Hello!

I was gifted a triangle ficus two years ago and it has done very well. There are 6-7 stems in a well-drained pot. The plant is well over 7' tall and receives ample light in the window. I check the soil every 7-10 days and water only when it is dry.

A week or two ago, I noticed some yellowing on the leaves, as well some curling and brown spots on the backs of a few. I checked the soil and it's damp even though it's been awhile since I watered. The humidity in my house is pretty stable. I live in LA so it's actually driest during the summer months. The affected leaves do seem limited to one or two sides and near the base, but the curling is occurring throughout. I've held back on watering until I get some advice, and I'm attaching some photos hoping that could help.

What could be going on? Might the plant need more humidity or water? The temps have dropped here and it's near a window. Could the chill of the window be affecting the plant; that's never been an issue before.

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.
