Hello,
I didn't know in what section to ask this question... hope its OK.
I live in Israel which is a very sunny country all year round. having said that my apartment is facing north and the balcony I use, to grow the trees I have, get no direct sun during winter.
in transition seasons and during the summer I get 1-4 hours of direct sunlight in the morning and evening. the temperatures here don't get even close to 0 so heating is not an issue.
because I am relatively new to Bonsai and don't have enough experience with these conditions I was wondering if artificial light is needed.
my questions are:
1. Should I use artificial light? and if yes are there specific rules about it?
2. Dose any one have any recommendation on the type of lamps I should use?
Thank you!
Shay
