Hi! I recently got this plant from a friend who’s going travelling, it appeared sick when I got it but hasn’t gotten any better. I cut off the completely dead leaves but I’m pretty sure it has fungus which I’ve never dealt with before! The leaves are curling and powdery, and some edges are brown and dry. I know this plant needs lots of sun and water, but I don’t know what else to do. There’s a few new growths which I think is good, but I need help!

I’m thinking more humidity is needed here/ do u know what approx humidity you have in your setup?

It’s not very humid inside, but I’ve tried misting and it didn’t seem to help
