Question by Jen D: How do we take caring of my ficus indoor bonsai?
I’d similar to to know when we need to H2O it as well as shear it as well as how prolonged it might live? Oh as well as we pruned the root off as well as the white piece came out, what is that?

Best answer:

Answer by Cactusflinthead
The vital tying cause upon ficus is light. Miracle-gro, Peter’s or the little alternative manure is fine. Pick the sunniest window in your residence as well as put it IN the window. Not upon the list upon the alternative side of the room. If it is the bonsai, afterwards we will be perplexing to keep it in the elite figure as well as will be pleat it regularly. That white things is the sap. Guess what, it turns black upon your garments as well as hands so be forewarned when it comes time to trim it. If we have been saying the consistent root drop, quite from the interior of the plant, though we have been gripping it uniformly moist, afterwards it is substantially light. Ficus have been scandalous for dropping leaves. More mostly than not it is since their latest home has reduction apportion as well as power of light. If the light is not clever sufficient or next to to the light it grew under, it will dump leaves. Period. Essentially the light cannot dig distant sufficient in to the root to turn upon the tools of the cells which essentially have carbohydrates/food. So it kicks which root off after receiving the nitrogen as well as afterwards regrows the latest root which is skinny sufficient for the light to be effective. Shade root vs. object leaf. There have been the lot of growers who take this in to comment as well as will grow ficus underneath shade fine cloth to grow leaves which will be some-more upon standard with the light which is accessible in the normal home window.

Posted by Bonsai Care on Mar 19, 2011

Question by gorilla face: how many watts should my indoor bonsai get?
I got a Serissa, as well as Brush Cherry bonsai, i additionally paid for a 17watt light from Home Depot for indoor plants. Is it enough for both plants, we leave it upon from 6am til 6pm(is it Okay). And is it fine to give it H2O each day, as well as i give it glass manure each week. And how will i know when to shear a leaves as well as roots, as well as when should i shift a soil.Both have been about 8-12 in tall.

Best answer:

Answer by Carlie S
I’m not certain about a wattage, though many indoor bonsais need splendid light though not approach object light. As for a watering, it needs soppy compost all a time, though not wet, we do not wish a roots to turn waterlogged. Moist air is additionally vital, we might wish to get a obscurity bottle full of H2O (if we do not already have one) as well as obscurity them daily. Feeding them each 2-6 weeks is sufficient, though if they’re you do OK with a weekly stuff oneself I’d hang with it.
It’s most appropriate to shear them each 2 years in a open by stealing a little of a aged compost as well as 1 third of a roots.

You can try it in a single go though a risk of disaster is higher.
