Hello all,
One of my bonsai over the past 2-3 weeks is looking quite poorly...starting with yellow leaves then quite sticky the leaves fall off quite easily. The soil is quite moist so unsure if I should replace soil and start afresh or use fertiliser more often?? Photos below any assistance greatly appreciated

The soil is moist longer because the plant is not evaporating: No leaves is low evapotranspiration.
Sticky leaves are an indication of aphid infection. Carefully check the leaves for aphids or scale. If they are there treat appropriately with a soap/alcohol spray or insecticide. If no insects present.. Please post a few focussed close up pics of branches.
