Adorable!! It does look a little stretched out, what kind of sun is it getting? And for how long each day?

Not much we don’t have a south facing window this is what happened to my last one. I’m really thinking about getting a grow light

highly recommend a grow light for these babies!!

That will probably fix the problem. These types really do best with bright, direct light. I too, lack a south facing spot in my home 😢
