Next, repot the plant and inspect the corn for rot. Remove any rot found and treat with bleach water. I would repot in course sand (not play sand) until the plant shows no rot and growing normally.
Thanks. I will follow your advice!

It is still growing, but very very slowly. The roots are also not developing as quickly as I would have expected. (which is why I hadn't repotted it yet)

This is the one when I recieved that all but one of the leaves were drooping. I do believe this was from shipping stress--as the plant was purchased from a reputable member here, and over all looked like it had started out healthy.

The drooping leaves never recovered, either. Had to remove them, leaving one healthy leaf, and new cigar leaf. It has finally put out a third leaf but it's smaller than the others. The poor plant is definitely struggling :/

*editing to add: I've had it for almost a month.
