They also don't like some of the chemicals in tap water, sometimes it helps to let the water for this set out overnight

@yamh081108 I had this problem too. I added a drip stick for constant moisture and only use distilled water. It's been very happy ever since.

Iā€™m sure itā€™ll b fine like everyone said there either to wet or dry but Iā€™ve noticed yellow leaves when mine get to dry. They also like to be misted. I always try to read up on my plants but advice is always good too!

rain water not distilled. plants need minerals. keep evenly moist & leach pots to remove excess fert. salts

@moore.794 I never thought about the lack of minerals by using distilled water. I do feed my spider plant. Is that good enough. Besides rain water, what would you recommend.
