My Ficus lyrata finally dropped all its lower leaves after months of struggle

My Ficus lyrata finally dropped all its lower leaves after months of struggle. Turns out I'd been overwatering like crazy—the soil stayed damp way too long in my tropical humidity. Switched to watering only when the top inch dries out and it's already pushing new growth. Anyone else find that these things are pickier about moisture than people say, especially in warmer climates where drainage matters even more?
