No positive but they may not be getting enough water. I would try bottom watering next time to ensure there aren’t any sections of the pot that are hydrophobic and not getting enough water. If they don’t perk up, could just cut them off if it’s just a couple of them.

Thanks for the input!!

looks like either under watering or hydrophobic soil that has limited the plant’s water uptake. could also be caused by dry air depending on the humidity in your house

What makes the soil hydrophobic?

if it’s mostly peat based, it’s because of the structure of the actual peat fibers. they have a specially shaped coating that repels water if there isn’t water already inside. over time, since peat is so dense, the soil can become compacted and repel water even more
