My mom has a rubber tree she has had for four years now and it's about to take over her house. She is wanting to plant it outside. My question is, will it survive being outside, and what does it take to care for it?
Rubber trees are only hardy to 30F. If it gets colder than that at all where you live, the tree cannot not be planted outside. You can keep it outside in a container in the summer though. If it is too large, you may want to consider pruning it: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/rubber-tree/prune-rubber-tree.htm

I have a rubber house plant and I just can't get it to grow in full blossom. It is about 2 1/2 - 3 feet tall, but does not have a lot of leaves. I feed the plant with Miracle Grow at least one a month in the summer, but not in the winter. How can I get this plant to grow with many leaves? I have the plant in a bedroom that does not get a lot of sunlight, but is near a window. Could I set it outside during the summer or leave it in and put it near another window? What shall I do to make it grow?

I have a rubber tree plant that has some brown spots on its leaves. This plant is 10 years old and I cut it back every year, so this is new growth.
Do you fertilize it regularly? It may be that the salt from the fertilizer has built up and the plant is getting a bit sick from it. Try repotting it with some fresh soil. While you are doing that, just check for root rot too. This is the less common reason for spotting on this plant.
What am I doing wrong that my rubber tree has large brown areas on some of its leaves?
There could be several reasons for this and it's often difficult to pinpoint the precise cause. Brown, dead spots on leaves are usually scorching, a sign that your plant is getting too much light. If this is not the case, look towards watering. Brown spots can also be due to a lack of watering. Fungus can be a cause as well, but this is more prevalent in overly moist plants.
