Ferns are common plants in our lives. They often grow in cool and humid places. They have strange and colorful shapes and are grown by many people. So how do you care for ferns? Let’s learn more about it below. 1. Lighting Ferns are shade-tolerant and can be placed in a well-lit area indoors. An overly dark environment is not conducive to the survival of ferns. If ferns are given two or three hours of diffuse light every day, their leaves will be green and they will grow faster. 2. Temperature Ferns are relatively afraid of cold, and the minimum temperature should be maintained above 5 degrees. They can basically survive the winter safely. If ferns are grown outdoors all year round, the minimum temperature should also be maintained above zero degrees. Ferns are extremely afraid of cold. If the maintenance temperature is kept above 5 degrees, they can basically remain green all year round. If the temperature is below 0 degrees, frostbite will definitely occur. 3. Watering Ferns like water. If you find the surface of the soil in the pot is dry, you should water the plant to keep the soil moist. You can usually spray the plant with water mist to increase the humidity of the surrounding environment. If you grow ferns at home, you must provide a humid environment for them and try to keep the indoor humidity above 50%. The higher the humidity in the air, the better the ferns will grow. 4. Ventilation Since ferns live in a humid environment, they need to be ventilated frequently. Poor ventilation will cause bacteria to easily grow on the plants, thus affecting their growth. 5. Fertilization Ferns are generally top-dressed with diluted peanut meal extract or an appropriately formulated fertilizer solution, about once every 10 months. 6. Pest and disease control When growing ferns, you should pay attention to the prevention and control of aphids, powdery mildew and rust. You can dilute some thiophanate-methyl and spray it.
