This leaf just fell off my fiddle leaf fig. Is it a bacteria or just light/water issues? Thanks, fam!

This is happening to me too but mine started after repotting which was 2 months ago and now some random leaves are doing this and there is a pup growing out of the base.

Curious!

It could be a multitude of things. The way that the browning looks it could be a bacterial or fungal infection or I could be heat damage from a heat sorse nearby

I was looking at the photo of the plant you provided I see the yellowing is starting to happen to the other leaves too. Fiddles don't like to be moved around alot so I'm not sure if you moved the physical plant recently

I hadn’t moved it for at least 2 years before that leaf dropped. Since then I decided to bring it to a corner with more light. Now I’m just keeping an eye on it.
