Where are my money tree owners at?? Anyone think the water cycle the app has for Money Trees is WAY off?? Mine is saying water once every like 18-20 days. But like they’re already dried out after watering them a few days ago. Thoughts?

    Also my ZZ plant water schedule is like the same thing and that plant is dry as a bone already. I know both like to dry out, but for that long?

      Zz plant has rhizomes, which hold water. They really can, and do, like to go long periods of neglect.

      OzPlantGirl is correct. I haven’t watered mine in like…months and he’s still super green and going amazing. You can make your own custom watering schedule if you’d like. Idk if it’s just a premium thing or if it’s available for everyone.

    Are you checking with a skewer all the way at the bottom of the pot? If you are and it still dries out in a few days, it’s probably very rootbound and needs a new pot.
