Hi,
I bought a small Fiddle Leaf Fig plant in January. I repotted it and in ten months it has grown double it's height with about a dozen new leaves and three more on the way. But the leaves though are all tiny (less than a quarter of the size of the leaves of another F. lyrata plant I've just purchased), and do not fully open from the stem.

I have kept it on my balcony and it gets some morning and full afternoon sun, and watered regularly and fed with organic matter (tea/coffee grounds, banana peels, crushed egg shells etc). Why won't the leaves grow outward and as large as they should? Any ideas on what I need to do to achieve this? Thanks.
