not sure what type. have posted a pic before but people were unsure on which type it was. i water it every two days when the top layer of soil is dry but the roots arent...i have a moisture measuring machine thing lol. it is in, as it has been for several months, good but not strong light. i inspected the roots when i bought it, the pot is still at a good size for the roots. it is in a free-draining, bonsai specific compost. it is on a gravel tray, so humidity remains constant. there are no bugs, thanfully. god help them if they come near my plants! lol. i havent used superthrive, but i have considered it! mixed reviews keep me contemplating...

i was just wondering if it is usual for a ficus to shed leaves as spring/summer progress to make way for newer growth and if i should just wait and see what happens! wit the leaves pretty much gone im gonna have to water it less frequently i guess!
