There are several reasons a sylvester ( or any other tree/plant) will have leaves/fronds turn yellow or brown. Water IS FOR SURE one of these reasons. There are NO pat answers to "why are my fronds yellow?". Asked 3 people and got 3 different answers? Wich one actually dug a hole and checked moisture and pH? None of them I bet, and these are the No 1 and No 2 MOST IMPORTANT THINGS. And both things can cause yellow fronds.

Too many self proclaimed experts out there with no real experience or education. But they all have something to sell you.
