The money tree meter - how to make it increase?

My meter is on the very beginning of yellow. How do I process to the other levels?
  • As you evolve the tree up you get more money for each stage normal up to perfect. If I remember, I started with about $11,000 and I am now getting around $18,000 each day.

    Because money is already easy to acquire. I'm not rushing for it.

    It very much needs water. I've had a money tree devolve its growth because I hadn't watered it. Thankfully I caught it before it actually died.

    To see if the tree needs to be evolved, you have to move the camera to the top of the tree and it'll show sparkles. Use good fertilizer to make it evolve faster.

    Check this link for good fertilizer.

    Or just use golden chicken magic - instantly gets plants to perfect.
    You do need to have your sim acquire a golden chicken though.

    But otherwise, fertilise as often as possible and always use fertiliser that's worth 50 simoleons or more (not too much because that would be a waste of money).
  • My favorite tactic is to evolve a sage or lemon plant (or really anything that's convenient but preferably year round) and then splice in a money tree graft. Harvest and bam instant perfect money!
