Going on a similiar note, what would you all recommend as a fertilizer? I only have the one bonsai, a J. Procumbens.

BTW, a cubit is about 18".

Bart:
I can't see where increasing the frequency will help....
After all the
rain is still going to wash most of the fertilizer away.... I would
just feed when we have a few days without rain (supposedly this coming
week... )

I would look at your trees carefully, when it is not raining, and just
see if they are suffering from lack of food... watch those
leaves...!!

On the other hand has anyone started building an ark??? I hesitated,
since I still don't know how to translate a cubit into inches!! :-D

From: "Carl L Rosner" I am in the same boat as you.... When there is a
day without rain, I


just go out and fertilize my usual... Like today we will have rain this
afternoon, so I wont fertilize until Monday when there is no rain in
sight for 24 hours..... I don't think increasing the amount of
fertilizer would do any good..... there might be harm, though!




Hi, Carl:

I was thinking of increasing frequency, rather than amount.
