Bonsai Mums?
I've found a thread on HG420.com talking all about Bonsai your Mum plants so they take up very little space.

Anyone on here have a Bonsai plant?

I'm going to do a few for sure...doesn't look real hard...pretty simple concept.



EDIT: IF YOU HAVE A BONSAI PLANT.....PLEASE POST PICS!!!

Correct!!!!
What's cool about this bonsai idea is that you can bonsai the mother plant from a clone of a good producer. The guy I'm referring to has all his bonsai mothers under 12" high and he keeps them in a 4" pot.

He says he can pull about 15-20 clones from it every couple of weeks and the clones he grows to full size.

It's a cool way of being able to have let's say 4 mothers in a 2'x2' square and very minimal height. Hell with flouros, you could put this setup in a 2x2x2 box really. I'm in the planning stages currently.

Oh yeah, and you have to do major LST on the bonsai to maintain shape.

I'm going to start a journal for the bonsai I'm going to do...so stay tuned.

I haven't done it yet, but loved the idea, which is why I started the post.

But anyhow, basically, you want to limit the plant to a 4" pot and when they are rootbound completely and you water them and the water just flows straight through, you need to take them out, trim the roots, put in fresh soil and put them right back into the same pot.

You will have to LST the branches to train it to stay short and you will also have to do frequent trimming...but I'm going to bonsai one of the plants I have going right now, so stay tuned...


ANYONE ELSE HAVE PICS OF BONSAI??

Everything you've ever wanted to know about bonsai moms... but were afraid to ask.
