Thats it! The fertilizer! I know a couple of things you all have mentioned has played a factor to this plants issues, but the fertilizer is what I had not remembered. Bout 2 weeks ago I gave some petunias some left over fertilizer as to not trash it, i was trying to organize my new hobby anyways i made the mistake of giving some to the persian shield i thought better and still did it.. . The reason i feel this is his biggest issue is i really do know the plant pretty well i think we're close lol but seriously he had a light problem i fixed it, he seemed happy with the light now even some color is looking better a little.. and i had some soil issue prior to all of this and i fixed that soil and its great now and drying well.. Now he was still browning im calling it and id never seen any browning like that on him. I never gave him fertilizer but once before that and it was just a few weeks prior. I really feel thats his issues. Hopefully the feterlizer will leave the soil before all his leaves have all turned brown Im going to add a pic and show you all where i have placed the persian shield now.. and you can see he dose look happier i think.
Also I wanted to clear up any confusion i caused, this persian shield we are speaking of now is my mamma plant i propagated some of her and lost all those pieces. I was speaking of those in prior comments . .. what happened it seems is . I rooted in water. They root well i put them in soil they grew and took root in to the soil with in 2 weeks ish with in the following 2 weeks they started to die from the top of the plant to the bottom of the plant. Losing leaves one at a time I found that odd that it died from top down?? but other wise i dont know what happened. They were all doing so very well. Then not!

Thanks everyone for all your help ill keep everyone posted on persian shield. Hopefully we can get him back to health.
Im going to start spaying him too . He is always dry. So i think thats a must do. i got a little scared watering him too much until i got a good set up inside for him. I can give him proper water now without worry of mold or rotting roots.. I got 2 fans for good air because the air is one thing i do know caused me some past issues. Maybe the death of my persian shields too.. long story short those propagated persian shields had a lack of air I think....
Ok i will try to stop rambling. Thanks for all of your help everyone! ! Thanks a million! !
