@kimmienav268 Жыл бұрын

Your soil held on to too much moisture and that is why the roots rotted..it was also too heavy..not porous enough and basically strangled the root system and that is why the roots were so short. You can amend the soil for better drainage by taking some succulent and cactus soil then add some pumice stone, perlite, coco coir. Good luck with the tree. I have plants and I love them all.

Hi Caryn. How do you unbraid them a little? They are wooden stems. I cannot unbraid them a little. It's either unbraiding and planting them far from each other, or not unbraiding at all. The wooden stems have their shape and are not flexible. If you set them apart a little bit, the holes and twists will not match any more. Or what do you mean?

Hey Ashley, Thank you so much for watching. I am so happy that it helps. Honestly, I didn't see any insects coming out of these eggs. But I also had to repot it again and I actually removed the old soil completely, as the rot continued and I had to remove the 2nd stem as well. After struggling for about 2 months, the leaves were opening up all curled, now at least it seems the rotting process stopped, but it still doesn't look healthy

Awe I'm sorry to hear that your tree still isn't very happy 😢 at least you haven't given up on it!! I still have yet to repot my money tree. It was given to me as a rescue, even though I don't really know what I'm doing with the plants I already have. Luckily I seem to be doing something right considering there are now multiple new growths coming in. Now that summer is coming up I am hoping it will make it since I have it outside (in a shady area that still gets plenty of non direct light). As for the white stuff, I've been thinking it is mineral buildup. I've had to stop using tap water, it was causing all of my propagations and many other plants to rot due to having such hard city water. Wishing you the best of luck with your green buddy 🤞❤

I can't seem to get my soil to dry out! I used regular potting mix when we first bought it (the nursery let us pot it using some of their soil while we were there). I could not water it for 2 months and the soil would still be just soaked. So I removed the old soil and re-potted it in some succulent potting mix because it's supposed to be well draining, I even added some rocks to the bottom of the pot so moisture could escape better....it gets closer to drying out now and I have some leaves growing, but it still stays really moist. Sometimes I bring it outside on my deck in the evenings so the sunlight can help dry out the soil but it doesn't help much. I have two stems I think are dead, but before I repot I need to find a soil that won't retain so much moisture.

@AnnasViolets 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Megan, it's definitely the quality of soil, but maybe also try to water it less? If the two stems are rotten, it's better to remove them as the others may get rotten as well

My husband and I bought this tree for our unity ceremony for our wedding, so I really want it to live.

@BillyJean46 4 ай бұрын

@@meganwoehl5277 I know I'm late writing this, and I do hope you got to save your money tree, but I just wanted to add that if your pot is too big for the plant, it means there will be way to much soil in it and when watered, the root system being too small for the big pot, it can't drink up that much from the wet soil. The pot should be one to two inches bigger than the root ball so when you repot it, don't go too big.

Hi Anna, This has been so helpful! We have just had some very hot weather here in the UK which meant I had to block out the sun/light and my money tree stopped growing but I was still watering, and yes, I over watered it, not realising water was collecting in the saucer. And because it was in the dark I was not noticing two of the stems starting to shrink (go wrinkly) and die! I just removed an already dead stem, like you here, which was rotten. I'm hoping I have got in there soon enough!! Can stems come back once they have started to die, but are still green and slightly shrunken and the bases still seem nice and firm? Thanks!

Hi I’ve been needing help saving my money tree! My parents gift it to me, and it was growing beautifully, suddenly it started having yellow/brown leaves, I thought it had root rot so I repotted it into a bigger pot since it got bigger and got the soil at how depot called Miracle Gro Potting Mix for plants. I don’t know if that was the wrong soil for it? But ever since it’s been dying !! I’m so sad! I want to save it but I don’t know what to do. What soil do u recommend for it? Kellogg’s , succulent and palm and citrus soil would work?? Should I change the soil? What should I do? :( please help!

@AnnasViolets 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Kimberly. When you repotted, did you check the roots? Were some roots rotten? Maybe also check the stems. Are they hard, or maybe one is a bit soft? As for the soil, in my area they are sold mostly in coco coir, so I have two that grow in this kind of potting mix. But when I repot, I usually use a good quality universal potting mix, and add a bit of perlite. I think the most important here is the pot. I have the best experience with these plants, when they grow in ceramic pots with a big hole. Ceramic pots breath, the air ventilation is much better and the soil gets dry faster. I can even see if the soil is moist by just looking at the pot.

@Gojosatrou-Edits 2 жыл бұрын

It did not have no root rot at all, so I wasn’t sure what else it could be. Now it only got worse, and I’m thinking the miracle gro potting mix is not good for it, it seems to be a month already and the soil feels damp. So now I believe it is getting root rot and overwatered.

Hi Sakilah, unfortunately if the bottom of the plant, basically the wooden trunk is soft, it means it's rotten and in this case I don't think you can save the plant. But you can try to make cuttings from the green stems and put them into water. Not all, but some may give roots and you can at least propagate it that way

Hey Ernnisa, first of all, thanks for watching! Please do not connect the life of a plant with the life of your son. Plants in pots will not live forever, but your son will have a very long and a happy life! :) If the stems of your plant are wet and mushy, they are most probably getting rotten. You can take the plant out of the soil, examine the roots, remove the rotten stems and plant the healthy stems in a new pot. And water just a little bit. Let the soil get completely dry. If all stems at the base are rotten, try to save the green growth at the top of the plant, by cutting the green young stems and putting them into water for propagation. They will give roots and you can plant them again. I sprayed neem oil, dilluted with water
