I don’t think so they look great to me.

I think their containers might just be too big!

#### keira antwoordde op 2025-07-30

i have two spider plants in each container but i didn’t have any smaller pots so i hope that works for now

It should be fine just make sure you’re monitoring how dry they’re getting before you water decide to water, make sure they’re actually ready for more water before you soak ‘em. The issue with pots that are too big is that there’s excess soil that holds more moisture than the roots can soak up, thus not drying out and leading to root suffocation and rot. All that being said, it’s just something you wanna keep an eye out for to avoid watering your plant too frequently.

What Victoria Maddison said! If you follow her directions you should be fine. I'm guessing Planta thought they were sparse because of container size but they do look healthy.

Looks better than mine. Mine completely died last night. I have no idea but it died in literally 5 days

#### keira antwoordde op 2025-07-30

#### Ellie antwoordde op 2025-07-30

Lucky 😂 mine survived 10 years of neglect and then died when I actually started trying to keep it alive 😭 I’m having a funeral for it today

Put all the plants in one pot. They like a tight pot. My spider plant had many plants in an 8” pot as shown in the photo.

Don’t water until the soil completely dries out. The roots are thick and hold water very well. 🪴🍀
