I watered with distilled water but not sure why the edges are browning and crisping. Repotted like 2 weeks ago after getting from Lowe’s. It’s kept inside with light from the window as you can see

Did it come with the brown spot and is the brown a spot wet or dry

No it didn’t come with it. They all starting to brown crispy edges that are dry

Probably a humidity issue! they’ll brown and crinkle up if it’s too dry. Try adding a pebble tray or a humidifier if you have one!

I agree with kades you could also get a fine mister and give it a mist every few days
