This video includes a whiteboard tutorial for quick and simple repotting in Spring or early Summer.
I demonstrate quick repotting with two Japanese Maple deshojo trees, with brief appearances of a Trident Maple repotting, and a Ginkgo Biloba forest repotting.
This is not Slip Potting as seen in this video: https://youtu.be/xJFa-dsNO9I
It also shows the stone trick, one year later. Here is the stone trick video: https://youtu.be/ICsBu6nkWCk

Perfecto como de costumbre. Saludos desde Francia.
Eggcellent tutorial as usual Dave. Happy Easter. Thanks, keep growing
So beautiful trees. 👍
Finally new video !!!!
Nice animations!
That deshojo is always the star of the video and as always great info thank you !!
Very nice repot , looks amazing 😁👍
Mine where not really ready for a pot this year.
Didn't know what kind i wanted too.
So put the little one in the ground.
And the bigger one in a container with used akadama mix.
I did remove a stub beneath the underside of the trunk.
So it can hopefully work a little more on nebari and growth this year 😁
As we can expect from you, precise, practical and to the point. Thanks as always for your great videos. I actually did this kind of repotting this spring for the bulk of my trees, not knowing what to call it. Glad to know I was so smart!😀 I love the white board and I refer back to your videos a lot.
Brilliant video Dave! Them deshojos are looking great! Very informative video also! 😄Keep up the great work!!
Great video 👍👍 Love the visuals and the way you can explain so clear👌👌
Excellent video. Never stop using the whiteboard tutorials they are really good.😃👍
Nice job thank you for sharing it 🙏👌🥰👍
Great video- one for the bonsai tool kit for sure! Thanks so much for sharing suspect I'll need this knowledge sooner than later 😄
Trimakasih sudah berbagi
Nice technique. I just dug up a nice winged spindle out of my yard yesterday. Can't wait to start developing it.
Noice!
Another fantastic explanation and demo Dave 😊xx Do your maples ever suffer with aphid in the spring? Here in the UK I've got some the size of house cows!! Nasty! xx
Calm clear and informative.
One of my favourite Bonsai channels.

I honestly have to catch up on the videos, love the content! Haven't been in "bonsai mood" since last summer, of all things my favourite 2 trees didn't survive the 45°C / 113 °F heat. The other ones survived because I placed them in large tubs that were always filled with a little water, but these two were the only ones in comparatively flat bonsai pots (the others in tall nursery pots), so I was afraid they'd rot and left them out… well, they dried out even with daily watering and being in the shade 🙁
That and depression… but now that spring is here, seeing the other trees bud and bloom is a nice feeling.
Yet another very nice video, Dave! Thank you!
If I have to find an issue with your videos is that they don't get released not nearly as frequently as I would hope! 😉
That aside, brilliant! The whiteboard section is great (as always)!
Rather nice coincidence that you should also be digging in the dirt. I'm still very fond of the worlds happiest rock. I also took the time this week to repot my peach. Got all the way into the root ball for the first time since nearly slip potting it from a nursery pot to a resin barrel. Started combing and picking my way to the middle, found an additional chunk of trunk almost comparable to my fist once I cut away some of the higher root plane. Found my way almost to the middle of the bottom before realizing that I might have found a piece of treasure. Big old fist like bole with several strange growths like a dozen spheres coming together. Combed most of the roots and repotted back in the same pot, same soil, and same charcoal drain layer from the first potting. Buried it deep under a thick layer of pea shingle to keep the soil from blowing away and gave it a deep watering and time in the shade. What was once a very straight tree has become an increasingly crooked and more interesting specimen. Naturally since peach will never be a good bonsai, I have gone with the length of my arm as its over all height before canopy.
The best concise and informative videos out there. Best bang for the buck you'll get on bonsai youtube.
Great video Dave. I always enjoy them.
Great video Dave! I love all the tips and tricks you share. Thanks!
The best, concise videos out there! Great to see you, and the gorgeous maples again, Dave. Happy Easter 💚
Superb 👌👌👌
Lazy man’s repot… ie you’re speaking my language! Cheers bro, hope all is well.
A literal 15 second repot, amazing! 😉
As always, diggin the whiteboard work. This technique seems more in line with advanced trees and slowing down the growth. Most of my trees aren’t there yet. (Plus, I love whacking all those roots off each year)
Don’t be a stranger Dave, keep them coming🍺
Pohon maple yang sangat bagus cantik, senang bisa melihat video anda, di tempat saya gk ada pohon maple
Aussie Dave here David, well it's 4:50 am here in Queensland Australia. And I am excited to see you posted another tremendous video 😊. I'm always happy to see your insightful videos, please keep them coming 😊
Dave valió la pena el esfuerzo 💪🏼. Me gustan las imágenes, los colores, lo educativo que resulta y gracias a los subtítulos se puede entender cuando usas palabras más técnicas. Un éxito más 😊 Enhorabuena.
Wonderful, wonderful teacher👍💓 Thank you kindly for white boards, your expertise, you keep us all highly interested in this beautiful hobby
Hello good sir good to see you.
