So can anyone tell me why my spider plant which is still actively growing went from bright green to this light color. If you click the plant you can see the difference

I’m sorry I don’t have an answer. It could be the light? I find them hardy but fickle plants. I have just replanted mine - putting two into one larger pot. It’s outside undercover and seems to be ok cross fingers 🤞

You should check the roots. I could need a bigger pot

### Miranda commented on 2026-03-26

I just potted it in this pot a few months ago. It’s a decent size pot. I don’t think it’s the pot

I had this happen to mine. I think it had too much sun. I moved it to a different location with less sun and it went back after two days.

It barely got any light so weird. I’ve moved it so we will see

### T Worthen commented on 2026-03-27

Weird. Then I’m not sure.

### Miranda commented on 2026-03-28

I put it under a grow light and it’s 100% back to normal. No idea!
