Hi, I recently got a Juniper 名媛直播 and I wasn't sure that everything was okay, so I went on the Reddit 名媛直播 group to ask and they told me to get a bigger pot for my 2 and a half years old bonsai, so I did, but this pot was very big and I did it 2 days ago, which I just got told that its too late to repot right now and I shouldn't of done it and then I went to a bonsai shop to talk to someone that works there to have a better understanding of what to do and he told me that the pot that I had was big enough, but the soil that I had wasn't good for the bonsai. So I had to repot twice in 3 days, I changed his soil and I'm pretty sure because of the soil that the bonsai was in before, the soil was always wet, even after the 3 days, it was still wet, so I think it might've drowned too. Now the question, what do I do? Do I just hope for a miracle?

Just stop repotting and give it good care going forward.

Yeah that's what I'll be doing, but is there something that I can do to help him recover? Do I just hope for the best?

Looking at the foliage, the tree looks happy enough, so it went into your repotting frenzy being fine.

For now, do NOT water too much. This is a trap many beginners fall in. If the roots are having a hard time, keeping it constantly wet feels right, but the soil really needs to dry a little (!) between watering.

Your plant needs sun. I do not know how much of the roots was taken off. If not too much, I would place it back in the place where it was before, and continue caring for it as you did. Just note that if you used a different substrate than it was in that you might need to adjust the watering schedule.

Trees are robust. You probably have not killed it yet ;)
