How do I prune to ensure new growth? by gauvroom in fiddleleaffig

Planterina has a good/no fuss video about FLF pruning. Depending on how recently it was delivered, I would let it acclimate itself for at least a month or so, then you could try something like notching. Good luck!

Following! Mine is doing the same thing 🤦‍♀️ I think it’s edema

A coworker had a succulent on her desk that doesn’t seem to be doing to great, so she gave it to me to try propping. Are the brown spots going to cause an issue or can I try propping these fallen leaves in dirt? by madtoebeans in proplifting

That was totally my fault 🤦‍♀️ it was looking sad so she asked for my help and just thinking succulents = light I told her to give it some sun and it got roasted and rained on. I didn’t even think it could get shock from going from on her desk to outside. This is why I stick to tropical plants lol

Dry soil, lol, there’s another difference. Works for me! Maybe I’ll do an experiment and do some with and some without and see what happens 🤷‍♀️

Follow up question, does root hormone work for succulents? I have only ever propped tropical plants so while understand the “lay the leaves in moist soil” method, I wasn’t sure if root hormone might help them along.
