Am I doing good with this repotted Maple ? was created by IIppon

Hi everyone,

I repotted this maple from a little bonsai nursery here in Thailand.
First I would like to know if this period on the year isn't too bad for repotting a maple, the best time to repot a Maple seems to be a bit tricky and even tho I am in the Northern emisphere, seasons here are quite specials.

After having repotted it I sent a pic the the nursery and the guy told me that I should takes of all the leaves. I am a complete beginner and I don't know if I did well to cut them off but he was specialize in Maple so I decided to follow ilhis advice.

And other question is that I've seen that after repotting and trimming the tree should be place in a place with no wind. Unfortunately I don't have that much space on my balcony so I decided to put it here to leave more oxygen under the pot and to cover it from the wind I put a sealed bag on it, is it a good idea ?

Last question does it need sun or not especially? I don't know if the place after repotting is essential or not really and should I put it a warm or more cool place (here it Is about 34°c outside and about 25°c inside), in a very sunny or more shady place and should I sprayed water on the trunksl and brushes or leave it dry ?

Thank you for your help

I gave you some pictures before and after

I am not sure maples will do good without winter dormancy. Most likelly not. I think you need to find someone growing bonsai in your local area and ask.

They seems to do good the guy I bought the maple from has a very nice garden and stay less than 7km away from me.
He gave me lot of advice already but he doesn't speak English that much so I don't want to bother him as soon as I already talked a lot with him and realized that he were using Google translate quite often

Here are some pics of his nursery

If he lives 7km away, make him a buddy of yours lol.
That he takes the time to awnser you, and is using a translation tool. Means actually he is trying to learn it and with some good intend. If you still feel that it cost him to much, then just pay unasked for his time.
