Dry Leaf Ends On Lemon Tree

This has made me thinking for a while now and I really can't figure out what it could be. This is an 1 year old lemoon tree that is in good health except of that some of the leaves have brown & dry ends:

Is it indoors or out? Has it been dry recently? Sometimes dry weather can cause problems, potassium deficiency and so forth.

You might try some citrus fertilizer and occasional misting. Be sure you don't overwater it though.

Yes, it's indoors now, because it is too cold for it to be outside. I really don't know if it has got too dry. I mist them many times/day. Citrus fertilizer sounds like something I could try out. If I understood right the citrus fertilizer has some extra magnesium and manganese added.?
Those two links helped me understand my trees a bit better Thanx!
