Poke a hole for airflow. I put mine in a container with moist perlite and put the whole thing in a baggie. I kept the corner open for airflow. I think warmth is the key. Mine did really well until it started getting cooler. Now they've kinda stalled.

thank you so much!! i definitely forgot to poke a hole i’m probably suffocating those things lol. you’re right about the warmth i’ve noticed a change in my plants as well since it started to get colder out
