My Fiddle Leaf Fig Tree is Dying - PLEASE HELP

[MHH]

Had it for a year. Over the last 3 months it's been slowly developing these brown spots that are drying out the leaves.

A total of 6 leaves have fallen off and Im sure more will follow.

All the leaves that have fallen off have a brown stem.

Other leaves have stems that are turning brown that I think will fall off soon.

HOW I CARE FOR IT

• Water once a week
• About 2 cups of water (in the pics attached, tree hasn't been watered in about 7 days)
• Pot has drainage built into it
• Plant is in indirect sunlight
• Air in condo is dry so started recently misting leaves every 3 days

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thx!

It could be root rot, have you looked at the roots?

You are Definitely watering it waaaayyy too much. Cut back to once a month unless you live in a super dry area then once every 3\4 month. Watch what happens. also check out this video I made on soil. Could help.

Thanks for the info. Ive added pics of the soil and the pot it's in. I'm guessing the white stuff on the soil is rot?

Im still at a loss of what to do

Change the pot. Cut out the rot (White stuff). Those pots are known for doing that to the roots. They don't drain as well.

I agree with @JoeyGardening change the pot and give it more drainage and cut down on the watering, a lot of people kill their house plants because of it, because they don't know.
