It could be the water you are using is glorious in brackish content (Not table salt a moment ago minerals that remain when the water is evaporated off) The brackish is picked up by the roots with the river and then is departed behind within the plant. Do you have white crusty stuff at the dampen line?
To prevent saline poisoning in soil-less plants do not basically add river always translation the water by overflowing it contained by a sink. Plants that exhibit these same brown tips in soil can be placed surrounded by a large sink or tub full up with dampen to the soil line for a couple of hours up to that time the water is drained. As this treatment will also remove the fertilizer from the soil nurture with the subsequent watering.
Potted Plants can handle a absolute amount of salt but once the tips turn brown the tips are departed. they can be trimmed with a sharp double act of scissors to look better and with concern the new leaves will not draw from the same saline poisoning. The plant it self is not in vulnerability since there is still plenty of fern surface.
