Boy, we have a pindo and it is like indestructible. It was first planted by the developer and then a year later it was yanked out and replanted. It was never given much TLC (other than the first couple of weeks after the second planting, it has had nothing but normal grass irrigation) and it is thriving. It is by far my most robust palm.

Is the grass around your pindo green? If not then perhaps you need to irrigate more frequently or longer. If it is, I suspect something other than water. Since it is just the lower part, could it be the normal shedding of the lower fronds that all palms go through?
