Not even humidity possibly depending on where you live and could be over or under watered spider plants actually like to be alil dry between watering

Also the pot for it is alittle to big they love to be somewhat root bound bc they like extra oxygen in the soil

I started adding API stress coat to my watering can for this exact reason. Haven’t had a brown tip since

I believe you have to mist spider plants about every sixth day to avoid brown tips
