I got this snake plant from ikea a while ago. The budding part was much smaller then. I repotted it a few months ago since it really needed it. Anyway, I’m noticing now that the budding part is getting bigger while the rest of the plant is staying the same size. I water it about every two weeks. I have it on my back patio which is south facing. It gets a direct morning light for a few hours before being indirect light for the rest of the day. I use a mixed potting of just regular soil and some perlite, and coco coir for drainage. What do you recommend I do about this. I’m worried it’s gonna start tipping over lol

The original plant itself was a propagation, which can sometimes remain close to the same size as when it was propagated, but put out new growth/pups that grow more vigorously. Nothing you’re doing wrong
It’s growing!
It’s giving this
Its looks that the plant just wants more light and space
Can’t fit into the pot…they have offshoot that run and new plant grows…finds a spot where growth is possible like a strawberry plant for example
That’s the way they grow, enjoy watching em shoot out everywhere. A hanging basket would make it look even cooler.
