Buy a pot of the fern you like. Remove the fern from the pot. If it's large, use a shovel. If it's small use a knife. Divide the root ball into multiple pieces and repot. I do this every spring with Boston ferns. Most people probably don't need thousands of ferns. This method has always worked well for me. This episode was very interesting though.

I tried this with my one and only Boston fern and they both died😢, I will try again one day!!
@shinypenny4443 жыл бұрын
I do similar. I bought a $10 large boston fern several years ago. Split it in thirds - 1/3 to a friend; 1/3 to my back deck on a hanger; 1/3 remains in the house as a houseplant. The outdoor ones grow huge all summer and fall. Survives light frosts. By next spring the houseplant one is ready to be divided again... rinse and repeat... The houseplant one is an an east window and I feed it monthly and keep it on pebble tray with water and mist occasionally.

@@aida087 *_"and they both died"_* You most likely put them in a pot that was too big, when you should have picked a pot that was smaller than your original pot. As a result there was way too much soil, so when you watered the soil, most of the water wasn't take in by the fern, and you created large areas on the pot that stay wet too long, which will cause all kind of complications. Secondly, it's not wise to use a tool to separate them that was not cleaned with alcohol.

@@MichaelDomer Thank you for your input. I put them in the right size pot, right lighting, I always clean my gardening tools before using but it was the lack of humidity that killed them!! Currently, I have a Maidenhair Fern which I've had for 3 years and it's doing beautifully because I keep it in my indoor greenhouse!! I water her at least twice a week and must her every other day!! And every time I water her new little fronds pop up, she's an amazing plant!! I will definitely try again with a Boston Fern!!❤️🥰🙏🏼
@MichaelDomer Жыл бұрын
@@aida087 It's impossible in to kill a Boston fern indoors by low humidity, not even after propagation, when you've done everything right, and you don't even need a humidifier, manual misting or a water tray. Something else killed them.

I just bought a maiden hair and I'm looking up what ferns withstand a little sun because I know maiden hairs don't like sun. These brown spots on the leaves made me think I was killing it on my patio and then I find this stating those spots are how the plant reproduces lol. How funny.

I could not believe what I saw in my 1st son's Standard 4 BM textbook. Whatever page. About plant booster. So called. As a special special invitation for langau = flies; the fertilization agent. Moths or butterflies or bees or any other normal insects would never come for such a decay smell! The 2 eggs + 1 bottle of milk culture; both are marinated = perap for 2 days for special gas. The language textbook. Not science one. Some eager kids would experiment it.
