hello guys, im new to this (also english is not my native language)
I've been keeping my lovely bonsai giseng ficus for 2 months now.
but my question is, those branches under the thick root, is there a way to change/remove this? I don't think its supposed to be like this.
Regular ginsengs have thick roots and not tiny branches at the bottom right?

I am not sure what you think is a problem. There are no branches on the bottom of the trunk There are roots

The plants sold as Ficus "Ginseng" do have monstrous, disproportionate roots.

Bonsai do not.
