Please help!! Whats going on with my Pygmy Date Palm!?

I planted it about a month ago. My soil here is almost all sand so I mixed in a Miracle Grow soil for in ground plants.Used about 40% soil along with my native sandy soil and planted it in a sunny spot like what was recommended.

I started to notice a little browning on some of the younger leaves, now it seems to be spreading. There are some white specs on the underside of the fronds and in the center where the new fronds are growing there is a white "dusty" film.

This is my first attempt planting a palm and I really want it to be successful.Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks!
Beck
