I am definitely subscribing to this thread. I would like to know the mechanics of training your plant to do this. I want to try it out sometime when I set up a dwc for a single plant, it may be daunting but makes for an interesting challenge

You could produce the same effect by :
Removing the Top of the plant (toping), twice in this case.
followed by low stress training the new growth tips horizontal.

**Think of a capital " Y " progressing into a " T " **


The most stress the plant goes through is the removal of half the nodes on one side.
Which is why chances of seeing a non hermi are slim to none.

I am sure there are other methods, maybe even some less traumatizing.

sorry to burst your bubble m8 but this aint a bonsai its just a trained plant theres no difference from my single plant bubbler grows except i dont stress em to the point of hermying. bonsai is only really useful for keeping your mums small, it involves topping training and most importantly trimming and controlling root growth to keep the plant small healthy and with the maximum amount of growing shoots to take for cuts.

dude i know what its actually doing,this is the same technique used to grow a japanese maple

n., pl. bonsai.
  1. The art of growing dwarfed, ornamentally shaped trees or shrubs in small shallow pots or trays.
  2. A tree or shrub grown by this method.
[Japanese, potted plant : bon, basin (from Middle Chinese bən) + sai, to plant (from Middle Chinese tsəj, tsaj).]

pot sizes dont matter either,u can have a large pot and grow a medium size bonsai

lol you cant qoute a dictionary to back your shit up sayin that the definition is a dwarfed plant grown in a shallow pot/tray then say it doesnt matter that its bigger and in a bigger pot that doesnt make sense. bonsai is an art form, the art being minature trees. i've been growing weed for ten years and i can tell you now that you have either got your wires crossed or been given some bad info, this is no more a bonsai than my dwc plant is. not knocking your skills mate cos that is a beautifully trained plant but its not a bonsai. training does take time in veg make sure your leaving two weeks at least after the last stress to the start of 12/12 might reduce your seeds.
ripz:peace:
