'Fluxshing' the pots every now and then with LOTS of water will help, but a change of the brand (ask on the list which are best) is better. Good Luck, Julius +More >>I have had problems with some of my variegated plants and rarer of my aroids. They seem to produce a new leaf and soon afterwards the leaf begins to turn a brown at no particular area. As soon as a new leaf emerges the one that was turning brown falls off. I believe it has to do with water but am not sure. The area that is brown seems to be moist. I try not to overwater. I would appreciate any help, Thanks, Albert
