Well first of all, nothing wrong w sunlight but u have to axclimate a plant from outside to inside and vice versa. Whwt i think ur FLF needs most of all is humidity. It probably can use its own small plant humidifier (Amazon $10-15); use chopstick to check soil dryness from top to bottom & when it comes out clean (like a toothpick in a cake to check for doneness) pS if u wanna take plant out to balxony, thats fine but u need to do 1-2 hr/first 2 days and increase til its used to air change and do reverse when bringing back inside. I would make sure it got morning and late adternoon sun tho rather than ab entire day (depending on where u live) of sun beating down on it. Thats another great rhing about grow lights 12 hr/day isnt harmful like 12 hr/day of summer sunlight can be. Abd when ur enjoying the summer weather, it xan get away from u because it feels so good to u (esp id u have had hard winter or as we here in PA have had coldest & rainiest Spring in history!) renewal my behind!!! Mother Nature needsbto remember β€œApril showers bring May flowersβ€œ! Not drench PA!! Lol 🫢πŸͺ΄πŸŒΏ
Fiddle leaf figs can be finicky about where they are placed in a home. But this looks like it’s getting too much direct sunlight. Indirect or filtered sunlight would probably be better. You can remove the damaged leaves and see if it comes back in a less direct sunlit spot. Good luck!
