Hi everyone. No pictures today but I am having such a hard time keeping up with my spider plant! It gets to easily root bound, then repot it into a bigger pot and a few weeks later it’s root bound again! The way o can tell that’s its root bound is that it need water ever other day to every 3rd day. Oh and not to mention the amount of babies it’s growing!  
How does everyone else keep up with their spider plant?

My cat. She eats off the leaves and then pukes them on the floor. Sometimes she just rips them off for funsies.

Too bad I’m allergic to cats!
