Ok this is my PROBLEM money tree. It was probably overwatered, but I have corrected that. Have I over corrected? Or is this just old overwatering damage? It’s so ugly lol

Hello,

I have a money tree and when I first got him, he had some leaves like that and they just dropped. I would take them off and just watch him for the next couple days

That’s the weird part…they’re not dropping!! lol I try and wait for them to fall off naturally or if they fall to a touch but these are hanging onnn

Honestly, I recommend taking off the affected leaves at the tip where they grow in to avoid spreading. I water mine using 4 ice cubes

I do this every 8 days
