Juniper Sabina

Post by ronaldonthemove »

Hi all,
I was gifted a Juniper Sabina recently and I'm extremely new to the world of bonsai's. I've had it for about two weeks now and I haven't watered it yet as I read up that you should let the soil dry before watering but the soil is still really damp and muddy. Should the soil be like that or should I re-pot it in new soil? And what kind of fertilisers do you guys use on your Junipers? I can't find much information online about it.
Thanks. :)

Hi Ronald and welcome to Ausbonsai. Would it be possible to post a photo of your juniper please? It will help greatly in assisting you with your questions.
Cheers

And let us know where you keep it. Inside? Outside? If outside, have you been having rain?

We had a little rain in Victoria a few months back. :palm: :fc:
Ronald, Junipers should be in full sun, if the soil is still damp after a week you will need to re pot
Q: Why are we all here?
A: Because we are not all there.
