I’ve tried so many times with this plant. Higher humidity, fertilize every watering. Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong??

    Have you checked the roots? When I’ve overwatered the roots start rotting and the leaves turn yellow and fall off. If the soil is really moist, I recommend getting it into new soil and changing your water frequency and amount

    It hard to reverse the damage on these when overwatering has occurred. I agree to check the roots and clean any that are salvageable in a mix of peroxide and water. Repot and allow the soil to completely dry between waterings. As for fertilizer, once a month in spring and summer.

    I've struggled with mine with doing the same thing. I agree with the above. Unpot, trim away all yellow/dying leaves...But, also check the leaves thoroughly. I ended up finding thrips on mine. So, I isolated it and placed a couple of the remaining healthy stalks in a water/leca set up - basically as a propagation to save it. It's still a battle with thrips, but it has been doing better.

    Maybe too much fertilizer?

    You might test your water; it may be sensitive to some mineral or chemical in it
