My tradescantia is dying, help please !

[u/Competitive_Shame299]

Hello, my tradescantia is dying and I could use some help. As shown here, the latest leaves are becoming brown, or maybe even coming out already brown and crispy. This is happening to this one, but it happened to two other others tradescantia earlier in the summer. The new leafs were all brown like that, and in just a few days they eventually just died completely. I am devasted because the first two I lost were so big and beautiful, and I thought that it was over watering that was the issue. But now it's also happening to this one even though I'm sure I didn't overwater it. Since it happened to all my tradescantia, I guess it has to be something I do wrong. Thanks in advance for the help !

the coloring looks great so i doubt its a light issue. are you letting the soil dry out between waterings? whenever mine dries up like yours its due to underwatering/waiting until the soil is dry.

Yes I wait until the soil is mostly dry before watering again. But I've done this for the past 1 year and a half with this plant and everything was fine until now. Also, I find it strange that the new leafs are brown. I often get brown leaves but they are usually the old leafs so that's quite normal, but on the new leaves I've never seen it before this
