Hi everyone,
We are new to bonsai.. We got our juniper bonsai 2 months ago, and followed the watering schedule (7-10 days) and fertilization schedule (one a month) recommended to us. I watered it exactly 9 days ago, and also used a bottle of fertilizer given to us. I just noticed the needles turning brown from the base of the branches. I just checked the soil and it's still damp so I think we may have been overwatering it.. But I also read that it might be normal growth process..
Can anyone help me diagnose it from the pictures below (I've pinched out some of the brown needles)? What can I do to help it? We would hate to lose our beautiful bonsai
