I know this is an old thread... I found a bottle of this in a cabinet. The carton was in Japanese with the word Futuro stamped on it. I wondered what it was (didn't check for instructions inside). That is how I found this thread. I can tell you (after reading the thread) that it was sold for thickening trunks or branches. I don't remember that it was suggested that you use small pinpricks - but that could be my failing memory (I didn't remember what it was for until now). I don't recall that I had any real results. I agree that damaging the cambium layer is probably as useful as any treatment - other than unrestrained growth in the ground.

There's a pic on the Misho Bonsai website. Here is a link that might be useful:

Hello. I'm new to bonsai and I have a 5 year old podocarpus tree that's suddenly struggling mightily. It was doing quite well with light green shoots a week ago and now they're all curled up and dark and the bigger leaves are turning a brown gray color. It's by a window that gets a good amount of sunlight and has a humidity tray with proper drainage. I've been watering daily to keep the soil moist. Any help is appreciated!
