Finally figured out why my fiddle leaf fig kept dropping leaves—it wasn't the watering, it was the cold drafts from my door. Moved it three feet away and it's actually thriving now. These plants are dramatic but they're not complicated, just touchy about temperature swings. Mine's been stable for months, so if yours is struggling, check where it actually sits before you start messing with your whole watering routine.
