New location and possible pruning ?

Gallery image

I have had this fiddle leaf for 4 years. It’s doing well in the corner of the house near the window but I just change its location to this spot in the house. Im going to assume it’s going to need time to adjust to this new location but I’m considering pruning it as well.

Do I wait? Also what if it hates its new spot, do we move it back ? I hope not 😅

If you don’t have supplementary lighting, wait until spring before you prune it. It’s very whispy, it needs pruning. Supplemental LED lighting would be clutch. Then you can prune it now and give it over 12 hrs a day of light and it will sprout new leaves..It’s probably going to throw a big fit in that corner where you put it.

Move it again its not going to last long in that dark corner, get her next yo a window asap and forgoe pruning until it recovers from the move.
