I recently inherited 5 plants from a friend, they were root bound in 1g pots, I think a little bit neglected until I got them. I don't know exactly what was done to them before I got them, potted in pro-mix. They were watered before they were brought to me, I think plain RO water.
I repotted all 5 to 15g pots, promix soil. Gave a good watering with RO water, treated with Cal mag, PH 5.8. My practice is to water heavy, then let dry almost completely short of wilting. Takes usually about 5 days to get to this point. They have been in my room about 5 days, 2 days in the new pots.
I was thinking cal/mg deficiency, not sure if they guy who gave them to me was bothering to treat his RO water, I think he was planning on letting these just die before I got them. Might just be overall neglect and will take a bit longer to bounce back. But the leaves with the brown spots and edges are quite dry almost crumbly to the touch.
