over watered rubber tree

Question

If all my leaves have fallen off my rubber tree and stalks are soft, will it come back to life or is it done?

Answer 1

It sounds like it is having issues with its roots, likely from the overwatering which may have led to root rot. Only water when the top of the soil is dry.
