@FreshSweetflag Unfortunately I believe that in this case you doing something good has turned into the reason your Ficus is going down hill. There are many different environmental factors determining how quickly or slowly soil in plants dries out. Therefore you can't really put plants on a "schedule" When the app tells you that your plant is ready to be watered you must check your plant to see if it's ready for a drink otherwise over-watering is a strong possibility. Ficus plants In particular like to dry out in between waterings so before you give it any water put your finger down into the soil. If it's moist at all snooze your plant by swiping left. The app will bring the plant back around in a few days for you to check it again. Once the top couple of inches of soil is dry then water it thoroughly! Until you can see water draining from the bottom of the pot then swipe right indicating that you have watered it. Since the app is run by Ai every time you interact it learns your plant. Eventually the watering schedule will become more accurate. ☺️
