Re: Wooden growing boxes improve bonsai rootage ne

I had this question, recently:

Quote:
What is the point of the screen and how bit is it?




The screen keeps the soil from falling through the openings between the slats in the bottom of the box. It's big enough to cover the bottom of the growing box, or about twice as wide as the drainage holes on a bonsai pot, and the spacing is somewhere between 1/16 and 1/8. It's available on the TreeBay Bonsai Tools & Supplies site here:

Shop Drainage Screen

The bulk screen is good for growing boxes. If you want to learn to secure the screen in a bonsai pot, check here:

Securing Drainage Screen For growing boxes, we just staple it down with a staple gun.

Regards,

Matt
