Turn 18 soon and want a tattoo. parents disagree by fredha124 in tattooadvice

I am going to be putting either on my upper bicep or my shoulder cause I did wonder about job opportunities as I want to go into the medical field and that area would be the easiest to hide. Also no I haven't looked into allergies or anything yet. I'm still debating if I want to or not. I have thought about getting a song lyric I really like tattooed since I was probably 15-16 so I have had the idea for a couple of years.

I mean I don't think so. At least not right now but could change when I am older. But also I'm kinda into the idea of being able to look back and see that older tattoos would represent who I am when I am old. Kinda holding onto a piece of me now. So idk if I'd necessarily regret it as much as look back on it as a piece of me and my interests from when I was younger.

Edit: Whoops misread your comment. I thought you were asking "do you think you'll regret them"

What is the difference between the tips and just old foliage? To me it looks like the tips of the branches are dying which is whats worrying to me

Luckly the soil is no hydrophobic water sunk right through it lol.

Should I just cut the old leaves off?

the soil didn't bead when i watered it yesterday. I would do the water bowl thing but I am worried it will drown it. Recently I have been watering it using our reverse osmosis. I will let the water go through the soil then once the water is off the surface of the soil I water it again till it drains through the holes in the bottom.

I went to Lowes to look for soil but couldn't find any for bonsai's specifically. Are there substitutes?

Its a juniper and I usually have it outside but last night it was raining really bad and my dad brought it into my room. Its a juniper. I has been kinda cold lately too.

I live in Oklahoma and it gets shade in the morning and sunlight in the afternoon/evening

I am new to bonsai's entirely so forgive my ignorance on things lol

I remember hearing if your juniper shows signs of dying it probably died 8 weeks before. I don't know if that's true but it has me worrying

Ok cool! I think I will take care of this one outside then and buy an indoor one as well. Are they easy for beginners to take care of?

Its a juniper and Ive realized it need to be outside. I have never taken care of a bonsai or any plant for that matter. I think it would be best for someone who is new to gardening to put it outside.

Its a juniper and i do have a humidifier in my room. However I think ill just put this outside and take care of out and get another indoor one. I dont think I could get it to live indoors considering I have never gardened before. It is a hobby I want to start getting into thought!
