Palm Brown Tips: Overwatering and Low Light Fixes

Brown, dry upper leaves with new growth at base = classic overwatering and/or insufficient light.

Watering Fix

  • Empty tray 30 min after watering.
  • Let soil dry well between waterings (skewer test: dry 1 inch down).
  • Cut frequency and volume.

Light Fix

Most palms need bright light. Move to sunniest window. Rotate for even growth.

Root Health

Wet soil = root rot = brown tips. Dry cycles = root respiration = green leaves.

Adjust both, and your palm will recover.
