This is my mass cane plant she has been GOING through it lately. And I'm not sure why she's got super crunchy brown leaves and I've watered her. Any tips, in afraid she's too far gone.

It definitely looks like a watering issue. Was she getting enough humidity? Direct sun? Not enough humidity can create dry leaves as well as sun burn. I would check her roots, cut off any unhealthy ones and repot in well draining soil.

I had a cane with 2 stalks and it was beautiful; then I used a rag with a little olive oil to clean the leaves w/o knowing it was NOT good trying to shine the leaves. All the foliage died 😭. I removed all the stem stubs, scored the stalks and continued to water when dry. After what seems like forever (maybe a couple of months) I got signs of new growth! 😍. It has been a long journey but I am determined to grow my baby back. The moral is, don’t give up!

Well draining soil? Would a tropical soil mix work?

Yes it would but you don’t have to go through hoops to get that. I use a blended potting soil and add perlite. It works just fine.

I have a tropical mix with lava rock but feel it's getting to wet when I bottom water
