We can get swept away by our thoughts,,or learn to step back and see them with clarity.
Easy to forget its a choice

Re: Monkey Glue Bonsia
Well I’ve gone ahead and potted her onto the amethyst, first I slow and easy raked the coco peat mix away from the roots , I then placed a water bottle section around the gem , placed roots over and around the gem then covered with medium , I’ll give her a good bit to establish roots and increase in size , also during this time we will start training her down , other then air roots over rock I haven’t decided on bonsai style I’m going with ,, to be decided

Re: Monkey Glue Bonsia
Fair play @Wizard, I've seen these before and it's a thing of beauty once established. I'm sure you will get it just how you want it.

Re: Monkey Glue Bonsia
@Wizard I have never even heard of this before.
You have my attention now for sure.
So I'm guessing but the crystal will give off minerals to the roots?
About how big of a piece of crystal did you wrap the roots around?

Re: Monkey Glue Bonsia
Well some believe that crystals give off energy, I used it for the pure beauty, I’ve seen plenty grown over normal rocks but haven’t seen one done on a crystal ,
Seeing new roots growing , I’ll give her another week or so before I remove sleeve and wash away the medium,
Back with pictures later today
