Fertilizing question

Actually fermented oilseed meal is around 7 to 6 N
and it may be that in combination with an inorganic
soil is another attempt to slow down the tree's out
growing the design.

Probably why the Cambridge book on Biology for
O'levels calls Bonsai cruel.

12 N with our light intensity keeps the plant healthy
with slow growth.
Might encourage sappy growth in weaker light ?

But as I said before, fertiliser is probably not needed for
a month or two with a soil having an organic component.
Texas University has compost feeding the microbes for
4 years.

It would be interesting if there were a test that could be done
say every 10 years, as to the plant's health.
Yes, I know the written stuff says Bonsai out live the wild cousins.
But as this practice / hobby becomes more scientific - curiosity.
Good Day
