Seed
My Fukien Tea tree's leaves have suddenly started turning brown and falling off and the leaves that are still green look wilted. This started about 4 days ago when I noticed her leaves looking sad, so naturally I watered her as that usually does the trick. However this time the leaves started turning crispy brown and falling off.
Since this has started, I haven't watered her. I also cleaned her humidity tray as I noticed a few very small microscopic bugs in the water (I have had this issue before but it never affected her much).
Her set up is inside, with a grow light as it is winter and little sun. I keep the temperature around 70 Fahrenheit and the humidity is around 40% inside my house.
-A few things to note:
A cold front recently came in dropping outside temps to around 15 Fahrenheit (thinking it may be the cold).
I have also done some research and am thinking the grow light could be scorching the leaves as it is mainly on the side the light hits...however, that does not account for the wilting leaves.
Her soil also does not feel oversaturated.
I have groomed off majority of the dead leaves in the photos.
**I have had this tree for over about 2 years and had this set up for almost 5/6 months
