Looks like root rot. Could be the new soil is too wet. Can you make sure there's no standing water in the soil? I always one 1 part cactus soil to 2 parts potting soil in my indoor plants to help with airflow.

Wish I could help but ....

Were you able to fix it?

Fiddle leaf figs do not like to be moved to a new location or repotted while dormant in winter. You will likely see some stress resulting in different ways so I would move it back to its original spot at least even if repotted. Avoid fertilizing or overwatering while it adjusts. Grab a moisture meter and make sure that little guy really dries out for a couple weeks. You may lose leaves but don’t panic and mess with it again while it recovwea

increase drainage in the pot. also a little too late to say this but don't disturb the root ball of a fiddle leaf.

Hello folks, I’m after some advice please. I recently bought a couple of indoor plants and added to the cart what I think is a very expensive bottle of natural mist to use on the leaves. All organic, glass bottle etc. supposed to use it 2-3 times per week but 2 weeks in I’m down to half a bottle and it was £15 (approx $20). I understand that I need to nurture the plants but it strikes me as a rather expensive mist. Is there anything you’d recommend I can use instead? Thanks.
