Chlorophytum (Spider Plant) : Yellow Leaves (Chlorosis)
The Chlorophytum (Spider Plant) has huge tuberous roots that coil at the bottom of the pot. If it pales, yellows overall, and loses its green/white contrast, it's often a sign of a rootbound pot or lack of light.
1. Specific Causes for Chlorophytum comosum
- !Roots having totally filled the pot (asphyxiation or nutrient depletion).
- !Glaring lack of natural lighting making the plant very pale.
2. Immediate Care Protocol
Check the bottom of the pot: if the large white roots are pushing out forcefully, repot into a larger size.
Move the plant closer to indirect light.
Repot the Chlorophytum every year in spring, its root growth is lightning fast.
