# Is this anything I should be concerned about? The ends of the leaves…

_Publié par lennie le 2025-07-20_

Is this anything I should be concerned about? The ends of the leaves are turning yellow-ish brown and I don’t believe it’s from the sun.

I keep my Alocasia in a well-lit room but away from direct sunlight. Is it from overwatering?

Could be from  
Inconsistent watering and/or humidity

That may be the case. Thank you!

I have just started using self watering planters and making some DIY ones for free and it’s been a game changer for my calathea

#### lennie ha respondido el 2025-07-20

oh, that’s pretty cool! I might have to invest in something like that

If you don’t mind the look, I made these for free! The antherium came w the spot on the top but the new leaf and other one popping out are good!

Needs misting/higher humidity

#### lennie ha respondido el 2025-07-21

I think this might be the case! I think the air is too dry for my Alocasia

#### Wolfen 🐺 ha respondido el 2025-07-21

The brown tips is usually the give away. Mine that are more sensitive i mist 1-2x a day. And/or have near the humidifier

#### lennie ha respondido el 2025-07-21

Thanks for the advice! I misted most of my plants this morning, and let them sit by the window with indirect sunlight
