What’s going on with my spider plant and what should I do?


I repotted this plant in May, after which, every single one of the leaves died, leaving only some stubs and the roots. After placing it outside, the leaves quickly started to grow back, but now they are curly….they were not before. It’s also shooting off tons of spiderettes, but none are growing very large. The leaves also seemed to stop growing longer, it’s just sprouting tons of curly new growth.

    More info: After all of the leaves died, I put the plant outside. It gets indirect light all day until mid/late afternoon, where it gets direct sunlight until sunset. Depending on rain, I water every week or so, when the soil is dried through. The pot does have drainage

    They’re called pups and they’re just babys. If you want them gone you can snip them off and propagate!
