So is something like this not considered proper soil for a juniper?
I do believe the tree to be 5 years old. I have had it for over 2 years myself, and a friend purchased it from somewhere and was told it was 3 years old then. Maybe my naivete has opened me up to scrutiny and I apologize.
Also, is it more harmful to replant a tree in the winter or let it remain in almost complete potting soil with no drainage? Yes, in my stupidity, i potted it in a closed-bottom container in potting soil earlier this year. I should have consulted resources before making that jump I guess.
The plant has lived inside it's whole life, so I'm sure that's another fault against me. Once spring rolls around if I still have a plant to work with I will try to get it into the correct cycle of being outside.
I do appreciate the tough love, and I want to take this seriously. I guess I joined this sub without realizing just how serious you all were.

I just got this Juniper bonsai at the Sakura Matsuri in DC yesterday! I'm excited because I've wanted to get another bonsai after a few failed attempts before with ficus. I've put him outside. I bought some
soil (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007H14XAI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
and fertilizer (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07483PHWW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1).
Any suggestions with the buds? He looks ok to me so far. I am super nervous about him being outside, but I know he'll be fine and happier.
