My Money plant seems to drop leaves this time of year. Leaves turn and fall. Any suggestions to prevent this process.

Mine is doing the same! I’m trying to water it more but that doesn’t seem to be working either I don’t think.

Wondering if it needs a grow light

#### EllenLikesPlants antwortete am 2026-01-05

I have one they goes for 2 hours each morning. Doesn’t seem to be helping me!

Try increasing the grow light to 12 hours to see if that helps

Mine too. Im thinking it’s due to poor sunlight. This winter has been especially harsh where I live.

### Sylvia kommentierte am 2026-01-05

Mine is dropping too! But I do have baby leaves coming in 🙏🏽

Try supplementing the light with a grow light and maybe add some humidity!

### Ivana kommentierte am 2026-01-06

Try a grow light! Water money tree every 1-2 weeks, but only when the top few inches of soil are dry, as they prefer drying out between waterings to prevent root rot. Frequency decreases in winter (every 2-3 weeks) and increases in warmer, brighter conditions, so always check soil moisture by finger test (dry = water, moist = wait) before watering thoroughly until it drains. Humidity,  
Avoid cold drafts from doors or windows, heating from vents (dry air).

Hope your money plant feels better soon 🤞🏽

Thank you. Do you have a recommendation on which grow light works best.

### Sfitz kommentierte am 2026-02-21

Here is the current plant 😩  
Lost a lot of leaves and added grow light. Still dropping
