My fiddle leaf fig is starting to lean now that it’s getting taller. What’s everyone’s favorite support for these? Or do I need to cut it? I like the height so I’d rather not yet if I don’t have to.

    A stake like this would work well

    You can also rotate it so it grows evenly upwards. When I have a plant that’s leaning I turn it so it leans away from the sun and it will correct itself over time and become straighter

    You can also shake the trunk to make it stronger so it won’t lean as much. Definitely agree with turning it to keep it growing up

    Yes— rotate regularly. 👏🏼

    Yes, either rotate or use a rod to help it stand! Don’t cut it though because many would LOVE a fig as tall as yours!

    It looks like it’s reaching for more light to me. You could move it a bit more in front of the window or stake it and add a supplemental grow light directly above.
