What to do if the roots of the money tree rot

1. Treatment methods

After discovering that the roots of the money tree are rotten, if the situation is not serious, you can buy Benomyl for treatment and pour it into the potting soil after adding some water. But if the root rot is serious, you need to dig it out of the soil and clean up the soil attached to the roots. Use clean scissors to remove any root rot. In addition, the old soil should not be used anymore and new soil should be used for planting.

2. Daily Improvement

1. Water control: Root rot is mostly caused by water accumulation. If you water it too much, the plant cannot absorb the water or drain it out. Its roots cannot breathe normally in the water and root rot will occur. Therefore, the amount of watering should be reduced, and any accumulated water should be drained as soon as possible.

2. Changing the soil: During the maintenance period, the soil should be turned over or changed regularly, because the soil will become airtight over time. If the soil is not loosened, the roots will not be able to breathe and will rot. The soil should be turned over more often and changed regularly.

3. Control fertilizer: Applying too much fertilizer is most likely to burn the roots. You should water the plant heavily to irrigate the roots and let the water wash away the excess fertilizer. When maintaining the plants, you should not only control the amount of fertilizer, but also pay attention to the concentration of the fertilizer not being too high.
