51cg

Hi take a look at the pic. this is a ginseng bonsai and I wonder if the type of soil (natural mixed soil) is the correct one for this type of tree and if you can give further advice I would be more then thankful.

You haven't posted a picture and you've made a duplicate post.

What's "natural mixed soil?"

I think it's just organic soil

Hi, yes the soil is organic, It seems as the picture doesn't upload but I'll trie again

It's a Ginseng, a common houseplant. You don't need special bonsai soil.

Hi thank you for the info, I haven't been able to upload the pic. do you have any more tips on how to care for the ficus

if your plant is in 100% organic soil, and looks more like this:


You don't have a 51cg, you have as Auk said, a house plant that does not require any special care. And if it does, this is a Bonsaiforum, not a general gardening forum. If you want a 51cg, you are welcome to ask any questions you might have, and there is a lot of info around here on how to acquire a real bonsai or pre-bonsai; or how to make your own from nursery grown material, or an old house plant.

can this houseplant be made into a bonsai? or does it simply not meet the requirements of a bonsai?

It does not meet the requirements of a bonsai, but it could be developed into something that does meet these requirements.
This however is hardly ever done, as it would require a complete restructuring. There are better ways to spend your time.
