# Hello, can anyone help me ?🌱💕 I have 2 fiddle leaf fig trees here…

Hello, can anyone help me ?🌱💕

I have 2 fiddle leaf fig trees here and Im latterly doing everything possible to keep them healthy since we moved 3 months ago from a house (where they loved staying in the outside garden) into an apartment. I replanted them to a bigger pot (that I still think is small) and 1 month ago one of them lost 2 leafs and that is when I started getting more worried.

I have been treating them for thrips with a neem oil mist washing them on the shower and I believe they started looking better.

I am placing them in a room with more sunlight but probably they had too much direct sun light on them.

And now they have these brown spots more towards the bottom of the leafs.

I really want to keep them happy. Can anyone help me ?

Honestly best bet is looking up their optimal conditions and jotting them down, and compare to your conditions. Try experimenting with a pot with lots of drainage and don’t be afraid to water through. These plants are notorious for being hard to care for so reading up and comparing your conditions is what will help. 2 simple tools will do this an indoor thermo-hygrometer and a multi-soil meter with both of these you will find out conditions and find what your plant is needing.

I believe the brown spots are due to a moisture issue.

Is she fully dry before watering? I would check first because fiddle leafs are finnicky \& sometimes planta isn’t 100% correct. Also make sure the pot isn’t too big, this one looks fine though. I wouldn’t repot unless you think there’s a rot issue.

Wait you said it was too dry- what type of soil did you use?

#### Lisette svarade den 2023-08-02

Overwatering can cause leaf loss but so can underwatering, also once you find a good spot, don’t move it - that can also cause leaf loss 😅

I think it was this one

You can add some perlite for better aeration! But should be fine if you’re waiting to water until completely dry.

Yes, I watered her Sunday in the shower and she is still moist but usually they dry out pretty fast.

### Anna kommenterade den 2023-08-02

I also think some of the spots could be due to the sun. I placed them near a window with a lot of sun last week and i don't know if it could have been too much..

Ps: one of the days they were facing the other way
