[IBC] emergency spruce repot !
Hey folks....this week I nticed the needles on the upper third of this
collected spruce beginning to droop...we've had soooo much rain here lately , I was starting to worry about a few of my collection . Well my worries were cofirmed with this one...the soil just never seemed to dry out...though it was really free draining earlier in the spring. Sooo...this morning I pulled it...dumped all the old stuff out barely combed out the blackish roots with fingers only...still some whitish ones but not many : (... now its got new soil with nearly no organic at all...just coarse sand and fired clay...watered it in and am hoping for the best !...sound like the right thing to do ?...not that i can change it now !!!....keep misting foliage regularly ? ...as usual...thanks so much !!!...BobO...western Ma ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Mike Page ++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?
