I've had my Ficus lyrata for about four months now and it's finally pushing out a new leaf, which feels like a win. I'm still figuring out the watering schedule though—I've read conflicting advice about letting the soil dry out between waterings versus keeping it consistently moist. Mine seems happiest when I water deeply but wait until the top inch is dry. Has anyone else found a rhythm that works, or am I just getting lucky so far?
