Five-needle pine bonsai maintenance is three fears and four essentials.

Three fears

I'm afraid of getting fat. The requirement of five-needle pine is to apply thin fertilizer and apply thin liquid fertilizer only once a year from August to October. If the growth is exuberant in spring, you can apply less, and you can't apply fertilizer at ordinary times. Novice pine breeders often disrelish that it grows slowly and want to fertilize more to make it grow faster, which is counterproductive.

Second, I am afraid of stagnant water in the basin. If too much watering, the ventilation in the basin will be blocked, resulting in root rot and withered branches and leaves. As the saying goes, "dry pine and wet cypress" is the reason.

Third, I am afraid to change the basin frequently. Potted plants only need to change pots every 3 to 4 years, and the time should be from late September to early October, or from February to March. However, some pine breeders choose pots for modeling, but change pots indiscriminately at the wrong time, resulting in death because of changing pots too often.

Four essentials

First, if you want to see more sunshine, you'd better put it in a sunny ventilated place. when the air is dry, you can spray water on the leaves twice in the morning and evening.

Second, pruning should be carried out during the dormant period to prevent the loss of too much sap and damage its vitality.

Third, keep it in a ventilated, sunny, warm, moist, smoke-free room in winter.

Fourth, regular observation should be made to prevent and control diseases and insect pests in time.
