Hello I'm new here, I have been looking for answers on how to help my bonsai.
It's a ficus ginseng (I believe, it was a gift and I can't remember exactly if it was this) and I have him for almost a year now, until now I had no big problems but a week ago my plant began losing more and more leaves (they first turn yellow than fall).
I haven't moved him from his spot (not in direct sunlight but he gets plenty of light) nor have I changed his watering schedule (usually once a week once the soil is dry and with bottle water not tap water). I was told this could be from a lack of humidity so I started spraying his leaves with water (again, with bottle water and not tap water) once a day.
Another thing I was told is that it could be from the lower two branches that sprouted, I think they could be suckers? But I haven't removed because I wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do...
His trunk also started listing more and more to the side so i staked him against (I did this today after a lot of unsuccessful research and panicking) what I had on hand.
Here are some pictures (but I'm not sure if the files can be opened sorry-)
