# My alocasia isn’t doing well and idk what’s wrong. It has these brown…

_Posted by ccalroe on 2024-02-18_

My alocasia isn’t doing well and idk what’s wrong. It has these brown spots on the leaves. I actually had another leaf that I cut off about two weeks aho that had this issue. Can anyone help me figure out what’s wrong and recommendation on how to cure it.

Brown tips are generally caused by too much sunlight. Easy to fix though! Cut of the brown tips and postion further from the window! Tho should allow new growth ! Hope this helps ❤️
