Hi Dale @OptimalCacto 👋 It looks like the spike to those babies was damaged. Could have happened during the repot, but it looks to me like it might have rotted here where I circled. The babies on that spike are drying out because they are no longer connected to their parent plant, and cannot get water on their own, since they’re dangling in the air. If you want to save them, I think it would be best to chop that whole spike off, and either plant or propagate those babies.

What’s your watering routine like for this spider plant? And what kind of light do you have them in?
