Does anyone know why the tips and edges of the leaves are brown and crunchy? I think itâs a Japanese Birdâs nest fern. I have very little plant knowledge beyond the basics so feel free to dumb down any advice. Thanks in advance!

I'm a new plant mama so take this with a grain of salt, but one of the YT'ers I follow says if they are crunchy, is dry; if soft brown, it's overeatered. So I don't know if that's all plants, or the ones that he was talking about. I'll be interested in learning from others!!
2 gillningarThe crunchy brown spots are crunchy
0 gillningarIf youre not seeing pests, It might be a humidity issue. You could try misting regularly
2 gillningarI can try that. Thanks
0 gillningarI had this plant as well and it slowly died, I tried everything to help revive it and nothing worked, but I did read that if the tips turn brown itâs under watering.. but that could be wrong
0 gillningarYeah, I read the same thing about underwatering. But Iâm confused because Iâm water it exactly how often this app tells me to
0 gillningarThe app isn't fail safe unfortunately. And it's working off fed parameters. Most ferns prefer pretty high humidity to stay alive and happy, and just watering won't give that.
0 gillningarYeah that makes sense. Iâll try misting it
0 gillningarI just got a birdâs nest fern, it got brown tips so I stuck a small humidifier next to it, brown tips means itâs dry especially if itâs cold where you are and youâre running your heat, I also water it as the App suggest. Make sure it gets good indirect light, it needs light to thrive too, I have it by my east window and it gets good morning sun.
1 gillaItâs got indirect light from a nearby window.
