Propagating money tree  
I'm trying to propagate my money tree. I've recently cut off 2 pieces and I put them in jars of water. What can I add to make the roots grow faster? Also, What should I do with my dying momey tree which the stems had come from? There's only one base bark which is not suffering from root rot, but the other is. What should I do?

Well I would first replace the soil with a chunkier mix cause I had that same problem like you could use a cactus soil than you would give it 5-6 days before you water because it what it all the way dried and don’t water from the top only water from the bottom and mist every 14 days

That should get rid of the root rot

And when you repot use a fertilizer in those Little Rock form so you can mix it in the soil
