The pot looks way too big, and these guys are prone to overwatering/root rot.

I would remove it and check the roots. Then repot into something’s 1-2”(max) larger than its root ball with well draining soil.

They can grow tuber-like roots (not sure how to describe them) that can hold a lot of water. So only water when its almost dry. \<- everyone’s growing conditions are so different that yours might not like to totally dry out. This might take a bit of experimenting to get right for your conditions.

Ok thx I repotted it yesterday and had to remove a bunch of dead seedlings that I couldn’t take care of because it was at my grandparents house while I was gone for a while so that’s why the pot is really big 😂
