Browning leaves

Any idea what might be the problem? Could it be from cold? I moved not long ago my ficus into balcony and we had a few nights where temperature dropped a little. Nothing else changed. Also sprayed a few times with water(i know it does nothing but i like doing it might be water damage?) Any idea? Maybe someone had the same happen?

Does it get regular water mine started to turn yellow when I forgot about her and she was dry. I also had her too close to my light once but they got more dry and crispy when that happened.

@Michelle5986 i Don't think its watering its semi regular, 2-4 day difference but because i always check soil.It also could be lack of fertilizer but i have never heard anyone having problem like this with lack of fertilizer? Also could be pests but never heard of this kind of problem.

Spider mites can make the leaves turn yellow if they are sucking all the nutrients from them I would check for webbing under levels and if that’s not it I do fertilize mine once a month sometimes more just depends really

I had to leave a FICA when I moved that was absolutely beautiful with shiny leaves and grew to be about 8 feet tall. I had mine outside and brought in in front of a window south facing in the winter. It had good drainage, and I drenched it once a week until it poured out the bottom. They like the sun. It looks dry to me. Look at the back of the leaves and make sure there’s no red spider or aphids.
