A systemic pesticide may either need to "grow out" (it may be present in the foliage the plant has now, but won't be present in new growth) or may take months to lose its potency. I don't know. What species of cham do you have? If its not a species that tends to eat vegetation it may be OK. Just don't know. You might get some information whether its been treated systemically by calling Home Depot and asking for the source of their Ficus plants. Then call or email the grower. TELL them why you need to know, and if they can't help you say you will want a refund on a returned plant.
