1. Select small leaf plants for bonsai.. or needle plant like casuarina
2. Chose a plant that is suitable to Chennai climate.
3. Plants that you will be able to reduce the leaf size by defoliation
4. Look at structure first and establish that well.
5. Feed the plant well and let it grow in a growth pot in the initial few years
I think it better to go slow on feed after defoliation as the next set of leaves will be bigger than the last...
I think it is better to defoliate little before the growth season. Then give a little feed to the plant so it grows well in the growth season

6. Avoid wiring when the plant and soil are wet. Wire when the soil is completely dry.
7. Defoliate during growth season of the plant
