The Ultimate Guide to Growing and Caring for Spider Plants

ADVERTISEMENT

Choose a pot with good drainage to prevent waterlogging. Fill it with a well-draining potting mix.

Plant the spider plant or baby spiderette in the soil, ensuring roots are covered and the plant is stable.

Place your plant in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch leaves.

Water the plant moderately, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between watering sessions. Overwatering can cause root rot.

Mist the leaves occasionally if your home is dry, especially in winter, to maintain humidity.

Feed the spider plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced water-soluble fertilizer.

Remove any brown tips or dead leaves to keep the plant healthy and attractive.

Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its container, ideally in spring.
