spider plant questions - February 9th, 2006 at 07:12 AM
i recently bought a spider plant to replace the baby spider that did not make it Anyway, it has been producing babies and most of these babies I have sucessfully rooted, but my question is when I take the babie off the shoot am I suppose to cut the shoot off when there are no more babies on it? I have left it but they seem to be drying out and turning brown :p ( the shoots without babies on them)and when i cut the babies off should I cut off a piece of the shoot also are pull the baby off the at the shoot? Also i have about 3 nice size babies that will not root. They have been in water for weeks and the bottoms are black but no roots. Should I just toss those. others have rooted just fine except these 3 babies. I don't get it
