Hello Everyone My name is Steven
I am fairly new to the bonsai hobby. I recently purchased a Juniper bonsai i will post a picture as soon as i can but my main concern right now is it may be not be getting enough sun. I want more bonsai but i wanted to set up a 4ft growing area but with artificial lighting. I wanted to know if anyone has used LEDS or Florescent Fixtures to grow there bonsai if so can anyone point me in the right direction
