Availability Of Ingredients
As much as possible, you should work with available ingredients for your bonsai soil.
Forget about those bonsai soil recipes that feature hard to find ingredients. There is re-
ally no point of wasting so much time and energy on your part to find the right ingredi-
ents for your bonsai soil. Besides, exotic ingredients can be expensive so if you do not
want to end up spending a lot of money on your bonsai soil, just stick to those bonsai
soil recipes that let you use whatever ingredients you have available. For instance, if you
choose to go organic, you can use your kitchen leftovers to make compost. Just put
your leftover food in a close container and let it stand for a few months. Once the organ-
ic matters have fully decomposed, you can use it as soil for your bonsai plants.
On the other hand, if you choose to use those inorganic bonsai soil recipes, check with
your local garden suppliers and see if they have the ingredients that you need. Better
yet, if your local garden supplier has some bonsai soil for sale, buy that soil and save
yourself from the trouble of making your own.
