I recently purchased a coconut palm tree and i'm keeping it inside. The
care card that came w/ it is a bit worn so i can't see how to take care of
it. I've been reading online about how much to water it, and it appears
that you don't water it a whole lot. I believe i have overwatered it
because the soil was very wet for a while, like it wasn't drinking the
water. Since then i've stopped watering it and let the soil dry out a
bit.
However, the leaves have started to turn brown. Is there anything i can
do
to save it? I placed it in the warmest room in my apartment far from a
large window, so it gets the light from it, but not the cold. i also read
that they like nutrients once a month. Is this a bad idea while i try to
recover my palm?


That tree needs more sun- ambient room light is never going to be enough.
That and keeping the humidity up are your priorities IMO.
