hello,
i hope you can help me. i purchased a 2 yr old juniper bonsai and i live in cold Ohio. Summer is 70-90 degrees. my bonsai branches are turning brown. what does this mean
i have read conflicting articles on the care of this plant so i will tell you what i am doing now and i would appreciate your advice.
i have positioned the bonsai on a window ledge so it receives the direct rays of sunlight through the closed window and storm window in the daytime and interior lights and darkness at night. the room is average tempature 68 degrees. i am watering the soil every morning because the moss is just a little damp (probably within 12 hours of becoming dry). When should i fertalize and with what?? how do i know that he is healthy?? or sick??
please help!!
thank you for your time and advice
