Trident Maple Bonsai Spring Care (Repotting, Pruning, Wound Closing)

Early spring is the time for repotting and pre-growing season maintenance of bonsai. This big trident maple has one of the shallowest rootballs and it on track to become a nice bonsai. We will explore the process of repotting with significant root reduction (Did you know how many roots to prune when repotting maple bonsai? ) and subsequent pruning of the maple bonsai branches. I check upon an airlayer on the sacrifice branch and finally work on very big cuts and how to heal these big cuts on a trident maple bonsai. During repotting I am using the cool roothook by @bobcatbonsai as shown in https://youtu.be/3S2OcrnXXpk .
