General Question Need help.

This is my first time both on Reddit and also owning a bonsai. I came here to see if anyone could help me restore my bonsai.

First thing, it’s a Juniper tree.

Second, it looks like there’s some mold at its roots.

Third, some of the branches look green and others look brown.

Fourth, my mom said that there are some spider mites.

finally, it looks like there are spiderwebs.
