Lower leaves on Money Tree are browning - is this part of a normal life cycle or cause for concern?

      I found an older reddit post that implied this is just a typical thing for the winter (kind of weird since we are nearing the end) but they said it always comes back stronger in the spring. So I guess we don’t need to worry?

    Could be old leaves. Also, how have you been watering? Is there root rot? Soil too moist? Too damp? Have you fertilized it?

      I follow Planta’s instructions - water every 8 days and alternate sometimes w liquid fertilizer. I also mist it every few days. The soil looks completely dry before I water it 🤷🏻‍♀️

      I keep mine damp but not soaked. I fertilize once a month. Usually first week. Have you checked to see if it needs a bigger pot? Or root rot? Mine is in money tree soil I found on Amazon. I think you’re supposed to change the soil every year.

    You have a yellow sticky trap? Is it to can fungus gnats? Their larvae live in wet soil eating roots and causes root rot. I also recommend checking for root rot. Root rot can look like random dead areas on the leaves.
