Drama Queen Post Tantrum 🤞

For the ones here going through it with their FLF. Be persistent, provide stability, be patient and hope for the best.

1st 7/1/26 I thought I was Gods favorite.. the girl was doing amazing 💁‍♀️

2nd 7/15/26 Tantrum began a few weeks post repot and post feed. I thought shed be a skinny queen the way she dropped over a dozen leaves basically over night. 🫪

3rd 8/15/26 Now a month after the tantrum began, things are finally looking up. Don’t give up on your FLF, they’re really just dramatic AF! 🤦‍♀️

Side note: Don’t be fooled by her good side, her canopy is blasting with leaves but there is definitely a noticeable amount of stem now visible. She dropped A LOT of leaves, and some are still yellow which I imagine will be drooped once shes done talking back nutrients.

4th 8/15/26 Her not so good side, because we like to keep it real. 😏

What is going on? Pls help me fix this..

First picture was Sunday second was Tuesday and third is today Wednesday. Some of the spots have gotten larger or smudged. I know these are finicky with water on the leaves, so I’ve recently started bottom watering. I don’t leave it in the water longer than a few minutes since its so small. What is this and how do I bring it back to its original glory before any of this? 😭

2 Weeks difference.. any recommendations?

I’ve had my FLF for a little over a year. It was a walmart costa farms impulse purchase and I had no clue what to do with her then.

Last summer her leaves scorched and I switched her location and she improved. A few months later in the fall, I repotted her and she threw a fit and lost a few leaves. She had been doing amazing this year and acclimated well to the indoor to outdoor transition this spring.

I repotted her a month ago and she continued to do well after that. Yesterday and almost overnight an entire month after repot she’s not looking great. Any ideas? Tips tricks?
