For the best results grow the tree in the brightest location in your home and if possible augment the room illumination with artificial light to keeping the tree healthy and vigorous. All figs appreciate even moisture at the roots. Allow the soil surface to dry a bit before watering again. Roots kept constantly wet will rot. Use any well draining bonsai soil, but avoid soils that stay wet for days at a time.

TIPS
Soil for Potted Plants
Plants should be grown in fertilised potting mix. Make or buy a fertilised mix which consist of coco peat moss or coconut fibre (coir), vermiculite or perlite, compost and other ingredients. A lightweight soil for potted plants needs to provide good drainage, hold moisture, and give roots room to grow.
Light Requirements
All plants depend on light for their survival, and making sure your potted plants get the right amount of light is key to keeping them happy. For both indoor and outdoor containers, group plants with similar light requirements. Don't mix shade lovers with sun lovers in a single pot; one or both of them will be unhappy, depending on where you place the pot.
