Repotting Cedrus dislike repotting, so go easy on root pruning. They can drop older needles, but these are soon replaced. Repot carefully every 3 or 4 years.
Prune during spring and late summer pinch out new growth to encourage thickening of pads and foliage. Pinch back new shoots throughout the growing season.
Structural pruning can be undertaken late autumn, to avoid bleeding. Pruning scars heal very slowly, if removing branches, stubs can be left as a Jin.
Be careful leaving wire on too long as the wire scare take a long time to heal. Thats why I wire Autumn to Spring therefore avoiding wire being on during growing season.
