Why are the ends of my spider plant turning brown?

It's a pretty healthy plant.What can I do to stop this?

Why are the ends of my spider plant turning brown?
usually it's due to the fluoride/chlorine added to city water...to stop it, leave water sit out for a few days before using it on your plants...or I use my aquarium water when I do water changes
Reply:The two main reasons for this are overwatering and underwatering.


Spider plants like plenty of light. If the leaves on your plant start to go very pale it either needs more light or a feed.


When your plant is sprouting mini plants on long stalks, this is a sign of a healthy plant. These little plants can be laid on compost and pinned down with a hair clip. Do not separate from the parent plant until the little one has rooted. All it will need is watering.
Reply:I have the same problem with mine and sometimes its just cold air they maybe got to it just cut that part off or take out the whole leaf it will grow back.

you might check this site for help... i would wonder if your not over watering it?
Reply:because of the chemicals in the water..use distilled water and that should help that.
Reply:there three reasons for this happening, the first is that your plant requires ultra-violet from the sun and most spider plants are ketp inside. 2 is over watering which will eventually turn the tips brown and then rot the roots. 3 is that watering alone will keep them alive but a good plant food will keep them healthy and free from browning. Best of luck.. Try repotting in a John Innings mulsh type compost but be carefull I did this and it grew 4 foot across.
