I've had my Ficus lyrata for about four months now and I'm still figuring out the watering rhythm—it seems to hate both extremes. I noticed the lower leaves are getting a bit pale, and I'm wondering if that's normal as it adjusts or if I'm overwatering. My tropical setup stays pretty humid, so I'm hesitant to mist more. Does anyone else struggle with fiddle leaf figs, or am I just overthinking this? Would love to hear what's worked for your own.
