My propagated fiddle leaf fig has been a twig for three years now, lmao. On one hand, I love the patience of natural growth, but on the other, I'm tempted to try all the hacks. Slow growers or speed enthusiasts, where do you land?

Three-year twig? Classic impatience culture. @paigem45's hack valid.

Disagree, some plants just thrive on neglect, right?

Man, a three-year twig situation is brutal, I've been there. Patience is a virtue until you're staring at the same stick for what feels like forever. I finally gave in and tried a few things, and what actually worked was consistent warmth and light. These guys are so finicky, they need that steady environment to kick into gear. A regular feeding schedule with a balanced fertilizer made a visible difference within months. Now I'm all for strategic interventions, because sometimes nature needs a little nudge.
