What am I doing wrong? I water every 7 days and have recently incorporated a ziplock bag over it to preserve humidity. It’s also on a window sill so it gets plenty of sunlight. Should I just give up?
Don’t give up… is this one that had fallen off a bigger plant? Did it have a root when you planted it?

It looks dry now, not sure when you last watered it. Terracotta will dry out the soul faster as it is very porous. I like to soak my pot in water every other watering or so. I submerge my small terracotta pots in a small bowl of water for about an hour, making sure the water doesn’t go over the top of the pot. I usually just go to the soil line.
