Question: How do I prune my bonsai tree?
Option 0: Prune back to 2 leaves after 6-8 leaves have grown. Leaf pruning with a fork can be used to reduce leaf size, as some ficus Bonsai species normally grow large leaves. If a considerable thickening of the trunk is desired, the ficus can be left to grow freely for one or two years.
