Hello everyone!
My first post on the forum, I'm very new to bonsai so thanks for the help!
I recently purchased a juniper from a nursery that was not in excellent condition, but I thought it was better to practice and learn how to care this specie on a cheap plant.
Instead of cutting severely I just put it in full sun, cleaned it removing dead needles and removing very few branches to allow aeration and more uniform sun exposure.
But after a couple of months I'm starting to fear a fungal infestation.
Tips of previous years growth are getting yellow and falling little by little. I can see dry needles with black stains and a sort of powder on the little branches.
Do you have any recommandation?
Many many thanks.
