I transplanted my money tree plant a year ago. The root ball broke. The plant is still alive but only has one stem that survived. I use a plant app for watering but it seems I’m always over-watering. What should I do to help this plant?

A moisture monitor may help.

Yes I agree I got one for Christmas and it has helped me so much not overwater my plants. Also when you have a feeling of watering your plants wait a few days and then water your plants unless it is bone dry

Cool, I’ll look into that. Thank you.

A wooden chopstick is my best friend when it comes to checking moisture in my plants. You stick it to the bottom and when you pull it out dirt will stick to the level at the level of moisture.

That’s what I’ve been using. It is helpful.

That’s the dollar store version if you don’t want to spend a lot of money on a moisture meter

And it does work exactly the same
