Watering

Water the spider plant modestly each day, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Overwatering can harm the plant, so it’s essential to maintain a balance.

Fertilization

Feeding the plant with natural or specific fertilizers once a month directly into the pot will promote healthy growth.

Pruning

Regular pruning isn’t usually necessary, but it’s important to remove dry leaves periodically to keep the plant looking its best.

Pest Control

Spider plants are susceptible to mite infestations. To address this, mist the plant once a week with a neem oil solution until the mites are eliminated.

Repotting

Repotting should be done only when the plant outgrows its current pot. Transferring it to a larger container will give the roots more space to grow and help the plant thrive.

By following these care tips, you can enjoy a healthy and vibrant spider plant that not only beautifies your home but also helps purify the air.
