This is my 1st bonsai. I got it 3weeks ago and the leaves are continously turning yellow and then dark drown(like it's burn).
Recently I changed the soil from Clay to a fukien specific draining soil. Also due to limited light I am use a UV lamp for 10hrs a day. Please help

Sorry, there is no such a thing as a "Fukien specific soil".naba09 wrote: Recently I changed the soil from Clay to a fukien specific draining soil.
There is bonsai soil, free draining and aerated.
Naba, a picture or two would help a lot.naba09 wrote: Also due to limited light I am use a UV lamp for 10hrs a day.
Your Fukien should be outside. Trees belong outdoors. An UV lamp will not be sufficient for the tree needs.
Please take a look:

That's not so bad after all and the soil looks ok.
Old leaves turn yellow, brown and die in a natural process.
Let it rest and water correctly.
