Two weeks into my bonsai adventure and having a hard tome convincing myself I am adequately taking care of them.
1. Brushcherry - Wilting continues to get worse. I think I pruned too much root while repotting. Is there a chance this comes back to life? This is the one I’m most concerned about
2. Serissa - Every day or two there are a few yellow leaves that fall off. How concerning is this? Otherwise I think it looks pretty good.
3. Natal Plum - I think I may have pruned too much of the foliage. To my untrained eye it just doesn’t look super healthy.
4. Ficus b. Nina - Overall I think she looks pretty healthy.
5. Tiger Bark Ficus - This one has been rapidly growing. No concerns here.
All of these are under a grow light for 15 hours each day. I am watering when the top 1-1.5 inches of soil are dry. Watering is done in Tupperware from the bottom up with sink water. I mist them with a spray bottle 2-3 times per day. Indoor temp is steady at 68° and they are not near a heat source.
Any advice/suggestions/tips?
