My Philodendron White Wizard is browning a bit on the tips. Is this due to too much sun or not enough?  
It also by a window that opens a lot so it gets a lot of cold air bursts

Any white variegation is destined to brown. The key is high humidity, a watering routine, and lots of light

ohh thank you so much!

Of course :)!

Temperature matters but light/grow light and humidity are key!

SILICA!! These plants require LOTS of light, but not direct light too much light and the leaves will get burnt. I recommend a dedicated grow light 6000 lumens and up for these plants for 14 hours but adding silica in your watering routine will help decrease this in all variegated plants!!!! :))) highly highly recommend

ohh perfect thank you! I just added a grow light right above it, should I angle it so it’s not direct light? And I’ll look into silica!

As long as it’s not like 2 inches away it should be fine!

Amazon has it!
