Repotting is one of the most important tasks that we will ever do with our bonsai and planning (of course) is key to being successful. Before removing the tree and working the root system you need to know what you are going to do and why. Working then thinking is wrong. Think, plan, then work.

We are meticulous with our bonsai and their design, we spend so long getting even the smallest detail perfect and we should also do this with everything associated with good bonsai. As we commence the repotting season, well I do, it's time to be mindful of the quality and cleanliness of both the work area as well as the tools used in the process. We need to be safe and very importantly we must not have a situation where we transfer any nasties from one bonsai to the next. Also it's balancing only for strong trees? Don't you just leave weak trees alone? Balancing is task we perform continually on all of our bonsai.

Me included! I have just had this very thing happen on an old Scots Pine but this time I took action. Pine season is coming to a close for me and it's time for me to reflect on what I learned and what I have done slightly differently.
