    Thank you. You offer very good advise to beginners, especially that most bonsai are only suitable outdoors and watering is very important. In this regard, I would suggest that one avoid using tap water because it often contains toxic chemicals like chorine. If you must use tap water, boil it first and/or let it set for at least 24 hours. Rain water is best.
