How to grow spider plants well

1. Lighting

If you want spider plants to grow well, light is very important. They don’t like too strong sunlight and prefer semi-shaded environments, but too dark environments will also affect their growth. Light that is too strong or too dark is not suitable for their growth. If exposed to strong sunlight in summer, the leaves will easily be burned, so avoid strong sunlight.

2. Watering

Chlorophytum needs a lot of water during its peak growth period from March to September, so it needs to be watered in time. In autumn, its cold resistance needs to be improved, so watering should be reduced. In summer, it can be watered twice a day, in spring and autumn, once a day is enough, and in winter, watering does not need to be too frequent, about once every 4-5 days is enough. There will be a lot of dust indoors, so you should spray the branches and leaves in time to avoid affecting its normal growth. Frequent spraying can also ensure that the branches and leaves are more colorful and beautiful.

3. Fertilization

Fertilization is crucial to growing spider plants well. It is relatively resistant to fertilizer. If the amount of fertilizer is too little, it will cause the leaves to turn yellow. Organic fertilizer can be applied about once every 7-10 days from spring to autumn. Do not apply excessive nitrogen fertilizer to golden heart or golden edge plants.

4. Repotting

Repotting is also beneficial to the growth of spider plants. Generally, the time for repotting is chosen in spring, when the temperature is more suitable and conducive to its growth. When repotting, you need to prepare the culture soil and cut off unnecessary roots as well as yellow and dead leaves.
