Does anyone know why only a few leaves of my Kentia Palm have gone brown at the edges and the middle? A few more leaves have brown tips also.  
Have had for almost a year. Is situated under a window so no direct light on soil but some sunlight hits the leaves in the morning.  
Thank you!  
Issy

If it’s not an issue with over or under watering I’d try boosting the humidity and see if that helps! Try misting it a couple times a day or putting a pebble tray underneath it.
