The perfect video for me to watch this morning! Going to my partner’s bank he works at to take the many many babies their spider plant has produced!
Great stuff 👍
Thank you! My overburdened mother spiderplant is at last relieved of (most of) her forty babies. Once she's finished labouring she's due for a root trim, but before then I need to find thirty good homes for baby spiderplants. My friends are not gardeners and have long since stopped humouring my "gifts"... I might have to find a church doorstep to leave them on
Like it!
Wow I never have taken babies right to soil...always rooted in water first but this way is great....the roots grew so fast! Neat video thanks!
Thanks 😁 No need to worry about transitioning to soil too. Easy peasy
Surprised how well that’s grown in just a few weeks. I’ve got a spider plant at home with a few baby plants hanging off of it now so think it’s time to propogate! Great vid 👍
Well worth doing!
Thanks given these spider cuttings a try and works!! Growing beautiful 👍
Thank you so much I really really enjoyed watching you create these new plants from your Spider plant. They’re certainly very very healthy looking too. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
Looks really nice
Thanks!
Very handy knowledge, thanks. Love and Peace.
Nice 🌿
I loved that you used chopsticks to make the holes, I was wondering what fancy tool you are using until you mentioned it. Definitely something I will use in future .
No fancy tools round here 😅
@SheffieldMadePlants I love that, it makes it more relatable, and that's why I keep watching your videos.
Good 👍 video and spider 🌱 look good 😊
Cheers
Thank you for your video. I was doing it all wrong... I kept cutting the offshoots and putting them in water, and then they would not survive! Now I just planted a bunch in a new pot, can't wait to see how they do!
Glad I could help!
I love to watch all your videos . I have a spider plant with a lot of offspring .I’m going to plant them soon but what I need to know is when can I repot the mother plant I think there are two plants together and they’re getting big thanks so much margie
You can repot any time really
@@SheffieldMadePlants
Right after potting the baby plants, do you need to keep the soil moist for a couple of months until they grow more roots?
No more than a regular plant. You only really do that if propagating in water
they grow rather quickly, mine looked bad, i paid more attention & its lovely now.
They sure do!
One of the easiest plants i have ever had
Just give them filtered water when its soil completely dry out
Wisj I had seen this before I did mine. I had some in water and I planted in potting soul without perlite. I just moved them to pots last night. I checked on them this morning and they had not drooped over. I hope they will be ok.
Great video! I have a mandarin spider plant growing from seed. When should I transplant to a pot?
When there's a decent sized rootball
I like to start off in a small cup of water while still attached
How often do you water it & do I put it in the sun or indirect sun??? Great video. Thank you..
Indirect sun only. Just water when the soil dries.
Like many house plants, it likes to dry completely and then water thoroughly. I find that potting it in terra cotta ensures that it's dry enough for me to water every Monday.
He always says indirect sun & water only when soil is tested dry (rule of thumb)
Wow why did I never think of using a chopstick to make a hole?? I’ve been making things way more difficult for myself lol
Sometimes we miss the obvious things
I always start mine in soil
I love watching all your videos! I have two spider plants and I am doing something wrong because they are both just kinda doing nothing :( One is a Shamrock I think ( solid green) . I have had it for over a year and it is still the same size as when I got it. The other is a Hawaiian with around 9 plantlets on it but it also is not growing and the plantlets have node but no root growth at all, I got is about 7 months ago. Any ideals? I have a water meter like you have and I only water when they are dry. I have lots of other plants ( mostly Philodendrons) and they are all growing and doing great.
Thanks! A plant not growing is normally down to a lack of light. How much sun is it getting? Are you feeding them too? Are they rootbound?
@@SheffieldMadePlants The one with all the babies might be root bound, I can see some roots through the drain holes. The Shamrock is not at all root bound. I forgot to mention I water with bottled water and aquarium water. They are in an east window but I also have some plant lights on them. Will too much humidity cause it? They are on a shelf above two 30 gallon aquariums so lots of moisture in the room.
@@redjar9166 humidity shouldn’t be an issue
@@SheffieldMadePlants Thank you so much for your help, I will repot the root bound one and try moving the shamrock. And I will watch all your videos about spider plants. Happy new year from Oklahoma!
@@redjar9166 happy new year
thanks for that...wondering what potting soil you used for this.....sorry if you've already addressed this in other vids...TIA
Compost and perlite 70/30
cheers...and thank you

Hi I just bought a AIRPLANE SPIDER PLANT IM ASSUMING ALL THIS INFORMATION IS FOR THAT ONE TOO. I LOVE THEM BUT BEFORE I GET BROWN TIPS. SO IM HERE TO LEARN
Yep it applies to that variety
I just got a new spider plant. I named her Mary Jane Parker. 🙂
😁😁
My spider pplant i dying and i dont know why. I also tried to propagate the off shoot but it didnt thrive.
My SP babies snapped off while I was moving her, and I like them hanging down below the plant. Would they survive if I put the long stems back into the soil?
I think the long stems will die unfortunately
@@SheffieldMadePlants Thank you.
What could be the possible reasons the plant cutting dries up upon propagation?
What’s it in?
Pot
@@anmolxsharma maybe the soil dried out?
Can I ask what the mix of soil that I should use. Thanks.
I use compost mixed with perlite
Thank you.
can I put the baby plants in only water as well?
Yep 👍
How can my spider plant have more babies, mine has a lot of leaves already but no baby plants yet
It comes with age and giving the plant the right light and water. They will come
Can you please let me know the soil that you are using. Thanks
5 parts garden compost to 2 parts perlite
I watched this twice in a row.🤣
The algorithm thanks you 😂
HELP. Last night I was moving my carpet and my plant stand was on it. Well it fell over. And my beautiful spider plant(I just watered) fell from the top of my stand. I lost a two shoots and she isn’t looking very spunky right now. Meaning the leaves aren’t as perky. What do I do?? Would I cut off another shoot. Will this help her to be happy again? I’m so upset. Can’t believe I did that!!😢
Oh no what a disaster! I’d probably cut away anything broken and wait for new growth to come
@@SheffieldMadePlants thank you. Cross your fingers.
I have one I planted the same way from spiderettes a friend gave me. After 4 years, still no baby spiders. Other wise it is healthy.
Is it in lots of light?
@@SheffieldMadePlants it was in a bay window for a long time with nothing. Direct sun in the morning for a few hours. I moved it a little further in earlier this year because I was seeing brown tips and started giving it distilled water. It now gets moderate indirect plus a grow light in a fixture about a meter away. I just bought a light meter and will see what that tells me about the level.
How do you get the plant to make a baby shoot??
Lots of light and patience
I would like to emphasise that there is absolutely no reason to "test" for root growth on the babies. All you're doing is stressing the plant, especially if it's not very well established yet. As long as they look green and healthy, just trust that roots are happening and leave them alone. If roots weren't happening they'd be dying off, so as long as they're looking happy just leave them to get on with it. Better to keep an eye out for new growth as that is a sure sign of roots. Without roots and without the connection to the mother plant it won't be able to sustain life, let alone put out new growth, so if you spot a new leaf it's safe to go celebrate the healthy, happy roots without ever yanking on the plant 💚
Funny story: I had a couple spider plants years ago. When I moved several states away, I couldn’t take them with me, so my parents put them in their living room-which didn’t get a lot of traffic. These were nice, healthy spider plants. So healthy, they made baby plants…which then rooted IN THE CARPET. I had no idea that was possible. My mom, definitely not a houseplant person but determined to take good care of my plants, also had no idea in advance.
Well…that room was overdue for a new carpet anyway. Right? 😂🪴
Moral of the story: if you don’t want more spider plants, trim and toss the babies before they reach the ground.
Wow didn’t know they could do that 😂
Mine had old babies they have alot of stubby roots. Is t too late to hope theyll grow?
They should still grow with enough patience 👍
A lot of stubby roots are actually a good thing on the babies. The ones you should worry about are the ones accidentally (or impatiently) broken off before they even have tiny little nubs. They'll most likely be fine, spiders generally have an almost unrivalled vitality, but they do have the highest risk of dying before rooting properly. If it's due to impatience because you want new plants don't break them off before sticking them in soil. Like with propagating strawberry plants, leaving the "umbilical cord" intact ensures great results even with very immature babies.
