Cultural or environmental conditions can also lead to browning on bambooplants. Heat – Too much heat or direct sunlight may be the reason for a browning bamboo plant, as most bamboo varieties prefer shade or partial sunlight. Water – Both under- and over-watering can cause a bamboo with brown tips.
Lack of humidity
The yellowing is caused by the chlorine in your tap water. Need to use bottle water. Let your tap water sit for 12-24 hours before using.
The brown tips could mean a number of things, get non-chlorinated water instead of tap water, maybe too much sun or too little, try moving it to another location.
