UPDATE: I took her to a local plant shop for emergency advice lol They said she's normal 😆

Is this normal for spider plant roots??? There are multiple roots that are all bulbous and swollen like this.

Yes, it’s very normal, it looks really healthy! Spider plants have both fine roots and tuberous roots (the thick white ones). The latter store water - which is why spider plants are ok if you forget to water them!

Completely normal! You have nothing to worry about. Those are really healthy roots. 😃
