Does anyone know what might be wrong with my spider plant? She has seemed healthy up to this point. Any advice would be appreciated! 😊

It’s overwatering the water too much water damages the leaves

Thank you for the info!

Let the soil completely dry out between waterings. Reduce the pot size if the soil is slow to dry. A pot this size should dry out its soil in about 5 days or less to keep the roots from rotting.

The alternative is to add 2-3 more plants to the pot. They will help dry out the soil and make the pot look fuller. There are about 20 plants in an 8” pot in my photo. I watered every day in summer while I had it.

Thank you for the advice! I’m thinking of repotting her since the one she came in doesn’t have drainage. I’m hoping that will help
