Snake plants are prone to root rot if they receive too much water. Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings to prevent this issue.
Without proper drainage, excess water can cause root rot. Ensure your pot has drainage holes and use a well-draining soil mix.
Although snake plants tolerate low light, they thrive in bright, indirect light. Insufficient light can lead to slow growth and weak plants.
Pests like spider mites and mealybugs can damage snake plants. Regularly check for pests and treat infestations promptly with appropriate remedies.
Snake plants are sensitive to extreme temperatures and do not tolerate frost. Keep them in a temperature range of 60-75°F (15-24°C) for best results.
If ingested, snake plants can cause nausea and vomiting in pets. Keep them out of reach or choose pet-safe alternatives if needed.
Snake plants grow slowly, influenced by their environment. Be patient and provide consistent care to maximize their growth potential.
