What are your temperatures? What light is it getting? How often are you watering it?

the temperature is around 20-24 C almost all the time.
as for the light the plant is sitting about 1 meter away from a south-east window, receiving direct sun light in the morning for about 2 hour (because of the winter time and weaker sun rays of course) and then bright/medium light for the remaining of the day.
I mist the surface of the lecca almost every day since i am in a fairly dry climate, the humidity is between 20-40 % in the room the plant is and i have placed the the plant in a tray of water to help with humidity. apart from that i flush the pot almost every week or two and water when the reservoir is below 20% capacity.
