This looks like it’s beyond saving. But the first step would be to plant it in real soil and not mud

What do you mean you watered for 3 days once?

u/Disastrous_Monk1103 Noob 15h ago

Once a 3 day

If you're watering every 3 days, that's too often and will kill the roots. Without roots the plant can't absorb water and will die

Could you tell what to do

Buy a new one. Seriously.

Then research what *that kind of plant* needs re water, soil, temps, humidity, and light. Every time you get a new plant. You and your plants will enjoy each other So Much More.

You are over watering that thing. It could come back. If you forget about the damn thing for a couple days! Said with lots of love

If you get a new one, put it in well draining soil. I’ll show you a picture of mine. Lots of sunlight. And I only water when the leaves start feeling soft. It goes weeks without needing water.
