This big boy came home three weeks ago happy and healthy. I took it out of the plastic pot and put in this terracotta. Now all the leaves are drooping and yellowing. Help! What does it want from me?

Less water
You probably severely stressed it out, repotting it so soon after bringing it home is a really, really bad idea next time. Give it at least a month to acclimate, then repot it. It’ll live, but it’s most likely going to drop all of those yellowing leaves at least.
Trauma from repotting so soon. They don’t like that. Give it some time. Prune it way back and don’t forget to fertilize weekly in summer growing season. Don’t worry it will come back
Genuine question: is it normal to have so many roots sticking out of the soil?
Your plant is burnt due to excess light. Prune those leaves or the edible leaves will be affected.My plant had same kind of problem how did I care I wrote my [[page]](https://myindoorplants.com/2023/09/20/fiddle-leaf-fig-care/)
How often do you water it？l suggest watering it once every 10-14days..must be thoroughly every time..and don’t keep excess water in saucer after watering,because this water can cause root rot
