I have seen and been and read all the links provided and do remember all that was stated.
The submerging wasnt meant as in watering but just to give and idea of how poor the soil was and to give and idea how bad the tree was taken care of. (Bowing in respect and saying sorry for my poor explanation)
Misunderstood ~ Yes because the
only info I have to go on is what you state - Not what you
mean. Understand that using the submersion demonstrates primarily bad care not bad soil when the intent is far from clear.
I am glad you have been reading and stand up straight, Mr Miyagi is NOT in the room.
The question was for advice from you guys as in what type (not brand or anything) of soil would be your thought.
I am not trying to be dense here but...What do you mean by 'type'? Proper bonsai soil.
The standard info linked wasnt enough for this case.
Straightforward questions please - I will do my best.
ANyway long story short not to cause any further upset, I'll go get a lamp and do some night reading and compare the links and some books.
Look, When you don't appear to have read it - I treat you as though you have not read it [But should have].
It is not an upsetting drama and the bold is for emphasis, It is that simple.
