My fiddle leaf fig went from 3 leaves to 15 after I moved it 4 feet away from the window
It was in a drafty spot in my Chicago apartment for a year and barely grew. Giving it bright, indirect light instead of direct sun made it explode in about 5 months.

Wow, that's such a familiar struggle (and win!).

Mine did the same thing when I moved it from a south-facing window to a spot with filtered light. The leaves were getting scorched and it just stopped putting out new growth. A few feet back from the glass made all the difference. Now it pushes out a new leaf every couple of weeks like clockwork.
