#Dropping leaves, acclamation?
I got this plant #rubber plant) a few weeks ago. I was expecting to see some signs of #stress as it acclimates to my home.
Of course, now I'm seeing signs of stress, I'm concerned if it's reacting to my #care?
I didn't #water it for the first week or so. Then I added maybe 40ml water around the pot edges. I checked the soil a week later (yesterday) and it was dry top 2 inches so I did the same.
Leaves have (this week) been dropping. They are tinged #yellow.
Is this because I watered?
Is it due to the #cold temperatures we've had recently? (It's position never got colder than 15c for longer than a few hours)

Rubber plant likes plenty of bright indirect light. 4 m to light is too far away., that's why the leaves are changing the colour to yellow. Move the plant 0.5 m from the window. The best window is the one facing East, the second best facing West (bright indirect light).
Also, could you check carefully what this is? If it has legs, then it is a pest?
