I've had my Ficus lyrata for three years now, and I've finally stopped obsessing over every leaf spot. Turns out the thing just needs excellent drainage, bright indirect light, and patience—not constant fussing. Mine actually thrives in my arid climate where I'd expected it to sulk. If you're new to these, resist the urge to repot too often. That's usually where people run into trouble.
