I am hardly an expert as leatherback said, its just the way i say things. I did not mean to make fun of you in any way, and that is something i know for sure. It is just the way i say it, on the internet-on text, it is almost impossible to tell how people say things. I am sorry if you may have took it the wrong way- it is my fault if you did.

Hello friends,
I have a question about potting:
Suppose that I bought a young tree from nursery stock and I brought it home. Should I repot it to the bonsai pots or ordinary pot to grow it?

You don't put it in a bonsai pot. You only do that with trees that have at least developed a basic shape and a good trunk and don't need lots of growth anymore. Putting trees in bonsai pots does not make them bonsai.

Also, please create your own topics, rather than adding your question to someone else's topic.
