I've had my Ficus lyrata for about eight months now and I'm still figuring out the watering rhythm

I've had my Ficus lyrata for about eight months now and I'm still figuring out the watering rhythm. It seems happy enough—new leaf unfurling near the top—but I'm nervous about root rot since I'm in a tropical climate where everything stays pretty humid. Does anyone else struggle with knowing when to actually water theirs? I'd love to share a photo if I could, because I'm genuinely unsure if it's thriving or just tolerating me right now.
