Hey !! So my Spider plants tips were getting that browning crispy look right so I searched etc etc and it said it can be because I was using regular water to water them and not filtered water. However, I switched to filter water 3 weeks ago and it’s still getting it. Am I doing something wrong ?? And also one of the vines they produced with a baby spider on it turnt burn at a certain spot too.
Filtered water is thru a faucet or pitcher filter, or RO system, or bottled distilled water. Not to be confused with bottled spring water. I don’t know which you are using but just an FYI.

I’m not very knowledgeable, but I don’t think boiling water does anything for plants. It does not remove the lime—or probably anything, except bacteria, which makes the water potable for human consumption.

Mine does the same thing but the plant is still perfectly healthy! I wouldn’t worry about it too much. You could try and increase the humidity if it bothers you.
