Japanese Maple in regualer soil

Ronny

i have a japanese maple that i have had for over a year now. It is in a 7 inch training pot, and in regular potting soil. I think the soil is staying too wet, and was going to pot it in bonsai soil, but i was wondering if it would be ok to do that now. I am not going to do any root pruning or anything like that just repot it in bonsai soil. I live in south carolina and it is very warm here right now so any advice before i do this??

Repotter

You can slip it out of the pot its in and put it into another pot with bonsai soil and feel safe about it.
Set it in the shade for a couple of weeks, watch the watering to be sure it doesn't go dry.

Then get it into the normal amount of sun, usually morning sun is best for 3 to 4 hours.
