It normal for a fiddle leaf fig cuttings to lower its side leaves. Is this to face the light source or is it something bad? Because the leaf closest to the light source is lowering itself and the middle is turning towards the direction of the light source.

Young Flf will be more “open” when they are looking for light or need water. More light and they tighten up/point up.

What is a good indicator of need watering.

If you stick a chopstick or wood skewer into the soil and it comes out completely dry/clean then it’s time to water!

When dry they will droop until watered, they like to goer really dry and then get a good watering… may also need to be closer to sunlight. Mine LOVE sitting right under a window!
