Earthquake proof my bonsai
Wow we got quite a jolt here. I was worried about my trees. I dont get much wind and we havn't had rain in 156 days and counting so the only thing I got to be careful of is earthquakes!!!
I hate earthquakes, any one else feel it??

Re: Earthquake proof my bonsai
Where is here?
You might want to relocate some of your trees. Put anything top-heavy on the ground and move anthing that might fall over on your trees. I have a couple of inches of gravel on the floor of my bonsai area and that has saved my bacon a couple of times from falling pots. Not earthquakes, but cats, wind, and who-knows-what.

Re: Earthquake proof my bonsai
Denny,
I thought taking care of cats was your partner's job? Wait! He hasn't moved in two months. .. Call the taxidermist!

Re: Earthquake proof my bonsai
cats are a big bumm, but then so were my old dogs at my moms house, and then again all animals. I used to have some very rare plants, hard to grow, hard to come buy, vbery expensive, names elude me at this time, one I had my mothers monkey came and ate it like it was no problem (this was pre-bonsai), So whenver the moneky was out, my door closed, then the dogs decided to come in and dig in the plants (alot had a 2 foot planter or bigger), and after spending moreein soil in one month then I had the whole time I had plants, I would shut the door when I was not home, or csleeping. Then came the cats, they whoule poo on plants, spray in the trees, it was terriblle, so I learned to keep the dorr closed unless I was going into the door. So yeah, I have had a few problems with animals.

Re: Earthquake proof my bonsai
ill be sure to keep my monkey in the barn,though ive never seen it eat anything.
now ya went and said it,the cats would spray your trees!i never thought of that,now it will probably happen. a great big tom thought this was his house when we first moved in,would spray the front door every few days.talk about rank smellin stuff. bye bye,im off to the barb wire store.
