About 5 to 6 days and not real far from window put in front of about three hours day on sunny day

No not really

#### Jas replied on 2025-05-05

could be a humidity issue?

3 hours of light is not enough. Add grow lights or move to a sunnier brighter indirect light location. 8 to 12 hours of light. Do not follow a watering schedule. That method can ruin your plant. Water when the top 2ish inch is dry. You could check with a stick or poke your finger down there. When you pull it up and there is no soil stuck to it, it’s time to water. If you have more plants, I’d invest in a soil moisture meter. They are inexpensive and can be used for all your plants. Best plant tool ever.
