My plant is not even one year old, still in the original pot with the soil that came with the plant. Not pot bound soil is loose don't think it's deficiency. According to the article, looks like it doesn't get enough light and maybe I'm waiting too long between watering.wonder if soil deficency

Christmas Cactus(which always blooms at Thanksgiving) and African Violet in a sunny window.
I would check the humidity near it, as the humidity may be too low, you could mist the palm from time to time to raise the humidity around it. You said it is in the same pot that you bought it in a year ago if it has grown more than double the starting size it may need to be move to a slightly larger pot with some fresh potting mix. The brown tips maybe caused also by an accumulation of excess fertilizer in the soil and moving to the tips of the leaves and burning them. You can flush the excess fertilizer from the soil by taking the palm outside on a warm day and flushing the excess away with a large volume of clear water and letting the pot drain for a few hours before bring it back indoors. After doing this hold off on the regular watering schedule until the soil has dried to where it would be when you would normally water it. Good luck with your palm.Just read the attached article about growing cat Palms. Very helpful good stuff.
