I'm "cloning" spider plants in science class. Do they need any specific amount of water or soil or anything?

Heres how to clone and care for a spider plant:



1. Cut off one of the shoots form the main plant (The look like small little spiders)



2. Place the bottom (Where you made the cut) within a jar of water.



3. Leave it in the water (put clean water in each day), and you should see roots within a week or so.



4. Let the roots grow until they are about 1/2 inch long, then you can pot the plant.
