Dry, browning leaves can indicate a thirsty plant, but it’s also perfectly natural for the older leaves to die off as the plant grows. Yours likely just needs a more regular watering schedule. Water it when the top inch or so of soil has dried out completely—this could be every two weeks, every three weeks, or once a month depending on the humidity of your home, the consistency of the soil, and how porous the pot is.
To keep track of your waterings, try attaching a post-it note to the plant’s pot and writing down the date when you water.
