Attached are 2 images showing an unknown fig tree that my friend gave me in June from air layered in April) Size is abt 4 ft tall potted in 5 gal bucket. Everything look great to me except 2 fruits suddenly dropped off in 4 days. I weighted and they were about 58 grams or 80% ripen. I water it daily. Does anyone know why this happened as I am afraid the others will drop off accordingly. |

Dropped fruit is usually due to some form of stress; water issue, sudden temp changes, etc. |
