Hi,

I found this online for you:

I read somewhere that the browning problem could be caused by weather conditions throughout the Summer or Winter, when the tree may have run out of water or may have been damaged by the cold. It is suggested thoroughly wetting the conifer which would hopefully assist in rehydrating it, or if by any chance an infestation was attacking it then this may also help. If this doesn’t work, perhaps buy a pesticide in case it is under attack.
