Hello everyone, i bought two days ago a little spruce with a nice and interesting Looking rootbase. Thus i started with whirering and repotting the tree. Now some of the needles turned Brown. I know thats caused the whire itself, but other needles turned Brown too. I should say that i am a total Newcomer and had no tree with needle before, so i cutted the most of the needles to a half ( to make them look smaler) and i think that was a realy bad idea. Is there a way for my tree to survive this?

Thank you anyway
You will not like a longer reply either.
Growing Bonsai takes time and lots of it. Each step must be carefully planned and done at the right time.
You had it for two days, repotted it wired it, cut the needles without even giving the tree time to get used to its new environment.
Essentially, you butchered it.
Needles are Not cut to make them smaller. They will dry out and fall of. If you have cut too many, the tree dies - if it even survives the other actions.
The tree has still green (uncutted) needles. It remains in shadow antil im sure it will survive. For now there are no other needles which seem to durn Brown. I make sure to water enough and take a look every day. likewise when i repotted the tree i didnt cut a lot of roots (just a very Little bit).
I am sorry for a harsh answer, but i got a bit mad. But i realized it was cause of my own foolishness.
thank you for the answers . I will update as soon as there emerge another causes.
