@mrscotchguy Год назад

Money trees don't produce a ton of roots, so the watering requirements are sometime touchy. They also store a ton of water in the trunk more like a succulent. If they have lots of leaves, water more frequently, less often for the opposite. I use a loose aroid mix to encourage more root growth. They also get leaf burn super easy so wipe off the leaves if you splash water on them and they are close to a window.

I don’t know where this whole ice cube thing started but ignore ANY tag on ANY plant that says use an ice cube. If you want to put your plant into shock and eventually kill it, then yes, use ice cubes lol. Most plants need a thorough watering at room temperature. Orchids often have tags that say use ice cubes and it drives me nuts!

This video was really helpful! I like the braided look but they also cut mine short like the one in this video. Is there a way for it to still look good if I continue to braid it or should I go for the bush look?

If you braid it, there will be a bump in the braid where the stems were cut. So you can either be fine with the bump in the braid, or just keep it short and bushy through pruning. 👍

@brkbtjunkie Год назад

Your low light money tree was massively stretching for light as well. That’s why the internodes are so long. I keep mine in a window that receives morning sun and I keep the blinds half open. It loves it there. It loves it when I forget about it because they really don’t need much water. I’ve had it for a year and have only fed it liquid nutrients twice, at half the dose as well.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Yep! I test everything in low light first because there's always someone online saying these houseplants do well in low light and I want to test if they really do or if they suffer... And money trees suffer lol! Definitely not a low light plant! 🤣

@kmasse81 Год назад

That's a terracotta pot and they evaporate water much quicker. They're great for cactus and succulents but not for humidity loving plants. I keep my money tree in a plastic pot for the drainage holes and use a basket for decorative touch to place it in after I water/drain it.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Yes, plastic pots are also good for this plant. I used terra cotta for mine while it was in a lower light location to ensure better drainage because it wasn't drying out fast enough.

@heatherwoods5703 Год назад

I'm finding clay pots are great for many indoor plants that are risk of overwatering. Clay lets them dry completely before I thoroughly water them again. 👍

@michelleburris1056 Год назад

You can take your plant out of the terracotta pot (those pots wick water away from the plant). I'm sure you will find that it doesn't dry out as fast so you won't have to water too frequently.

@bonsaiboy999 Год назад

How come they live in a SWAMP in the wild but they tell you not to overwater them ?

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Great question Clinton! I believe it all comes down to what growing media the plant is growing in, the root system becomes used to. For example, I've got some money tree cuttings growing in straight water right now and they're loving it! But as for issues with overwatering, I think the reason they have issues is because indoor temperatures and humidity is usually a lot lower than in a swamp, so they don't have nearly as much transpiration, so not nearly as much water usage. Does that explain a bit? I know it seems really confusing, like "why do you grow great in the swamp, but you're dying on me indoors?!" Haha! 😂

@sunshinehand1223 Месяц назад

@yessicalurita3565 Put enough water so it drains out of the pot. That's what he said. Suggested. Two of my leaves have white spots that look like paint and a few leaves have brown spots that are now holes. I never watered mine to where the water flows out of the bottom of the pot. I'm about to attempt his suggestion.

@mikeg6050 8 месяцев назад

I noticed you had white spots on your leaves. I have this as well. I was wondering what it was and if it’s bad! PS I have my planned outside on my deck with a ton of light and some direct sunlight in Florida and it seems to be doing well outside of the white spots!

@thegirlwithashovel 8 месяцев назад

Yes if you've got the humidity, these guys love the extra light! But do the same in Arizona and they'll die real fast! It's been a bit since I've done this video but I'm assuming the white spots were from watering. Do you get the leaves wet when you water? If you wipe them off with a damp cloth they should go away if it's what I'm thinking of... 😊

I was going to cover that in a propagation video. But the main thing is to cut just above a leaf node (where the stem that has the leaves is attached to the main stem, or where it has a little bump on the main stem). Hope that helps! 😊

@Nutamu 5 месяцев назад

My money tree started recently having trouble...it was drooping. I bought it a light, changed out some of the soil with some cactus blend, regular dirt and perlite, gently cleaned the leaves and gave it a small watering. I hope it bounces back. I'm gonna fertilize it this weekend just in case that is lacking. I was misting until it started drooping...I was afraid my misting was harming it. Good to know it wasn't. Also while removing about 50% of its old soil...found a big plastic band around the bottom. I wonder if it had not been noticed if it would have choked the plant when it grew? I don't really care for the braiding so didn't need to keep it on there.

@thegirlwithashovel 5 месяцев назад

Yes the band will eventually choke it. Good choice to remove it. Just be careful when changing a lot of different things, you won't be able to know which one thing was making the difference. I would recommend changing one thing, then waiting a few weeks, then changing another thing if it's still struggling. Hope this helps! 😊

Regarding humidity: is misting the plant ok? I’ve been misting mine once a day for the past few days since I don’t have a humidifier

As far as my research, misting has not yet been seen as a good source to increase humidity because it lasts for only a few short seconds. You'd have to be constantly missing for hours lol! I would try to go instead with a pebble tray and grouping your plants together... ☺️

@lolimiy Год назад

My money tree is currently sick , looking forward to your 2nd video. She is having yellow spots on curled leaf , and leafs is producing some clear color sticky liquid. I haven’t seen anyone talk about it, and don’t know how to help her.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Hi lolimi! Any time a plant is oozing, my immediate thought is insects. I would check for spider mites. Does this look like it might be the issue?!

@lolimiy Год назад

She immediately oozing AFTER I repotted her, and continued for a week. This week, I saw a little web in one of her branch where a deformed new branch was, I then purchased Captain Jack’s Neem oil and have been using on her since this Wednesday. Her leafs is still curling a bit and have brown tip, some brown spots, but over all leafs started to turn to darker green color ( it was light green with tiny yellow spots all over each leaf). I don’t know if I’m doing the right thing and not sure how to determine if she healthy again and insects are gone (if there was any). Thank you in advance.

@lolimiy Год назад

Oh, and she stopped oozing on Friday. Thank you again.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Your definitely on the right track! The webbing is a sign of spider mites, as well as the tiny little yellow spots everywhere... Spider mites are very small. To see them, get a white piece of paper and shake a few leaves over it. It should drop some specks. If these specks start moving, then it's spider mites! This can help you see if you still have them or not. Hope this helps!

@lolimiy Год назад

Thank you very much for the guidance. I inspected leafs again today, I saw some tiny tiny dark orange dots on them. I tried your method, nothing fall off and they don’t seem moving on the leaf. Do you recommend to prune off all of the leafs and let it have a fresh start? I’m currently isolating her, but not sure when I can put her back in her normal spot because I’m worrying she will infect other plants.

What fertilizer are best for money tree

@main2333 Год назад

Will raise bed soil be ok? I’m worried. I see little nets and one one of the braided died. Maybe cause I didn’t put holes into the pot soon enough. Not sure cause it’s root rot or the soil. Leaves have been turning yellow and falling.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Hi! I would add additional perlite to raised bed soil. That is if it doesn't smell like compost. If the compost hasn't broken down enough (like in some garden soils), then it could cause problems in your indoor pots. But if it's composted enough then you should be fine as long as you add more drainage with the perlite or sand. And yes, if you don't have holes it could be too much water at the bottom of the pot which can cause root rot...

@purposelywin4943 Год назад

think I’m experiencing root rot. The leaves were pale green and some fell off. I inspected the bottom stems and they were wet and a light brownish color. The roots looked brown I trimmed them back and repotted in new soil. Should I water right away or let it dry out first? Any suggestions??

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Definitely let it dry out. The lightish brown color could possibly show it's too late. So I would dry it out, then if any more stems fall over I would propagate them in water. (Cut off the brown sections, let it dry for a few days, then place in water). I hope this helps!

The leaves are beautiful...no yellowing ..no browning....watering on point but drooping leaves

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

If the leaves are looking nice and green and are not dropping, but are only facing downward, it could either be a sign of not enough water (but then they would go back up after watered). Or it could just be the healthy leaves facing to the sides because that's where most of the light comes from through windows. To fix it you would need a plant light to give light from above. But personally I don't think there's anything wrong with the leaves going more to the sides as long as it is still healthy! 😊

My money tree was doing well until I decided to fertilize it (it was a short blue stick, I don't remember the name). My tree did not like it, the leaves began to turn yellow and fall off. Is there anything I can do? I completely emptied the soil with fertilizer and put in a new one, but I don’t see any changes yet :-(.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Unfortunately it sounds like you did all the right things, but now you just have to wait for it to recover. If you are in the northern hemisphere this could be a few months until spring comes and it starts actively growing again. The only thing to watch out for is if the leaves continue to turn yellow and fall off, but it seems like you've done the right thing for now with changing out the soil. 🙂

The golden tie is useful when it's young but it should stay together on its own after several months of it being tied. Next, they use golden ties to "bring fortune and good luck in your life".

I believe the "ice cube" situation depends on your tap water. Refrigerators don't usually have a filter for ice. So if you have alot of chemicals in your tap water, your ice cubes will to.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Yes. It is partly the quality of the tap water, but also some plants are more sensitive to the temperature change of the cold water on their roots. Think winter rain temps vs summer rain temps. Some plants don't mind, but others hate getting cold feet lol. 😆

I would assume it would lessen the amount of water able to go into the ceramic (especially if it's painted on the inside as well). So just keep an eye on your moisture levels and make sure it dries out enough between watering. Sorry I didn't have a definitive answer for you...

just purchased a Money Tree plant in a 10 inch pot with drainage. I poured one litre of Water and a little came out of the drainage holes. But my moisture meter indicated the earth as dry. Does this mean i didnt pour enough water?

@thegirlwithashovel 11 месяцев назад

Sometimes our soil can be so dry it pulls away from the sides, creating areas where water will flow through without ever soaking into the soil. You can watch my video on "when to bottom water your plants" to see what is going on. Basically sounds like you need to soak your soil a bit more. 😉

@jeffreykaufmann2867 11 месяцев назад

@thegirlwithashovel The Volume of the Pot is about 7.5 Litres so one litre of Water may not be enough to soak it. Next time I'll pour 1.5 litres of Water. I bought this Money tree at ikea and on the sticker it indicated that the water requirement is only 1/3. Plants that need a lot of water get a 3/3. It can easily go without water for 2 Weeks.

I followed the directions on my money tree label and I'm here 😔. Hopefully, I can save it! It's my first money tree and on the edge of dying 🥺

I hope these tips helped! I would also recommend you check out my video on money tree troubleshooting to see exactly what is causing your plant to decline. 😊

That’s weird my money tree does fine with low low light. It has a lot of babies and the leaves is the same size as yours. However, it right next to my humidifier and it loves it.

Hi! Your leaves are curling due to it being too dry when they first emerge. You can check out my video where I talk more about this and other money tree problems here! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GLbiGvTIaHA.html

My money tree is turning brown, there is no drainage in the pot , it’s ceramic pot , should I change the pot ??

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Brown is usually not enough water. Yellow is too much water. I would make sure it's brown, then water more! 😊

@annettebarker2078 Год назад

I've had mine a little over a year and suddenly it is not doing well. I've reported and reduced the water but now I'm afraid I'm not watering enough! The leaves dry out at the tip of the leaf and creep up the whole leaf.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Yep, sounds like it's drying out. Just check the soil first and make sure it's dry between watering, but don't let it get bone dry! 😂

@Papa-dt5ls Год назад

Should I take the band off at the bottom of the plant ?? I just bought one …

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Go ahead. As long as the stems will stay together, it should be fine. If it's left on too long, it can hurt your money tree.

@ji-ah3186 Год назад

Is a plastic pot also good?

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Plastic pots are fine but they need good drainage. I feel that mine likes the ceramic pot more just because it gives it a better moist/dry cycle since the ceramic holds onto a bit of moisture and will also dry out as the soil dries. I also personally feel that the plastic pots tend to heat up a bit more so you can potentially have your soil and roots a bit less protected in plastic. But that being said a lot of my plants are still in plastic because let's just admit it... It's cheaper! 🤣

Any indoor plant fertilizer will do. Just make sure to follow the dosage instructions on the package!

@alexpineiro7960 Год назад

I think the reason ice cubes don't work well often is that MOST people I've known use tap water to make them. Tap water can contain numerous harmful substances and many municipalities report up to 88 or so various pharmaceuticals in tap water from people flushing meds. If there is Floride in the water it WILL harm your plant. I made that mistake and saw the beginning of decline. I switched to filtered water ice cubes, once a week, 3 cubes..they are doing well again. I think the thing that makes them perky and happiest of all that its a very visible difference is to give them at least 6-8 hours of very bright "Indirect" Sunlight. I also find they look much better if you keep it from growing leaves or branches along the lower trunk. This allows more nutrients to go to upper leaf use, and you get a better tree look. By the way, these are not my advice and observations. I'm new to plant children in the house, but I read a lot on what I buy for best chances as I hate killin things. Why I follow the Lovely and informative host here. She clearly is passionate about what she does. Sooo, I'm saying if I can do it, you can do it. Oh, I'm using a mix of specific Money Tree formulated soil and Happy Frog Soil which is very good soil. I'm learning very quickly to just vibe them out, and see what they're saying to me because they have all manner of "body language" Thank You, Girl With A Shovel..great video

East or west side Window?

@thegirlwithashovel 10 месяцев назад

Either one. But a west facing window is typically warmer since it has the afternoon & evening sun, so if you live in a hot climate then an east facing window would be better. 😊

Can you bring one back to life once all leaves dry out

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Hi Karina! This all depends on how healthy the roots are and how much energy it's got stored up. I've personally pruned all the leaves off (called a hard pruning) and it's pushing out new ones now. I would give it a shot. Just be careful not to over water right now since only the stem is using water. Good luck!

How to trim and when

@thegirlwithashovel 8 месяцев назад

Just trim it when it is getting too big. Trim at the stem at the height you want more growth. 😊

@scottgalbreath5707 Год назад

Best to water with luke warm water or filtered/bottled water. Ice cubes honestly shock the plant. Not good for it.

@thegirlwithashovel Год назад

Yes I totally agree. Don't use ice cubes!!! 😜

@leeabraham2008 8 месяцев назад

Why leaves turn brown and fall off

@thegirlwithashovel 8 месяцев назад

It's usually brown when it's dry and yellow when it's too wet, but see if the leaves are crinkly. This is a sure sign of too little water. If they're still soft, then it's a sign of too much water/not enough light/not enough drainage... 😊

@Miss.JulieJulie Год назад

Great video and you sound very sweet. 👍🏼

@suellenbrown5208 5 месяцев назад

All I wanted to know is how you trim it back. The one thing you didn’t do. I wanted to know where on the stem do you cut? You talked about it a lot but you didn’t do it. I sure wish you had.

@thegirlwithashovel 5 месяцев назад

I'm sorry your question wasn't answered. Trimming is usually a part of propagation videos, which I don't have for money trees yet. What you need to do is trim it above a leaf node (the little bump on the stem). This allows the plant to have somewhere to grow a new stem. I usually try to only cut a few stems at a time so the plant still has a few leaves on it. I hope this helps!

@thegirlwithashovel 6 месяцев назад

Do you have good humidity?! 🙃

@NEnigma777 8 месяцев назад

That money tree looks a bit unhealthy and leggy. It definitely needs more light and better soil. I use perlite and I also use tropical mix soil to help with water drainage. Grow lights also help if you’re worried it’s not getting enough light. Mine are THRIVING under grow lights

@thegirlwithashovel 8 месяцев назад

That's why I said I was testing it out in low light first and you can see how leggy it got. Then once I switched to brighter light, it pushed out the very large leaves at the top. I like to push them to the edge to see what they can and cannot handle lol! But you're right that they love more light! 😆

Because they are cut when they reach a desired height. Then the stems can bush out to make it look more full. 😊
