Miniature bonsai bought online die as soon as you care for them? One trick to solve it

More and more people like bonsai nowadays, especially miniature bonsai. But miniature bonsai bought online have the following problems. For example, the environment

Light and ventilation are essential conditions for caring for miniature bonsai. After buying one online, first leave it to sit for a period of time. A balcony, a windowsill and so on are all good places to put it. Find a large box and fill it with sand that has been soaked with water. Then place the miniature bonsai in it; this keeps moisture very well. Depending on the season, when the temperature and light are strong, shade it appropriately. For miniature bonsai, the thing they fear most is the plant becoming dehydrated and drying out to death. So after buying one, keeping it moist is a key point.

So what methods can be used to keep it moist? Each time you water, water it thoroughly. You can put the plant in a basin to soak, but do not soak it too long. You can also find a small basin, fill it with water, make sure the water does not go over the rim of the basin, then put the bonsai into the water and use the siphon principle to let the water slowly soak through. Miniature bonsai have little potting soil, which inevitably leads to a situation of little nutrient supply and insufficient nutrients. When considering fertilizing, take factors such as the plant species, the surrounding environment, and the seasonal weather into account.

With miniature bonsai bought online, everyone will find when repotting that the plant's root system is very well developed. So when we repot, first we should properly prune and comb out the plant's root system. Second, I generally remove the potting soil that came with the online purchase and use leaf mold soil dug up from outside to plant it.
