How often do you water the bird's nest fern?

1. Spring and Autumn

Bird's nest fern likes moisture and needs a certain amount of water to grow normally. The temperature in spring and autumn is relatively mild, maintaining around 25 degrees. At this time, the growth is very vigorous and the water demand is relatively high. During these two growing seasons, the frequency of watering is generally 3-5 days. However, due to different climate environments in different places, the water requirements are also different. The frequency of watering can be adjusted according to specific circumstances. In early spring and late autumn, when the temperature is relatively low, you can water the plants about once every 5 days.

2. Summer

The temperature is relatively high in summer and water evaporates quickly, so in order to avoid water shortage, the frequency of watering can be increased. The roots can be watered once every 1-2 days to ensure sufficient water replenishment and prevent the soil in the pot from becoming dry and white. In addition to watering the roots, you also need to water the leaves. Spraying water on the leaves with a small spray bottle every day can make the leaves shiny.

3. Winter

The climate in winter is relatively cold and the evaporation rate is relatively slow, so the frequency of watering needs to be reduced, and you can water once every 10 days. You can replace root watering with spraying water to avoid indoor dryness causing leaf curling.
