MacNCheese - - I mist with filtered water now but still sometimes water the plant with tap. "/ Yes, I use a humidity tray that I tend to fill with warm tap water.

Will - - Thank you for the tips on misting. Yes, it does feel good! =p

LorettaNJ - - Beauty Kim is b e a u t i f u l ! (: Thank you for sending me a photo as well as that blurb.


You all are wonderful! I'm beginning to think tap h2o is the problem here. The salts are what are probably making the tips burn, leaving water spots, and just drying out my plant in general. Now that I think we have a diagnosis, time to remedy. I've cut back on misting but when I do, I use filtered water. for the humidity tray and general watering I will start using filtered water (reverse osmosis to be exact). Question, when do you all recommend I cut back all the damaged foliage? I'm assuming once new healthy growth appears. . . ? Thanks again everyone!
