Tips on watering, see technical data collection.

Let dry slightly the surface layer of the soil between each watering (to confirm if the plant already needs water, touch the earth with the fingers).

If you have a dish under Bonsai, never leave any water in it (to prevent the roots from rotting).

There is no advantage in spraying the leaves, just do it in the days when it adds up and if the fertilizer goes for foliar application, but ensure that they arrive dry at night to avoid fungi.
