Hey Andrew,

IMO what's missing is better context for articles/books.
Authors have
significantly different philosophy's/culture. There's a pretty
radical
difference between container culture vs soil culture (in the
ground).

Yes and no. Plants grow as plants grow.

Further authors subscribe to various philosophies... ancient
bonsai purest,
new age bonsai experimentalist, horticulturally educated bonsai
enthusiast,
hortoculturally educated bonsai nurseryman, seed not speed, and
so on, and
so on. Wish there was a real list of these categories

I have a Deborah Koreshofs(sp?) book... good book...

Correction: Excellent book, but still not written for bonsai in
YOUR neighborhood, YOUR climate, YOUR water, with Miracle Grow
(or whatever) fertilizer.

people would remember to snip all the unnecessary OLD stuff from
messages.
