Hi,

I got my first bonsai a month ago and It started losing leaves for two days. It lost seven leaves yesterday and four ones today. I'm a little concerned and today I added some egg shells in soil since I heard its calcium would help.

The leaves look healthy and I'm afraid it's dying. I attached some pictures. It's what happened in last few days, so kindly please let me if you think any of these could be a reason:

1. Five days ago I added two neighbors, one of them is Coleus, can they fight with my bonsai?
2. Two weeks ago I built a wooden plant stand and while color looked dried then, I can still smell color.. May I hurt it by putting it in stand?
3. Five days ago I placed a lampshade in stand. It's about one meter far from bonsai, has 5 watt yellow LED and no direct light come from it to bonsai. Can it be it? I already decided to not turn it on anymore..
4. It's a week weather is cloudy and there is no sunlight.. I'm afraid, I can't do anything about it
5. My place water is a little hard.

Thank you in advance for putting your time. Any comments are welcome.

Egg shells? that's a new one

Very usual with home gardeners around here. In fact I have an orchid growing in a vase full of eggshells, and nothing more, besides water.

I once bought a plant like that thinking it was a bonsai. 1 year later I did this to it:


Now 3 months later it's starting to look like something that maybe with enough time could look like a bonsai-ish tree:
