I’m looking for some guidance on watering after repotting, as the title says. I’ve repotted a number of trees over the last couple of months, mostly into pond baskets with a pumice mix for some growing. A few went right into bonsai pot. All of them were nursery stock, and coming out of the typical soils you would expect. With some of the bigger ones I’m running into a dilemma. The pumice mix is dry, but the root ball is still damp/wet. These are all conifers (pines and yews), with some original soil left on. Should I be watering based on the condition of the root ball? Or the pumice mix?
