Can spider plants be repotted to your system?

I have been using your pots and LECA to successfully grow Pothos plants. I just inherited what I think is a spider plant. I do not like to grow indoor plants in soil. I’m wondering if I can convert the spider plant to your system successfully. Upon close inspection, this appears to be three plants inside of one pot it has been quite neglected. Thoughts? Suggestions?

That is great news! Thank you for the reply. Do I use KLN or food when I first start watering or just plain water?

Hi Shelia,

Spider plants love our system!

And the good news is they have strong roots that transfer from soil without problems.

I suggest separating the plants and transplanting them in individual pots to get started. Then, when they start maturing you can combine them into a larger pot to get a full, robust plant.

Plant slightly deeper that with soil for stability. Water to 1/2 on gauge right from the start. They should use up the water in 2 weeks or less.

Also, looks like the plant is drooping from lack of light. After transplanting give the new plants good bright light - but avoid direct sun.

I say "go for it!". This will work.
