How to grow ferns in summer

1. Maintenance methods

1. Watering time: Many plants need a lot of water in summer, and ferns are the same, but watering should never be done when the temperature is high and the sunlight is strong. Watering at this time will damage its stomata and affect its normal growth. Watering can be done in the morning or afternoon when the temperature is lower.

2. Light control: The temperature in summer is too high, the sun is very strong, and plants are afraid of heat and sun. So at this time, try to move it to a cooler place for cultivation. You can give it light in the morning when the sun is not very strong or in the afternoon when the temperature is a little milder.

3. Suitable humidity: This type of plant grows well in a humid environment, which is generally not achievable in home cultivation. Usually we can increase the air humidity by spraying around the plant.

2. Prevention and control of diseases and insect pests

Summer is the peak season for diseases and insect pests, and aphids and thrips are the most harmful pests to ferns, causing them to develop rot disease. The most obvious symptoms are leaf cracks, clear spots or brown spots. In fact, these are very easy to find, so observe carefully and take prevention and control measures as early as possible.
