If mine wasn’t watered enough and it started turning brow...

1ft to light, indirect
7” pot
Last watered 1 year ago
I have 4 bonsais. I go by the schedule but check my soil daily. If dry, I give it a drink. Everything is good so far
Oh, Morgan. I'm so sorry. 😔 There is one way you can check to see if it's still alive. Take a sharp knife and carefully scratch the trunk near the base. If you see green, the plant is still good!!

But if you see brown, you have an available pot! 😉
@WiseLivingjewel is right: with bonsais, it's good to be ready to water them every day, twice a day if they are outside in the sun.

Their little pots or trays don't hold much water so you've gotta keep nature balanced. Bonsais are like a pet: they require a lot of attention, but they can be very rewarding.

I'm glad you found Greg!
