I love how plant people acknowledge their plants as living beings like a dog or a cat “he doesn’t like it” “he might be in shock, I hope he’ll be ok” “if he doesn’t like it he’ll let you know”
You probably dont care but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me!
@Terry Rudy Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Just want to say that I really appreciate you giving temperature measurements in both Fahrenheit and Celsius - it makes things so much easier for me to understand. Subscribed!
You’re right about not overwatering it however if you mist it even daily including the pups your plant will thrive and throw out more pups for you. a little bit of pampering never hurt any plants, you know
Also, if u wanna mist them, don't forget to let them get lots of airflow! I bought a small fan from amazon and I like giving my plants a light breeze especially if I mist them
I found you just in time to save my neighbors spider plant. She was having a time with the leaves turning yellow so I sent the video to her and she had put all her spider babies in water and we both are using rain water or bottled water. Thank you so much 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you!!! So much for your insight! I was perusing the 99 cent store for some tape and they actually had some small potted plants. So I picked up my spider plant, Herbert Leifington and his wife Pamela Leifington (she’s an English Vine)
Make sure you can some places don't allow you to collect rain water and will even fine you for it. Just giving you a heads up so you don't end up with police at your door.
Love spider plants ❤️ I have nine, all propagated from the variegated mother plant and they now all have their own babies. Also got a lemon one but no babies yet 😔. Really like the format of your videos Emma, keep up the great work 😊
Recently became a plant Mom - Started with 3 deck plants 4 weeks ago, and now I have 10 outdoor deck plants, and 6 indoor plants with 4 succulents on the way. Obsessed with this lifestyle for sure’ Thank you for all this info! Also just so you know, all though the snake plant isn’t poisonous for humans and animals it apparently can be a psychedelic for cats 😂 seriously we’re about to adopt a cat and my research about my house plants found this 😂 Great channel - officially subscribed!
Ooh yay! Welcome to plant parenthood! Hahah it certainly can be a bit of an addiction! But at least it's a healthy one! So glad you enjoyed the video! I didn't know that about snake plants! That's certainly a fun fact! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing!
I live in Oklahoma. Every spider plant I bought and kept inside died….although I’m sure I over watered them. Then a friend gave me a pot of babies, or more like teenagers, that she had outside. She always puts them out from spring-fall. So….I put it outside last summer and it did fine. This summer I put it out and it’s been 100 degrees F and over several times. This plant has gone crazy. Babies and lush green. And the babies I took off from last year are getting big and happy as can be. They are on an east facing porch and get sun in the morning but not much cuz there’s a big oak tree on the lawn. They are mostly covered from rain but if the rain is gentle, I put them in it. They don’t do well in the winter inside. But come spring, I prune and set them outside until fall and they are happy campers. I do set them in water when the temperature is over 100*s. This is the first spider plant I’ve ever had that looked so beautiful and lived more then 9 months. Lol. In fact. I was never going to buy another one but I took the gift and I’m so happy I did. I love these plants now.
My spider plant started turning yellow on some leaves. Thank you for the tip about the kind of water, in my city the faucet water has fluoride. I have a few babies in a glass and they're loving life.
I have used my Spider Plant for Christmas/birthday gifts before... I take a small mason jar, put in a spider plant pup (with roots) with enough distilled water to cover the roots, and you have a brand new plant that will grow for 4-6 weeks or so sealed in the jar before it NEEDS to be replanted in soil... and then you have a cool new spider plant that will be making it's own babies and cleaning the air in your home before too long. Granted, your recipient needs to appreciate the "little things" and not be expecting a brand new iPhone or something, haha ;)
welp after thinking brown leaf tips where from over or under watering i now know its my tap water which they used to be ok with and now they are not. thank you
You obviously haven fallen for him, your spider plant even dancing with him ☺ i just got one today and just love her, i think we are going to have a lot of babies😊
Im am here for the editing!!! Thank you so much for labeling the video and breaking it up the way you did. This was awesome when trying to find one piece of info! Thank you for your time and insight :)
Beauregard Parish Louisiana I planted some outside (green, and green striped) in the ground they did surprisingly well while some leaves died during the winter the plants would come back very strong during the summer. I now use them for border plants around my flower bed. One of the spiderettes anchored a root into a pine tree 2 years ago & is still there
@@GoodGrowing its removes the chlorine but I just read where fluoride is the real enemy to some plants like monocots. Not that easy to remove fluoride from tap water though 🙁
@@zachmorris5688 yeah i've heard the same.. but I can't really buy distilled water here because it's so expensive and I don't have an outside area to collect rain water... so sat out tap water will have to do!
I wish people would stop labelling spider plants as "easy to care for" because they are not. I've had many and have not managed to keep them. Only today I've put my last half dead two out in my UK garden to fend for themselves, I genuinely don't care if they live or die, I've tried everything. Currently looking online for an imitation plastic one for the house, surely I'll be able to keep this one alive.
Hahaha! I had the same problem and said the same thing. I killed 5 spider plants in 6 years and swore off them….wasn’t ever going to buy another. Then a friend gave me a pot with about four somewhat older babies in it. I didn’t even want them. When I told her they die, she said put it in a room and forget about it. Don’t fuss over it and don’t water it. So. I got a water meter and only watered it when it was completely dry. She also said to put it outside for spring, summer, and fall. Well. I did that last year and this year and it is doing fabulous. Babies and lush leaves. And it’s been over 100 degrees for several days with lows in the 80’s. It gets a small amount of sun in the morning….east facing. I prune off leaves that don’t look good….broken in the wind or whatever. It’s doing great. I’ve cut off and potted 6 babies and they are doing fabulous. Soon I’ll be giving people plants! Lol. Maybe this plant is doing so well cuz it’s local, home grown etc. It’s mother tuffs it out every year in crazy Oklahoma winds and heat so the babies I got were used to that. But! Don’t fuss over them and don’t water till they’re dry……..unless it’s 100 degrees and they’re outside. Then I keep them a bit moist. I can’t tell you how happy I am with this plant…..the longest living spider I’ve ever had….two summers and one winter so far. I love it…….and I’m getting more with the babies. It is so beautiful. Keep trying. It is rewarding when it works. Good luck.
just got one of these and a cat palm i love them! i want to live in a forest room lmao didnt realize how big cat palm gets woops lmao all the succulents i got from the store the other day are sad, went to check my zebra and noticed it had root rot and was long gone T_T
Oooh so exciting! Yeah the house jungle vibes are the best ones imo. Sorry the succulents aren't doing well. Did you get them from a grocery store? They tend to not give their plants the right care and often overwater (especially with succulents!) If you can change the soil of others to a dryer mix you may be able to save them before root rot! Best of luck!
my first plant is a spider plant we have three in my house but my mom gave me one to put in my room, he’s huge and i took a “baby” from him and i am growing one myself!! i’m rlly excited
I started with some I got that were pups in a zip lock bag now my upstairs bathroom looks like a jungle as they grow and reproduce so fast I have a large sky light in that bathroom Every plant in my house is huge and looks like something out of a movie.I think the water without chlorine is one thing but most important is the soil as I mix my own to match the plants natural origin.Every one thinks I am crazy but they all say I have the greenest thumb of anyone.I am a Plumber.Go figure how that happens.
@@Irin31 I use Grow mix which is just peat moss with pearlite and I mix in some sandy soil which is like a Florida type mix then some pine bark chips and some Miracle grow container mix.The way you know its good is when you water it the water drains down fast.Just imagine and you will figure it.And always save your old tropical soils that are from Florida because they are different.
@@Irin31 Your welcome Irina and also Never use wood chips on any if your plants only use the bark because wood chips absorb all the nutrients from the soil especially nitrogen.
Glad to know I'm not the only one that has killed a spider plant. Not that I was trying to, I just felt really bad and thought "I must be a real dumbass if I can't even keep a spider plant alive"
I have been a plant mom for 15 plus yrs. I have been caring for them since b4 youtube existed and b4 there was so much info readily available on the internet. I have made "harder" plants to care for THRIVE! BUT...for some odd reason I can't keep a spider plant alive for the life of me lol. Probably doesn't help my kitties try and eat them all.😹😻🌱🌱
I feel the same about them! I didn't really mention it in this video but ever since this plant, all of mine go brown and die! I like to blame it on the water in my area but I'm sure it's more than just that. Glad to hear it's not just me!
I have challenges keeping them looking good at the Garden centre I thought it was its intolerance to Fluoride 😬 It’s frustrating when other staff over water the plants 😖 I allow them to dry out between watering.
Welcome! That's an areca palm. Unfortunately it got caught in my battle with thrips and I don't have it anymore! I do have a video about kentia palms and their care is fairly similar so check it out! th-cam.com/video/jDOByZknKyk/w-d-xo.html
There is another kind called a pineapple spider plant. It's foliage is wider more upright (like the top of a pineapple), and the new shoots are variegated, but turn solid green as they mature.
It might technically be “non toxic” to cats but it is similar to catnip in that they are OBSESSED with it and makes them slightly hallucinate. If your cat munches on it they may be whacked out, vomit, or have diarrhea so try to keep it away from them
Can you tell us how you take care of your variegated Rubber Plant I just got one and would love to not kill it with my black thumb. Lol. Loving your videos!
We have a very big spider plant that we recently just brought inside for the fall winter season. We put it in a large pot because it is a pretty large spider plant. Where are you headed outside hanging it was really healthy. The leaves are turning a yellow color and browning on the tip and some of the the leaves appear dead as they’re brown. I would like to know what we did wrong or how we can maybe bring it back to life
I have two spider plants. One is doing great but the second one have 4 leaves left and she had like 15 lol. Bad soil, one that keeps wet for a long time, repoted it, then watered less but she came to 4 leaves left. I hope she makes it. The first one's soil is better, dries off quicker
@@kristianlewis5520 So far I've never had to repot any of my cacti. I think you should probably wear gloves to help prevent getting poked. But other than that I'm not too sure sorry!
Thank you! So glad that I could help! Ooh yeah I just got an alocasia gageana so I'm learning to take care of it properly now! Or if you're talking about an alocasia polly/amazonica, I've got a video for those up already! :)
My plant has no drainage because it was like a hanging one but I haven’t had time to actually hang it up so I just put it on the window sill and the root rot thing sounds about right the bottom bit is turning brown 🤷🏻♀️not sure what to do
Hmm that doesn't sound good! The way I around that with my hanging plants is use the nursery pot within the decorative hanging pot. So when I water, the nursery pot drains into the hanging one and I can dump that out if I need to. Best of luck!
I kill all my plants. I love how nice they look in the house and all the air purifying benefits. So Im trying to learn to take care one at a time until I get the hang of it. What kind of fertilizer do they like?
Yeah houseplants are seriously amazing! And everyone can grow them with a little practice! I'm not super versed on fertiliser, but plan on doing a lot of research and a video about it in the spring. Currently I use the powdered Miracle-Grow at 1/2 strength! Best of luck!!
I water thoroughly once the soil is pretty much all dry. I don't really mist this one at all as average household humidity is fine for them! Best of luck! and thanks!!
Thank you lovely person. How do you clean the leaves? I used a sponge with a tiny bit of dish soap to do it but maybe there is a better way would love to know.
Could you tell us what type of soil, fertilizer and watering techniques work best? For example, could you use one of those bulb things that waters the roots or should you just pour water on top of the soil?
I personally just water the top of the soil. The soil is basic potting medium with a bit of extra perlite. As for fertiliser I talk about that in the video but I used to use Miracle Grow all purpose but now use Liquid Gold Leaf
Yeah I can defo do a soil video. But tbh I use the same stuff for just about everything.. I'm sure that I could be better about it though! I'll do some research! Thanks for the suggestion! :)
I dont really like the american accent but gosh could i listen to you forever!! Thats honestly one of the biggest voice compliments. Youre ao smart. Im subscribed
Could i use one in my snake tank (pot sticked to the corner) , it would get indirect sunlight since my tank is almost in front of my window but fare from it . Would it be adapted ? Because i have babies growing and i planned using some for this terrarium and for my fish tankd
I recently bought a spider plant and after a week of having it, I watered the plant and now it is browning at the tips. I haven’t repotted it or give it soil, why is my plant doing this?
I love how plant people acknowledge their plants as living beings like a dog or a cat “he doesn’t like it” “he might be in shock, I hope he’ll be ok” “if he doesn’t like it he’ll let you know”
I name mine... And talk to them. Yep, I'm one of those lol

Where are you headed outside hanging it was really healthy. The leaves are turning a yellow color and browning on the tip and some of the the leaves appear dead as they’re brown. I would like to know what we did wrong or how we can maybe bring it back to life
FETUS EMMA😍😍
I love your energy, thanks for the info!
Thanks! So glad you enjoyed :)
Pet friendly plant video please!!
I think I have a pet friendly plant video actually! Have a look on my channel ;)
I have a plant like that now i know the name spider plant thank u for your tips
Ahh wonderful! Thanks for watching :)
Funny video🤣 thanks newbie to spider plants.
Thanks for watching! And best of luck with your new spider plants!
Very informative video, good job.
Thank you! And thanks for watching :)
@@GoodGrowing Awe np. Your reactions to the random noises were pretty funny. Subscribed to learn more and good luck with everything.
@@OGAaronAlton Haha yeah that flat had the strangest sounds outside :) Thanks so much for subscribing!
It would have been nice to know what fertilizer you use. 10,10,10 or 20,15,10 etc
I have two spider plants. One is doing great but the second one have 4 leaves left and she had like 15 lol. Bad soil, one that keeps wet for a long time, repoted it, then watered less but she came to 4 leaves left. I hope she makes it. The first one's soil is better, dries off quicker
Ooh good luck
Just subscribed. Looking forward to all your vids 👍
Thanks for watching and subscribing :) Anything in particular you'd like to see?
@@GoodGrowing got a few plants here all all sorts but any tips on how to re pot cactus's? Not looking forward to doing them lol
@@kristianlewis5520 So far I've never had to repot any of my cacti. I think you should probably wear gloves to help prevent getting poked. But other than that I'm not too sure sorry!
I have a bigger one and it looks good.. but many leaves semi break in the middle and hang semi weird...
I enjoyed that video; very helpful. Could you do one about elephant ear plants?
Thank you! So glad that I could help! Ooh yeah I just got an alocasia gageana so I'm learning to take care of it properly now! Or if you're talking about an alocasia polly/amazonica, I've got a video for those up already! :)
Is it possible to recover a dying spider plant ? Or should toss it and try again ? How do you know if it revivable?
It depends how it's dying really. But with spider plants I've always tossed and tried again as they're pretty easy to get your hands on
Very helpful. Thank you
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
My plant has no drainage because it was like a hanging one but I haven’t had time to actually hang it up so I just put it on the window sill and the root rot thing sounds about right the bottom bit is turning brown 🤷🏻♀️not sure what to do
Hmm that doesn't sound good! The way I around that with my hanging plants is use the nursery pot within the decorative hanging pot. So when I water, the nursery pot drains into the hanging one and I can dump that out if I need to. Best of luck!
I kill all my plants. I love how nice they look in the house and all the air purifying benefits. So Im trying to learn to take care one at a time until I get the hang of it. What kind of fertilizer do they like?
Yeah houseplants are seriously amazing! And everyone can grow them with a little practice! I'm not super versed on fertiliser, but plan on doing a lot of research and a video about it in the spring. Currently I use the powdered Miracle-Grow at 1/2 strength! Best of luck!!
How do you water them you water them thoroughly or just spray them with little water pls let me know thanks for the great information
I water thoroughly once the soil is pretty much all dry. I don't really mist this one at all as average household humidity is fine for them! Best of luck! and thanks!!
@@GoodGrowing thank you so much for replying
Thank you lovely person. How do you clean the leaves? I used a sponge with a tiny bit of dish soap to do it but maybe there is a better way would love to know.
Sounds like you're doing the right thing. Since the leaves are so small, they can be a bit of a pain to clean
Wonder if its color is getting lighter
I like your videos!
Could you tell us what type of soil, fertilizer and watering techniques work best? For example, could you use one of those bulb things that waters the roots or should you just pour water on top of the soil?
I personally just water the top of the soil. The soil is basic potting medium with a bit of extra perlite. As for fertiliser I talk about that in the video but I used to use Miracle Grow all purpose but now use Liquid Gold Leaf
Great video - thank you. You mention fertiliser...what do you use?
Thanks :) At that time I was using All Purpose Miracle Gro but now I use Liquid Gold Leaf
I use filtered water for my spider plant and still have tons of brown tips. Could it be that my house is to dry..?
If you overwater a spider plant once will it get root rot? Or does it take multiple overwaterings?
It takes a couple of overwaterings, but if you're super concerned, pull it out and have a look at the roots :)
Is spider plant and lourdes plant the same? If not, what's the difference between them?
i am new to spider plant. So is tap water not good to use?
Can you do marble Pothos
I have a video on all epipremnum aureum which is what a marble pothos is! Check it out :)
Hey quick question - can you do an episode about proper soil for certain types of plants?
Yeah I can defo do a soil video. But tbh I use the same stuff for just about everything.. I'm sure that I could be better about it though! I'll do some research! Thanks for the suggestion! :)
Thanks for the tips and your really funny
Aww thank you so much!
Thank you. I just got a baby from my local buy nothing group. And this is my first plant😍🤩🥰👍
I hope she makes it.
Do you name your plants?
Ooh good luck! You've got this! I don't really name my plants tbh. But I think that's in part because I have so many I don't think I could remember!
Do they grow better in hanging planters?
I don't think they'll grow any better or worse tbh. As long as they've got the right conditions they should be happy either way
I love how u refer to your plant with pronouns it’s so cute
Hahah thanks :) strange its almost always male pronouns too??
Can I pot the babies next to the mother plant in the same pot?
Yeah for sure!
I dont really like the american accent but gosh could i listen to you forever!! Thats honestly one of the biggest voice compliments. Youre ao smart. Im subscribed
Aww thank you so much! And thank you for watching and subscribing
Could i use one in my snake tank (pot sticked to the corner) , it would get indirect sunlight since my tank is almost in front of my window but fare from it . Would it be adapted ? Because i have babies growing and i planned using some for this terrarium and for my fish tankd
I recently bought a spider plant and after a week of having it, I watered the plant and now it is browning at the tips. I haven’t repotted it or give it soil, why is my plant doing this?
