# Spider plant needs help! It looks even more floppy and anemic now.…

Spider plant needs help! It looks even more floppy and anemic now. This plant was adopted from a colleague who left and it lives on a ship. It has a grow light now, which it didn’t have before. Was given a slight sprinkle of fertilizer recently.

Is this overwatered? Underwatered? Too much light?

Have you repotted lately? I’d check the roots and pop it in one of these! All my spider plants live in one. Can get them at Walmart for super cheap! Just put water in the bottom of the plastic container up to the lip at the bottom and set the terracotta pot right in there. The plant will only take water that it needs and I only refill the plastic container 2 days after I notice the entirety of the terracotta pot is dry (2 days since there could be water in the soil still)  
Hope this helps!! :)
