Some of the following tips may be able to help you in caring for and propagating spider plants. The best time to propagate spider plants is during spring and summer. Because in this season they enter the growing season.
You can grow them in any method, but not by growing from leaf cuttings. When growing indoors, these warm-weather perennials love warm temperatures and humid air. They do not tolerate temperatures below 50 F.
Spider plants require regular watering, preferring moist but not soggy soil water at least once a week. Just less watering during the late fall or winter. They also prefer light shade or bright, indirect light.
Water method

For the method of water propagation, you must first prepare a clean jar or container. Then fill the jar with water.
In addition to preparing jars, you can start collecting cuttings of spider plants. And once collected, put the cutting into the jar. Place it in the indirect sunlight area and wait for the roots of the cuttings to appear.
