Posted 4 years 10 months ago #56621Yes all the tree's you mention, needs to be outside, and need a winter period for dormancy. (Put them outside in spring, let them adjust to the sun,every day an hour more ,starting with only morning sun, to full sun, takes about 2 weeks)welshbonsai wrote: Is this the same for my acer and oak trees?
You plant is still small, if you want a bigger bonsai i would put it in the ground for a few years, or a bigger pot.
Or if you want a smaller bonsai, you could give it a wireing and make it a bit more intresting to look at. And that won't take 15-20 years.
With only 3tree's you might want to start a few other projects, so you keep practicing.

I - and many others - have said it countless times on this forum. Actually, I think it is said on the forum at least once a day: trees belong outdoors.

Posted 4 years 10 months ago #56624They're currently in pots. I want to get them used to being outside for a while before I plant them. I haven't started with the fertiliser yet, I plan on starting in a month's time.

Posted 4 years 10 months ago #56634If you are serious about growing bonsai. Get yourself more mature trees to start practising on. Seedlings dont give you any practice in the art of bonsai f?r many years.

I'm pretty sure all those heathy trees you can see outdoor don't mind much about your weather...
