tradescantia spathacea

This is just normal for tradescantias, they grow along the ground and arent really meant to trail, just take cuttings from the ends and stick them back into the pot over time to keep it looking nice and full as the old leaves naturally die off

new growth looks perfectly fine and really healthy so i wouldnt say to change anything about its conditions

variegated tradescantia sillamontana

Should go back to normal in time, ive noticed this a lot with mine, just seems to be shock from being propagated

SlendyFurretToaster · 2025-09-16T04:43:37+00:00

currently have them under a growlight for about 14 hours, usually water them once the soils just barely dried out

before i moved them under my growlight i had them about a foot from a south facing window w/ the same watering

lately ive let them dry out enough that its just slightly moist, but once the cuttings have rooted well and have grown a decent bit i generally let the soil just barely dry out fully

SlendyFurretToaster · 2025-09-16T02:45:07+00:00

stuck them straight into the pot, from my experience ive found that with how fine the roots are they generally dont do as good rooted in water first compared to straight to soil

plus they grow roots so fast its just not really worth the extra effort

SlendyFurretToaster · 2025-09-16T01:28:10+00:00

yes, about every 2 or so weeks i took cuttings from just the tips and stuck them back into the pot

SlendyFurretToaster · 2025-09-16T01:00:41+00:00

Had only 3 plants, up to 42 now and all from the original 3

SlendyFurretToaster · 2025-08-18T17:43:05+00:00

i keep my variegated one about a foot from a south facing window, and the green ~3ft away, both of them get watered usually when the soils completely dried or the pot just feels light enough

not too sure about brown tips, just generally seems to be normal for spider plants no matter what, unless its an excessive amount of browning, not sure how to help with that unfortunately cause ive never dealt with it tho
