Any way to save this baby? I haven’t watered in literally WEEKS but it still ended up squishy/rotten up to where my fingers are 😩

Biggest issue with this specific tree has been root rot spreading up the trunk!!

My money tree also suffered form root rot. If you have any nodes with at least 2 sets of leaves, my best advice would be to propagate! That was the only way I was able to save mine.

I’ve had such failures trying to propagate them too! Any tips?

Honestly it just takes forever. And it grows these clumpy clusters that look like fungus but it’s actually roots. Took mine 2+ months until I felt it was good enough to pot up.

Yes it does take forever! I waited until the roots where chunky and big enough to pot in soil. This is my money tree now. Now thriving and giving me new growth

I would suggest you keep your propagation under a grow light for success.

Root powder the bottom then put it in water. Or moist soil. You have to keep the soil wet otherwise no roots will grow.
