My tree keeps shedding. Any idea why?

#OliveTree
They lose leaves in fall. Might need more light or water or fertilizer this time of year.
@TutorRutabaga52 Olive trees can sometime drop older leaves during seasonal transitions. Have you moved the tree recently, repotted it, or brought it indoors? Tagging @Costafarmsteam, would love to hear your insights as well. Thank you.
@Aikalovesphilos thanks! I had it shipped to me and repotted it, but didn’t anticipate so much leaf falling
All my olive trees are out in full sun and water twice a day here in Florida you could use a little milorganite as well I don't think it's getting enough light.
Olive trees are fantastic! They look great indoors, but they need time to adjust, and may lose many leaves in the process. They also need at least 6 to 8 hours of daily direct sun to thrive. They are also drought tolerant, so make sure to never overwater it.
@CostaFarmsTeam thank you, all! I don’t think the sunlight is enough. I may need grow lights
