Unsettled cash in tda

Quick question. I know I saw this posted here, but searched and can't find it, how long does it take after selling a penny stock for the funds to settle in account? Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys.

If the stock you sold, was bought more than 3 days before, the money is ready to be used to buy another stock immediately.
