    1. Hey Judy,
      Watering a snake plant from the bottom is perfectly fine and can be beneficial as it encourages the roots to grow downward and helps prevent overwatering. Just make sure the plant is able to absorb the water it needs and that the pot is allowed to drain any excess to avoid waterlogging.

    1. Hey tony,
      Yes, snake plants are great for bedrooms! They improve air quality by converting CO2 to oxygen at night and are low-maintenance, thriving in low light conditions.

  1. I have several snake plants that are falling over in the soil. I have to prop them up with rocks. What should I do? I made the soil mixture recommended for succulents.

    1. Falling snake plants may indicate they need a deeper pot or more stable soil. Ensure the pot is deep enough to support their height and consider adding a bit more soil around the base for stability. Avoid overwatering, as this can weaken the roots.

  2. I must have the weirdest snake plant ever! The plants were not doing well in the pot and several died. One had worked its way out of the soil (well draining succulent mix) so out if desperation i put it in a narrow necked vase in water. Since then it is thriving and growing like crazy. Should i switch to hydroponics for the rest of the plants in the pot?

    1. Not weird at all—some snake plants really thrive in water! If your plant is happy in the vase, you can definitely try moving the others to water as well. Just make sure to keep the water clean and change it every couple of weeks. Hydroponics can be a great option for snake plants, especially if they’re struggling in soil.
