The other posters have most of what could be happening covered. I have found that the new tubes are not very tough. Especially the Asia made ones. I mounted a 20.8 x 38 tire on a tractor that is setting in the shop that is getting the motor rebuilt. The tire set there for weeks and then went flat. Would not take air fast enough to lift it so I could get the tall jack under it. I found that the tube had a split in it about two feet long. Looks like it was right along where the tube is put together. It was a cheap tube that the local tire shop gave me as warranty on this tire after they "fixed" it three times. I ordered a US made tube and that has been holding air since then.
Trick I have found that really helps on these modern tube to make them take and hold a patch better, is to warm the tube with a heat gun before applying the patch glue. Then dry the glue with one too. Put the patch on while the dried glue is warm. Then heat the tube and patch up after it has been put on. This stopped the patch from coming off the new tubes that are not as good of rubber as we used to get. A hair dryer would work too.
