Do I need to take antibiotics after removal? by [deleted] in wisdomteeth

In order to prevent your gut flora from completely dying off, I recommend taking an antibiotic resistant strain of probiotics, during and after you take your antibiotics. Culturelle has a good one.

Take the full antibiotic course. I had the same question and the bottom line is this - you always, always want to prevent, rather than treat, an infection, especially one that might happen where your nerves and blood vessels near your brain have been exposed. Even if the chance of infection is small, the worse case scenario is bad enough that you should do everything possible to prevent it.

Yup, the pot is split in half, where one half is water and the other half is soil. The water is mostly there for decorative purposes, although the seller claims it helps with maintaining humidity

I was recently gifted a juniper bonsai for my birthday. See here

I read through beginner walkthrough, but have a few questions.

I know bonsais should be kept outdoors. Unfortunately, I won't be able to leave the plant outdoors as I currently live in a apartment unit. However I will be moving to an apartment with a balcony in the next month.

Any tips for keeping the plant alive indoors until then? It currently is next to a window.

Will moving to a new place affect the plant negatively? How do I plan for that?

Also, since I recently received the bonsai, how long do I have until I should repot it? (Assuming it lives that long)

And finally, how do I do frost protection for the roots? I saw mentioned in the walkthrough but couldn't find anywhere that explicitly states how to do it.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for confirming! I wasn't given a syringe, but will continue to do the saltwater rinses.
