Guide to Bonsai General Care
from: Lawn and Garden Magic
There are three main steps involved with general Bonsai care. Whether yours is an indoor or outdoor Bonsai, caring for a tree should always include soaking the tree completely 1 - 3 times a week, daily misting and exposing it indirectly to bright sunlight. If you follow these simple steps to Bonsai general care, your Bonsai tree should remain healthy for many years.
However, the time will come when the Bonsai tree will require more than basic care. You'll also need to prune, feed and usually repot the Bonsai. Here's more information on Bonsai general care that will help you in provide for your Bonsai tree properly.
In Bonsai general care, you always need to consider these elements -- water, sunlight and food. For indoor Bonsai trees, you should set the proper schedule for watering that's suitable to the tree's environment. Start each week by soaking the Bonsai in a container of tap water. Don't immerse the whole tree. The water should be just at the level of the first branch. When you do this, you'll notice some bubbles. If the bubbles are few it means it will be a little while before the next watering. You'd know when to water the Bonsai if the soil has dried just a little. Don't wait for the soil to dry completely before you water the Bonsai again.
For outdoor Bonsai trees, you should also immerse the Bonsai, as explained above, at least once every month. Daily watering, ideally in the morning, is necessary because an outdoor Bonsai tree dries out quickly. Use a hose spray with moderate pressure.
The Bonsai will have new growth during the spring and during this time, continuous feeding is important. To feed the Bonsai, you can insert a fertilizer stick or use a slow-release fertilizer. You can also add a week Bonsai fertilizer each week when you immerse the Bonsai in water.
Sunlight is, of course, essential for Bonsai care. If you have an indoor Bonsai, you should place it in indirect sunlight for about 5 hours. You can take it outside during warmer months but don't place the tree in direct sunlight, especially during the noon or afternoon heat. It will, however, do your indoor Bonsai good to give it a few hours of direct sunlight during summer mornings. Protect outdoor Bonsai trees from the day's heat. Except for large juniper and pine Bonsai trees which require a half day of direct sunlight, other outdoor Bonsai trees will get their ideal amount of sunlight during the morning and afternoon.
