Hi Susan, we aren't available in your area but there are some other options for you. Find a 3-1-2 NPK Ratio fertilizer in your nursery or plant store. That will be best for your plant!
Hi Jen, great question! When you move a fiddle leaf fig or any plant, you'll want to make sure that it is in a temperature controlled truck or van so that the plant is not exposed to any extreme cold or hot temperatures. There are some great tips in this blog post as well! fiddleleaffigplant.com/best-tips-for-moving-your-fiddle-leaf-fig-plant/
Hi Melody, if the brown spots are dry and crispy, fully water your plant when the top inches of soil are dry ensuring all the soil is soaked and it drains well out the bottom drainage holes. If the brown spots on the leaves are dark, black, spreading from the veins, the soil and/or pot might not be draining well. I recommend posting some pictures inside our helpful fiddle leaf fig community for more support! fiddleleaffigplant.com/community
bought a big Fiddle leaf fig, it looked healthy but dirty , so I decided to clean the leafs. I found several of them with small round black spots, took them out, but I wonder if this is any kind of infestation.
Hi Anne Marie! Thank you for your question. Are you able to join and post a picture inside our community? That would be the best way to help you with your plant. fiddleleaffigplant.com/community
my flf confuses the hell out of me. I water it when its totally dry, typically every 7-10 days. I give it 1tsp of your FLF fertilizer each watering. It has sprouted TWO leaves in two years and multiple leafs have fallen off. What else can I do!?!?
Is it getting enough light? They should sit directly in front of and up against your brightest window. Even when they are pulled back from a window a foot or more, it's not enough light for them to thrive. For more help, join our wonderful fiddle leaf fig community! Fiddleleaffigplant.com/community
I have three stems and one of them have brown spots on the leaves. I suspect root rot but how is it possible to only have one stem suffering from root rot and the other two healthy.
It could begin that way, make sure to asses your drainage to ensure the water drains properly out the bottom drainage holes and your plant is getting the light it needs by sitting directly in front of and up against your brightest window.

I am attempting to save a fiddle leaf that was given to me because they weren't quite sure what to do with it. Would it be too risky to either remove all the leaves? Or should I just try to propagate some new plants from it? It's very leggy and 90 percent of the leaves are damaged or have large brown spots.
It may be time to chop and let it recover in front of your brightest window. But before you do, I recommend joining and posting a few pictures inside our helpful community for assistance! fiddleleaffigplant.com/community
I would keep away from kids and pets, but it is non-toxic as it's made from alo vera and chitosan. However, it does contain shellfish ingredients, so you would want to be careful if you have a shellfish allergy.
Hello! Yes, I would repot and use a fast-draining soil. Peat moss is not sufficient on its own to support the nutritional needs of the plant and to allow for the root system to get access to water when you water the plant. Happy Growing!
I assume big box stores just sell what they are sent from a wholesaler. I does not mean it’s in an appropriate container or the soil is one that will grow a healthy plant. I always double check the soil requirements, the plants get repotted 100% of the time.💁🏻♀️🙂
Hi there. I have a fig tree in a large pot I've had for 3 years. I don't know what kind of fig it is but I don't think it's a fiddle leaf fig. Each year it gets brown spots. It's full of beautiful leaves and grown so tall but it's only April and the leaves are full of brown spots about in different sizes with a light brown spot in each center. I just repotted it last year. I hope you can help me determine what to do, it's really upsetting me because I want one do bad. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Hi Sandy, thank you for your question. Are the brown spots dry and crispy? Is it getting too much direct sunlight? Best to join and post a few pictures inside our helpful community for assistance! fiddleleaffigplant.com/community
@@FiddleLeafFigPlant I'm sorry but I don't do Facebook. I don't think it's possible for it to have too much sun because it's been in the house over the winter and it was just put out when the weather started warming. I actually had to bring it in again because we had several freezing temperatures lately and it wasn't until it went out last time that it started getting spots. It's on my deck and at present it doesn't get full sun until the afternoon. If you have an email address you can give me I can send pics that way. It reminds me of some acid being dropped on the leaf and it kills the area where it landed and it does develop a hole eventually. Thanks so much for the help!
Little small dots on new growth can indicate a spider mite infection. Treat with an insecticide regularly until new growth comes out clear. For more support, please join and post inside our helpful fiddle leaf fig community! fiddleleaffigplant.com/community

Should you remove leafs with brown spots
I recommend removing any leaves that are more than 50% damaged.

Is the leaf amour spray pet friendly?

I bought a fiddle that says its from Vigoro from Home Depot. It looks like the soil is all peat moss. Should I repot in a different medium?
Hello! Yes, I would repot and use a fast-draining soil. Peat moss is not sufficient on its own to support the nutritional needs of the plant and to allow for the root system to get access to water when you water the plant. Happy Growing!

Fertilizer burns
My brown spots are large and crispy that start on the edge of the leaf and are large and eventually the leaf falls off
Sounds like it may be dry. Are you watering the plant enough?
