Default [IBC] Trident maple and juniper problem

In a message dated 4/20/2004 8:54:15 PM Eastern Standard Time,
writes:
Most of the leaves that grew
indoors have become how should i say this wilted and brown (looks as
through the leaves have been burnt if you know what i mean). Any
suggestions?

Also i have a small juniper and it looks nice except for one branch has
become completely brown, should i snip it off? the rest of the tree
looks fine, but hasnt had really any new growth?

Any help would be great.

I have my studio in the suburbs of Philadelphia--when simply went from winter
to summer. );-)

Trident: Defoliate the tree and place it outside in full sun to produce a
new crop of leaves. Do not overwater this tree in its defoliated state.

Juniper: Remove the dead branch, but check the root pad. Unexpected branch
death can be the result of root rot. If you find rotten roots, follow the
procedure as described in the email about the Sageretia, which I sent to Dunk.

If you are concerned about your Trident, contact me off list and we can chat
about your tree over a call.

Cordially,
