Hello! I was gifted this spider plant. Wondering when I should clip it if it needs it at all? I was told by the previous owner to trim it down but I want to be sure this is needed.

    from what i know, you do not need to trim spider plants, but you can probably cut the stem that flowers + babies grow from if you want

    there’s no need to trim it if you don’t want to. i prune old leaves off as they die, and sometimes trim the roots when repotting, but other than that i just let them grow wild! like mushroom said you can trim the runner if you like, once the baby on the end grows some roots, and use that to grow a new spider plant. when i do this i cut just past the next node on the vine and another snip by the base of the baby plant

    No trimming required! Looks good.
