Hi everyone!

I have a Juniperus chinensis var. sargentii according to the seller.?

It has been with me for?around 6 months and it used to have slight brown tips but still vibrant green overall.

Currently it has a dull green foliage and looks dry.?

It's receiving indirect sunlight throughout and artificial grow light 25w throughout the day. I water it when soil is almost dry.

Did the scratch test, its white.

It doesnt look dead yet.. but it doesnt look healthy. I'm unable to get direct sunlight.?

Attached a few photos, along with a comparison of a Juniper that I think looks healthy.

In need of professional advice.

Junipers are temperate trees and needs to be outdoors at all times. If kept indoors they will die and there are no way around that.

So just bring it outdoors. First in full shade and then during a 4-6 weeks period transfer slowly to full sun. Once in full sun never move it again.
