What else is air circulation responsible for?
A closed or confined space is the perfect environment for pests and disease, two of the most terrible enemies of bonsai trees. The regular movement of fresh air helps prevent pests, like spider mites, from establishing their webs and infesting and damaging your bonsai trees. Air circulation also assists your trees in the movement of essential fluids from the roots to the leaves, by osmosis, another technical term and vital; process. Air also prevents possible root rot conditions, from soil saturation, by helping in water evaporation.
How can air circulation be improved for a bonsai?
If your bonsai is kept indoors or inside a greenhouse, you might consider leaving a door open, and a fan, or fans, running. Spraying and misting your bonsai off regularly will help to remove all dust from the bottoms and tops of leaves, allowing your bonsai to "breathe" freely and to continue its photosynthetic processes.
