiful.
What are the specifics of cannatonic? High CBD? Or is it fun-time weed? Either way. that is a good looking girl. No smell issues with her out and about?

That is pretty cool, man. I've always wanted to do some crazy stuff with LST. Like a crzy side winder with a staircase of some sort. It is usually the mothers that I get to practice on. Good shit, Dude

Hey thanks dude!
It's supposed to have a few phenos with 1:1 cbd:thc, and high cbd low thc as one. IDK if any have high thc. Have some clones off this bonsai rooted up and being trained for flowering in a couple months.

Thanks man! LST is definitely fun to mess around with. Very interesting stuff and pretty quick results with cannabis plants once you have them well rooted and established.

That looks awesome, Good Job!
I tried to make a bonsai before, but I failed. I think I may have cut too much root off.

Can you elaborate on exactly how you do your root trimmings?
What type of soil you are using?
What percentage of the root ball do you remove? Just the bottom, or the sides as well?
Do you add anything specific to help the plant recover from taking roots from it?
Perhaps explain your process for us, and take photos the next time you do this.
Thanks.

Beautiful! I've always wanted to do this to keep a mother for cloning…congrats on a stunning job! +rep!

Hey, I'll do that on the next one I make

Wish I would've taken a picture of this plant uprooted the last time. A lot of roots (the thin ones) got ripped out, but when I repotted it, I just watered it really well so it would be as anchored in as possible and also not dry out and cause more stress, and then used two wires to hold it in position for a couple days and now it is firmly rooted in this bucket and growing under the v400 vipar led. Ill try to remember to post new pics of her tomorrow lol

Thanks! Appreciate it man It's definitely rewarding because the odler it gets the more it looks like a real tree so it just gets better and better while providing clones if needed

Agreed, I would like to see a little bit of the trimming process. Cool Project man. And Functional. How many clones do you take at a time?

Hope you don't mind me posting a link but it was a quick tutorial I found:
How to make a Bonsai Tree

I sense a friendly Bonsai contest in the near future. I have a bunch of cuttings I took so one of them is going to be turned into a bonsai. Cool thread man!

I have read about the process of making bonsai trees before, that is the reason I attempted it for Marijuana.
However, I found that there is a big difference in your average household plant, and pot.
I believe I may have taken off too much roots, or maybe trimmed too much of the plant in addition.
Perhaps my downfall was soil moisture level when the unpotting, and trimming took place.
I am not sure exactly what I did wrong to kill my plant, but since I did, I never tried it again.

I subscribed to this thread, and give OP a rep+
No hurry in the tutorial of this advanced form of training, but looking forward to seeing it.

random bump to keep this thread alive.

A little late to the party but,nice work!! Always wondered about doing what your doing.
my friend planted a grapefruit seed 20 years ago(I think)and has kept it about the same size! Awesome roots showing and it makes tiny fruit..

Well interested in this kind of Grow in-fact often check out GB's Thread to see how His Shakira is doing(and she Looking Lovely, bit bare at the moment...because of a Trim)...really want to Try this but got too many issues with Damn GR @the min..But IF you into Training and such have a Butchers @ GB's thread.

Shakira's last major trimming. - and her new bike...(her little sister gets the one with training wheels) <shedding a tear - she was getting SO bushy> She will bounce back quickly. I am still kind of surprised at the growth that occurs every day now.
