Aunt Zhang grows spider plants, rotating the pot once every 10 days, and in two months they grow wildly into a waterfall

Spider plants stay green all year round and also have the ability to purify the air, so they are very popular. On top of that, they are easy to grow and highly adaptable, so basically every flower lover who grows plants must keep a pot of spider plant. The leaves of the spider plant are slender and soft, and small plantlets grow out from the leaf axils, hanging down from the edge of the pot, spreading and trailing gracefully. Hanging it in the living room or on the balcony suits the setting very well and adds a lot of vitality.

Although spider plants are easy to grow, yellow leaves, dry tips and black tips often occur. So getting a spider plant to fill its pot and grow into a waterfall is also a craft. Next, let me share how veteran flower growers grow spider plants~ If you find it useful, you can save it!

1. Rotate the pot once every 10 days

We know that spider plants like a semi-shaded environment, so in spring and autumn they should avoid direct strong sunlight. But without sunlight, photosynthesis cannot occur, and the leaves will turn yellow, so you must give spider plants plenty of "scattered light." Many flower lovers just leave their newly bought spider plant on the balcony and ignore it, but this is actually not enough. Light can only reach the spider plant from one angle. This is also why, after a long time, you will notice that the half of the spider plant facing the sun has wide leaves, is glossy green, and has even put out small spider plants.

Rotate the pot regularly so that every angle of the spider plant can evenly receive scattered light. Only in this way can the whole pot of spider plant grow wildly and more harmoniously, and look more vibrant.

2. Often mist the spider plant and clean its leaves

As a foliage plant itself, what we look at is its glossy green, vibrant leaves. Because spider plants like a humid environment, not only should the potting soil stay moist, but the air humidity around the spider plant should also be increased. The best method is to mist the spider plant more often; it is recommended to do it once every two days, spraying in the morning and evening. As mentioned at the beginning, spider plants have a purifying ability, so they often absorb dust from the air, and over time a layer of dust will form on the leaves. This affects the transpiration of the spider plant and is not good for growth. So clean the leaves often to keep them glossy.

3. Often loosen the soil for the spider plant and apply organic fertilizer

Spider plants are foliage potted plants that are relatively tolerant of fertilizer. If fertilizer and water are insufficient, black tips and dry tips easily appear, and the leaves will turn yellow, losing their ornamental value. It is recommended to loosen the soil for the spider plant every month to maintain soil breathability, and at the same time apply some organic fertilizer, so that the spider plant will grow more smoothly. For fertilizing, you can appropriately use organic fertilizer fermented from bone meal, eggshells, soybean cake, etc. After fermentation, just bury it directly in the potting soil of the spider plant. This can make the spider plant's leaves glossy and quickly produce new shoots.
