Bonsai trees must be pruned to fix the shape of the extended branches and let sunlight into the tree.
Generally speaking, the pointed buds of bonsai trees grow fast, but the lower buds of bonsai trees do not grow as fast.
For this reason, when you cut off the shoot tips of a bonsai tree, the lower shoots will grow faster. New shoots will then grow, improving the balance of the bonsai tree.
If you don't prune like this, the shape of your bonsai tree will be disturbed later on.
This pruning method increases the number of new shoots and increases the nutrition of the bonsai tree.
This pruning also increases sunlight nutrients and improves ventilation. Pruning also helps protect the bonsai from
insect.
Transplanting bonsai is very important to prevent root tangles and death.
Transplanting is a method of providing nutrients for bonsai trees to germinate and bloom and to help bonsai grow.
Transplanting time varies by bonsai pot and bonsai age.
Due to the rapid growth, young bonsai needs to be transplanted after 1 to 2 years.
After the bonsai matures, it needs to be transplanted after 3 to 5 years.
The best season for transplanting bonsai is spring, as the buds do not grow.
No need to protect the shoots in spring, with minimal damage when transplanting. if the root is
damaged, they heal quickly.
