Was given this ficus. They kind if left it grow without pruning as you can see. Leggy but still sprouts new leaves. They wagered and fertilized it but I don't think they did enough. I'm debating cutting back to last leaves and fertilizing to see if I can get it to harden up a bit. Thoughts?

Welcome to the site!

Where do you live? I ask because care suggestions will change based on your location.

Whoops! Haha. I'm in the Mid-Atlantic. Northeastern Pennsylvania to be exact. I meant to put that but it skipped my mind.

You can add your location to your profile, then people won't need to read through the thread to know where you are. Just keep it healthy over the winter indoors, as much as light as possible. When it's outside this spring/summer and growing vigorously, you can decide what you want to do with it. Welcome!
