I laughed so hard at your comment. Yes it's exactly like an empire!!! I can't bear to give any away amd when I do everyone already has a spider plant lollll😂😂
I removed most my leafs off my spider plant today and changed the soil because it was wayy too moist at all times and my plant was dying. We'll see how it recovers. The roots were mostly fine. Update: It's thriving! All the stems I cut started producing many new small plants! There's many of them and they keep growing!
Great video! I recently bought an established spider plant from the local garden market - it had babies and everything. I repotted it into a larger hanging pot and placed it on the balcony, but it started looking rather haggard after a week. Its leaf tips were turning brown, and the babies' root tips were also turning brown! I've since repotted it into a smaller pot and have placed it indoors, suspecting that exposure to wind was beating my poor plant up. Was looking everywhere for confirmation that spider plants don't like draughts, and finally found it here - thank you!
Thank you! Yes they can be really sensitive to this. I'm not sure where abouts you live, but too much direct sun and lack of humidity can also be a major cause of browning. Hope it's doing better now and bounces back soon! 💚
@@TheJungleHaven I'm in Sydney which has mild winters, and summers that range from extreme humidity to extreme dryness. My balcony gets a LOT of wind, so I think if I was to place it outdoors, it would need a more sheltered environment. Anyway, fingers crossed that it likes its new spot indoors, and thanks for responding to my comment! :)
I am a new subscriber & new to the plant community. I've always loved plants but couldn't keep them healthy. Slowly I am learning so thank you so much for all your tips.
I’m in Arizona in the USA. My spider plant took a bit to take root. But it finally did and is going absolutely bananas! Just about a year old and I have two stalks with more babies than I have pots for!! I keep near a sunny window during the day. I’m a polar bear at night though.
I’m a new subscriber to your channel. Just wanted you to know your info is great and you’re really easy to listen to! I like that you get right to the point!!! So many drag on like they just want to fill in words! Keep up the good work! Looking forward to watching some of your older videos I missed 😍
I want to thank you for all your information. I lived in another state. It was New Jersey and I grew all types of plants moved to Florida. I can’t add. I can’t keep a plan but I’m taking your tips. Appreciate you very much. Thanks for sharing.
I bought one dragon plant from asda on a whim a few weeks back. Now my house looks like the bloody Amazon. The spider plant in the bathroom is the best though. Just pure green..not variegated. Its gone mad in a few weeks 😂
I have to get new Tropical soil for my Spider Plant, as well as other types of pots. My big Spider Plant needs to be transplanted due to my having to cut off bent leaves. I’ve had it hanging in the front window, but I think I’d like to try a glass cabinet like you have just to see how good my plants can grow.
Thank you so much Claire, I really really enjoyed watching you take us through the care of spider plants. I have one spider plant with dozens of babies and what is your favourite way of propagating them please. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I need to know what the best plants are for all the rooms in my house. What are the best plants for the Bedroom, Bathroom & Kitchen. My Mother used to do this sort of thing and I think it’s a rather “Healthy” thing to do, Please Advisee me on this. Thank You.
I just got two spider plant starts off of a Craigslist ad. I know nothing about growing anything. So you're saying keep them in water and plant after there's 4 or 5 inches of roots? They're both currently in two different glass containers of water. Thank you very much in advance. I appreciate it.
Oh wow you luckily thing! I wish I could pop out for a walk and find them (mind you, that might be slightly dangerous - my house would be FILLED with them) 😂💚
@@TheJungleHaven yeah my husband was like ohh my. I have been letting them soak in water. I am going to pot them here in a couple days. It was amazing I ended up finding over 10 babies. They just kept separating.
Im trying to save my spider plant! When I first got her she was full and had a troth of babies. Now all the babies have dies and the leaves are beginning to turn brown and die off. I used to water her once a week but I think that may be too much idk..I just want to have a healthy plant. I will try and follow the tips in this video. Thank yoiu
Im just starting to get into plants as I get older and I have my Spider plant out side hanging under my front porch , day time temps have been 80s & 90s & night time lows in the 60s also pretty high humidity , is this too much for it , should it be inside I keep my house around 70 - 75 degrees . Also theres looks like five plants in the one pot should I split them up into like two smaller pots ? Also just found your channel and subscribed .
Helpful video, thanks. Two weeks ago, I got the same type of variegated spider plant as the one in your video. I repotted and fertilised it. I also water it about every 4-5 days. I also removed a few leaves that were broken, yellowing or had holes. But now, the few remaining leaves are limp and wilted. Please, what can I do to revive it? Please help!!
Hello I have a fully mature spider plant with approx 10 legs full of plantlettes. Can I trim these all the way back to the mature plant? I am not planning on making any additional plants from the plantlettes. The babies are getting massive and some of the bases are turning a brownish/black.
Hello! Congratulations, your videos are amazing! ☺️ Question: if I buy a "tropical plant" specific soil, should I still add perlite? What about peat moss? 🤔
I'm glad to get those tips. Just bought a spider plant on sale from big box store; it had brown spots on some of the leaves not just the tips; What can i do about it?
Hello lovely 🥰 Could you please do a video on how much soil you need above and below your houseplants? I heard you say a pot was “too deep” in another video, which I didn’t know could be an issue. I also feel like my plants are always either drowning in soil and the base of the plant is covered too much, or it’s not covered enough and the roots are showing! I hope that makes sense? This should probably be easy, so maybe it’s just a me problem 🥺 P.s Love your energy!!
Hiya! That's a really good idea, I'll make sure to cover it in a video soon. I'm just always wary not to overwhelm a small root system with too much soil, as often it won't be able to absorb all the moisture effectively when you water, leading to things such as root rot. I'll always go for something on the smaller side if I'm in any doubt. Also it's definitely not a "you" problem hahah - I learnt the hard way too and lost quite a few plants that I potted in pots that were too big 💚
My spider plant is doing fairly well, I've had it since December, but the leaves are growing straight up instead of the gentle drooping that I had associated with the plant
My big plant i bought a couple months ago only has a couple shoots/stems for babies to grow on. Why are there only a couple of those shoots/stems growing amongst the many leaves?
I have a question - I recently adopted a spider plant from a friend, just slightly bigger to yours. She's kept it in water, and suggested I do the same. But I've noticed the leaves are pale and droopy and there's brown tips. Looking online it seems too much water can cause this. Would you recommend I put them in soil? And if so which soil is good?
I've heard a few people say this about spider plants. I really hope this helps - it's what I've done for all of mine and (touch wood) they're all doing well 💚
Depending on the size of the pot, yes. Mine's now potted up in a 12cm pot and I usually let the top inch completely dry out (obviously if it's a much smaller/bigger pot then that will vary slightly) 💚
Hi Claire - thanks for these individual plant tips! I really appreciate them and find them so helpful! Spider plants are one plant that i CANNOT keep alive. Give me a hard plant, fine...an "easy" one.. no chance 🤦♀️🤷♀️🪴 - i will deffinitely be taking notes!
Hey Talya, no worries at all! I honestly feel like people really overthink these plants - they are super easy once you almost stop caring for them so much 😂 Super low-maintenance; just decent filtered light, lots of humidity and warmth, and soil-monitored watering 💚
@@TheJungleHaven thank you! I'm going to try less watering & some better lighting. Also - just a side note, I think it's so cool & nice that you take the time to interact with your community in the comments. Keep doing you! 🌵🪴 see you next video!
Omg.. I moved a couple of months ago and where I lived was on the 8th floor. I had an enclosed ledge outside my windows and my spider plants thrive out there year round. Even the baby clippings all grew like crazy. Well since I moved into my new place I can’t keep them outside although I do sit them out on my porch daily. But out of 7 beautiful plants , I’m down to only two. All the others died. Any reason why?
We recently was gifted a healthy spider plant and ive been trying so hard to keep it just as healthy, but its looking more wilty and ive had to remove cream pebble looking substance that started growing on the dirt near the baseof the plant. I water it once a week, about a cup of water. Maybe thats too much water?
Hiya! I was wondering how you keep your spider plant clean.. I've heard they really don't like wet leaves, as it gives them crown rot. Any tips? Thank you!
Great video. When I got my curly spider plant it had a few spider babies which I cut to create more plants and it’s never given me any more babies. How do I get it to create more baby spiders?
Pushing out babies requires quite a lot of energy from your plant, and they can go for months on end without doing it (even if the plant is healthy and mature). Making sure it's got all the right nutrients, particularly over growing season, and the warmth/light/humidity are all good is the best way to help encourage it to produce more little babies 💚
If my spider plant has little brown bumps (bugs?) on stems and some leaves making the plant sticky... what can I spray on it? Diluted vinegar? Soapy water?
My spider plant that I have had for six years is dying 😭. I recently moved and there is only a small window in my bedroom with no window sill. I have her on the refrigerator but initially when I was moving in I had her. On the floor need the heater which I think started to have her take a turn for the worst along with no sunlight. I want to try to get her a grow light can you tell me which one would work best? Red and blue or full spectrum? Do you think the grow light can save her. 💔
I inherited an old Spider Plant and I don’t know its history. The leaves are very floppy, with the area where the leaves and roots meet being the pivot point. I think the leaves could easily break off as one unit. What do you suggest I do?
Hi thanks for your video ! I am now subscribed to your channel ! I am from Alberta Canada I have had a very large veriegated spider plant. We moved 2 years ago from a house to a condo. I didn’t have room for the big mama so 😢 I had to give her away to a family member. I did however keep a baby. So far she has not produced any babies. Is there a certain time frame , or age that they start to produce babies?
I was given a yellowish-looking spider plant. After about a week it started turning black on me. I repotted it and realized it was 3 large plants in one pot so now I have 3 spider plants. Two have babies attempting to grow. What caused the blackening? This is my first time with a spider plant.
Great video. Very ussefull actyally but... I don´t know why, but every time I propagate any spider plant by tacking of the litle plants they push out, I put it in water and it pushes out ruttes perfectly, but every time I place it in to soil when the roots are developed it starts drying out and after a few days it passes out😱😭😓. Any tips??????? It was great to see you. Bye. 😜🤪😝😍😘
Hiya! When you first pot cuttings up it's important to keep them hydrated as their roots adjust and not allow the soil to dry out. I also always use the water I propagated them in to water them once they're potted up so they have a little bit of their old environment 🙃
Spider plants are not easy to keep at all. Mine was fine when I first got it, but it's been a fight to keep it healthy since. Hardly any leaves left and all of them brown/yellow. Finally given up and slung it in the bin this morning. Not one to do again.
Hey just found you. Was wondering if you could talk about spider plant flowers? If you’ve covered it in a different video my apologies and I hope I find it lol.
Thank you for the video. My plant attracted so many ants and someone told me to put the plant in the garden for a day so the ants run away as they don’t like heat and sunlight. But unfortunately my spider plant after being left in the garden for one day is now drooping. I’m not sure what to do. Could you please help me?
@@Englandmw Have a look at the glass Ikea cabinets - a lot of people have turned them into beautiful grow cabinets! The model called "milsbo" is my personal favourite!
It's summer, My spider plant leaves turned brown and weak, then started to drop off. so i watered it more and put in balcony where afternoon sun will come but the condition didn't improve and all the leaves are lost now and I don't know if the root is good or not anymore. Is there any way I can save it? Someone please reply
Definitely check the roots (your plant may still be saveable even with no leaves), but it could also be down to heat/lack of humidity or too much direct sunlight. If you suspect root rot, I made a video on how to use Hydrogen Peroxide to fix this 💚
Hi Claire I have had a spider plant cutting in water since last November. It really needs to find a pot. I am concerned at this point that if I pot it up it will die. Do you think it's OK to transfer it to a pot with dirt or leave it alone?
You could maybe do a transfer to semi-hydro to start it off as it adjusts (such as leca, pon or even sphagnum moss)? That's what I tend to do for plants that have been in water for a reeeeeally long time that I want to pot. On the other hand, if it seems happy and it's got a good root system, you could just leave it in it's water and invest in a hydroponic fertiliser... I propagated some pothos cuttings in water a few years ago that are all now hapily growing 100% hydroponic cause I never potted them up 😂💚
This is so helpful I’ve been keeping every single baby spiderplant my main one has birthed, and I’m building an empire
I laughed so hard at your comment. Yes it's exactly like an empire!!! I can't bear to give any away amd when I do everyone already has a spider plant lollll😂😂
Hehe me too it’s making me so happy my plane also actually came from my best friend her spider plant

Think I’ve killed mine this way. Gonna start over this weekend.

Rotate your spider plant every time you water. Repot deeper.

I heard if the roots get to be 1/2” - 1” then you can trim and propagate them.
Can you propagate using the stem the baby spider is attached?

@@TheJungleHaven Thanks soooo much!!! Hi from Spain ❤️❤️😘
Thank you for information
Thanks for a great channel Claire, should I snip the brown bits on the end of my spider plant leaves?
Thank you! Yes, I'll personally always cut off any browning tips 💚
Question - when the plant has its babies, do you leave the long stem on the mother plant, or do you chop it off for a fresh one to grow?
It's really up to you, but often once you've harvested the babies it will naturally die back 💚
Spider plants are not easy to keep at all. Mine was fine when I first got it, but it's been a fight to keep it healthy since. Hardly any leaves left and all of them brown/yellow. Finally given up and slung it in the bin this morning. Not one to do again.
I am facing the same problem
Put a quartz obelisk by it and play some classical music 🎶
How do you fertilize the pot?
Hi, my spider plants look like they're trying to escape their pot from the top, any thoughts? TY
Hey do they die after a while. Like they just don’t grow anymore .?
Do you plant one spider plant baby per pot? I have some babies growing off of my large one.
What a good soil mix ??
Can you just leave the pups on? Mine have like 60 or so. I don’t know if that’s good or not lol
Thanks ❤
Hey just found you. Was wondering if you could talk about spider plant flowers? If you’ve covered it in a different video my apologies and I hope I find it lol.
I've had my Spider plant for several years and still have no pups. Any suggestions???
How long do they take to grow babies please?
Can you put more than one baby spider in one pot
Do they like bulb light xx
Yes they can absolutely be grown under grow lights 💚
I have 4curlys and 4 reg spiderplants babies ((they're taking over)
For a balanced fertilizer would you recommend 1/4 strength or 1/2 strength when fertilizing for the first time? Thanks😊
I'd say half strength would be absolutely fine. It's just a precaution, but always better safe than sorry ☺️
How can I trim down my spider plant, it's way overgrown
Thank you for the video. My plant attracted so many ants and someone told me to put the plant in the garden for a day so the ants run away as they don’t like heat and sunlight. But unfortunately my spider plant after being left in the garden for one day is now drooping. I’m not sure what to do. Could you please help me?
Remove all the soil, wash the plant and repot it with new soil.
Hi Claire Where did you buy cabinet and grow tent?
Hiya - I actually just found it on Ebay (and it was dead cheap) 💚
@@TheJungleHaven Thanks Claire I was hoping to order. Yes you got a great deal :D I'm a Brit myself but living in the US
@@Englandmw Have a look at the glass Ikea cabinets - a lot of people have turned them into beautiful grow cabinets! The model called "milsbo" is my personal favourite!

Can cactus soil be used for these too?
It's summer, My spider plant leaves turned brown and weak, then started to drop off. so i watered it more and put in balcony where afternoon sun will come but the condition didn't improve and all the leaves are lost now and I don't know if the root is good or not anymore. Is there any way I can save it? Someone please reply
Definitely check the roots (your plant may still be saveable even with no leaves), but it could also be down to heat/lack of humidity or too much direct sunlight. If you suspect root rot, I made a video on how to use Hydrogen Peroxide to fix this 💚
@@TheJungleHaven It died. I think it's because of the heat. haha. got a new one tho! thanks for replying!
Hi Claire I have had a spider plant cutting in water since last November. It really needs to find a pot. I am concerned at this point that if I pot it up it will die. Do you think it's OK to transfer it to a pot with dirt or leave it alone?
You could maybe do a transfer to semi-hydro to start it off as it adjusts (such as leca, pon or even sphagnum moss)? That's what I tend to do for plants that have been in water for a reeeeeally long time that I want to pot. On the other hand, if it seems happy and it's got a good root system, you could just leave it in it's water and invest in a hydroponic fertiliser... I propagated some pothos cuttings in water a few years ago that are all now hapily growing 100% hydroponic cause I never potted them up 😂💚
@@TheJungleHaven thanks so much I think I may leave it fully hydro and go to my local garden center for some hydro fertilizer
Do spider plants really clean the air
And genius ideas.
As soon as I put mine inside they turn yellow. When I put it back outside they turn green.
Does anyone know why spider plant leaves would get really soft and limp and Not springy?
Why dose my plante bend and almost breaks thx
