I recently saw a picture of a tree that was completely
jinned.NO bark was left
on the trunk at all.would this be safe for the tree?If not how
much can be
jinned?You can just e-mail me.
Thanks in advance.

If the tree had leaves/needles, the live bark must have been on
the backside. There HAS to be a "vein" (a bonsai, not a
scientific term) of live wood moving sap and water, etc. up and
down the tree.

An all-jin tree is a dead tree.
