Spider plants?

I have always loved the look of spider plants... this week my mother came to visit and brought me a small spider plant that already has babys. my question is how offen should I water it and other hint on careing for it.

Spider plants?
The Spider plant is an easy care type of houseplant. You should use the finger method for water (Noooo not that finger). Use your pointing finger to check the soil. If it is moist good because it likes moist soil but not sopping wet.



Likes bright indirect sunlight. Can be taken outdoors during the spring, summer and fall months.



It is very easy to propagate...take baby cuttings and put in good potting soil water and whala you have another spider plant.
Reply:I water mine once a week. they look best displayed in a hanging pot. I think they do better the more sun they get.
Reply:stick your finger in the soil. aIf it feels dry, water it. Spider plants have babies by being root bound.
Reply:I have three spider plants and one says on the label to water 3 times a week. However, I tend to forget about them until they start losing a little color and look a bit droopy. They are amazingly hardy and still do well, but I find the more I water my variegated one, the more babies it has, and actually flowers where the other ones don't.
