Jade Plant HELP!

in Jade plant care

Hi, I’ve recently acquired a large jade plant but have found multiple branches shriveled. I am very concerned and trying to save it. So far I have removed all the soil from its roots, and let it sit for 48 hours to let it dry out completely. The roots were dry and firm but some wrinkled and dead, so I removed those as best I could. I’m now trying to prune any branches that appear to be rotting or could be a problem to the longevity of the plant. Many of them have brown in the cross section of the stem when I cut them off though, and I don’t want to cut too many to cause more issues. Does anyone have any advice as to how to know when a branch must be pruned and when it should be left to recover? (I've attached pictures below)


Thanks so much 🙂

It doesn't necessarily look like root rot to me, probably more of a fungal infection- I would probably hit it with a systemic antifungal using the manufacturer's recommendations. I like Bonide products
