I did a title search but didn't see this mentioned. I think it's been brought up a number of times in other threads, but I wanted to start one for Bonsai Q in particular.
These videos have subtitles, which is a great leg up on some of the other Japanese bonsai channels.
I just wanted to put a plug in - this has quickly become my favorite bonsai channel. I really like Bjorn too, but these folks really get into some of the nuts and bolts of bonsai growing, with a wide range of material in terms of species and age and focused on the true creation of a bonsai from scratch vs. working with older material or pushing already-developed material along. It feels like there are fundamentals here that are easy to miss elsewhere, and gives me a lot of hope that the sticks in pots I have are actually working towards something vs. the trap folks fall into where they end up with 100s of sticks they eventually get bored with.
Plus, with the bean bonsai they play with, it shows how sticks can become more than sticks fairly quickly. The pine work is fascinating to me in particular.
I posted this one in another thread I just made, but wanted to offer it up here as an example of what I'm talking about:
Would love to see which videos other folks who are enamored by them really enjoy. I could list a lot, but the above at least gets us started.
