I primed my ficus elástica and it didn’t give off that while milky substance like it did when I pinched it. What does that mean?

I have no idea! Never happened to me before 🫣  
Was the soil dry maybe??

I had just repotted it with fox farm soil and orchid bark. I also fertilized it right after repotting. It’s a liquid fertilizer so she wasn’t dry.
