Everyone seems to want to know how to really Bonsai a Mother plant for the long term....

I have Several new strains to make Mums from so I will take some Pic's along the way.
And try to put some words to it..... :wave:

We will do some Males for "Safe Keeping" in 3oz cups
Mothers of a ICMager's Seeds in 16oz bottles and 4" pots
Mothers of H3ad's Geishas in 16oz bottles and 4" Pots
All mothers will be UNDER 6"s tall
With 50-60 tops when we are done.
They will also have cuts taken from them along the way...They are Mothers after all

I am taggin' the first 4 posts in the thread so ALL the info will be up front.
And NOT get lost in 1,000 posts

Man, talk about timely! Just been to a couple of legit bonsai sites today because I am lining out my stealth PC mom/clone cab build. I'm in Perfesser, you lead and I will follow!

Namaste, mess

Mums...the only way to go...

Mums...the only way to go...

I recently had to kill off 6 of my bonsai's due to a change in location, but I will add that this is the only way to go to keep good strains around and for guaranteeing yourself females forever.

Here's some photos for your viewing pleasure!!!!

For the newbie's out there I will tell you that after taking the Dr.'s advice about a year ago on bonsai'ing I was successful without any issues. Even with a reveg mom, which is the plant I've posted here.
