And I don't. :-) You can Google for his website, then ask him. What about commercially available organic fert cakes? Something I can pick up locally. Can you explain why you want to use cakes? All they really seem to do is get fuzzy, then turn black and ugly on top of your soil -- which you then have to clean off before the next show, or winter, whatever comes first. And you have NO control over the rate of application to the tree at any one time. If you want to do organic, that's probably laudable, but liquid fish emulsion/seaweed fertilizers get the food to the tree a tad sooner. Remember though, they have very few micronutrients. If you simply want to feed your tree, one of the balanced garden shop fertilizers (Peters, Miracle Grow, etc.) give them the NPK-plus that they need. And that's all they want. Check our archives (available via the URL below). I've gone though this in excruciating detail in the last couple of weeks.

Yes. You'll find it in his new book, Pines, on page 36.

If you grow pines for bonsai the book is a worthwhile investment.

It's a money issue not a value issue. I've got a lot of value from his
articles and posts over the years and appreciate his contributions to the bonsai community  Best, John "Kitsune Miko" wrote in message o.com...
