For those watching, there must be a node for it to put out roots, plz dont just cut off a healthy leaf & pop it in water bcuz a leaf w/o a node will die & where u cut that leaf a new leaf will never grow back. Its disheartening when I see short videos that don’t include the details or the before & after- sure this person chopped their fiddle & popped it in water, but did they have success? By the looks of the fiddle next to it, I’d guess maybe not. as the Ficus lyrata can be very finicky & the type of pruning you do is dependent upon many variables, the most important factors include: Age, overall health,season & lighting.
Hi Alli, thank you for your message 🙂 I guess it's not easy to see in the video, this wasn't a leaf cutting, but a top cutting (I cut off the top of the plant - stem with a node). But you made an excellent point. A leaf without a node will not propagate. I see many people trying, and a leaf will actually grow roots, which makes people think it will grow leaves, but that can't happen because there are no cells capable of producing new growth in a leaf 🙂 I try not to create videos that dont show results, but this was a very old video of mine. Newer videos usually include results
Hi, thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately, plant diagnosis is not always quick and easy. There are situations where it’s possible to diagnose a problem quickly. But a lot of cases are more complex, and require photos and additional information. For example, brown leaf patches can be caused by overwatering, underwatering, overfertilizing, fungal disease, compacted soil…To properly diagnose it, I would need quite a bit of information from you :) Info on the care the plant is receiving (light, watering, fertilizing…) as well as the environment it’s in. Due to the number of messages I receive every day and the complexity of questions like this I am unfortunately unable to help everyone. However, I wrote an article about the most common Fiddle Leaf Fig problems and how to treat them. I hope this can help you: www.mrhouseplant.com/blog/fiddle-leaf-fig-problems/ Good luck! 😊
Only water when the soil is fully dry and give plenty of direct light. I also wrote a detailed post on fiddle leaf fig care: www.mrhouseplant.com/blog/fiddle-leaf-fig-care-101-everything-you-need-to-know/

At best you can get a leaf with some roots that never grows, but doesn't die.
I have a huge fiddle leaf tree. I want to try this😮
Do it 🙂
Don't forget to dust the bottom of it with cinnamon to encourage root growth.
Cinnamon doesn't promote root growth....it does however prevent bacteria growth.
Lovely I am also trying like this way let's see....❤❤😊😊
Wow thanks so much for the tips
Any time :)
I need help with my plant, I have done everything and still not good. See 0:26 picture, I would love you advice
