• Place it in a bright spot with indirect sunlight, ensuring it receives about 6-8 hours of light daily.
• Use well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes to prevent water from pooling at the roots.
• Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, with approximately 2 to 3 cups of water every week. Adjust as needed for your environment.
• Fiddle Leaf Fig thrive in temperatures between 60°F and 75°F (16°C to 24°C). Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
• Fertilize sparingly, once in spring and summer, using a diluted, balanced fertilizer.
• Remove any dead or yellowing leaves and inspect for pests like mealybugs or spider mites, treating any infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
• Repot plants every 1-2 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining soil.
• Allow the plant to dry out for a few days before and after repotting to reduce stress.
