Also does anyone have extra bonsai tools they are looking to get rid of?

So I ended up moving the juniper outside in hopes that the colder temps, not freezing, humidity, sufficient rain, and increase of natural light will help my odds of keeping my baby alive, figured more native/natural climate would give better odds. I plan on bringing the plant in if the...

there is slight discoloration but its not just in the tips it seems to be the entire "frond" of scales

no there is no browning, i think it is the inside, there are parts near the trunk that are completely britle, not brown just fragile and break off with slight pressure.

also if i did put it outside would there be anything i could do to protect the plat and its roots from it being overly cold? like covering the soil with say moss or a piece or two of burlap?

@sorce or do you think i should bag the grow lamp and put the plant outside where it should be? its warmed up a little bit, its only down in the lower 40s at night now, tonihts low is 41, is this too cold for it this soon after being replanted? Its also raining slightly like always in western...

@sorce So i have a question regarding my juniper, what are some signs i should be looking for that indicate my plant is dying? I know since it is evergreen it will take a while to show signs of death but what are they? there are parts of my plant where the scales are starting to dry up and break...

so i decided that i only have like one or two questions regarding the jade because its young, not ready for any styling. but how do i promote trunk thickening?

so i just got my grow light, what kind of schedule should i start?

By the way my bonsai is not a " mallsai" as you think it is, it was purchased from a nursery not a vendor. What makes you think it's such a lost cause? I'm curious as why you think it's in such horrible shape.

So I just purchased a small grow light that I was planning on using for my bonsai while indoors, do you recommend leaving it in the windowsill with the light on it or put it in a desk and situate the light over it so the light doesn't just go out the window? Also how long does it normally take...

I thought of doing that however, it's hard to see in the pictures, but there is a massive bend right above my trunk about 2-3" that I feel would harm the tree if I try to wire it to vigorously which may be needed to get the informal upright. A little mental picture painting for you... If you...

If I put it in my garage to keep it cooler for the remainder of the winter will my plant suffer from lack of light, my garage isn't the best place for sunlight?

Thank you so much, all this info is extremely helpful and very much appreciated. do you know of any links to pages regarding my species and the certain details about them you could share? Thanks again, MAbro515
