On the label it said to water once per week but how much do you guys think i should use? Should i try fertilizer or any other supplements as well? I’ll include photos of the plant and how it’s triangulated between 2 windows. It get about 2-4 hours of direct sunlight and the rest i guess indirect? I’ve only taken care of 2 plants in my life so I don’t know terminology.

ficus bonsai. give it a half liter of water once a week making sure the soil under the moss is drying in between waterings. bright room near a window but not with sunbeams hitting it directly. really easy plant and a great starter bonsai (i got one as a gift and have been lazily doing this and its still alive after 2 years) – don’t be afraid to prune some branches or ugly old leaves/parts – it encourages it to grow new leaves! that spot might be a little too dim, a bit closer to either window would probably be okay though.
Low indirect light. Water sparingly as it stores water in trunk. Can always google the species for proper care instructions.
