my ginseng ficus has been yellowing to the point where leaves are falling off every day, but I haven’t watered it in two weeks and it’s roots look fine despite there being no drainage holes. it gets medium light at room temp…what have I done wrong this time?

I keep mine outside and water daily - maybe more light?

Needs drain and bright light. I rescued one that started to do that and ended up in terrible shape, but he is coming back!
