I may not comment as much lately, but I'm still always here enjoying your fantastic videos that don't fail to bring a smile - I am grateful for the efforts you put in; after some recent trying times with work they kept me feeling part of a caring/ giving/generally frickin' awesome community x It's great to see the enjoyment in a shared hobby 🥰

🌟Thanks Kate! Great to know you are still around! You were one of my earliest supporters and I really appreciate it.🏅👏 My work was all consuming before… but now it’s just a job to me and I dream of bonsai instead of work pressures! 🐦💙

First of all, welcome Aaron! Amazing video! I have a juniper squamata non as nice as this one and this video was of great inspiration! On a funny side, good to see that Jay has graduated as bonsai Jedi and now has his own Palawan! Also nice to know he has the Blue Jay nest like Batman has the Bat Cave! We’ll done! I wish I could visit too!!!

Awesome job! What great help and giving back to newer members Jay! And the excitement in this carnage 🤣🤣 One thing I have learned also to think of: when doing young juniper initial styling- if your looking at a branch and thinking’I don’t want this branch, but it would be a good area for a jin’ - yet it’s way to immature to do so: let it be and grow, tie a little red ribbon on it as a visual reminder that ‘red=future dead’ 💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣

I like that idea. I have a bunch of red zip ties sitting around. I'll use those to mark future jin branches.

Thanks Jay and Aaron - I really enjoyed the journey. If you watch much of my stuff you know that I have a love/hate relationship with Junipers! I appreciate the shout out to my channel but I wish you hadn't followed up my $50 challenge with that brilliant raft style potentilla. It puts me to shame :)

"allegedly" lol Welcome to the hobby Aaron! Nice but a slightly awkward feeling seeing my plants showcased as they've got nothing on anyone else's bonsai yet! Going to thin out branches on the juniper when I'm more confident and possibly when it's grown a bit more. Still need to do research! Good job on Aaron's juniper today though, definitely taught me some things about branch selection and left and right pruning on them :) - Ashley Bonner

When you're pruning these on a side branch, left, right, left, right is great. On the main trunk line, remember to mix back branches in there. Left, back, right, left, back, right. Otherwise, when you try to fill in the back later by bending one of those side branches back, it'll interrupt your flow, perhaps in ways you won't want as the tree develops.
