the yellowing needles are from teh inside out. there are very few yellowing needles at teh tip. but my needles are very dry and brittle. and I water my bonsai every day, so the soil is very moist. I think I will let it dry up a bit, maybe it's too wet. even though I will prolly regret it, I'm going to ask the lady at the nursery what else I should do, maybe it has spider mites. something is wrong, I know I'm doing something wrong. maybe it's the water here...a bio professor of my friends said that there are minute traces of cyanide in teh drinking water here. is there any kind of water in particular that you might reccomend? maybe some synthetic plant foos might help. right now I'm using seaweed extract. anything you could advise me on would be wonderful. how about repotting? is it too late to do so? sorry to ask so many question, I'm in distress about my lil plant, it means a great deal to me. I just hope I haven't killed it already. thank you for your help
