The spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum) is a green plant loved by many flower growers. Its leaves are long and narrow like an orchid, drooping downward, evergreen all year round, with a unique and elegant form, making it very suitable for placing indoors or hanging on windowsills.

The basics of spider plant care must be done well. Today, Huar will introduce to everyone these 2 things to do well when planting spider plants, and they will grow like crazy, with baby spider plants shooting out nonstop!

1. Choosing a pot

Spider plants can survive in any container used as a flower pot, but if you want them to grow better, fill the pot, and send out baby spider plants, then you need to be more careful when choosing a pot. You can use a clay pot or a purple clay pot to increase breathability, allowing the roots to breathe better and promoting growth.

Also, the root system of spider plants is relatively thick and well developed, so when choosing a pot, use a larger and deeper one, so that the spider plant has enough space to live.

2. Choosing base fertilizer

Spider plants like fertilizer and are tolerant of it. During care, base fertilizer is very important. If the base fertilizer is insufficient, no matter how much you fertilize and water, it cannot grow very well. Also, when choosing base fertilizer, you must consider its lasting effect and drainage. The best choice is crushed bone bits. Bones are rich in elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which can make spider plants grow more vigorously and send out baby spider plants.

Specific method: Collect some bones from chicken, duck, fish, etc., first rinse them with boiling water 2-3 times, then soak them overnight. The next day, put them in a pressure cooker and cook for about one hour, so that the meat and bones are completely separated. Then crush the bones, the finer the better, and put them under the sun to bake. After they are completely dry, they can be used.

First spread a layer of soil at the bottom of the flower pot, then spread the crushed bone bits. According to the size of the flower pot, control it to about 5cm, then continue filling with soil until the spider plant is planted.
