As a bonsai, the soil and root system of the banyan tree are relatively small, so the tolerance to the environment is relatively poor. In this case, if we need to properly shade it in summer, or adjust it to a place with bright light but no direct sunlight, then in addition, we should put it in a place with sufficient light. If the light is insufficient, the branches of the banyan tree Will occur vapid, leaves will be more off, and even serious will cause the whole banyan bonsai death.
Note that the requirement for water content of banyan is rather wet than dry, which is relatively water absorbing, so when watering, make sure that the basin soil is slightly wet, and the interval between watering is too long, so that the basin soil is completely dry. Generally speaking, the frequency and quantity of watering can be slightly reduced when sleeping in winter, and the frequency and quantity of watering should be sufficient when growing period or high temperature in summer..
The demand for fertilizer of banyan tree is relatively large in the process of maintenance, but when it's maintaining bonsai, it's hoped that its shape will be damaged less, so it's necessary to control the fertilizer moderately, and change the basin and soil once in one to two years, so as to achieve the purpose of fertilizer supplement. In the northern region, yellow leaves will occur due to the reason of alkalinity, so nitrogen fertilizer water can be used for regulation and control.
And in the growth period when pruning, to prevent its shape damage, species is also very important.
