How to grow pearl spider plant

Humidity requirements for pearl spider plant cultivation

When it comes to humidity, the first thing that comes to mind should be watering. However, the humidity here is not only the humidity of the soil where the pearl spider plant grows, but also the air humidity in the growing environment. The pearl spider plant is a plant with a very high water content in its flesh and leaves, so the pearl spider plant is very drought-resistant. There is a saying that when cultivating pearl spider plants, it is better to have a drier environment than a humid air, which is what we often say, it is better to be dry than wet. The pearl spider plant does not have high requirements for water and does not need excessive watering. It can even survive in a slightly dry environment, but not needing excessive watering does not mean that it does not need watering. Under normal circumstances, watering once every two to three days is sufficient.

Soil requirements for pearl spider plant cultivation

The root system of the pearl spider plant is very shallow. When planting, the most basic requirement for the soil is looseness and breathability. If it is not loose and breathable, the soil will easily become compacted. As mentioned in the article just now, the root system of the pearl spider plant is very shallow. In this case, if the soil is compacted, it will be more difficult for the pearl spider plant to absorb nutrients in the soil. Therefore, the second requirement for the soil is fertility. Only fertile soil is more conducive to the growth of the pearl spider plant.

The requirements of light for the cultivation of pearl spider plants

Pearl Chlorophytum is not a plant that likes sunlight and is not suitable for exposure to the sun. If it is winter and the weather is cold, the sunlight is not too strong and you can directly place it outdoors for cultivation. However, if it is summer, coupled with the shade-loving nature of the Pearl Chlorophytum itself, it is not suitable for being exposed to the sun outside and you need to shade it when necessary.
