5 important things you need to know regarding Ficus lyrata Fiddle Leaf Fig🌱

[@360vision]

The best video on the fig tree that I've seen. Now excuse me, I'll be notching!

[@patfondren6013]

You are so complete in the care and "growth" and "branching" of the ficus. Very succinct. Appreciate this so much. Subscribed and thumbs up. Will be referring to this many times.

[@juanmacias4854]

Good video, but disagree on watering. On my first Fig plant I followed the said advice above and nearly lost it to too much watering. What I found through trial and error, is that the plant loves a lot of water but likes to dry out. As such I water mine profusely outside, soak it for about 5 minutes with water running out the bottom. Why, this takes out all the salts in the soil. I then let it drain for 15 to 3 minutes, take it inside and put it into its decorative pot. There it sits growing and looking beautiful for about a month. At the month cycle I test the soil, if it's still registering moist, I let it go another week. Once it registers to the dry side (water meter), I repeat the watering process. My first Fig has grown to over 7 feet and has grown 3 additional branches. Hope this helps.

[@juliachow9137]

Great information! I appreciate this precise and clear instruction video tape. In the past, I have made some mistakes of pruning and growing fiddle leaf fig trees. Now, they are out of shape, and I am figuring out how to made them look better. I'll follow your notching and cutting methods to shape my trees.

[@marthamiriam8983]

Very informative video. THANK YOU for this. I have a Fiddle Leaf fig that is growing straight with beautiful big leaves at some point I will notch it. I will rewatch this for confidence reasons. GREAT VIDEO AAGGAAIINN!!

[@deborah1012]

Thank you so much for your video. I rescued my fiddle leaf after it had been passed over at the grocery store for a year. It was in need of some loving care. So, I brought it home and repotted it and it's growing a lot but has adema and I did not know what it was. I'm so relieved, thank you!

[@keithpugh7538]

Thank you for this video, I’ve been waiting because my fiddle leaf fig had those red spots and I didn’t know what they were. Now I can relax. This is my 3 rd time trying to grow one and this one seems to be growing well since I’ve given it more light than the others I had.👍

[@nehainamdar8357]

[@Sonnebo]

this is such a helpful video! thank you so much for all the tips and tricks as always. my ficus is still pretty small but i have been wondering about what it would look like in future. you also tell everything precisely and without extra ‘look at my lifestyle’ information that many plant enthusiasts have. i appreciate your channel a lot!

[@rowenaflores61]

Wow! I will do that to my fiddle leaf fig. Thanks for the tip! love you guys❤️💚❤️💚

[@jennyb7478]

Thank you for you detailed explanations.

[@jessielu8098]

Very good video. it’s very good for me you speak slowly. I learned how to plant the Ficus Lyratas. I also learned English from your video.I will keep watching your video.

[@NazeeraFi]

Thanks, this was very informative. I like that you explain how it works and what you can expect to happen, like which way you can direct the branch to grow.

[@queen-malika]

I like the way you’re teaching us. I have this plant at home so it’s very useful information. Thank you!

[@brendaaguayo7249]

i just recently bought a fiddle leaf fig tree at a plant store & i didn’t realize until i got home that the leafs have holes on them. I’ve been looking for a video that will help me help those leaf’s health but i have no luck 🥲😭 theirs about 4 of them that are breaking leafs/holes in them

[@monicac.495]

Fantastic information Thank you so much so 🙏 😊

[@thephotographersunny]

Such a helpful video

[@lissettemontalvo9625]

Thank you!!!!! This was great info for my little fiddle leaf fig!!👍🏻❤️

[@taniag4852]

I always water from the bottom. Is that okay? When it rains I pop it outside for a thorough drenching but all other times bottom watering.

[@irinachervinsky4961]

Thanks a lot!!! Very useful video and very clear explanation!!!!!

[@malgaa3655]

Thank you!!! this was very helpful and clear as well

[@luckybarrel7829]

Best thing: These tips work for all ficuses!

[@parslakalane]

Realy? Did you do this by rubber tree?

[@luckybarrel7829]

@@parslakalane I've heard it works for rubber tree also. I've only tried on Ficus microcarpa and variegated triangle fig.

[@Trocc-llc]

Thank you! What if the leaves are turning brown at the leaves tips, and at the stem?

[@Jonito_xcx]

So far I've heard three different ways to water the Ficus Lyrata. I'm guetting a bit confused cause in each video, the plants looks amazing haha I guess it depends on where you live and the light it gets.

[@twistymisstea3439]

I was so afraid to own one but since I have one now for a month it only dropped one leaf and is producing more leaves even in dormant months and yes the edema is unavoidable and it is cute freckles until the mautre!

[@madelaine3209]

This is the very best video! i would love to see exactly how much water you give for that size plant. Is it 8 ounces, 16 ounces, 24 ounces and how often in a home with air condition and a home with heat on. Thank you!!!!!

[@lawniczakjohn]

Good stuff!

[@shamimshaherwala1802]

My fif is small in single stem. And in clay pot.it has brown spots on almost all leaves. It's main stem is hard and brown. It's kept in shade of a bright balcony. I loved your video and perfect explanation. Can you please guide for its further care. I dont want to ruin it. New leaves are not growing nor It has a bud. I'll wait for your 3 4 and 5 tips until it's healthy but how would I know it's getting well or not.

[@myrnasharif499]

thanks , for this very informative video, i newly bought Ficuslyrata recently, its quite doing well, but wanted to ask , about my rubber plant, i have this plant for almost 10 years, and got so many cuttings and gave it to my friends. now, i have only the mother plant and i wanted to ask can i do the notching to my old rubber plant, as of now he has only two branches, and i want to have some if i do the notching??

A Fiddle Leaf Fig tree that I care for lost of it's leaves in the past freeze. I repotted the tall baron tree into a healthy mix of potting soil with compost and earthworm castings. Leaves have grown. prolifically around of the tree. I'm wondering if more leaves will grow up the whole bare tree or should I cut the dead tree off. Please help. Tk you

[@missbajaklaut]

Dear best Skandierten Plant Tuber... would you like please talk about growth Lamp? Is it enough to buy a Fluorence Lamp. Thank you. Hug for all your Team!

[@morningmayan]

Thank you very much

[@blessedlove3183]

Wow thank you so much for your very detailed explanation of pruning , pinching and nothing , I pinched and notched my rubber plant 2 weeks a go but I haven’t seen any tiny buds coming out from the stem and with this it makes me think to prune the rubber plant that I pinched , nothced, do you think it is a good idea?

[@mariavaldez7147]

Will notching work on a rubber plant? Tried to propagate plant with water and dirt and failed miserably! I don't want to cut more off the plant. Thanks for all the great info. Unless you go to a plant nursery, people at big box stores know nothing about plant care.

[@marconow01]

Hi!! Maybe you should try with a cytokinin product, I dont know, but maybe it can work, saludos!

[@DebCray]

It is Fall in Wisconsin-USA; my fiddle leaf is really tall and skinny; should i wait until Spring to prune and notch? And can the piece you cut off from pruning be propagated?

[@dianemerrett3774]

My fiddle leaf has not got lower leaves down to the soil like yours has. How do I promote more growth at the bottom of the main stems. I've only just got this plant and it was like that when I got it.

[@maureensanta1804]

Thank you 🙏🏾

[@adahaashiho2164]

My fiddle fig is not growing well. Great information from your video 📹 👍

[@chloelim7369]

Very educational video! Thank you so much

[@ophieyaleahsarmiento9374]

Thank you

[@emcb6429]

Very helpful tutorial, thank you. Can you plant this in self watering pot?

[@rockshot100]

Plant guy, I know you are a botanist, talking about apical meristematic growth. I am going to try to notch and pinch. I never had any success with notching alone. Let's see what happens. Thanks.

[@sharonl652]

Great video that explains so much more details than other videos I have watched ! But I have one more question that is it a good ideal to plant fiddle leaf in a self watering pot ? Will it be too much moisture to it ? Looking forward to your response, thank you for the helpful video !

[@Mlspky]

I’ve found self watering pots cause roots to stay too wet. It keeps soil at the bottom too wet and soil near the top not wet enough. It’s best to top water so ALL the soil gets watered thoroughly and can wash all the minerals and salts out.

[@flootjeflo]

Hey, first of all, I love your video’s. I’ve learnt so much. So thank you for that. My question is not about this plant but about pests. Can you please make a video in future about pests that explains everything very good. That will help me a lot ‘cos I don’t find a good video about it. 🙏🏻😉

[@claudiacanales2662]

Question: how do you clean the leaves?

[@villagesue1]

My stem is very bare, and very long. Can I knotch it several areas to get leaves to grow again?

[@CameliaSong]

I pruned mine to get growth on the bottom part but my ficus decided that it wants to keep growing up instead and gave me a new bud exactly beside where I pruned 🙄🙄🙄 gonna pinch that lil baby there and try again lmao ty for the video

[@melanieklarofficial]

Can dry brown spots mean too little humidity? too much? watering problems?

[@josephhaynes3017]

Will it help to add propagation hormone after notching ?

[@QuangNguyen-md8ky]

tried notching on my fiddle leaf and a bunch of more leaves are coming. Thanks a lot

[@mamalongsplants1559]
