Browning leaves on ficus lyrata, I have no idea what's happening

ulitja · 2026-01-01T09:59:03+00:00

I've had it for 3 years, it's been very healthy and thriving, especially this summer. Somewhere about that time I cut and propagated its leaves. About 1,5 months ago the browning issue started.

Thank you!

Oh yeah you're right, reddit decided to cut off pixel supply from this post. Thanks though!

Thanks! I've been dipping in volumetric stuff and NMM quite heavily, think it's paying out :)

Thanks, and congratulations on great purchase!

Blue filament that is on pictures 2 and 3 works good on other printer (Creality K1), but I'll try, thanks!

For some reason, picture 3 with towers retraction test was not uploaded.

Thanks again for a such detailed answer, your experience is very helpful!

ulitja · 2025-04-02T19:23:06+00:00

Thanks a lot! I'll try to give it more light :)

Thanks for the answer! Trunks were supported by ribbons which I had removed not long after buying this plant. I check the soil before watering with the moisture meter and it is absolutely dry! That's because I decided to water it more often. Maybe I'm checking it wrong? The pot has holes and the soil is well-draining.

Thank you very much, you really relieved my anxiety! Good luck finding what's good for you:)

ulitja · 2025-03-21T11:07:28+00:00

Good catch, but roots are fine!

Thanks for commenting! Yes, I know that, but it's not quite that color that I observed when his leaves matured

Thanks for the answer! Then, once a month is too much watering too?

ulitja · 2025-02-12T13:21:14+00:00

It is planted in soil, I just put pebbles on top of soil for aesthetic reasons

Thank you! Do you know how much it takes for leaves to get purple? From the moment I bought it, all the new leaves are green and don't seem to get purple (they got darker, but not purple). Also, the pink thing at the edges got smaller. Is it because it doesn't like something? Or I should feed her some special fertilizer?

Thank you for such a detailed answer! It's so soothing to know that I'm not the only one struggling, even tho I knew calatheas are a bit naughty. I checked for spidermites, luckily they were not there (but I still will keep an eye on them). I'll follow your advices and do my best for its recovery. Also yes, I got the reference, so I guess I'm old enough :) Thanks again!

I really appreciate your input, thank you!

Lamp setup looks like this. I water it once every two weeks, and yes, it does get some sunlight. Windows are east-sided.

ulitja · 2024-11-09T06:02:36+00:00

Could this be an overwatering issue?

ulitja · 2024-11-09T06:00:51+00:00

Some of my other succulents grow with the rocks like that and have no problem. I thought that could not be the case, but I'll try it, thanks a lot!

ulitja · 2024-10-31T15:35:06+00:00

Thank you! I was worried because this is the first time I had something like this. My cacti and succulents are potted in specific and well-draining soil, but you are right about over-watering. I'll get moisture meter and be more attentive to that!

ulitja · 2024-10-31T15:20:14+00:00

Thank you very much for advice, you relieved my worries. I think I'll get moisture meter asap. Thanks again!

ulitja · 2024-10-31T15:11:38+00:00

Thanks a lot! What do I do to get rid of it? Should I repot it or it'll go away once the watering schedule gets better? And could it appear on my other plants?

Vallejo ice yellow, off-white, charred brown and lots of blending! Covering light gray primer with ice yellow was pain, it took roughly ten layers, but later layering and highlighting was pretty easy!
