Hi everyone!
I recently got a bonsai tree to take care of, unfortunately it got to me after a month of not the best care, so it has been a rocky start.
I had it for couple weeks, and it seems to be getting worse, despite trying to give it a lot of light (in my unit, a direct sunlight is only available for 2-3hrs in the morning). Outside of that I am trying to add in SANSI Grow Lights so it can get more light throughout the day.
Any suggestion and comments on how is it doing?
?

You picked the wrong species
Junipers can not be kept indoors.

The best thing you can do is to start reading up on bonsai. Once you know what it is all about, get a couple of trees that suits your climate and grow them outdoors. This one is dead, but it teaches a lesson. Just a few quick web searches on the tree species before buying saves you money and bad experiences.

Is there a way to save it if it's moved outdoors, like balcony? Or a full garden is needed?
It wasn't purchased, just inherited because it was left in an old office, trying to save it.
