My first plant is this ficus nerifolia that I've had for a year. I'm not really sure what to do with it, if anything, since it seems younger than the typical trees that get styled and all that. Over the past year, it's grown some new leaves, but the trunk and overall height look about the same as when I got it (I don't have great "before" pics).
It's also been dropping leaves the past week . I had a run in with fungus gnats in my building, so I'm slightly worried... Also not sure why some leaves are red.

- Indoors, using a $30 LED light for the past 6 months (bad lighting, can't do outdoors)
- Soak pot for ~30 mins when it feels light, maybe once a week or so
- Fertilize once a month May–Sept
- Neem oil spritz once or twice a day for the past week
- Temp/hum ~76 F, 50% RH average
- Same pot as when I got it
