I don’t know what is happening to my fig plant but it’s not snails. I have checked the leaves a million times for any insect but I cont find a single one. The only thing this plant has is fungus gnats. I don’t even know how to help it.

That looks like something bit it off. Do you have pets?

No, I can’t see anything. All I have is fungus gnats

PETS, not pests.
