My ferngame took a big turn after I started putting them in underwatering pots. I tried to grow them when I was younger and gave up for a long time, because they always died. But now this guy in an underwatering pot is going on three years and it's as happy as it can be. I've split it to four more ferns the last time it got this big, all the baby Bobs are also doing well.
Also acidic soil is key and not messing with it much, not much fertilizing either. It's very self-sustaining when it gets going, makes a lot of aerial roots and babies too. The winter air here is dry, but it doesn't get crisp as long as it has water in the pot, no crispy ends.
Thanks for the advice! We actually have a spare underwater pot from when we repotted the pothos I’d love to put a fern in there.
