The new leaves didnt brown and now that I have been watering them that way for some time the issue has cleared up. Now that I have Banana plants, I notice that the very ends of the leaves turn brown like the dragon trees did. Not as much, but the plants are much different size. Would switching the water for the bananas stop the leaf ends from browing or do they just do that? I would switch now but the logistics of buying and storing the amount of water my Bananas use is not what I want to do until I know its going to be beneficial.
