My tree appears to be dying. I re-potted this tree for two reasons:
1) It wasn't in well draining soil
2) I wanted to plant it in well draining inorganic bonsai soil
3) I wanted to see what the roots looked liked
After re-potting I fertilized the tree under the impression that this would spur new root and leaf growth.
I have been exposing the tree to morning sunlight from an east facing window, in addition to 12 hours of artificial light at night immediately after re-potting. It has been less than a week.
Clearly, I've been unintentionally killing my tree. Can anyone offer any advice on how to save this tree? It was green and healthy less than a week ago.

I am no expert in revivals, but would suggest few things. Your tree dries, its either roots damage or simply no water in soil. If you dont live too up norht, take it out on moderate sun and leave it there, dont move in move out and dont keep indoor. Good luck.

In the case that my tree has undergone root damage, should I continue to water it as usual ? Also, should I defoliate all of the leaves?

I'm afraid that if i move the drying tree outdoors it will experience sun burn as it has been trained to live indoors and it is becoming rather sunny outside in NY.

It may be something with the fertilizer too. Wait for the experienced guys here to give you further directions, if tree is not dead by now though.

It looks to me that it might not come back , but if you want a chance you should keep watering it as the soil becomes dry and leave it in the shade , don't move it about , don't touch it just let it do its thing if it has anything left to do

Oh and keep it away from any source of heating if you are not putting it outside.

I understand why you wanted to repot it. However, looking at the trunk, it seems to me it was already in a pretty bad state when you repotted. Repotting it may have just pushed it over the edge. Seems there is no coming back for this tree.

Doesn't mean you shouldn't try; just continue to give it proper care (look up the care guidelines), and wait. Don't fertilize. Pay attention to not overwater it.
Also, why would you want to put it under an artificial light during the night? Doesn't seem a good idea to me.

Thank you all for your replies.
It could've been in bad conditions when I bought this tree. When I re-potted it, I noticed it had a huge solid mass of clay stuck in the root mass. I figured this would, in the long run, suffocate the roots.
I had read some where that the more light the better for these trees, especially since in my space it only gets direct sunlight from 7a.m- 12 p.m. I'm not home during the afternoons so I would put it in light at night. Thank you for letting me know that isn't a good idea.
Will update you all if the trees comes back.

Trees need rest at night, same as people do. Pushing tree to "work" when it usually rests is kinda wrong. Wish you this tree recovers and you both be happy again.
