fiddle leaf fig leaves pointing upwards

This makes them somewhat challenging for the home grower, who is likely to have trouble duplicating these steamy conditions. That totally makes sense Great Article! Example: "Miracle-Gro Fertilizer" covers a lot of territory. Even plants that LOOK good can be losing out on an extreme measure of potential; and in plants, lost potential can never be regained under ANY circumstances. Notching is definitely a good way to get some growth on the lower branches. All the best!Thank you SO much for all the great info!! It’s been awhile and i just haven’t seen new leaves growing from the top.Hi! I rinsed all outer soil off and got probably 30% of soil off the main root ball and loosens as much as I could with fingers. It is in a southeastern window and does ok but could use more light I’m sure because there is quite a bit of space between the leaves in places. Pruning down closer to the fork may mean you’ll have a short stubby tree temporarily, but keep in mind that pruning does encourage branching. Pinching doesn’t necessarily speed up growth and its normal for fiddles to grow in ‘bursts’, so if you haven’t seen any new leaves for a little while, that’s ok.I bought my first FLT about a week ago at Home Depot and i love it. My question is regarding notching & exactly where on the trunk I should try it. This should redistribute the growth hormone and hopefully you’ll see some growth on the other branches.Hey! The energy it takes to regenerate roots might have been put toward an increase in the plant's mass. Couple this natural rhythm of the plant with the fact you were waiting for the soil to dry down, which means that root function was probably regaining efficiency with each passing day, and you can see how the pieces of the puzzle fit together. Fiddles generally go through ‘bursts’ of growth, and its normal for them to take a while to grow especially after being brought into a new environment. I’m a little confused about pinching and how often we can do it. I have a question about the leaves that were on it when it was purchased. It is common for the top growing bud to be brown and crispy, so I wouldn’t worry about that, it sounds normal. Make sure the plant is getting lots of light and a regular fertilizer for the best chance of multiple branching and strong, healthy trunks! I purchased “fiddle leaf fig” fertilizer thru Amazon. So for the best chance of activating multiple dormant buds, you’ll want to target a section on your FLF that has buds close together. !Hey Jessica! Occasionally it can be traced entirely to growers watering with their own version of enhanced frequency; more often, it's the result of a poor soil that simply does not allow the grower to water correctly w/o the plant paying a tax in the form of diminished root health because the soil remains saturated long enough to have attained the age of majority. I have tried previously with no success but I think it was not cutting deep enough and plant not healthy.I am based in Brisbane so hoping to see some growth when spring sets on..Hey Auri, the best time to notch is always around mid spring as this is when the plant should have the most energy stored, is actively growing and should give you the best chance of success Goodmorning Emily, my FLF has mostly Drooping leaves. I plucked the top bud of the tree a few months back and there have been 2 new leaves that have grown from it. The spots are not related to a biotic pathogen or high/low light levels, and don't look like a manifestation of over-watering, under-watering, or a high level of dissolved solids (salts) in the soil solution. In the last 2 years his growth has slowed a lot and he has pale leaves. No brown spots. Is it possible to do this? Although its best to try multiple notches, in all different places, as notching doesn’t have a 100% success rate. Would you recommend that I pinch off the top?Hey Amanda, it’s normal for the top bud to be covered in a sheath which appears brown and crispy. Any possibility that a new branch would grow if I cut off the 6″ dried up branch? )With my propagated babies, they grow quite thin trunks and then often only have leaves up the top or bottom. How cool of air can an FLF tolerate at night? I use soils that hold no (or nearly no) excess (perched) water. Read this A Fiddle Leaf Fig struggling to find nutrients may not respond as well to pinching, notching or pruning. Then, using a 'tell' as an indicator of when it's appropriate to water to put a polish on what you practice. Any tips on how to get more than one branch growing back. They bend backwards and become convex when not getting enough. I can send you photos to show you where I’m cutting (very close to multiple dormant buds) xHey Michelle! August 27, 2019 at 8:34 am. There are 3 trunks. Root congestion wouldn't be a physiologic cause of wilting, but grower error consisting of failure to adjust watering practices to ensure the entire soil mass is moistened when you water is a problem. I’ve got a FLF that nearly bit the dust shorty after I bought it…almost all of the leaves fell off! The best advice I could give with pruning your plant is to keep in mind how you’d like it to look in the long term. There are a few dormant brown buds on the side of the trunk, right below those? I want to know what should I do next.,I got a pot for it but It will need more soil.
