Hi all,
I've got a fiddle leaf fig plant that I've had for about two years. She's suddenly getting some brown spots and little yellowing on a few of the leaves and for the life of me I can't figure out what the exact issue is. I've dealt with the little red spots on the tip of the leaves before which turned out to mean I was underwatering which was easily corrected. But these are large brown spots and newfound yellowing, which I've tried to identify through plant apps and research. I'm still not sure if it's root rot, overwatering, improper sun, or some other disease. A couple of leaves have fallen and I'm still not sure if that's from age or from this issue. One was a tiny leaf town at the bottom and the other was closer to the middle of the stalk.
Can anyone tell? I'm especially curious because all of the brown spots are in places where those leaves are constantly in the shade due to the leaves above them. (In my living room the main source of sunshine is a skylight so the light comes from directly above and some leaves are in permanent shade because of the leaves over them, the spots are seemingly on those leaves.)
This plant also holds onto water for dear life, though I swear I chose a well draining soil and there's a drainage hole in the pot.
Thanks in advance for any and all help!
