My figs leaves are turning yellow and dropping off. Whats wrong?
A. If you also notice reddish-brown spots, I would suspect fig leaf rust. There is no cure for it except sanitation. Pick up fallen leaves immediately and burn them. Spray new growth with Bordeaux mixture to prevent infection. If there are no spots, your figs are probably too dry. They need more water, more regularly. Figs do not like to dry out.
