How much light does it get and how often are you watering? With these guys it’s usually a water problem.

it gets a decent amount of light in the morning!! it might be my watering that’s the issue, i water maybe every 5 days or more

It’s probably water. I’ve got one and it’s fairly tolerant to a wide range of light conditions. I would water more often. The app will tell you it needs less water than they do. Don’t let the soil dry out or they get crispy really fast. I leave mine in a bowl of water that’s always full, but if you’re worried about root rot then you can just water it every 3 days or so. If it’s in direct light the soil can dry out faster, so water it after it’s had its sun for the day, or well enough before that it won’t all just evaporate. That’s especially common if it’s in a black pot since it absorbs more heat from the sun!

Sometimes if you spray them or get water on the leaves when the sun hits they burn the leaves easily
