A collection of spider plant pruning methods, no need to worry about yellow leaves or rotten roots

If the leaf tips turn yellow, trim the yellow leaves

The leaves of the spider plant turn yellow, and the tips of the leaves turn yellow, which means that the leaves of the spider plant have aged and can no longer carry out photosynthesis. At this time, you need to prune the spider plant, cut off its dry leaves and old leaves, and encourage it to sprout more new leaves.

Severe yellowing of leaves, shaving and re-growth

Sometimes, the yellowing of spider plant leaves is very serious. At this time, simply pruning the leaves will not have any effect. The spider plant needs to be beheaded, most of the leaves removed, and it will grow new leaves.

Root rot, root pruning

The roots of spider plants grow very fast, so there will be many old roots and rotten roots. These roots take up a lot of space in the flowerpot and also restrict the growth of spider plants. At this time, you can repot and trim the roots.

1. First, take out the spider plant. Hold the rhizome of the spider plant with one hand and hold the flowerpot with the other hand to take out the spider plant.
