Could be overwatering or drainage issue maybe 🤔

Lack of enough light most likely (which is what causes overwatering/root rot to occur, since without light energy, it won’t have the strength to drink water.

Mine was overwatering/lack of drainage like everyone else said.

Overwatering, poor drainage. Check your roots asap
