they seem like a lot of hard work, do you have any advice
for growing bonsais yoon?
- they are a lot of hard work !!
mine hasnt sprouted yet so i dont have much advice, but i would say to make sure you balance the amount of sunlight it gets with the amount of water you give it. for example, if you kept it inside where its somewhat shaded, then you wouldnt give it as much water as an outdoor bonsai where it gets a ton of sun.
basically just check the soil every once in a while to see if the top is moist, if it isnt then use a gentle watering can since theyre a bit fragile
aaaand i would say that if you arent patient to get a starter kit, as the 'grow your own from seeds' kit said the tree would sprout in eight or so weeks and mine hasnt showed any sign of sprouting soon :c
