What are common problems with Ginseng Ficus?
Overwatering and root rot are the most likely cause of problems in Ginseng Ficus, since they are sensitive to wet soil. The leaves may also appear to be curling or drooping. Less often, yellow leaves are caused by underwatering, nutrient deficiencies, or pests. If the leaves of your Ficus Ginseng are turning yellow, it may be due to under- or overwatering, root rot, too much sunlight, pest infestations, or nutrient deficiencies. We suggest reducing your watering frequency, moving the plant to a spot with indirect light, or repotting Ficus Ginseng in fresh, nutrient-rich soil.
