# My bonsai is all of the sudden losing a lot of leaves over the past…

_Posted by Lo on 2025-04-26_

My bonsai is all of the sudden losing a lot of leaves over the past few weeks. Nothing has changed with my care schedule and there is still new growth. Any ideas? It’s spring here and it gets lots of sun, water when dried out. Thanks!

Huh that’s strange I would think it’s because over watering idk tho

Since it’s getting good light, I would say overwatering. When you notice it’s dry, try waiting another day or 2 before watering. Are you using Planta’s schedule?  
It’s a succulent remember, they need less water than we think.
