Thanks for the response, I know this is a bonsai site lol but I have a lot of trees like this one that I don't really intend to use traditional bonsai methods on. It's more that I just like watching different species grow. I try to ad a few new species to my collection each year. This one in...

Is there anything I can do to help it survive? I had the pot burried in the ground all winter, should I put it back?

Hey guys! So I found this small White Oak in the woods last year. When I found it it had one set of leaves about 4-5 inches long. Now this spring it has finally sprouted 2 leaves but they look really small and don't seem to be growing. The other Oak trees around me all have full leaves now. Am I...

Thanks! I will tell him

He keeps them inside on a window sill but takes them outside sometimes for the day. Yes they are mites

Hello all. I'm posting this for a buddy of mine. He has a collection of indoor ficus and other such trees you get at Walmart lol. Well they are infested with bright orange mites. Can anybody give a good suggestion for something to use to "murder" them? Thanks!

Ok thanks! And yes they seemed to do good indoors but I'm sure they will be happy to see the sun!

Thanks for the info! I ended up sprouting them indoors under a light, I just put them outside yesterday.

How big of a pot do they need in the first year? I have them in Solo cups right now...

OK lol. Is now a good time?

Ok thanks man. I'm going to debate it while I watch the weather lol

I think that might be the plan lol!

Is now a good time to start one?

I thought so lol :/

Haha thanks. I plan on going out collecting real soon and probably getting another maple this year. I also started a bunch of seedlings I'm pretty excited about. About how long does an air layer take?

Somehow I made a double post :/ the other post has pictures lol. I'm not sure how to delete this one...

I really just wanted to do a trunk chop lol. I've never done one before.

I'm considering it now. I hate to look at another air layer all year though lol.
