It is alive but the spider legs won't stand up anymore. Does it need to be trimmed. Did I over/under water it. ?
My spider plant has gone flat. What can I do to revive it.?
trim off all the "babies" and give it a good trim - do not replant now - wait till spring if it is overly potbound (spiders like to be a little bound) light fertilzer now and then again in spring. good bright light and even temp. Should do well!
Reply:With my spiderplants I fingerpinched any browned ends and pulled any dried brown spears. Majority of the time if you have let the soil dry out to often the soil shrinks. Simply add some soil to compensate the holes and always water early in the morning or when the sun goes down. As far as the babies of the plant simply cut and have them sit in a vase of bowl of clean water. For added filtration, add planting charcoal to the water. Charcoal helps keep the water fresher.
Reply:If it's yellow, you may have over-watered it. If it's limp and pale, you may need to water it.
It also may need a bigger pot, better dirt or plant food sticks.
Reply:Sunshine helped an old spiderplant that I had. Is it getting enough sun?
Reply:Lift the pot. Light = dry, aerate (poke holes in the soil) and water. Heavy = wet, drain and allow to dry out.
