Hi a question about how regular I should fertilise my trees.
Some recommend everyweek and some say everytime they water them. (Liquid).
Now being a novice it seems to me that the little but often is better for the trees as they will get a small amount of fertiliser each watering and not just a big dose once a week.
You thoughts or your watering regime will be appreciated.
Many Thanks

I use Biogold, so every watering, but? I also use fish emulsion and seaweed extract so every week. It alo depends on what you want to achieve, if the plant is young you may want a lot of growth if it is an older refined tree then you may want less growth and so you will fertilise accordingly. I only use organic fertilisers, they are slower acting but safer I think. The best fertiliser is a balanced N.P.K., with trace elements.

I have been using Green Dream which is available from Kazian Bonsaiin the UK.
It seems really good and my trees are doing well on it.?
I am looking to get some growth grout younger trees.
I may only feed the more established trees every 2 to 3 dsys.
Will that be ok.
I am a complete novice and only been in to Bonsaithis year so all advice is greatly received

I use koi pond water every watering. It is high in basically all fertilizer componds. On top of that i give osmocote pro one or two times per season. In highly granular soil more often fertilizing with less streangth males sense. The gap between too little and too much is very wide. The most important is that one actually fertilize. Amount, frequency and brand can be changed according to your life puzzle.
