      Thank you! If some of the balls are mushy I assume those are dead?

      Yeah anything that’s mushy is too far gone unfortunately. It the rhizome ball is mushy, toss it. If the stem is mushy, but the rhizome is not, you can replant the rhizome. Zz plants are VERY sensitive to overwatering so they tend to struggle at big box stores that just come in a hose every plant down every week

      Thank you! I cleaned off all the bad soil and through out anything mushy, cut off mushy roots and luckily four rhizomes are firm and look okay

    Disinfect with hydrogen peroxide to kill bacteria. Then, let it dry out a bit.
