    Hi, I'm your new subscriber. Such informative videos you make. I really learn a lot from you.
    I'm planning get an asparagus fern, fox tail fern or "Victorian" birds nest fern for my mum's bedroom. There're only two low light spot that I think I can place them for her.
    One is near an east-facing cealed window where it's glass has a slight blue colour tone which fairly reduces the amount of sunlight that comes in.
    It gives medium to low light between 7am and 12pm or 2pm. After that time, it gives low light.
    Similarly with the second option where I plan to have the fern hung on a double bed with the plant facing an east window that does open and give a good medium to low light thorough out the room. This location receives more light during the early hours than the first location, but it receives relatively lesser low light after 3pm.
    Both locations receive a good ventilation once the windows are opened.
    Will those three types of ferns that I mentioned be fine in those two locations?
    Any advice is appreciated

    Thanks a lot for your detailed video 🌻. I have a Boston fern, growing in a birght place.. Everything seems to be good, light, soil, humidity. Even the soil is a mixture of Cocopeat and Compost. The problem is that every time I water the plant, it takes 5 to 6 days only for the surface of the soil to get a little dry.. It's summer now and it shouldn't be taking this long. I see people water it 2 to 3 times a week.. any suggestions?
    I'll appreciate it in advance

So if ever my plant dies, I have a backup and can get it back from those I gave it to! :D But years have passed and the plant is still doing well by Gods grace.

    Greetings, I live in a dry climate and recently purchased a healthy green (Boston Fern) indoor plant from Amazon. I enjoyed learning from (you), how to properly care for this lovely plants. If I observe a tip of a fern frond branch change color, or shrink from dehydration, may I snip off the very top of frond branch. And if so, will the thin frond branch re-grow again? Thank you, 🙋‍♂️ Dennis (Sun 7.26.20)

    • @GeeksofGreen
      @GeeksofGreen  Před 4 lety +3

      Nilesh I'm glad the video helped you! If you are talking about spider mites then increase the humidity around your plant and water them regularly. Plants that are left to dry up too much are susceptible to pests. If you are talking about spiders then they wont damage your plants but eat up pests that might harm it.
