    Mine get brown tip because I usually forget to water it until I see the leaves are droopy. As badly as I treat it, still keep shooting up new fronds all the time. One of the most easy fern to glow!

    Thank you! I have my birdsnest in a terrarium and it's almost 130 cm across it got some deformed leaves that are ripping with some brown parts. I never thought it might be because it gets too much light, even though it makes sense. I'll try lowering the light it gets!

    Thanks for ur video. I am new to fern care...I think I watered too much especially leaves with spray bottle, also when temp elevated, think placement was too much light, do I moved her to cooler part of house less light. I will also keep water schedule and try filtered water and bottom water. Hoping my fern will bounce back...

It always has new fronds in the crown yet, never gets any fuller or bigger. Why us this? I have changed the potting media ect and nothing. HELP! I have the pot just one size bigger than the root ball

    Thank you! I moved my fern from a shaded corner of a room, closer to my grow light because someone in your comments from your last video suggested it. Ferns are very tricky, not an easy plant to grow, at all. I am going to move it back to the shade. Stop plant food, since we’re into the Fall (I live in the USA/ New York). And I am going to invest in that humidity temp gage. That will come in handy. đŸ‘đŸœ

    Thank you for this video. I think mine is a combination, I think the chlorine in my tap water is too high, so I’ll try using filtered water, and move it away from the window as well. my dad has a bunch of these, I swear he fertilizes so much and they are thriving! we shall see.

    Hi I bought this fern last week and it was doing well. I’ve now noticed some brown spots on one of the leaves, dark brown tips on some leaves and general browning on the edges of some leaves
 I’m most worried about the brown spots. I have my plant in indirect light , and haven’t watered it yet, as the soil is still quite moist. Could you offer any advice pls? I’ve got some photos which I can send you on insta if you have an account
 thanks so much

Also it was a few dry tiny spots on the leaves and it hasn't produced any leaves since I got it maybe a month and a half ago. I repotted it when I got it but I used a pot that almost wasn't bigger than its original pot... It had a lot of roots in a tight ball when I repotted it but I didn't touch them... Any tips?

    Now that I see this video, I notice my birds nest fern has barely any roots in comparison. It seems to be “ok” but it’s not growing at all. I have it in a self watering container and now I’m afraid it might be too much for it? It did give me brown leaves but lately the browning stopped, however she doesn’t grow at all. It’s as if its “hanging there” but not thriving.
