I would pull it out of the pot, check for rot step 1. That pot maybe too big for it. It might be getting too much direct light. How often do you water it? It might be a good candidate for some water therapy-soak it in water for a day or 2. If the roots are bad you may even cut them off and restart new healthy roots in water. Hard to know until it comes out of the pot. But I think there is hope! 💚
@KikiGoldblatt I’ve taken him out and roots look like this, they don’t smell but really soft to touch.
@userbff10f50 the roots look good. I would, if you can, get a pot that has drainage and one that’s a bit smaller to. I would get a 5 inch or so pot for it. Right now it’s in too big of a pot.
If it appears droopy, perhaps with some browning leaf tips, and has been sitting in bright direct sun, try giving it a deep soak for several minutes and then relocate it to a cooler, shadier spot.
If it is wilting somewhere in full shade or far away from a window, then move it to a spot that gets more light.
How Much Light Is It Getting?
Sometimes they will wilt because they are failing to get the correct amount of sunlight.
Perhaps you set a pot in the perfect position in a window during the summer, but when winter comes around, that window no longer receives much light at all.
You may find it necessary to move the container to a different location as the seasons change.
Just make sure you continue to situate the pots in bright, indirect sunlight.
While spider plants do enjoy soaking up some sun, too much direct sunlight can cause the foliage to overheat and burn at the tips.
I would move it from direct sunlight because it will bleach the leaves and burn them. Move it to where it can get bright indirect sunlight.

@userbff10f50 💯 % what @KikiGoldblatt said 😊 the roots look great from what I can see! If u see black smushy ones that we can’t see in that pic then I’d cut those off but the ones in the pic look great!
@KikiGoldblatt thank you for your help. It’s like having a sick child. I will repot it now and hope for the best. Thank you so much for your time 💚
@userbff10f50 you are so very welcome! Happy growing!
