Help - indoor plant experts around?!

[Theantsgomarchingtwo]

Hello - I'm a first time plant novice - I bought a kentia palm in December from b&q - stuck it in our shady North facing living room (away from the window) watered it as instructed every two weeks sparingly. When we bought it - it had a few yellow spots now its covered in them. I've tried googling to no avail. I've moved the plant to our bathroom too see if the humidity helps but can any plnt expertis shed any light please?

Most of the plant looks healthy baring two or three stands of spotty leaves!

I'm no expert, but I also have one and it's a pernickety so and so.

I think I've finally found it a happy-ish place in a bright west facing room but away from the window. I water sparingly and mist the leaves occasionally (probably should mist more tbh) and have some new growth so it should hopefully look less sad in the coming months.

I don't know much about that particular species, but I'd definitely recommend removing those leaves ASAP- they won't recover, and if it's some sort of disease or pest you want to get rid of it.

plants often suffer a bit when moved from nursery to shop to home. they need a couple of months to settle.
check it gets enough light, remove the diseased leaves.

in addition, the last couple of years the quality of houseplant has changed due to changes in pesticides used (a lot less are allowednow) and the upcoming ban on peat in compost.

Thank you everyone - I wasn't sure whether to remove the leaves or not (didn't want to make it worse!) I think I'll keep it in the bathroom until the warmer weather arrives and try a different spot in the living room! Thank you.xx

In general, afaik, plants don't bother 'healing' diseased or damaged parts.

Yellowing leaves may respond to correction in whatever is causing the problem (eg light levels, not acid enough in the case of ericaceous plants, underfed) but brown leaves are on their way out. Sometimes it's natural senescence (like with deciduous trees in autumn, evergreens can do some of this year-round)- they can be left to drop off naturally. But if it's unhealthy-looking and brown it's likely to be doing more harm than good.

Palms don't keep all their leaves, they grow new ones and lose the older ones regularly. So just cut them off.
