Hello how many hours of direct sun does it get, how often do you water it and is the soil constantly moist? and maybe you have some more information about the conditions of your plant?

Ok, what type of water you use and the plant is planted in regular soil?

It’s the non treated soil it came in with distilled water.

if the soil is high moor peat then everything is fine with the soil but you can add a little perlite there, if the problem is not in the soil then maybe the vft has too much water (the soil should not be like a swamp all the time)
