Repotting a Shindeshojo Japanese Maple out of it's nursery soil

I bought this Acer palmatum 'Shindeshojo' in full leaf last year, and so it was too late to do such drastic root work. The nursery soil was a fairly decent mix, but as it is an organic mix with bits of bark, etc... it would slowly compact and suffocate the tree over time. An organic mix allows for more oxygen to get to roots, and will provide for much better drainage in the long term.

My channel is mostly Bonsai related, but I make no promises.
I like to make videos about air-layering, wiring for bonsai, pruning, growing seeds, and well... anything I find interesting.

I am documenting my bonsai progress on YouTube to share what I am up to with my friends and family, to document the progress of the trees so I can look back at them over the years, and maybe show others that bonsai is something that anyone can get started with since really all you need is a tree (or a seed!) and some patience.

I've always grown trees in pots; ever since I was a little kid growing apple seeds in elementary school. I think bonsai is a great way to keep interesting species at home without having a lot of space. One of my favorite families of trees are maples, but I'm getting into all sorts of other trees as well. Fruit trees and flowering trees are also super interesting to me, and if it has seeds, I want to try and grow it!
