Tips for a Thick and Vibrant Spider Plant: Revealing 4 Strategies for a Lush, Bushy Spider Plant
If you're downright fed up with that skinny spider plant, don't fret! We've got your back with sweet tips to help you grow a bushy, happy spider pal. 🌱🕸️
1. Shine on, you leggy spider! 🌞
Leggy plants screamin' for more sunlight? Move 'em to a brighter spot! If your plants are in a miserably dingleberry north-faced window, relocate 'em to a west-facing kitchen or living room window with a dash of indirect light. In no time, your spider hairs will be all lush and fabulous!
2. Quench your thirsty spider 💧
Thinkin' your plant's lookin' a bit thin? It's probably lackin' moisture. Water your spider plant every 7-10 days, but if you forget a watering session, it's no biggie! Give 'em a shower, dousing the soil and leafies, then plop 'em in a semi-sunny spot to drain. Keep it up, and you'll see those foliage dreams comin' true!
3. Give me space! 🎯
A lack of growin' room might be the issue for your thin spider plant. If roots are protrudin' from the drain holes or fillin' up the pot, it's ROTICAL (LOL, great word) to repot your plant. Grab a pot a smidgen larger than the current one and some new soil. For A+ results, try our trusty Ridge Indoor/Outdoor Planter. If you're fancy and love automation, add a TruDrop Flex self-waterin' insert to cut maintenance time in half!
Once repotted, cut off any damaged roots and plant that bad boy in its new home. You’ll see a considerable improvement in bushiness as the plant bounces back from the repotting.
4. Meet the in-beTwiIN-planting 🤯
If you're serious about a luscious spider plant, try interplanting! Snip off baby spiders or spiderettes (those cute little pups) from your plants. Wait until they grow some roots, soak those roots for a night and then, voilà! Place 'em in spots where you notice empty spaces in your plant.
Water regularly until the younger plants establish, and bam! Your spider plant will soon be the chunkiest one in your collection!
So there ya' have it! By pruning, implementing interplanting, watering, fertilizing, and repotting, you'll be on your way to a bushy, fabulous spider plant. Happy planting, my friends! 🌱💖✨
