my spider plant has been yellowing & having droopy leaves. it’s frustrating because i’ve pretty much left it alone until now i’ve decided to repot it & trim some of the decaying leaves off. any advice on how to help my spider plant with the bending leaves?
I’m also having this problem after my cat ripped mine out of its pot and I had to replant it and put it up where he can’t eat it lol following!

I use a cactus mix with perlite and rain water on mine (or distilled) she is a spoiled brat but so adorable when she is doing well! If you already repotted her then use different water next time.
Okay cool! I’ll start collecting rain water & hopefully she will recover. & i’ll also change the soil to a better draining one like you said cactus or perlite. Are spider plants in the cactus family? or it’s just a better soil?
