Under or over watering. By the looks of the soil it needs watering

I water it every day until the soil is moist, I’m just worried that I might have maybe watered it when it was too warm in the day and it hurt the plant

You might be watering it too much don’t water it, but keep an eye on it. I’ll be completely honest I’ve never watered mine, I actually thought they were weeds until a neighbour told me
