I have an 8 foot Fiddle setting in front of my SE picture window where it gets lots of sunlight. Each branch at top has buds “trying to open” for past three months. Why aren’t they opening up? The sheaths are brown but I see a green bud inside. I water it regularly and use moisture meter. I’m in central Ky when it’s going into Fall.

I have my fig in an east facing window that receives about 4 hours of direct sunlight with the rising sun. Is this too much light? I am noticing red splotching on the leaves.

I have moved my fiddle leaf fig to a nice bright room with eastern window. it’s receiving a good amount of sunshine but I’m afraid the area is drafty. The leaves are dropping. My other option is to move to another less drafty room but it has southern windows. Do you think this would be better?

Should the back of the leaves face the light?

This was inertesting. I have an indoor palm tree. The leaves are getting brown spots on them. Am I watering too much?
