So as to find the answer and save my dear plant I surfed the Internet looking for some useful information.

I was lucky to find people who had the same ficus benjamina problems. They advised me to flush the pot thoroughly with room temperature water. Then I had to wait for about 7-10 minutes.

After that I flushed the soil with water which, as they explained, removes salt build-up from the soil. When it stopped draining, I took the plant out of the pot and left it on a newspaper over night. The next day the plant was returned to the pot.

Before I watered it for the first time after the flush, I stuck a wood dowel into the soil. People told me that I can water my ficus only when the dowel comes out dry. So it did came out dry and I could give my precious a drink.

This procedure brought the plant back to life. So if you experience some problems and ask yourself “Why is my ficus benjamina dying?”, try this solution. Hopefully, it will help.
