def either humidity or too little water - how dry is the soil?

very but i watered about 48 hours ago! should i just be watering more often or should i change my watering technique?

check the roots! its either VERY rootbound and absorbing water quickly, or (the more likely scenario) the soil has become hydrophobic and is draining out the sides of the soil and isnt getting to the roots. if it doesnt look like it needs a new home, bottom water it and let it soak until it stops floating :)

I water mine about once per week keeping it facing NE, and MIST it with water. When I mist it, the spray bottle sprays a VERY FINE amount of water, and I do it every day (barely any, just enough so it’s not TOO wet but the leaves get a little “spritz”). At night, when my grow light is on my other plants, it’s above the plant stand (grow light underneath facing up)- it’s doing well.  
I hope some of this helps!

They will curl when they get cold. They will also curl if they are excessively dry and in a warm draft.
