Question about light for house plants, please?

Is it true that spider plants ....both the plain green and the green %26amp; white striped varieties .... do better with filtered light, not direct sunlight?





And is that true of inch plants, too..?





My spider plants seem fine with a little sun in the morning, but I wonder if they would be better if I moved them ...





Thank you

Better with filtered light (outside, not direct). Don't put them in a south-facing window if you put them inside. Try East window.
Reply:Spider plants are one of the easiest plants to grow. They will tolerate just about anything. If it's doing well where it is, I'd say leave it there. I've had spider plants do TOO well, and they go crazy!
Reply:I actually have 2 spider plants in my home. They are both in 2 different west facing windows. One gets a lot of light in the afternoon and the other gets filtered light in the afternoon. Both are doing very well and putting off baby shoots. You can take those baby shoot off and plant a few in a different pot and watch them grow. . .see if they do better in a different window. . that way you don't have to move the bigger plant to a different window where it might not do well.
Reply:I don't know about inch plants, but my office at work has no windows, and gets no sunlight whatsoever. I have 5 spiderplants that have been doing fine under fluorescent lights for 8 years, as well as ivy, jade plants, aloe, and cacti.
Reply:They are both alright in all lights. The striped one will show more green in less light. In very dim light it may become all green for photosynthesis.





Try other options for fun.
Reply:Spider plants or airplane plants can do well in most light from partial to full. Idon't know about inch plants
