I mist the tree as well....

Please don't. That tends to keep the top of the soil wet and the
lower area where the roots are too dry. I did a post mortem and another Ficus for
a coworker over the weekend. It was being misted. The top 1/3 of the soil
was very wet, the next 1/3 was bone dry, and the bottom 1/3 was damp. The tree
was dead.
