Spider plants can be whitish and their leaves softening due to a number of reasons, and here are some suggestions that will hopefully help you save your plant:
Lighting:Spider plants are suitable for semi-shady to shady environments, and excessive exposure to the sun will cause the leaves to turn white. Move the spider plant to a softer light, away from direct sunlight.
Moisture:Spider plants do not like too much water, watering should be moderate, keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Whitish leaves can also be due to damage to the root system due to overwatering.
Humidity:Spider plants do not require much humidity, but if the air is too dry, the ambient humidity can be moderately increased by spraying water, using a humidifier, or placing a water tray near the plant.
Soil:Make sure to use well-drained soil and avoid it being too wet. Perlite, vermiculite, etc. can be added to the original soil to increase aeration.
Fertilizer:Spider plants should be fertilized in moderation during the growing season, but not over-fertilization. You can choose a plant-specific balanced fertilizer and apply it according to the instructions on the package.
Pests and diseases:Check the plants for pests and diseases. If so, take appropriate measures in a timely manner, using plant-safe pesticides or washing leaves.
Acclimatization period:Plants may need a period of adaptation to the new environment and avoid frequent plant movements.
If the leaves of the spider plant have turned white and softened, it means that the plant has been affected to a certain extent. You can try to adjust the above conditions and observe how the plants react. If the situation does not improve, more specialized care or adjustment time may be needed.
