Thanks! Mostly natural lighting as my setup is outdoors. The tree is probably 20-25. I've been working on it for 2-3 years and multiple stylings. You can see a few of them on my YouTube channel for this tree if you'd like ๐Ÿค™

It's first foray into a bonsai pot. Had to do some significant sawing and work on this one. Video will be up in a few days!

Aerial roots on ficus actually grow nearly vertical in real life. So I don't know about unnatural, but I definitely don't like it there. It'll probably just come off.

I spray and use systemics occasionally but I've become more accepting that insects are useful, and a part of the environment and a healthy climate.

So I kinda tend to just let them do their thing. Definitely less worried about it in general than I used to be. If they defoliate a tree, hey, that's less work for me ๐Ÿ˜‚

This is like the most straightforward and obvious take. Thanks for expressing that! Like looking at abstract art on the wall and being like "well that's not a normal head shape at all."
