All I did was pull it out of 1 pot and put it in another pot, I didn't mess with the roots or soil or anything, just changed the pot. Before it was standing up and cascading over so pretty but it immediately started drooping the moment I changed pots.
I don't know what I did wrong? Will it stand back up eventually? Thx

Give it time and a little less light for a while. It will recover.
Hang it in a place where it gets light. If possible outside.
Less light??
It will be fine. Plants in nature arent usually completely uprooted and then replanted, so the plant is stressed right now. It should bounce back within a week or two.
Spider plants can get a bit dramatic right after being moved, even if the roots weren’t messed with much. Give it a good drink and a day or two to settle, they usually perk back up once the roots re-grip the soil 😅
Yeah that’s totally normal, especially for plants like this one. It’ll bounce back in no time. That happened with my last urban stems plant. It got too big for the pot it came in so I moved it to a bigger one and it was droopy withn an hour. I panicked but after about two days it was thriving again. I think the plant just needs time to be like OK, I’M OK!
