I'm a newcomer to gardening in general. Very invested in this fig tree. Bought it back in June (see pic one), when I made the gritty mix, pruned the roots and reported it. I use Dyna-grow, about a quarter to a half teaspoon per gallon, and water regularly. Was watering every other day or so but now it's cold (I'm in Boston) and I'm watering much less frequently.

The tree has flourished (see pic two)!! Thank you Al!!

Im about to leave on a two week vacation, and two things made me curious and concerned. In pic three, I show the new leaf that is having issues. Never seen this happen before. When the leaf was budding a stronger wind knocked the tree over, and I have assumed that is what damaged the new leaf. What should I do about this? I'm assuming the holes will never grow together.

Secondly, I have been noticing the brown edges of the leaves in pic four more since I recently rotated the plant. Are these cause for concern? Do they indicate anything I need to adjust? Or just light deprived, runty leaves?

Last thought- my tree (which is actually two trees) is looking a little rangey. I was thinking of letting it grow even more before pruning but maybe I should prune come spring. Any advice on supporting it and keeping it harmonious? Does it seem too big for its container already?? These are just things that run through my head.

I adore this forum and am grateful for any advice! Gritty mix has made me a successful gardener!!! It's amazing.
