Five easy steps to make palm bonsai



Step One:
Coconuts are used for Bonsai:
Kelapa Gading Milk
Ivory white coconut milk this kind of hybrid coconut grown in many subtropical regions, but is usually used as a park as a substitute for coconut palm trees.
Kelapa Gading Red
Kelapa Gading is also a hybrid coconut red with the color red, yellowish oil is very unique and beautiful to be made but the process of processing coconut bonsai must use lots of fertilizer and other plant vitamins, because the red ivory palm vulnerable will lose (Kambium) leaf chlorophyll, so if lack of planting materials, hence the red ivory palm trunks will change color to green, and red substances will be lost, so the thing to do is change the media, soil, fertilizer, and other vitamin.
Albino Coconut (White Silver color)
This is the same type of coconut palm above two examples, but many of the palm bonsai hobys change in order to have white, silver rod to make it look unique or albino (to transform it into an albino would I explain in the next chapter).
Step Two
Looking for good seed
Find old coconut seedlings will be better if the coconuts plucked straight from the tree, because seedlings sprout grows older faster, but if the seeds have fallen to the ground will menghasilkan form less attractive and easy kentosnya fragile due this fall, would be perfect if palm bonsai has to be made kentos (shell) is very small and has a large root, because when viewed from a small kentos will make it easier to form the stem according to what we want.
Third Step
Palm Position
Coconut which does not yet have buds should be placed in moist soil and contain lots of water, about 1-2 weeks is usually the coconut is grown shoots. If you want a form which surrounded the root kentos should place the coconut in a standing position (vertical) but if you want a shape like a snail then place the sleeping position (horizontal), shape position based on imjinasi your palm.
Step Four
Planting Process
open a coconut fibers that have been sprouting (height 3-5 cm) using the tip of a spoon or small knife slowly and carefully so as not about the roots and do not get disconnected. Clean the small fibers are still attached to kentos using a thin knife (Cutter) make it look clean, if you want kentos looks slick, shiny brownish kentos using lighter fuel is slowly / lukewarm nails. (This process is a bit risky and should be done with caution). Sayat slowly (strands 2-3 buds) buds of the most under / which is old by using a thin knife (Cutter), after it was planted in a pot that has been provided. If you want to palm shoots grow faster cap shoot better with a bottle of mineral water that has been cut in the mouth of the bottle as high as 5 cm. This process is also to avoid the shoots of mealybug pests in the bud.
Step Five
Penyayatan process.
If the oil has been growing 15-20 cm tall, sprout sayat bottom to form a rod to do this is repeated at least three days, in the process panyayatan do with being careful not to graze the new shoots that will grow, if it happens then the bonsai will have decay (fail and die). This process is done forever to grow bonsai did not form a regular coconut. Siramlah plants once a day in the afternoon or evening, it helps flush water by using MSG or salt solution.Good luck,.!!
