I would automatically start off with a humidifier or pebble tray, keep leaves free from dust so it get photosynthesis good and keep sprayed with neem oil or insecticidal soap and good bright indirect light or slap a grow light on that bad boy and watch its growth take off, keep soil moist but not soggy.
