Looks like over watering to me. Your leaves are plump and curling Down.
How often are you watering and are you feeding them?

I grow it in a mixture of vermiculite and potting soil ive only gave it some fertilizer once it grows next to my window so it gets the afternoon sun for like 2-4hours and i water it every morning and its 9 weeks old

Hmm Seems the vermiculite may be holding too much water and thus not allowing enough oxygen into the root area.
Is there any chance you can give her some more sun? Like pop her outside. Swazi is a local staple in South Africa. It needs sun...as in as much as you can possibly give .
Soil recommend 1/3 potting soil , 1/3 compost ( vermi if you can get ) and 1/3 perlite. That will drain well and hold enough moisture while still allowing oxygen to your roots

Well thx for the info on the mixture but i cant rly put it outside due to me living in an apartment complex and the window ive put it at is the only place the sun really shines thrue but ill see where else i can put it but thank you is it ok if i water the plant each 3rd day?

Yeah if that's what she needs. Try get her into a wet dry cycle. Do a search for the proper way to water a plant by @Emilya . It will set you on the right pAth
