How to fertilize Dwarf ZZ plant

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Dwarf ZZ plant after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Help #RavenZzPlant Okay. Had to buy this. I knew it would be a project, but it was marked down to $10! Some stalks are black and some are green, one is long, one looks like it’s dead at the top and one is flopped over not broken but bent on the stem. I need all sorts of help. Soil mix, separating, propagating? There’s like 10 stem. to work with. I took it out of the self wateribg pot and let it dry out, I sprayed with neem oil - I water blasted every leaf then next day went with a qtip and brushed every last visible part of the plantt with isopropyl alcoholohol. God autocorrectautocorrct is going insane. I’m leaving it because it’s funny but for real, how am I repottingrepottig or am i just gonna let it live like this?
