Division time of Staghorn fernThe best time to divide Staghorn fern is early spring. At this time, the ground has just thawed and the temperature is suitable. The growth of Staghorn fern is relatively vigorous. It is a good time for division. At this time, the wounds left by the division are easy to heal and the roots grow more vigorously, which increases the survival rate of Staghorn fern after division.Specific steps for dividing Staghorn fernFirst, knock the mother plant out of the pot, remove some excess soil, and trim the withered and necrotic branches. The roots of the Staghorn fern should also be pruned to remove those fibrous roots that are too long and dense. Then use a knife to cut it into two or three plants. If the Staghorn fern is very large, you can also divide it into four or five plants. You have to learn to be flexible and do it according to the situation. In addition, please make sure that some soil is left at the roots of each plant so that it will be easier for them to survive. Plant the divided Staghorn ferns as individuals in pots, and keep the soil in the pots loose, breathable and containing sufficient nutrients.Maintenance of Staghorn Fern after DivisionAfter planting, the Staghorn fern must first be watered sufficiently, then placed in a cool and humid environment for maintenance, and watered and fertilized regularly. The watering cycle is irregular, two to three times a day in summer, and the amount can be reduced appropriately in winter. The fertilization cycle is generally once half a month. With careful maintenance, it will take root in three to four weeks under normal circumstances. |
