How to water a money tree

Avoid overwatering your money tree. Your pot needs proper drainage to prevent waterlogging.

Constantly check that the soil is dry before adding more water.

If there is too much water, the root system of the plant will begin to rot.

When it comes to humidity, the money plant is a tropical tree that enjoys high temperatures and humidity.

For this, you can use a humidifier.

In winter, the soil should remain moist, unlike in the hot summer.

After all, the plant grows steadily at this time, so it does not need a lot of water.

How often to water a money tree

Water the plant once or twice a week. However, the trick is to never leave the soil too wet or too dry.

You can adjust watering depending on the prevailing weather.

Increase watering in summer when it is too hot and reduce it in winter when it is cold.

Other than that, make sure your pot has proper drainage and you don't overwater the plant and gradually kill it.
