Hello,
I have a rubber plant that is in need of help! I purchased it at the beginning of the summer from a little grocery store where it was outdoors in full sun for most of the day. It was really full and had a variety of virbrantly colored leaves. Dark Green, purple, etc.
It dropped a lot of leaves when I got it home which I thought was normal since I don't get tons of light. I bought this plant though because I was told that these plants don't like a lot of light...
For about a month, I have been moving it outdoors during the day where it gets a lot of sun for a few hours because the amount of leaves it dropped was startling, and this seemed to help for a bit.
Now, however, the plant is very dull in color - light green leaves, muddy yellow leaves. I used some plant food thinking it needed nitrogen, and this seems like it helped a bit, but the leaves are still really droopy and it looses at least one leaf every other day.
It's in a plastic pot that looks to be the right size, not too big, not too small. Also, the soil occasionally sprouts little button mushrooms that I simply pluck out. Here is a picture of it.
Thank you for any tips or help you can offer!
