Fixing Brown Leaf Tips on Houseplants

Tip Burn = Low Humidity

Most indoor plants come from tropical zones (60‑90% humidity). Heated homes in winter often drop below 15%. The fix: raise humidity around the plant.

Effective Solutions

• Humidifier: Most reliable.
• Group plants: Creates a humid microclimate.
• Pebble tray: Pots on wet gravel (water below pot bottoms).
• Misting: Daily helps but less consistent.
• Small ice‑cube trays with water work in a pinch.

Don’t let pots sit in water—roots will rot.
