Just recently brought this outside from being inside over the winter. IDK what exactly I did wrong… maybe not watering it enough? I did give it 12 hours of light every day, though.

That soil looks very wet and compacted so my hunch is overwatering. Pull it out of the pot and look at the roots. Brown colour is a sign of overwatering. At that point might as well break up the root ball and repot with fresh soil.
