I love wild & wacky Spider Plants & love them even more when they produce lots of babies. This is 1 way to get more Spider Plant babies, which is all about the pot size & repotting.

It’s hanging outside right near the front door but the grow pot just wasn’t knocking my socks off. It really has sent a lot more babies in the 2 months that I’ve lived here but I wanted a jazzier decorative pot to put it into. Spider Plants can go rather limp & stop producing babies if the conditions aren’t to their liking. Besides lots of light, they also prefer warm temperatures to bring on that flowering which subsequently turns into the babies. You’ll find that your Spider Plant won’t begin to set blooms in the cooler months with less natural light. Another way to get them to produce those blooms & babies, which is the subject of this video, is to keep them tight in their pots. I’m not talking potbound for 10 years but comfortably tight, sort of like those jeans which fit like a glove but you can still move & groove in them. Finding decorative hanging containers is always a challenge for me but I found these pots which I really like a lot – the lines are simple, they’re lightweight & the color selection is varied. The variety of spray paints is so extensive now that if a color doesn’t appeal to you, then spray it! Just remember, don’t rush to repot your Spider Plant & don’t give it too big a home base to grow into. Mine is happy & so am I every time I look at it!
