Posts: 13	Quick Question I bought a Fukien Tea pre-bonsai at the nearby specialty gardening store and when I bought it, the leaves not in bad shape but still mostly green, then I forgot to water it like...maybe 2 days..possibly 3, all the leaves started falling off completely, its been bare for the last month, and I was wondering if I was doing something wrong...I check the moisture level on the plant, is this a reaction to "fall"? I water it carefully, maybe it got too much sun? anyhelp appreciated..

You can not forget to water. IF it is still alive (IF) you need to water it when it needs it. Check the soil daily, if it is wet- no water... if it is just starting to dry water it. Keep it in one place and keep an eye on it. If it has glued on rocks on the surface of the soil, remove them. If it has already died, you can not do anything wrong. If it is just resting you MAY bring it back! In the future make sure you water it correctly... overwatering is also BAD!!! No leaves for a month..not good! Good luck.. and keep us posted. __________________ A Bonsai student living with his trees at N 44.37 W 77.49... Think before you act... then think again... no good comes from rushing
