Hey y'all! I've had my fiddle leaf for 3 years. It has adjusted very well to many things but recently I've lost 2 leaves and see new brown spots. I often water using hydrogen peroxide to avoid root rot. I did recently moved her spot in the house not sure if it could be that ? Adding pictures for reference of a falling leaves and brown spots !
Maybe under watered? The leaves look crispy and curled so

Water and sun

You won’t see immediate results because those brown spots will not go away, you simply will not have them on the new leaves (if the water is the problem). I water mine with filtered water because of this issue on other plants. Maybe back off on the hydrogen peroxide for a couple waterings & see if it helps. I see a few people saying to water more… but be careful, they don’t like too much water. If the leaves droop, yes, water it.
