Is this scorch or something else?

My Fernando has gotten a lot of crispy tips. He gets the most sun out of all of my plants but doesn’t get a lot of direct sun (to my knowledge). The last pic is a south facing window around 11am. I usually leave the blind drawn up 24/7 for these plants, but I’m wondering if I should keep them pulled down and open if it’s too much sun in the day? #NewPlantMom #FernFriends

I don’t think lighting is the issue I have one under 4x T5 Barrina lights and it’s fine. This might be a watering issue. My fern likes to be wet. So much so that it sits in a tray of water and just constantly soaking from bottom of pot. Not sure if this is your situation, but maybe 🤔

This is my fern that sits in a grow tent. The quantifiable variables are ~75% RH / 72F / Self watering / 12” from full spectrum lighting which is essentially bright indirect lighting.
