My good friend Robert here is sad. I rescued him from drowning and lack of light by derooting, repotting in a perlite/bark/soil mix and moving closer to a window around 10 days ago and he is being incredibly sad about it all. I did everything that planta doctor/care told me to do based on how he looked before and if anything he looks a lot worse. Can anybody assist? Iāve attached photos from before and now!
Whenās the last time you watered?
0 gillningar I gave a little water when I repotted him, but because he was practically drowning before I didnāt want to over water !! Heās due to be watered tomorrow though
0 gillningar I think itāll perk back up quite a bit after watering it!
0 gillningar They are very dramatic itās probably a combination of moving it, repotting it, etc. I completely agree that ficus can be difficult to care for, but youāll get the hang of it! I killed my first one but now have 4 š¤Ŗ If it perks back up in this spot never move it again š.

Rubber trees are cursed. Idk anyone who has one thatās thriving or who doesnāt struggle with them! Iād check the roots to make sure there isnāt rot! If there is, you can cut the dead roots back, dip him in some rooting hormone, and replant him
0 gillningar Oh no!!! Not ideal haha ! When I repotted him 10 days ago to save from drowning his roots were all perfectly healthy still, got there in time ! Canāt decide if heās just sulking or not ahah
